New Ambient Track Walkthrough Alert!

When Frozen Plain reached out to me to make a video on their flagship product "Mirage" and it's sound libraries, I was a bit of a sceptic. Sample-based synths can either be really good or horribly bad. After diving a bit deeper, I'm happy to report that "Mirage" really is the real deal! The sounds are deep, aesthetically pleasing and very inspiring.

In this video, I go over the features of Mirage and while I do that, I walk you through how to make an ambient track and show you why Mirage is my new secret weapon! I'm also excited to let you know that for a limited time, you can get ANY of the sound libraries that Frozen Plain offers for 20% off. Each library is not only affordable, but comes with the Mirage plugin. It's a powerful package and I'm honored to be able to give you guys a discount. 

Use the code "S1GNS20" at checkout to get 20% off your entire order at https://www.frozenplain.com 

In related news, the second full Ambient Track Walkthrough video DID record sound and I'll be releasing it right here on Patreon very soon. Stay tuned for that...it's a good one!

Cheers and enjoy!

I almost bought Wraith and a couple of others they have a month or so ago. Definitely gonna revisit that with a discount code in hand :) Thanks Chris!

I am so new to everything that the two midi clips confuse me. Do I download them from Patreon and add them to my studio one DAW? Then I assign a Frozen Plains preset to that track?

Zerough

Thank you! You have no idea how much this tutorial has helped. This one video was worth the entire cost of joining. Please keep up the good work.

Suggestion for a video- can we talk about when to go "off grid"? Some musicians especially those from the modular crowd are very loose with the timings of some parts to create a free-form space ... then often use a solid rhythmic foundation underneath
