Vengeance, friend

[BABYLON]

I think he uses most rock, live drums heavy processed like current value and vengeace packs
And use layering and eq, for drum pattern use triplet quantize

Just up the volume until it's in the red.

I had a bit of an idea he was using vengeance alright.
It's just that his drums pack so much punch. his snares sound as if they're layered with a floor tom or something but he mostly layers his subs with his drums and the 2 sounds are distinctive from each other without any clash or without it sounding as if he just simply boosted the tits at 200hz etc..

[BABYLON]

if you on win, use shaack transient shaper and turn drive up full, turn attack and release, and on eq boost 200 hz before shaack...

He def layers over a floor tom. I sampled one of his snares a while back and when I played it solo it sounded more tom heavy than snare heavy.

My little trick as of late. Put a kick under every snare.

tom can replace with sin wave sound with little pitch envelope..

Are you referring to the old Suicide Dub tunes or the more recent breakbeat stuff ?
Anyway, my answer would be the same : layering! (do a search on dsf)
Some (most ?) people seem to use ADSR enveloppes when layering drums, personally I just layer, tune the samples & limit the whole lot to get rid of the peak.

I don't like Vengeance sample packs snares much & recommend Thomas Penton Essential Series.

Definitely one of the best dubstep "Tutorials" I've seen in awhile.....if you can really call it a tutorial. It's always nice to get a bit of a laugh and learn at the same time.

Best snares ever. I use them in pretty much every track.

[high rankin]

I just layer them up really. Some are from vengeance packs, some from other places and then just eq them really. 200hz etc. I've not tried putting a floor tom under snares but i might.

Some say that there are only 7 snares in the world and that they are just layered in different ways to make different sounds. A guy in a pub told me and i have no reason to doubt him.

I have an artist pack coming out on Loopmasters in Jan and all my drums are in there

More reasons why i luff this forum.. actual responses from the guys themselves.

not to be tonguing your anus or anything man but i find your drums punch harder than most guys out there, it's the one area i feel i lack myself.



patent pending* on the floor tom idea btw haha.

Pretty much with snares is you want to have one thumper, a mid, and a high snare (or clap) watch any of the rusko or subfocus cm videos and they explain how the set up their snare. Rusko uses a lot of eq boosting(about +5db to the 325hz region), white noise shots, and a clap. I tend to use a snare that hits around 180hz as that provides a nice thump but some elitists on this forum don't like the whole "in yo face" snares.
