WIPs/unfinished tunes for feedback * no finished tunes *

[BaseBass]

@JTL
The track is still a bit "empty". I think it could use a bit more atmosperic ambience. The vocals get a bit messy after a while. The harmony is not always perfect. But I like the vibe. The vocals give a bit of soul to the track. When the punchy piano-like synth comes in, it really starts to get interesting. It deserves either a shorter or a better intro in my opinion, because the track gets really good halfway through! Good work mate.

@mthrfnk
Love the intro! My track is also definitly not dubstep haha (100 bpm dubstep perhaps?). So I don't mind loking into this. By the way, is the beat supposed to be a bit offbeat? The snare and kick are spot on, but the little shakey things seem to be a bit offbeat. Maybe that is wat you want, but I just noticed. I like the surreal sound of this track. Synths are also not bad man .


@Gaol
I like the Idea with the vocals here. very atmospheric especially with the synth that joins it. The only complaint I have is that it sounds a bit dry. The snare and some hits could use a bit of reverb to match the rest of the instruments. Also I recommand using a bit more stereo width. The song sounds a bit mono. Also I think a lead instrument or melody at the very top (high end) could'nt hurt. That's all I have for you. Ofcourse these are only suggestions, but maybe they will give you an Idea .

Something totally different here folks haha. I decided to get away from 140 bpm for a while, because I needed some variation. This is 100 bpm dubstep(ish). Hope you guys like it. I've been trying really hard to get the mix to sound as wide and clean as possible, but still with a lot of ambience. Tips, tricks and suggestions won't go unnoticed .

Soundcloud

PS: I keep hearing from friends who also produce that my track(s) lack a lot of high. It sounds muffled (I don't know the English term I'm looking for. Waht do guys think/suggest?

[filtersnake]

@BaseBass: nice build up. oh sweet. that drop is sick! the little melody bells are really nice. Just looking forward to hearing the finished thing Cant really complain about the mixdown. sounding tight dude!

@mthrfnk: Nice atmosphere on this. more laid back compared to some of your other stuff that shaker perc thing you got going i think might be a tad too loud, and is probably detracting from the melodies and bass. Personal preference here but for this kind of song I'd imagine a nice snare with a deeper reverb and a longer tail. p.s your destroyer of worlds WIP is epic!

@BaasDNB: got a nice head bobbing rhythm going. nice driving bass sound. like the vocal samples you have added as well. The snare to me sounds lost in the mix a bit though. Could get a nice arpeggio going over the top to change things up before breaking it down again.

@DubMikey: Heavy bass man! one word that comes into my head when listening is snakecharmer, haha sounds to me like there's some eastern Arabian vibe going on. i like drums are big! Maybe adding some of that nice atmosphere/sounds you had in the intro into the second drop would be cool. mixdown is tight. looking forward to the finished thing!

Update on my WIP that i posted a few pages back. kind of cobbled together the structure but its still a bit rough. Hopefully I've mixed it better! Appreciate any feedback as always and I will endeavor to return the favour to anyone that comments on my tune

@JTL - i feel like the vocals don't really fit with the track. its not bad but to me it sounds un natural.

@Bergeamon - intro synths are really nice. the snare seems a bit loud to me. the main wob is really nice, an that thinner bass could maybe use some layering, but a good start.

@Goal - that vocal effect sounds cool at first but then it just keeps going, i'd try to add another synth in there sooner. the drop at the end is very nice, i'd try to go into that sooner and use the section from before it, as a break after that gritty part. very cool bounce to this.

just caught the second post after my computer just shut off now im retyping everyones feedback again... i'd say that vocal part is alot more sublte, but i'd still try to go into that gritty part sooner!!

@cornbreadddd - intro kinda reminded me of NIN at first lol.. i really enjoyed this track alot, piano work is a really nice touch over that smooth bass. drum work is really cool, very subtle. very outside the box for me, and no part of this bored me. very good work indeed.

