Protoculture’s back with a new video - and this time, he’s checking out ways to help build tension in our tracks.
We look at the classic ways of achieving this before diving into more subtle ways to keep the track interesting and moving. Utilizing gradual synced LFO curves applied to our sounds, we can constantly build and reset the tension over several bars.
These can be assigned to anything from pitch modulation to effects and even duplicated and inverted to fade in and out to create a constant Shepard Tone effect.
Packed with super useful techniques to help build that anticipation your listeners crave!
Hi Nate. Do you have the new Keylab mk3 Keyboard? How is it compared to the NI Komplete 61? I’m thinking about selling it, because I’m not so happy with the keyboard’s velocity response. Is it better?
I totally agree. The song is fire as all the songs from Protoculture especially the latest ones released on Marula Music. The sound and especially the atmospheres are amazing. I hope that I can release one of my progressive trance songs one day on that label.
Sorry for the slow response… yep, MK3. I really like it. Enough that I’m getting rid of the Komplete S61 Mk2. I think the keybed is much better and there is enough tweakability that you can dial the velocity sensitivity in to your liking.
