Making Ambient with Puremagnetik Fathoms

In this video I show you how I make ambient music with Puremagnetik Fathoms, which is one of my favourite plugins. It is a complex effect involving a resonating space and a delay series which creates beautiful and complex metallic sounding patterns. It plays nicely with hardware and other software effects and it's an interesting plugin that inspires me still, although I've been using it for five years already. #notsponsored

I always love your music, thank you. It’s so true what you say that producers own every MIDI gadget and DAW under the sun - only nutcases who spend hours turning knobs and pressing buttons will understand. Also, the unpredictability of making music is awesome. More please.

Great video per usual! Hope you are well. I really liked the intro, and hardware visuals. I use plugins sparingly, it seems Darklands is def my style :D. Cheers

Puremagnetik’s The Century bundle was one of the best plug-in investments I;’ve made.