@Dubmikey - i feel like the build up is leading to another song? drop synths sound good, an the groove is nice, i just feel like the intro is going somewhere darker, not quite so so upbeat so to say. lol very cool track.. but it felt kinda misleading to me, that build up sounded really hiphop to me. kinda reminds me of bassnetar a bit! good work man.

@thereindeer - very chill, different kinda track, i really enjoy the ambience though ,the hand drums are really natural sounding. very organic textures going on here. as for that sub bass bit, only thing i could suggest is rolling off the lower freqs around 50hz or lower, just kinda smooth it out. it kinda seems to flutter on my sub but not over bearing.

@dougriley - third time listening to your track man, i'm very impressed. the intro has a very beautiful tension. nice use of effects, and the sample is sweet. just the right amount of verb. drop synths are boss. that filtered movement is such a nice touch. snare seems a bit loud, could come down a hair, or the basses come up a hair. props man this track is ill. stems??

@bassdnb - very epic kind of energy to this but it just keeps on going. lol kinda makes me feel a little crazy.. haha, but its kinda cool though. very 80's. lol

@mthrfunk - man the intro ambiance is really good, especially if its all from scratch. im not sure your snare fits the overall position of the rest of your track, but at times it seems really good with the reverse effects and different symbol hits, i'd play around with that snare some. but the overall vibe is really smooth, kidna relaxed with a keep going kinda feeling. i really like the mid break everything seems to build and rise all togehter pretty smooth an that distant vocal sample is a nice touch. nice touches of glitch work around the drop patterns. i feel like tail end could use a solo of sorts.. very cool track man.

@basebass - really funky groove, and full of energy from the start. i like the idea of a double build up to that drop. really cool idea, a you've done a good job blending these parts together. drops synths could be leveled out a bit more, one of those wobs stands out quite a bit. really good work.

@filtersnake - good synth work in this. build up is really cool, really nice layer in this. drop is really powerfull. some of the basses seem a bit rough at times. that appregio sound in the background is cool is just sounds like everything is really fuzzy from the verb on the top end. the snare could use some work to, it gets buried in there alot. really cool track, the build up is really good imo.

well guys i tried adding some things to make an intro for a wip i posted a little while ago. tried making some more ambience an textures, really easy to give yourself a headache... gave it a loose mixdown, excuse the low volume.
Soundcloud

have a good one guys.

[Electric_Head]

that`s a nice intro
the vocal can use more reverb and delay, it can also be louder.
But the loop in general has enough volume.

[Augment]

Jimbeaux: Nice intro, but as said vocal could be a bit louder. Drop is nice, but I feel like I've almost heard it before, I'd suggest maybe trying something different. The sounds are very alike to those of Datsik and Excision, and they are nice, but maybe add in something else, to make it more.. special?

Filtersnake: First off, is the snare set to 100 wet on the reverb? It doen't really punch as much as it could. Build up is big, drop is OK. ( I may have listened too much to brostep.. ) Tune is overall nice, but yeah, mixdown could do a little bit of work, imo.

Basebass: damn, fresh intro! But I feel like the intro synths are maybe lowpassed or something, that, when the drums kick in, they could get more crispiness? Would make it better, I think!
This is definetely something different. Drop was nice! But as I said, some of the synths could do with more crispiness. Maybe layer? I'm actually looking forward to hearing the finished result of this!

mthrfnk: The first part of the intro, before the basses come, i think is too long. maybe cut half of it? The section after the build up, dude, nice! Like, really nice!! But I'm missing a beat after a couple of bars. Good tune, not much to say.

OK, guys, here is my current WIP. It's for a music project in school NOTE: Don't mind the snare in the end, hahahaha
Soundcloud
Play it LOUD!

[mthrfnk]

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback on my previous track, I'll take into account everything that people have said.

Also @flitersnake, I still haven't finished Destroyer of Worlds, but I hopefully should do soon Thanks for mentioning it though.

