Re: Can anybody give me some golden tips on equalizing drums

im sure the tips here will do but i gotta say its also down to experience and practice with EQing, it honestly took me ages to EQ kicks without making them sound shit. :4: Each drum or loop could be EQed so many different ways depending on it's context with other elements in your track.

Re: is there a m class stereo imager equivalent in logic??

Yah I feel you man. I have a bit of a love hate relationship with buses. Anyways, are you wanting to mono the same frequency range on all your basses? I route all my basses to three final bass buses (low, mid and hi) and then add the gain plugin on the low bus.

Re: is there a m class stereo imager equivalent in logic??

I would split the bass onto two buses and use the gain plugin.. it has a mono button on it.

Re: Bassline Effects Chain

there are no laws, if you think it needs it through it on and see how it works... too many people think that there are set rules for sound design, and that s just not true This... Try each of the fx in different orders and experiment more. Sometimes your sound needs an eq at different stages in the...

Re: DSF Q&A 20: Downlink

Thanks for doing this Q&A... some great responses already. I recently have been approaching my sessions with a similar mindset of creating my sounds before starting a track. I'm getting the desired results in the sound design stage however, have had troubles getting my sounds to work together an...

Re: Massive Parameters + External Fx Chains

Try assigning all of the parameters you want to modulate in massive to one of it's macros. Then apply that macro as well as whatever other external parameters you're modulating to a macro in an instrument rack and draw in your movements in an automation lane. Or you could midi map the instrument rac...

Re: Wrist pain after production

Proper ergonomics. Get a good chair and search for the right way to be sitting at your work station. Poor ergonomics and sitting in front of your computer for extended period of time will result in wrist, back, shoulder and neck pains.

Re: Writing in key/key qualities

I think the different chords that are associated with each key signature attribute more to the feeling it has rather than moving tonic to tonic in that key. Each note within a key or scale can have a chord built upon it. So, in a seven note scale you will end up with seven chords where each degree o...

Re: WORKS-IN-PROGRESS for APRIL, 2010

@ HAACK - I'm really feeling this man you have a nice deep flow going on. I like the High Hats but they could be a little more crispy. I think it would be cool if they had a bit of grit that lingered around after each hit. I do feel like you're missing an element from the track that makes it seem li...

Getting to the point where I'd like some others opinions on my production so I thought it was about time I'd share my feedback as well. @tripwire - I'm digging the overall feel of the track. I like the sounds yo...

I like the mix it was some good listening. Good track selection and overall a good flow. I think you should vary the lengths of your mixes a little more as well as the spots that you bring in and drop your the tracks. Mostly I think you should run a few of your tracks together for a little longer so...
