Re: Reverb on Kick O.o?

I've long felt that reverb is the key to burials cavernous kick drums..havn't been able to come anywhere close to reproducing these though.

Re: sub bass frequency question

My kick hits much lower than that, but given the nature of a gradual slope on a low pass I've just been feeling comfortable giving in plenty of room to breathe. I want it to dominate the lows while the bass sits ever so slightly above it. idk if i'm making sense.

Re: sub bass frequency question

Didn't want to start a new thread for such a similar question, but...where do you guys normally like your mid range synths fundamentals to be hitting at? I normally low pass them at 150 to give room for the kick, and am having some trouble finding a good frequency to start them off at. I'm talking a...

Re: Rolling off the high end..

Thanks for the input guys..I've been having to do a pretty gentle roll off on my highs around 12khz in order to prevent ear fatigue from piercing highs. Could there be other frequencies causing this tiring effect? Could it be the room I produce in? I use rocket krk 6's with the HF turned all the way...

Re: White Noise...

I actually havnt been processing the samples,or massives noise oscillator with any thing but a low pass filter and occasionally a vinyl distortion unit..just sounds so harsh and piercing as opposed to warm (as far as noise goes)

White Noise...

Is something simple I just can't wrap my head around...some of my favorite artists like James Blake, Nicolas Jaar, and Shlohmo have a way to make these pulsing white noise waves and trails on drum hits. My problem is that no matter how I filter out the high frequencies or how quiet in the mix I put ...

Creating Visuals

I'm interested in starting to make some animations/visuals as accompaniment to some songs I've just made...but have no idea where to start. What sort of programs would be best for taking images and then layering/animating them? I'm thinking it will be similar to photoshop, but with moving pictures. ...