Here's my feedback for others:
@blinkesko:Listened to this earlier, loved it, just listened again to properly review - still love it Reminds me a lot of Gemini's stuff. I wish I'd had the chance to make stuff like that for school My only criticism is sometimes in the main body your snare gets muffled a bit by your synth. Finish this track up man, followed on SoundCloud to watch your progress.
@jimbeaux:Reviewed this before, not much more to add. Your intro is really nice, the amount of percussion is really good. Only one criticism - seems like our bass is panned a tad to the right on my headphones.
@filtersnake:Intro sounds nice, your synths work well. You build a nice energy and the drop is pretty heavy. I like how you constanly add small elements and add a lot of variety. Imo though your drums need to be slightly clearer though the mix. The vox add a nice dimension too. Also, I'd work on making your bass synths gel more, atm to me they sound too seperate if that makes sense and sometimes lose the flow of the song.
@BaseBass:Intro is nice man, drums sound good. The come on sample is good, the track sounds really well mixed. Your bass work after the drop is really nice too man. Mind me asking what synth(s) you made that in? Not much else to say, except you need to finish this

---------------------------------------------------------

Anyways, here's my latest it's 100bpm, and again most definitely not dubstep

I'm mainly looking for comments again about the musicality and the groove of the track. I personally think both my bass synths suck a lot at the moment as they don't gel enough with the main body of the track, I've also struggled to make the piano riffs fit my chord sequence as I have no formal musical knowledge, I just write what sounds nice . So any tips on making everything flow would be nice.

Soundcloud

Track was mixed on headphones, and very roughly mastered, some things probably sound shitty on other peoples systems.

Any comments, feedback and plays/comments on SoundCloud is really appreciated

Thanks.

[Cornbreadddd]

@BaseBass: Very catchy tune man. Generally I'm not into this kind of thing but you did it very well. I don't sense anything being "flat or empty" as you mentioned. To me it sounds really good as far as the mixdown. But then again, I'm new and really don't know much, but to my ear, it sounds very good. Like a lot of the sounds used aswell. However, the most important thing to me about this track, was the presence of the groove. A lot of tunes these days are getting away from the groove of the track, this one had a great groove. Good job, not my type of stuff, but you did it exceptionally well as far as I'm concerned.

@mthrfnk: Ahh, once again, making me enjoy a non 140 tune. Really liked the subtle but driving noise in the back ground, it almost sounds like an incredibly faint wobble, it goes throughout the whole tune and I really think it adds a lot of driving force to the tune to carry it, great use of a simple and quiet sound. Sometimes less is more. To me this almost sounds like a DJ Shadow tune of some sort, great grooves, and great melodies. I'm very happy that you kept switching things up, I never knew where the tune was going to go next, that's something that I look for in tunes all the time. Please help me with my new tune, I really need some help with why it doesn't sound right.

@blinkesko: I'm sure a lot of people are really into this kind of thing and you'll get a great response from some. But for me, when the melody came in, it was a little too loud. It definitely over-powers the drums to the point where I can't even really hear the drums that well. Also, I'm not to crazy about the drum sounds themselves, but that's just my personal opinion. But yeah, definitely work on the mix down a little bit more, I'm learning how to do this too, so I understand, it's tricky. Also, I feel like the tune was a little predictable, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's just something to note.

@ jim beaux: Awwww man, I loved the intro so much! I really enjoyed all the intricacies and subtle drums, very eerie. The little bells in the background also added so much taste. Also, very sick sample. As for the drop, I wasn't really into the tune that much after the drop but thats just because I'm not into the really hype jump up type stuff. The intro had me pumped though! Drums sound amazing.

@filter snake: Really dig the intro, nice sample. Also I really appreciate the fact that you didn't stick to the normal formula of intros, nice variety there. The mix down sounds really nice as well however I feel like the drums might need a tad little variation, and also they're a little quiet. I feel like during the drop parts the synths over take the drums a little.

