Key takeaways
Summary
The video is a tutorial where Narcix shows how he creates a “bleed/blood” type beat in FL Studio (the exact genre name is unclear, but the process is consistent with that style).
1) Start with the melody
- Go to FL Studio and build the melody first.
- Use an easy-to-browse synth (he mentions Xpand!2 as the main choice, with other options like Spire and Nexus mentioned).
- Find a lead sound in the “hard leads” area and experiment until something works.
- Make the melody “as crazy as you can,” including stutters/quick variations.
2) Copy/extend the melody
- Copy the melody over and add more layers/sections to make it fuller and more intense.
3) Add “Narcix sauce” / presets
- Apply his “awesome preset(s)” to the melody elements.
- Check each part individually to ensure it still sounds good.
- Add some distortion to increase aggression.
4) 808 bass setup
- Use an 808 with a strong bass presence.
- Boost volume and use settings like attack.
- Use slide notes (e.g., placing a slide note under the 808 or adjusting slide note positioning) to make the bass “sound crazy.”
5) Drums and finishing touches
- Drums are mostly up to preference; he demonstrates adding elements like a crash and delay effects.
- Uses a “ding”/symbol sound effect and emphasizes turning it up (“crank it”).
- Adjusts swing to get the groove right.
- Wraps up after mentioning he might be temporarily blocked/stuck, then includes standard prompts (like/subscribe/comment).
Overall core idea: Make a wild stuttery melody → apply presets (“sauce”) + distortion → design sliding 808s → pick drums freely + add hits/effects → tweak swing.
