Creating a Vintage Movie Score Inspired Beat

Description

Studio wiz Thomas Cochran brings you detailed beat production video tutorials! See how to make a complete "vintage movie score" inspired beat, step-by-step using many of today's popular plug-ins and instruments. The videos are shot with Ableton Live, but the info can be applied to any DAW. This series is for those who are already familiar with using their DAW, but want to learn to make a vintage sounding beat. You also get the samples and Ableton Live projects used in the videos so you can follow along on your studio system.

Thomas greets you and then starts at the beginning, by playing the sample that will be created and the beat that will be made from the sample, followed by 3 in-depth videos on crafting the rough sample from scratch. Watch as Thomas shows you how to create and layer vibey guitar, pad, brass lead, and string samples, and make them sound like they were recorded from an old record, via numerous processing techniques that utilize these instruments and effects:

Arturia Mellotron V

Arturia CMI V

Arturia Stage-73 V

Serum

NI Kontakt Scarbee Rickenbacker Bass

Fab Filter Pro Q

Fab Filter Pro R

Now it's time to make the beat! Thomas rolls up his sleeves and teaches you how to slice and re-pitch the sample for even more vintage flavor, add then adds drums, including the venerable 808 for kick drum duty, a fat Reese Bass, cool percussion, and a vintage inspired bass guitar for even more retro grooviness.

Then you'll see how to create chords directly from the original audio sample, which will then be used as a sketch for making the main chord melody, and then utilize a resampled harp sound from the Arturia CMI sampler, which gives everything a lo-fi flavor while providing melodic variation to the arrangement. Last but not least, Thomas reveals how to make the basic arrangement and structure of the track, plus how to make interesting fills that add more excitement and movement to the song.
