R&A Graveyard / Dedicated chat room (IRC)?
« on: January 10, 2016, 05:44:49 am »
One thing I miss about the forum-dwelling days of the early 2000s was all the IRC channels that sprung up on different servers for all the people on the forum to communicate in realtime. I know twitter and facebook has really circumvented the need for such things, but I think it'd be kinda nice to keep the tradition going and set up some sort of channel or (if possible) IRC server for multiple channels if necessary. Something like #TheProducersForum or #TheProFo.

Samples/Plugins/Software/Gear / Favorite Third Party Kontakt Libraries?
« on: January 08, 2016, 06:08:18 pm »
I've been looking at Output's Signal and Exhale lately, and was wondering what other non-Native Instruments released libraries other producers have found to be hidden gems or really useful additions to their Kontakt Libraries. Any thoughts?

Samples/Plugins/Software/Gear / The Maschine Thread: MPC? What's That?
« on: January 06, 2016, 04:42:19 am »
Someone remind me to edit this into something more complete tomorrow morning.

But I figure this would be a good spot for a general discussion thread for anyone who uses NI's Maschine software/hardware. Any other Maschine users out there? What's your gear? How do you use it?

Sound Design / The Kick Designing Thread: Click, Punch, Thump!
« on: January 06, 2016, 03:51:49 am »
How do you do it? Synthesizers? Samples? This can be a sort of general discussion thread for how you create your kicks or how to create your kicks.

Right now my kicks are split into two parts: The top, and the body/tail. The top layer is a sample - something with a super snappy click or a nice acoustic airy top end. I program all my sampled drums in Maschine, so I'll use the sampler's built in filter to high pass off everything below about 100Hz or so. Then I layer it with Sonic Academy's http://www.sonicacademy.com/KICK/ synthesizer, which really is the meat of the sound. I'll skim through the presets to find something that's close to what I'm looking for then start tweaking the note values within the kick's parameters and figuring out how long I want it to be. I feel like this gives me way more control over the low end than just layering a bunch of samples.
