Re: Ideas For a Newbee

What about this one mate? www.youtube.com/watch?v=41vqQlYDoHI It is really a Christmas-themed dubstep tune but apart from the intro it's suitable for all year round listening tbh Finally a real dubstep tune has been posted. The rest is just minimalistic crap that people pretend to like cause they'r...

Re: Goth Trad Appreciation

The mixer is Behringer not sure about the model though. Majority of his tracks are broken down into their separate components i.e. percussion, drums, leads, bass within separate clips in ableton and he activates these from the drum pads. The mixer is to control all the separate components including...

Ug, always hated the zoom controls in cubendo.... :( This is where knowing the program well comes in handy.

Re: Recording poopy farts in a toilet bowl

I'd probably just record some impulse samples of the sink and a few different toilets and then record dry and find the best one in the mixdown stage. Some people would argue that takes the life out of it though and reduces the realism. Why has no one done an IR of someone shitting in a toilet bowl....

Re: Benga's favourite bass lines...

Re: Goth Trad Appreciation

Yeah and you can see in front of the midi controller is another mixer I've seen this exact same setup in a lot of videos. But i have yet to figure out what each part is doing. In my mind I'm figuring that he has his set up to work like the Akai apc40 for Ableton. The giant mixer for greater detail/m...

Re: Goth Trad Appreciation

Any one know his live set up? I know he DJ's off of Ableton but I'm curious as to how. I have been a few mixers and things like that. Is he just triggering pre-cut clips and mixing them together or what the fuck is going on?

I'm in school as well, and I will tell you the trick to producing and maintaining school. On your down time choose one or the other also a song usually takes more than a day to make so every time just work on a part a little more. Don't worry about the master focus on the Mix more to get a great sou...

Re: The line between raw and badly produced

I don't typically EQ hard or anything at all haven't been using compressors or limiters. I only use what I need to to get the sound I want. If I'm making a bass via constant re-sampling then yeah I will EQ certain sounds I don't want out. But not really compress or limit i just rather use standard s...

Re: gain structure and mixing aka THE MONEYSHOT THREAD

No, I get it, what I was saying is, macc has never seen a session of the guys who are big in EDM now, he is just giving his personal opinion on the correct traditional way of mixing. These posts are 2009, "dubstep" in 2013 is much different, those where still pre-Skrillex times. If you ar...
