SoundBridge DAW Tutorial For Beginners (FREE DAW)

This SoundBridge DAW tutorial for beginners will teach you how to use this software. This is one of the best free DAWs and for good a reason. Although this is a walkthrough, it can be a good SoundBridge review too. This software was previously called Lumit and comes with stock VST plugin effects and a beginner-friendly user interface.

IMPORTANT!
To use your plugins, the DAW needs to be installed with the same bit version. ex: if you have 32-bit plugins, install the 32-bit DAW.

To have the plugins show up, go to preferences on the transport bar and under VST, navigate to and set the folder that holds your plugins. After that go to the plugin picker and press full rescan/find new. You should now be able to find your plugins under VST2 & VST3.

God is great! It may be hard to believe when you don't, I came from the same place. It took me a while to understand and accept God. But when I did, it changed my life more than I could have imagined and I hope yours will be changed too.

Thanks for watching, I appreciate your comments and support!

Hey, I hope you enjoy, thanks for watching! The music you hear in the background during the middle of the video was actually all made in the DAW and exclusively with FREE plugins and samples. Let me know what you thought about this tutorial!

Please look in the description of this video for getting your VST's set up with this DAW. Sorry for not including this in the video!

In my opinion, when doing these tutorials, people should start with very simple and basic examples showing basic functions and then get into details, maybe with additional videos. Otherwise it may become dispersive and unclear.
Thanks for understanding.

I had to pause this tutorial a million times to keep up. SLOW DOWN, MAN!

Iv been using Cakewalk for a few months now. I'm still relatively new to beat making but I have a lot of experience with video editing so it wasn't too hard for me to pick up or understand (all self taught from YouTube). Saying that I had to watch a LOT of different videos/tutorials just to understand the basics of the program, but after 8 and a half minutes I already feel confident with this new DAW. This is one of the best and most informative tutorial I've ever watched. You explained everything perfectly. Thank you my man. You are now the first person in my many years on YouTube who I will be subscribing to after watching just one video.
Great work!

hey, where could i download some 3rd party plugins, like insturments and stuff. i haven't used a daw before so this is my first time! thanks

It's school holidays, and I decided I'm gonna teach my kids music production in a DAW (age 16, 14, 8). I already started them on Tracktion 7 because it was free, but after watching this video, I am going to pivot to Soundbridge. It's the perfect learning tool. The zooming controls in T7 really annoyed the crapola out of me LOL. Soundbridge looks great. This is a great intro. I feel like I am good to go to make music right now.

I got halfway through this video before realizing that nothing works, the audio won't play and I cant put in my own audio. this video was anything but helpful and I find it has been nothing but a waste of my time

[clickbaitpro]

As someone who knows technical terms, this is really a crash course to kick start with this daw. Appreciate it man!

[zvonimirsarcevic]

never heard for this DAW before..looks an insteresting

[camgw]

this is so confusing man how do u just record your singing onto the track thats all i want to know

[tsukiyoo-]

I don't understand how to have the Plugins "VST 2" or "VST 3", I have the french description (I speak french but I don't understand how to have the plugins). Like, I go to preferences and VST but I don't have any file with plugins ? Can you help me plz ?

[huh]

Honestly I’ve never used anything like this. My teacher just sent me a link and was like, “Have fun!” Thank you for the video it helped

[coolfry]

DUDE! HOW HAVE I NOT HEARD OF THIS DAW BEFORE!?! Im used to using Logic Pro X at StudioNPL sessions (@ my library), but I want to make my own home studio one a VERY tight budget. This daw is amazing! Theres not much buzz but it's soo powerful. Im still a lil suspicious that there might be a catch somewhere but for now, it looks good-thanks for the vid! Also, your channel is AMAZING! I can tell that u put a lot of effort into your vids and you deserve way more subscribers! :D

do you have to download instrument plung-ins ?

[TerenceKearns]

If I have a delay return, and a reverb return, I like sending some of my delays directly to reverb. Then on the original track, I don't need to send any of it to verb, I just send some of it to delay and reverb is taken care of. I don't always do this, but it does answer the question you asked in the video 6:10.

[DOCTOR_NEGATIVE]

I can’t find any instruments... how can I download instruments for this DAW? Is there a video explaining how to download instruments? I need help...

[CarnageReplays]

Hello it's not showing the instrumentals

[jacksonmuszynski]

Where did you get the instruments? I don't have any instruments, and I would like to know, considering I've used quotes and tried narrowing my google searches but I come up empty-handed. Do you get them off a website? How do I get them? If they're installed along with the program, how do I access them? I'm so confused and I can't find an answer to my questions other than how to attach an instrument to a track.

[AnzusEngudam]

I have a very serious question. Is there any difference in sound quality for different types of daws? And does installing an audio interface really improve the sound quality or it's just some myths? And does this daw produce same sound quality like those of ableton and fl studio?

[GameWorldEngineer]

ok so let's say I have a sample pack that gives me all the notes of an instrument in wav files. Is there a way to play those notes using some sort of piano keyboard interface? Like either on-screen keyboard or allows me to plug in a usb keyboard?
