Help!;Production Tips and Tricks
« on: March 17, 2016, 08:26:07 am »
What I need help with is:I have a drop,and I want to insert a riser of 8 bars into the project,and I want this riser to play only when the drop is playing.I want to know how I can achieve that besides slicing.Because slicing 8 bar risers with respect to the drop can be really tough and time consuming.
Please do explain any technique to get by this.
All of us are students.Except some of us just stop learning.And I need you to keep going.There isn't going to be a happy ending,there's just gonna be happy struggle.But the struggle will be worth it.

Do you mean that the drop has pauses and you don't want the riser to play during them? I would probably use volume automation, but you could also try sidechaining a gate with some instrument/bus that is silent only during the pauses.

If it's a pitch shift,  you can play the note and stop, but continue the pitch automation for that entire section.

lucky date has a tutorial out there about this where he automates with an envelop.

Josh Huval: Honestly, the guys who are making good art are spending their time making it.

The problem is that it's a bounced out audio of 8 bar riser. Have to just try slicing.

Should be more specific to what you're using for your work.


If you're using audio dude, you might be stuck with having to slice it.

You can always make something yourself.
