Everytime Someone makes a real statement people try to turn it into 1. "them thinking they know something everyone else doesn't" and 2. "them beleiving their way is the only way to do something".breal said:Since when did using a simple gate become overprocessing.
Sounds like overstatement to me.
The only assumption you guys are ever correct with is 1. And it's not them "thinking", it's them knowing. Just like any other pro engineer and 90% of professional producers.
Why not just get good samples to begin with from professionals who knew what they were doing when they adjusted everything? Why have terrabytes or worthless drum libraries? Why compress/eq/limit just a kick when you can turn everything else down and not f**k up your dynamics early in the production process? You won't know if you made the right choice in this process until a vocal is added to your song, and unless you engineer all the artists you make beats for, by then, it's too late. Why is there always threads like how do "pick somebody" make their drums "bang" in "pick a song", and when I go to listen it's a straight off the triton drumkit. Why use a Gate when you can control your drum's release for more precision with just the turn of 1 knob?
All that sh*t, and keep it real, go to my myspace and tell me your drums "bang harder".
(check the instrumentals, I did no engineering on the full songs, just produced them). You guys come up here, pretend you want to learn, but then shoot down real azz answers. Again, do whatever you want, but all that work is pretty much in vain.
