Samples/Plugins/Software/Gear / Solid Acoustic Drum Samples
« on: February 23, 2016, 10:36:02 pm »
Anyone know where to find a really good acoustic kit? I'm looking for heavier samples than what Ableton and Native Instruments have.

Did this just happen? I had no idea but this totally rules. Now I can process my Massive patches through Serum

Mixing/Mastering / Question about a track's levels..
« on: February 02, 2016, 05:32:50 pm »
I was analyzing a bunch of tracks today, and right away when I started looking at Okay by Madeon, I noticed the waveform looked like its peaks were at -0.5 to -0.7 db or so. The weird thing is the track volume was actually peaking at 2.79 db. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is that an example of soft clipping the master? How would you actually do something like that if you were using a limiter towards the end of your mastering chain?

Sound Design / FM Synthesis
« on: January 26, 2016, 11:07:20 pm »
Seems like an important topic to cover with other producers. Does anyone have any cool tips or resources to go about using an FM synth like FM8? I mess around but am very clueless and useless with it.
The only tip I have is you can take a sine wave with an inharmonic ratio, modulate it's amp envelope with a very quick attack and decay, and it'll sound like a percussive marimba type sound.

You Might Like... / What Producers Do You Want to See Collaborate?

Not sure if there's a better place for this, but name two producers you'd love to see make a track together and then give a reason why if you want to!
I think a Cashmere Cat/Wave Racer collab would be so tight. Both of those guys have such a developed sound it'd be awesome to see a blend of both their styles.

Mixing/Mastering / Compression in Anticipation of the Master
« on: January 24, 2016, 09:46:57 pm »
I'm not well versed in this at all, but basically what I want to do with my mixes is be able to generally level off every channel that with compression so the mix is 'flatter' and averaged out dynamically before going through a mastering chain. What's been happening with my mixes previously is they're very dynamic but nowhere near a commercial level, so when I get to mastering I end up running a multiband compressor and maximizer extremely hard to compensate for this. Is RMS compression the best way to go about this? What do you guys do to compress during a mix down?

Samples/Plugins/Software/Gear / Melodyne Studio vs. Editor
« on: January 14, 2016, 05:02:12 am »
So Celemony just released Melodyne 4 just as I was about to purchase the old version. Does anyone who has it know what the difference is between the "studio" and "editor" versions? One is way more expensive and I'm wondering if it's necessary for basic vocal edits

R&A Graveyard / Live Performance Section
« on: January 12, 2016, 05:10:40 am »
Even though it is a "producer's" forum, it'd be cool to see a section for "live production" where we can talk about live sets, how to run certain synth set ups, mixing multitracks in a live setting, etc...

Samples/Plugins/Software/Gear / Orchestral String Plugins
« on: January 10, 2016, 02:22:34 am »
I've been looking everywhere for a plugin that has huge, vast sounding strings, but I'm never 100% sold on anything. What are your guys' go to string plugins?

Sound Design / Lenno Shimmers!
« on: January 08, 2016, 04:16:20 am »
I've been trying to make the little shimmer type of fx similar to the beginning of this beautiful Lenno track, but I haven't been able to get very close. If anyone has any suggestions, especially making something like that in Diva, it'd be so helpful!
