Summary of "How to Speed Garage REMIX like Notion, James Hype, and John Summit! 2025 FL STUDIO"

Concise summary — main ideas

Practical FL Studio tutorial showing how to make a “speed garage” remix (in the style of Notion, James Hype, John Summit) using an extracted vocal and a custom sample/preset pack.

Detailed step-by-step instructions

  1. Prepare the vocal

    • Extract vocals from the original track using any AI vocal-extraction tool (link provided in the video description).
    • Import the extracted vocal into FL Studio and enable stretch mode.
    • Set the project tempo to 135 BPM.
    • Pitch the vocal up by +4 semitones.
    • Trim the vocal to the single section you will use in the remix.

  2. Vocal processing chain and effects

    • Wider: 60% mix (for stereo widening).
    • Reverb: ValhallaRoom at 65% mix; route reverb through Peak Controller so reverb can be controlled/automated.
    • EQ: cut some lows and some mids (no exact bands specified).
    • Fresh Air: boost highs.
    • Soothe2: tame harsh resonances.
    • Stutter effect: use a Serum FX preset (free preset link in description). Automate this so it only activates on sustained vocal parts.
    • Stereo movement: use Pan Man and copy the presenter’s pan settings to create left-right movement.

  3. Drums (using the Speed Garage Motion sample pack)

    • Choose a kick and lay out the pattern (it’s suggested to keep kick volume lowered while composing).
    • Add clap and layer with a second clap for extra weight.
    • Place hi-hats between kick and clap.
    • Add top loops and use “Fit to tempo” in FL to match 135 BPM.
    • Arrange top loops and additional loops until you have a full speed garage drum loop.
    • Create drum fills for transitions; add crash and laser effects and copy/paste where needed.

  4. Bass (preset-based layering)

    • Load the “bass deep layer” preset for the mid/high bass part.
    • Create a simple bassline (demo notes: A, G, D, C — try octave variations; one layer an octave higher is suggested).
    • Layer with a second preset (“bass jigs”): copy/paste and drag this layer an octave lower for sub/bottom.
    • Processing and routing:
      • Wider: 50% mix.
      • Soundgoodizer (tube-style enhancer).
      • Route to an insert for sidechain ducking with the kick.
    • Automation:
      • Automate sidechain so it mainly triggers on the drop.
      • Automate bass volume to duck during buildups and play full on the drop (the demo used a green automation track).

  5. Arrangement: intro → buildup → drop

    • Copy and paste main elements to form intro and buildup sections.
    • Intro: copy vocals and cut sections as needed; bring in bass layers gradually (remove one bass layer during the buildup to create space).
    • Use low-pass / “love filter” automation on the top loop to have it gradually come in during the intro.
    • Add buildup drums and lower their volumes appropriately.
    • Use white noise and other transition FX to lead into the drop.
    • Automate sidechain, reverb sends, and volume changes to increase tension toward the drop.

  6. Master / transition finishing touches

    • Add an Endless Smile effect (or similar) and automate EQ on the master to build tension before the drop.
    • Finalize arrangement and export the finished track.
