WIPs / My "twist" on Progressive Trance
« on: January 15, 2016, 07:36:12 pm »
The mix/master isn't close to where I want it to be, but I'm none-the-less diggin' it.

Tell me what you think!

WIPs / How should I add atmosphere into this track?
« on: January 13, 2016, 11:35:59 pm »
So I've got an intro to a song; it's not even close to complete. I'm stuck on something, though, and its bugging me.

It lacks "atmosphere"; it just seems empty.

How should I fix this?
Thanks!

Composition/Arrangement/Theory / Any tips on creating trance chord progressions?
« on: January 13, 2016, 08:01:11 pm »
I'm always trying to create nice, meaningful chords when I try to produce trance. It rarely happens, however.

Are there any tricks that you guys use? Anything worth sharing?

Thanks!

Mixing/Mastering / ilan Bluestone's mixing process. How does he do it?
« on: January 09, 2016, 03:25:03 am »
Surely it's not that complicated. I'm fairly in love with ilan's productions, and have often wondered how he creates that "wall of sound".

Tons of compression and limiting?

What do you guys think, and could you recreate it?

Mixing/Mastering / How should you layer supersaws?
« on: January 08, 2016, 02:22:55 am »
I'm interested on how you guys mix a group of supersaws together. I mean, sometimes I'll slap a preset supersaw on top of my other supersaw without any surgical EQing or balancing. Is that normal/should I be doing that?

How do you guys do it?

Mixing/Mastering / What is parallel compression, and when should I use it?
« on: January 07, 2016, 12:06:26 am »
I believe I understand the concept of compression pretty well, but when it comes to an "advanced" techniques (such as parallel compression), I get quite confused.

1. What is it?
2. Why should I use it?

How do you y'all approach a mix, from beginning to end? Would love to try and understand a new technique.