Okay guys, I really need some HELP here

3rd tune, For some reason I can't get this tune to sound right at all, it's horrible as far as mixdown goes, I know, I honestly have no idea why, It just doesn't sound full enough or punchy, what can I do? I EQ'd a lot of bass in there.

HOWEVER:

I made it my goal in this tune to make a TON of changes in it. There are 4 main parts, and 2 key modulations. To some, they might say that these parts don't mesh quite as well as they should, and given they might be right, from a jazz background things are always really chaotic and disorderly. I really wanted to transpose that into a dubstep tune so this is my best shot. I also incorporated a ton of jazz theory into this, which also created a little bit of dissonance and pull in the tune, but I like the idea, I just can't get it to sound right. HELP!

After the intro, you won't hear the same thing without something new happening for more than 16 bars for the whole tune, so listen to it all! Thanks guys!

Soundcloud

What do you think about the synth solos in each part. For example, in part 1 it's at 2:20 after the pads are introduced and after the string melody. In the second part its at 3:17. There is a synth solo in each part, each solo is different, tell me your opinion on it!

[dj Cappa]

@mthrfnk: Sick beats and kicks man, snare sounds really nice and I like that ripping sound a lot! Everything sounds in harmony, maybe something that would help give it a bit more in the mids/highs is a plucked square wave, with a lot of reverb, making it stretch out, and cut off around 13k hz. Just an idea, everything sounds great man!
@
cornbreadddd: snare needs a bit more power, and the bass if downing out the kick too much, either side-chaining it, eq-ing or switching out the samples would help a lot i think! melodies are ll nice, i like the pad and that whistle y sound a lot! keep it up, looking forward to the full hats are really nice too btw

@blinkesko. That snare at the end ruined the whole song for me. Thanks >:( Haha just kidding, really sick song bro! Loving the melodies and all sounds are pristine :'D. Only thing is is at around 0:53, when that new lead kicks in, I think its a bit too loud in comparison to the rest, sounds good if your just listening to that one part, but the intro was so much quieter than it.

Heres some tune I made in the last few hours, 2 versions of it, only difference is the vocal sample. I am going to add in a proper into, and work on the mixdown some more. Thanks!

Thanks everyone for the comments so far! great stuff, and some excellent tips. The fact that all of you are being creative with electronic music just gives it much more credibility than a non-producer telling me what to do. I really appreciate it!

@mthrfnk
I'm currently using a mix between Albino 3 for the leads and Massive for the bass. I try to make my track sound wide so the spaces between different instrument are more hear able. Nothing too special. Just trying to separate everything without losing the "fullness" of the track.

[bRRRz]

@ dj cappa: I like the version without the vocals better. Mixdown sounds really good, but I think you could turn up the snare just a bit and add some more highend to the kick so it stands out more.

@ Cornbreadddd: I totally dig the vibe in that track man. Again, I think the kick could be more prominent. But percussion- and melodywise it's great!

@ mthrfnk: Something really different. I did quite enjoy it. As far as groove goes it's nice man. I'd turn down the little offbeat percussion though. But the track sounds nice and full with the pad in the background.

@ blinkesko: Damn that's some hot stuff. The sidechaining and the progression really works well, but the main bass synth is a tad too loud in my opinion. Sub is really great and rumbling though.

@ filtersnake: Nice drop and complex bassline! Drums sound extremely fucking good. Nice work!

@ BaseBass: OMG the synth and the structure of bassline are freaking awesome! Vocals fit perfectly, buildup, drums, sounds, everything is great! Congrats, man!

