had the chance to work with a real TR 808 recently and took some time to sample the different sounds and their variations, they have all been edited right to the transient so they are set to go.

Theres also a TR 505 set also from the real unit.

Both sets are raw, with no sonic manipulation at all.


Enjoy

How can I up the overall sound on the track without it clipping and or sounding poorly?

Any good tips on making tracks with sub bass and kicks together?? Compression?

To celebrate my current brokenness how about a thread about some good free plugins.

I'm looking for something that makes nice static distortion like ableton's vinyl distortion. any suggestions?

This might sound like a naff question but...
the main sound from Mason- Exceeder and BodyRox- Yeah Yeah which is also in a huge number of other dance tracks- How do I make it? Is it a plug-in, a synth or are producers programming it themselves?
Cheers for any help,

Ive started paying more attention to all this a bit more so ive got a few Qs if you please

I now have all my kick/bass/drums/perc in mono, apart from a few effects etc. and pads /arpeg etc in stereo.

Ive been running each channel through ozone 3 and looking at the correlation & phase meters. Ozone 3 also has the options of mono, switch L/R, invert L, invert R.

Now if the ozone meters show phase cancellation (i think) going on, does that mean that when you convert it to mono parts of the sound will cancel each other out & so not be heard? so if i click the mono button in ozone, as long as im still happy with the sound then its ok right? even if there is some cancellation going on.

What should i expect when clicking the switch L/R, invert L, invert R buttons?
and what should i watch out for there?

ive been using the Waves imager to widen the pads out on a track, but as soon as i do so the ozone3 meters show lots of cancellation. what would be a better way to widen the pad sound? can the asymmetry & rotation help on the imager, or should i be going back to the sound source, or using a doubler or something? Is the idea to have both left & right sides sounding a little different so that they dont cancel each other out?

Finally lol is this only relevant if a track was gonna be put onto vinyl and hence made into mono, or is it important all the time?

Cheers guys,

Paul

So I was working on a project when suddenly a plugin went haywire. It suddenly BLASTED this horrible sound at an extreme volume. I'm shocked it didn't damage my monitors (or so I think). Luckily I was quick enough to turn down the master volume on my mixer.

So it got me to thinking. Since this does happen occasionally, I'm wondering if there's some hardware I can buy to put between my mixer and monitors (or somewhere in the chain) to prevent such a thing from destroying them? I'm only using a dj mixer, and am planning to upgrade to a real one, so was thinking that maybe a studio mixer would have this sort of function built in. If so, what's the feature called? If not, then what should I buy?

Thanks!

Sorry about all the spam recently, looks like human assisted ones were getting through. Have added a new measure in order to prevent it.
