Hey hope everyone is well. Have put up a review covering a couple of Goldbaby's sample packs which are excellent. He's expanding over to some synth based ones as well.


New Video Soon

Hoping to have a new video out this week covering more complex warping of non digital/perfect bpm tracks. Someone contacted me about trying to warp a vinyl copy recording of My Release which I'll go over as well as some latin tracks I came across with tempo changes which make a nice challenge.

Studio Work

Studio work has been quite busy as summer closes. Have had a chance to work on some indie/electronic crossover stuff in addition to to the usual club tracks which is always interesting. Also have had the pleasure of working on some projects for a few artists I'm sure a few of you are familiar with such as Spooky, Infusion, and Guy J.

RSS Feed

I initially had a separate feed for both this forum and the one coming from the new site. In an effort to simplify and consolidate those the main site RSS signup draws from the forum feed now. This is partly why I'm posting some news here so it shows up in the feed as well for anyone subscribed to that as the news items on the site itself won't be part of the feed anymore.

Ok we had topic,great topic,about processing baslsines


now what are your techniques of processing synths,how do you make this flat raw sounding synth sound great ?

I often struggled with it and it required from me quite a lot of tweaking in order to acchieve desired effect.


How do you compress,how do you EQ and gel it with whole mix ?

I usually start with one of my fav softsynths, then if needed i put a reverb,then EQ ,and then whole this signal is being send to compressor .

Though i know i still have to learn much much more and experiment.

Any tips,suggestions,advices liek in topic about basslines?it was extremely usefull ,and thanks to medway tip with hipassing i started to use one good hipass filter,bit of distortion and those basslines rock...




for example in mylo-drop the pressure,i just love how this main sound is pumping .it is so uncomplicated,but at once it is good enough to make perfectly groovy track

Hey,

I am mastering my sounds and using PAZ Analyzer to help get an overview of my sample. I am unsure how to fix the sounds that go out of the stereo field range for left and right channels, sounds that pass into the red AntiPhase area.. is there a plug in for this to remove them or is it more technique with EQ'in or something?

With my massive project template in Logic I have brutal latency playing any sort of soft synth/sampler with my usb keyboard. Even with the buffer down to 128 the latency was unaffected.

I opened a blank project and created one instrument track and the latency was no longer an issue.

So obviously the latency has something to do with my extensive template.

- Where is the balance between having a rad template and a manageable level of latency that you can play parts in comfortably?
- Is there anyway to have a super rad template and not have latency?


I can acknowledge that one possible soultion is to render the project play parts over top in a new session and then import those parts back into the main session. However, that seems like a bit of a run around.

This is pretty much a blank slate type of topic for me, so any help/explanations are appreciated.

Question is..

What are some ways I can completely turn my track to shit for a bar and then smack it right back reality.

so like track is grooving along...

How would effects on the master bus come into play in this situation when rendering for a stem master?

Haven't posted a mix in a while but did one for DJ Fady's Goosebumps show on Frisky. Have also got a top 10 as featured in this months DJ Mag:

i have a good track and need information for mastering . If i send my track do you whant all the layer separate or only the base line and kik ???


Thank you !! you can see my label http://www.vortekrecords.com

Just a quick question about the order of processing for a typical deep sub bass sidchained to the kick...

best to put the compressor with the side chain first and then a second compressor after to even things out with a couple db of non side chained compression

or would you do regular compression first and then compress with your side chained compressor

opinions?

I usually layer 2 claps and a snare or vice versa. I just can't seem to take that harsh edge off it and smoothen it out. I read somewhere here about using the Vintagewarmer.

Hey guys.. I'm kind of a lurker on here. Check in every so often. Thought I'd share a track with this group. Any thoughts are welcome. I would describe it as "feelgood breaks."