Well, here's the updated version of my WIP. The intro is still far from finished, so is the second drop, there's no outro, etc. Just wanted to hear your guys' opinion in this state. WARNING: Was going for a more robotic approach this time:

Soundcloud

[mistayif]

@ darkdubz: big tune, i love these sub driven tunes, takes me back to when i first got into dubstep, don't really have anything bad to say about this track

@ JTL: the key of the vocal and your instrumentation keep drifting in and out. at some points, they clash quite bad but in other parts they go together perfectly. also, i think the vocals are slightly too loud, currently they sit over the tune and some elements of your composition are blocked out. i would also suggest making the first drop stand out a little more. the tune has good progression tho with new elements always being introduced to maintain interest

@mthrfnk: really nice groove going to it, sounds like a hip hop instrumental at the start. the little hits are a nice touch, they are very subtle so they don't stand out too much, but stand out just enough to let u know that their there. can't really comment on ur mix as i'm listening on headphones at the moment, but that electronic distorted sound is coming thru a bit too high. also, i would suggest maybe have little variations of the drum pattern every 8 or 16 bars

@ cornbreadddd: from my point of view, that tune is way too busy, theres just too much going on to be able to focus on one thing, i think you need to give each element in the tune room to breath. its clear from the tune that you are a very talented composer, but i just think the tune is too busy, or at least it is for me anyway

anyway, heres my tune, a deep and ambient roller at 140bpm. give it a listen and give me some feedback please, no mixdown yet so sonically, it might not be the best

Soundcloud

thanks

[DefKone1]

Here's my first go at a track in ableton... I've only had it for about 2 weeks now. As for the song, I'm not going to have it go "all in" like it is right now, but rather build up to that. Feedback is much appreciated, thanks!

Oh, and obviously this isn't anywhere near done, as I've only got 27 seconds right now...
EDIT: Feedback added in a later post
Soundcloud

[Toolman4]

I'd like to state that this is all feedback from the current page I started my reply. I have not read anyone's feedback or that which you have provided anyone else. I simply just listen to your work and type.

@BaseBass: Dude! this track kills it for me! On the arrangement side of t hings, I think the intro and breakdown sections lend itself nice in contrast to the sounds we hear in the main idea towards the end. That section is dope reese work man! Has good rhythm as well with the different higher pitched sounds. The mix-down came across just as you have described...to me anyways. Could the highs be brighter? yes...but in relation to the entire track, they sit well as I hear it.

@Jimbeaux: The intro is sick and I love the vibe it sets you up for. To me it sounds eerily inquisitive as to what's going to come next. I can say I like what follows. The arrangements sound basic and traditional early datsik/excision. I would appreciate more novelty via arrangement in your bass sounds. That higher pitched sample that is triggered which is reminiscent of the intro is well placed. I'd like to see a more etched out rhythmic groove with your bass sounds. Otherwise, the synthesis is well fleshed out and clear. Just want more of the main idea and a more rhythmic feel.

@blinkesko: been following you for awhile now. Simply awesome imo.The arrangement for the intro, break, build is quite generic, but that's not a bad thing. It's very successful in setting you up for the drop. My main criticism for what we hear when the drop comes in is the side-chaining. It's TOO prominent to cut ALL the way through your top layers of sound. Let some of that reverb/delay carry through the side chain. It just feels on the brink of being jerky...however on the other side of that it feels like something great

@mthrfnk: I hate sirens. Though the intro is too dope so I don't mind it No seriously though, this track is sick. The piano work is nice and sits well with the break style drums. I can't say that there is anything wrong with whats going on here, except one thing. I'm not sure if it's the sub bass, the sub on the kick, or what...it's on the off beat at times too....It's a poppy sub hit, not sure where it's coming from, but I don't know if it works with the vibe of the track when the synths come in. Otherwise, i fucking love this tune. Good chord/piano work. Sounds to me like you understand basic scale theory.

@Cornbreaddd: The jazz influence comes through strong and very appreciable with the sub bass layer. Well done in my opinion. However, that snare needs work. Not so much the snare itself, but I think it just doesn't work for the track. Now I know that jazz snares are VERY clicky and snappy as opposed to carrying some weight to them and sounding fatter. But for the tune overall as it stands, I think it's a bit too hollow and dry. I'm thinking more top end hiss to fill out the reverberated feel of everything else in the track. White noise?...just an opinion...

