Articles about Tom Cosm:
This video, by Andy by way of Tom Cosm, is the first of a series of three tutorial videos on track construction in Ableton Live.
It’s designed to teach you ways you can approach writing a track, from start to finish. It covers topics such as Sound Design, Building Loops and Section Construction, Arrangements and Progressions, and Mixing.
Explains Cosm:
In this video, I start by writing a loop, made up of pads, playing a chord progression, then percussion, bass and finaly a lead instrument. This loop becomes my first hook. From there I strip it back to create a progression from intro, to a groove, then into the first hook.

Filed under: Software Sequencers, Software Synthesizers & SamplersTom Cosm offers his tips on using formant filters in Ableton Live:
This video is an answer to a question posted on my forums ( bit.ly/KyumG ) on how to get a good powerful sound out of your formant filter.
I have attempted to explain by relating the oscillator to the human vocal chords, and the filter as the mouth/nasal cavities in hope to show that having a solid sound/oscillation and pitch tonality pre-filter is the secret.
