    Really one of the best compression tutorials out there. Just being practical and concise.

    Mate, this series is so massively helpful. Thank you. I'm a relative beginner and have been struggling getting the amen to sound good. After following along on the first video, I then got to the decay/sustain bit and was suddenly like YES! and head bobbing! 🤘Thanks so much for making the vids.

    Adjusting the decay and sustain, is exactly like putting a gate on them, often found in channel strips of consoles, but with much finer control. Nice trick. ;)

    Cool tutorial !
    Only thing I'd disagree with is that the Ableton stock compressor's makeup parameter doesn't really compensate for gain reduction, since it applies makeup gain from the moment you lower the threshold, which is why I'd advise to match the gain by hand, or use a compressor like Fabfilter Pro C which has a proper auto gain

    • @STRANJAH
      @STRANJAH  4 года назад +3

      That's good to know! I didn't know that about Ableton's stock compressor. Will experiment with some other compressors, and possibly do a follow-up in a future video. Thanks for the heads up!

    Hi Allan, instead of Decay and Sustain (and other controls) i just see Macro 1 , Macro 2, Macros 3 etc , . Tried with Ableton Live lite ... doesn`t it come with this functionality? Thanks

    • @STRANJAH
      @STRANJAH  4 года назад +1

      Hi Christopher you have to map the control from the sampler to Macro 1 by right-clicking on the decay parameter in the sampler.