@Holda: Feedback for feedback, bro

@Dj Cappa: I'm almost on the brink of saying it's cheesy. The main riff is cool and the sub bass is well mixed into the mid bass. However when you get into those upper registers, that riff becomes even cheesier. Perhaps get more rhytmical with the sound in the second section. Take away the choppiness of the beginning part of the riff and let the bass resonate for a few beats...? The bell at the top adds to the cheesiness as well. Perhaps a different sound that doesn't have such a sharp attack?...just opinions Same comments with the vocals as well, though your arrangement with them in the main riff is well done.

@bRRRz: Going for a more robotic approach? Executed very well imo. However, this is iterative to me and though the novelty resides mainly in the sounds, the beat is generic. I think this would sound more fresh at a different temp/sub genre. Glitch hop? 100bpm? Drumstep at 170ish?...I want more groove. The beat is stoic and driving...not a bad thing for a starting point, but now get rhythmic with it. Otherwise, the good is the sounds are robotic for sure, and they fill out the freq spectrum quite well. Reverbs and delays are such a large component of the vibe of that track that chopping it up with really add that flare. Otherwise, if you choose to stick with what it is, add a melodic element in there in the upper register, pad, anything to add some more novelty.

@mistayif: Duuuuuude....when the drop comes it, it's so beautiful. Yes, I can hear the low end needs mix down attention, but it's such a great tune. It's not my style, but I can dig this! Only suggestion is to add more reverb/delay on the top end of your snare (the clap?)...or maybe instead turn it down in the mix a bit (i know you haven't gotten to that point yet). WELL DONE!

Newest track...only a rough mixdown has been applied, but always looking for that oh so invaluable feedback to add anything missing. Thanks all for the taking the time to listen and provide feedback. Love and light !

[Cornbreadddd]

@ mistayif I fucking hate you dude. I'm so jealous. I wish I could produce like this, it just sounds so clear, and so perfect. I really wouldn't change one single thing about this tune, I would give anything to be able to make my tunes so clear sounding. Such a beautiful tune man, I can't say it enough. In a lot of ways it reminds me of DFRNT or the rest of the Echodub crew. Really enjoying this tune man, top notch stuff and I loved every single second. Best tune I've heard on a feedback forum yet. Thanks for your feedback as well.

@ Toolman4 First off thanks, for your feedback. But can you explain to me what "sidechaining" means? I've never understood the term but I hear it all the time on here. As for your tune I really enjoyed the little laser noises haha! Great melodies also in this tune, I honestly really enjoyed this, and I'm usually not for this style of dubstep, but you made me engaged throughout the whole bit that you posted. I honestly have no negatives for you, it sounds really great, truly. Maybe just a little bit of work on the kick? It punches through perfectly but there's just something about the actual sound of it, but that's just my personal opinion, so don't take it too seriously. Great job.

So yeah guys. What's side-chaining?
Thanks!

[drake89]

here's my tune Soundcloud
it's almost there but my professor thinks I should add some cymbals on the first transition (with the breath). spoiler: it's pretty unconventional, but it has a dubby organ as well as some raunchy dubstep growlz at the end.

@defkone1- Sounds like a great start. I like the gated whistle in the background. Maybe next play your bass in a higher register or add another element or harmony to the mix.

@toolman4- sound really tight. Too tight for my taste really, but that seems to be the vibe in this song. Maybe add an organic (real) instrument. I think a guitar solo or maybe rhythm guitar could fit somewhere in there

@mistayif- the sounds are spot on, but it's a bit minimalist for my taste. I'd also maybe think about adding something in the midrage whenever you want a climax. I think some vocals or piano would fit in around 2:17 really nicely.

