This week, we welcome back Taylor Franklyn for a new ‘How To Make’ course as he creates an Ambient Chill track from start to finish.
With this style, it’s more about the melodic elements taking you on a journey and focusing on atmosphere and feeling rather than beats and rhythm. We begin with a time-stretched drone and laying down a simple chord progression along with a lush evolving pad and arps before adding some chilled drums, bass, and effects.
Packed full of sound design techniques using ANA 2 and Ableton stock plugins and utilising VELA for reverb duties, there’s a lot to digest over these ten videos that you can utilise in multiple genres going forward.
Sit back, relax, and check it out!
