Groove3 Producing Signature EDM Track TUTORiAL

If you want your EDM tracks to stand out and be instantly recognizable, you need to have your own special "signature" sound. In this video tutorial series, acclaimed EDM producer Chris Herrera shares his techniques for creating your own unique, signature sound.

Chris uses Apple Logic Pro X, but the information covered here works with any DAW. Chris starts off by showing you how to resample and edit your kick drum sounds to create something new and exciting, then teaches you how to slice up and customize loops to make them your own.

Chris now demonstrates how to layer and process multiple synths to make a fat, distinctly personal tone, and then presents his take on Sidechaining called "ghostchaining".

With demonstrations on how to tune your ghostchain, and how to use multiple sidechain triggers to get really interesting dynamics going in your song, you'll now be well into your journey of finding your own sound.

Moving on, Chris delves into his use of high pass filtering, a key technique in mixing individual tracks, as well as on summing busses. That leads directly into his bussing technique, including different ways of using busses, and the kinds of effects to use to achieve different goals, depending on the bus.

Finally, Chris builds a House track out of all of the various pieces you've creating together over the course of the series. He shows you how to arrange, sculpt, and automate your EDM song to give it that final, personal signature vibe.