[mthrfnk]

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback on my previous track again, getting some really positive vibes about my sub-100bpm stuff so thanks a lot

Here's my feedback for others:
Cornbreadddd Definitely hearing your Jazz background. I can imagine hearing this in somewhere like Starbucks For me the bass sounds weird, but may be my headphones. It sounds to me like it is slightly detuned, as a result it doesn't blend so well with the synths. Your percussion is nice and the mix to me sounds quite good. You want the tune punchier, try maybe adding a light background pad and maybe compressing the pad, bass and synths as a whole after improving the mix between everything. One other thing, around 3:20 I noticed distortion on the bass, I don't know if this was intentional or due to over EQ'ing? Keep it up man.
Holda Give feedback to 3 others, read the thread rules.
dj Cappa Nice man, quite trippy. Love the duelling synths you have going on. I'd work on mashing up your drums, they're too repetitive to me and pan your hats around. Imo, the one w/o vox sounds better. Sounds good though man, make a full t rack out of it
bRRRz Really reminds me of Datsiks stuff man, nice. You really nailed some of the synths. Although at times the track seems a little empty. Maybe try filling the background with a light pad or stabby synth?. Drums sound good although a little quiet maybe? Your hats are especially nice. Good job man.
mistayif Intro is top notch, digging this, really nice. Bass works really well, you've got a really nice ambient feel going on, the piano stabs are spot on. I really don't have much to say, except I like this a lot.
DefKone1 Give feedback to 3 others, read the thread rules.
Toolman4 To me the kick on your intro sounds over eq'd, but that may just be my headphones. Other wise your build is quite nice, the drop was quite unexpected considering how mellow the intro was. Bass work is pretty sweet man. My only suggestions, raise your treble synths in the mix slightly when they play with the bass.
drake89 Chill intro man, nice insect(?) noise sample. I don't really know what to make of the track tbh, it's weird Although I do agree it's missing cymbals.

---------------------------------------------------------

Anyways, here's a small track I made whilst playing with some new plugins, this time its dubstep at 138bpm

This was more of a practice track than anything else - the wobble bass sucks, I know, it's mainly just a filler for me to replace with a proper one later.

Soundcloud

Track was mixed on headphones, and very roughly mastered, some things probably sound shitty on other peoples systems.

Any comments, feedback and plays/comments on SoundCloud is really appreciated

Thanks.

Oh and Cornbread, about sidechaining:
http://sonictransfer.com/side-chain-com ... rial.shtml
http://www.gearslutz.com/board/tips-tec ... music.html
In summary sidechaining ducks the volume of synths/basses to allow other elements (drums) to punch through the mix.

[Gaol]

@Mistayif : wow man really good vibes. The pattern for your sub is really well put together and hits nice. After mix and master should be perfect. The melody is cool too.

@Toolman4 : pretty dope man. Definitely had me bobbing. I suck at feedback because I can’t get technical with my criticism. Everything sounds good to me.

@bRRRz : What plug ins did you use to make your sounds? They sound top notch. Really loved the tune. Loved the kinda off beatness. Atleast that’s how I interperated some of it.

Just another update. Im kind of making three different versions of this song with tips from everybody on here. I just added another part on this and im not sure if it works.

Posting at the bottom of the page SUCKS!

[DefKone1]

Sorry about not leaving feedback earlier guys, didn't even read the first post... Obviously lol. Anyway, here it is now, though my feedback is going to be somewhat limited in substance I think, mainly since I'm so new to the whole production thing... Anyways, here it is:

Toolman - All the Way is a sick tune, really enjoyed that aggressive bass/mid sound.

bRRRz - I'm not sure what it's called but I really like the pitch bending of the bass/mid. Flows well!

Gaol - Rambunctious was a little too fast paced and busy for my taste, but I like the sound. With kenzie, I feel like the song comes together very well at around the 1:30 mark

Drake89- I like the evil sound of what you have, I feel like it needs more of a groove though... It's a bit fragmented
