Broke down what actually makes Sosocamo's beats unique (it's Multikeys lol)
Been loving Sosocamo recently and decided to deep dive into why his melodies hit so different, and it turns out Multikey presets are basically the secret krabby patty formula behind the sound.
for anyone who doesnt know, a Multikey is a single preset that maps different one shots every time a key is pressed, you can have it pick at random or cycle through all of your one shots. the plugins I use for those types of presets are either Pigments or Analog Lab V, those presets are the sole reason why his melodies feel like they evolve even when each bar is repetitive with the same notes.
I broke down a loop I made in his unique style and showed a visual on how to use and make your own Multikeys from scratch here! https://youtu.be/X-X9h6ReYVM
personally I use Macshooter and Keyon's kits they have amazing multi key presets!!
anyone else been messing with Multikey presets recently? curious to any new kits/presets that are gas!
