Skew is an experimental reverse delay plugin that has been around for a few years and was recently updated to Skew v2. With this new update, Sinevibes has implemented various improvements, tweaked the interface, and decided to give us Skew for free. It’s always nice to get a new plugin without digging into your pockets, but it’s even nicer when it’s something more unusual, and that’s what Skew is (thanks to Soundvibes for the freebie). Skew records incoming audio into a buffer before playing it back in reversed chunks. These chunks are rhythmically synced to the host transport, and you…
How can I add electric guitar to house music? Traditionally in electronic music production, one would create guitar parts for house music by recording a physical guitar or playing a sample-based instrument like a workstation keyboard. To record an actual guitar, you either need to be able to play it yourself or have a competent guitarist handy. Sample-based instruments are more convenient, but can sound artificial. Session Guitarist: Electric Neon Essentials offers something of a hybrid approach that combines meticulously recorded samples and MIDI information to create an authentic sound, making it a practical way to create guitar hooks in…
Introduction — The Secret to Huge Guitar Sounds Layered guitars are the backbone of rock, pop, metal, indie, and cinematic production. But big guitar tones don’t just “happen.” They come from a repeatable, organized workflow that keeps everything tight, in tune, and mix-ready. This 10-step process is a standard studio method used in professional sessions — simple enough for beginners, detailed enough for engineers. Quick Summary 👉 Layering guitars involves capturing a clean DI signal, recording bed tracks, choosing or overdubbing a main take, tuning, editing, doubling, organizing panning, adding more layers with different tones, and overdubbing harmonies to…
ACE Studio 2.0 is an all-in-one AI music studio for macOS and Windows, focused on AI-generated vocals, instruments, and related production tools. ACE Studio is designed around expressive AI-powered singing rather than full song generation (although that is also possible in version 2.0 with the Generative AI Kit “Inspire Me”). The core idea is that you provide MIDI and lyrics, and the software generates editable vocal performances that behave more like recorded takes than static samples. Version 2.0 expands the system with more voice models, additional languages, new AI instruments, and several workflow updates. The central part of ACE Studio…
Soundtoys has made Devil-Loc, a distortion plugin for macOS and Windows, available until December 19 as the final freebie in the company’s 12 Days of Soundtoys promotion. This is the sixth and last plugin in the giveaway, following earlier freebies like Little Plate and Little MicroShift. While Little MicroShift is still my personal favorite of the bunch, Devil-Loc is still a worthwhile tool (and a completely different kind of beast), especially if you’re into aggressive sound shaping. Devil-Loc is a character distortion and compression effect inspired by the old Shure Level-Loc hardware units that engineers famously abused on drum recordings.…
Choosing the right microphone is one of the most important steps in recording vocals. The mic you pick shapes the tone, clarity and emotion of the performance before you even touch EQ or compression. A good microphone brings out the character of a singer’s voice, while the wrong one can make vocals sound dull, harsh or muddy no matter how much you process them later. Different vocals respond better to different microphones. Some singers need a bright mic to cut through a mix; others sound best with something warmer and smoother. Your recording space also plays a big role. A…
