Hey, I passed 200 subscribers. Here's the tutorial video. This was a long process to edit. Easily the longest project I've ever done, simply due to the fact that... well, it's an hour and forty minutes long. So, In this video I cover the basics of what you'll need to record, how to make guitar tones, writing and arranging drum tracks, doing recording, mixing, mastering and editing. All are listed below with time codes if you want to skip to one specific section if you have a specific desire to look into
I recognize that I did a poor job with certain parts of this video. Mixing and mastering, while I can do it well, aren't really my strong suit when it comes to explaining how to do it. Either way, I hope you do learn something out of this, as I love teaching people how to make music.
Certain tips I gave in this video came courtesy of CSGuitar89 and FamilyJules. They have their own tutorial videos on YouTube; the one by Jules is more in depth than Casper's, but both are very helpful and informative. Also, other people to check out are the people at Musician on a Mission for their mixing PDF sheets, if you want them, and Glenn from Spectre Sound Studios who has made excellent tutorials on recording, if those interest you as well. And as always, I hope you enjoy this video, and I hope you learn something!
