Official Music Channel for Lucid Dub Quest.

Hello, my name is Claude and I have been creating and mixing music since I was a child in the 1960s, with the help of a brother's reel-to-reel and my own equipment as I grew older. My father performed on many radio shows throughout the US into his 70s.

LDQ, other than Lucid Dub Quest, also signifies my surname and Queensland, Australia, where my large family and I live.

I was born in Florida and have also lived in Wisconsin. I made music as a boy by using two cassette decks, adding a layer each time, and also made tracks by removing the erase head of cassette decks so the previous recording did not erase, though the high frequencies diminished each time, so I started with the highs.

Although I like playing bass guitar, keyboards, and drums, I also use DAWs and iZotope Advanced Audio Editor for finishing a mix.

Thank you for listening!

I may make a video of this (REEL or SHORT) but:



How to make a realistic pentuplet fill at 70 bpm.


People have asked about pentuplets (quintuplets) because there is no automatic grid for such time in the DAWs I have used.


Note the velocity map.


MAKE SURE the DAW sequence has 0 to 96 time values for each beat. The start times should be 0, 19, 38, 58, and 77.


Here, B1 is a LOW bongo and C2 is a HIGH bongo. You can also use other pairings, such as 11" Conga and 13" Conga or 14" Timbale rimshot and 15" Timbale rimshot.


Thank you for your interest.

Taking a short break from revealing YouTube's ridiculous and FAKE analytics to something even more surreal. LMAO. My noisestep track is supposedly similar to an old ACTUAL song from the Dave Clark Five - "Glad All Over". This is such typical utter YouTube FAIL, that it defies imagination. LMAO.

The chords for "FLEX" are mostly just sinewaves (RX 8 signal generation), with percussive attack and some coloring - with F minor and C minor as:

F 3, Ab 3, C 4 and Ab 4 (+6 dB)

Eb 3, G 3, C 4 and G 4 (+6 dB)

PSYDUB MIX - FIRST STEP (How to balance levels with these elements). Ask me for advice if you want CLARITY and perfection in your audio. I use RX as a virtual DAW. Most people do not go into this level of detail.

"Water Ghost"

This track was loosely influenced by Porky Pig and Sylvester the Cat in "Claws for Alarm".

It features a virtual sarangi, which is like an East Indian violin.

Many thanks, people.

Citrus isn't what it used to be. Weird black "mushrooms" growing inside mandarins with no evidence of such on the oustide.

This is a MID-SIDE watermark at -24 dB on the SIDE only, only visible with WAVEFILE encoding. It's not that audible since the mix is mostly in mono with only a spatial reverb (plate).
