Funtcase - Computer Music Masterclass

[grime suspect]

wow maybe u lot shud do a master class in being ungrateful stnuc lol

[rinseballs21]

lol if i learned anything in this video, i know now im never going to use reason



but seriously, funtcase is a bad boy producer, you have to understand that he has barely been making dubstep for like a year and half, he said so on a radio interview he did which was on his myspace. but other than that he obviously has talent and knows what he is doing. i don't know about everyone else, but being an amateur producer myself, I am more interested in how a more well known artist actually works rather than the intricate details of how they make their sounds, work flow honestly does effect your final product believe it or not. the whole fun of producing imo is learning how to make the dopest sounds on my own, learning how to eq on my own, and how to properly apply effects ON MY OWN, and so on and so forth.

HAVING A PRODUCER JUST GIVE YOU ALL THE ANSWERS WOULD MAKE PRODUCING REALLY BORING.

if anything the only tip i honestly would love to get from a big name producer is more on effective layering for all sounds, especially mid range, but even that i love learning and failing at on my own

[narrator]

People be making jokes, banter and the like. well i know i was.
obviously they're not gonna give away their super special wink wink nudge nudge secrets but there are some of those videos (not this one in particular) that are not worth the price of the magazine (King Charles).

[funtcase]

its all gravy. i spent ages teaching myself everything, now i get abused coz i wont feed this load of gay ends crucial info with a silver spoon...lolocast mclollington

[narrator]

How do i makez teh Wobblez??

[Mannyyyyy]

funtcase can i live with you and you teach me how to be like you

[CBK81]

Just ignore the haters, there are plenty of people who enjoy your tunes.

I find it fascinating that all the producers who do these tutorials (reso masterclass aside) have a knack for showing every part of their setup/tunes bar any actual useful information or insight.

thats because we dont want to give away too much. i was actually only asked to show what i did and not give away too many secrets. i did give my insight on drums imaging to a real perspective and some frequency aspects.

damn im fed up of explaining this lol

I personally respect Funtcase largely and he should be nothing less than proud of his accomplishments recently,

However I do not understand the hoarding of any techniques, don't you want all music to sound good?
It always comes off as insecure if you feel the need to hide a technique to make you sound unique, isn't that the opposite point of what music is about?

wrong, if everyone's music sounded good then their would honestly be too much saturation going on.

their should always be the level that the big name producers are on, and then everyone else who is working hard to get to that level. if everyone could make a production that sounded like skream and funtcase, where would the fun be?

First off don't be so brass and naive to claim that I am wrong or right, that is not relative to the conversation;

Why not have everyone able to mix and create more professional sounding music, it would lead to more diverse sounds, let alone higher quality productions sonically.

I may understand if you want to hide a production technique (even though I highly disagree), but to hide mixdown tricks is simply perverse, if you really feel threatened if people knew ways to create similar sounds then you should look back to why you make music in the first place.

Being an artist is not about tricking people, its about sharing your message via whatever medium (in this case music and audio), It is still your message regardless if other people can mimic it (and that is even more flattering if people want to), that is why I said it leads to insecurity in the artists behavior when going down that road.

If someone asks me how I make 'x' or 'y' I happily take time out of my busy schedule (mood and time permitting) to explain and send info, I do not expect everyone to do this but I would expect people not to go out of there way to keep things secret.

@ narrator funty gave loads of info on drums and synth's. alot more than most infact!
i dont wanna be spoon feed, i belive in putting the hours in and learning thru trial and error.
Much more rewarding

i put in the hours too and everything i make is from scratch so i'm not looking for anything myself.
i'm not directing this at Funtcase or anything but it wouldnt kill any established producer to strip down the process of making 1 track they released to simply give some insight either to people who are already experienced to an extent or to those starting out.
Reso had the right approach and it doesnt hurt him to do so, he is still Reso after all.

similar thing on here a while ago i made a couple of Skrillex sounds and shared all the settings on how to make them, and people were only to happy to take them too. this doesnt bother me so much because i know i'll make more sounds in time and i dont have fret about losing my one good thing.

In general i think it shows more confidence as a producer to expose yourself a little, not by "spoon feeding" people but to open up or expose your approach to production for debate.

skream and funtcase

inb4 collab

[VirtualMark]

This thread is unbelievably dumb. I posted the reason patch a while ago, i made it by pausing the video and copying the settings. From what i gather, most of the sound comes from the distortion, as its unremarkable without the skream 4 filter on it.

Strangely enough, i am not the next FuntCase. I did it merely to see how the sound was made, and have since moved on. This is just one sound after all!

I'm sure it wouldn't hurt producers to tell us how a whole track was made, from start to finish. Its only one of their tracks, and its not like they're going to base their whole life on that one track.

And one thing i'm really sick of reading is 'learn it for yourself'. If everyone had said that to me all my life, i'd still be learning how to read! Thats why we have schools, colleges and universities!!! Ffs, if the best way to learn was to just blindly fuck about until i stumble upon something by trial and error, then why would we have all these educational institutions??

At the end of the day, learning by example is part of learning, fact. It will help you to learn something faster. Learning from your own experience is also important but not the whole picture.

wow maybe u lot shud do a master class in being ungrateful stnuc lol

Ungrateful? I paid for the magazine you norom gnikcuf.

[VirtualMark]

its all gravy. i spent ages teaching myself everything, now i get abused coz i wont feed this load of gay ends crucial info with a silver spoon...lolocast mclollington

No abuse from me, just a little disappointed that you didn't go into any actually useful information. Sure, you make a beat, add some reverb etc. But nothing on sound design, which after all is a big part of electronic music production!

mate, in all honesty, i didnt do much to wizard sleeve, what you hear is because of my ability to eq (despite the hate over my "boosting)...the secrets i do these days are in cubase, anything ive ever made in reason is reverb, eq and good levels...how am i going to show you what i didnt do in a track i was asked to show every aspect of what i did.

mate, before the edit i must have spent about 2.5 hours explaining everything and its all condensed into an hour...i was nervous hence my repeat of "boost" or "gel'ing" lol

however you look at it, i taught myself and thats how i like to keep it!

the fact everyones talking about it, love or hate means everyones seen it and thats great for me! standard

[Mannyyyyy]

[CyMoRrR]

The best cm till date is the drum n bass and dubstep special featuring Reso. Watch this one and forget about funtcase....
Reso kills this dude in every aspect if you ask me!
