  • Misha Mansoor of Periphery shows how to completely change the feel of a riff with just a few simple changes to the drum part.
    Misha demonstrates using the song from his JST Toneforge demo and the drums he programmed with GGD Modern & Massive: by simply adding or deleting ghost notes, moving kick or snare placements, or moving the cymbals from china to hi hat or vice versa, the same riff can have a radically different feel.
    While there's nothing wrong with adding riffs if it sounds good, consider adding this technique (as shown by Misha Mansoor) to your songwriting bag of tricks to open up new possibilities!
    Get Modern & Massive: getgooddrums.com
    ABOUT MODERN & MASSIVE:
    From radio rock to thrash metal and everything in between, Modern & Massive has you covered. Huge sounding drums, with tonnes of punch and low end.

It's very obvious that you aren't faking your passion for songwriting, and that translates incredibly well into how you go about sharing what it is you do. Please stick with this, you're doing GREAT.

    As a drummer who programs a lot of drums in my band, I like sometimes to NOT put the kick drum at the same time as the guitars and play a bit with the duality between guitars rhythm and kick drum rhythm. I think you can get very nice things with this idea sometimes, that can still be very heavy. Really depends on what you want and what you need.

  • @carlasker9285
    @carlasker9285 2 года назад

    I totally agree with Misha on this. Rhythm guitars in metal are very percussive and should be aligned with the kick drum. They benefit from each other. Without making it sounding too industrial and artificial, you can actually make yourself (as a home studio producer) sound like a really good band.

    Discuss metric modulation (I think that’s the correct term). My band has a song that bounces back n forth from 132 and 99bpm, because 8th triplets in 132 is equivalent to straight 16ths in 99. Discovering that opened up a ton of doors for our writing.

    Question. Does GGD come with the drum kit itself that you can just load into logic and have the onboard drummer "drum" but with the GGD sound pack?
    In other words, is this software limited to us writing the drum lines ourselves or is it a loadable kit that can be used via computer drumming?

    Misha Manssor is a legend! Every video I see is top quality! Does anyone know if the drums are played to the grid (perfectly quantised) - it doesn't sound too mechanical, and has a convincing feel. I don't own Cubase or GetGoodDrums, but I own BFD3, SD2, Studio Drummer, Abbey Road Drums via Logic X. i wished I could get great sounding drums/feel, but my results aren't as natural sounding as in this video. Thanks in advance!

  • @m4ssee
    @m4ssee 5 лет назад +1

    This would be helpful if only I could get the volume balance right. Everytime I try to do some post-processing for the drums, all the ghost notes end up sounding just as loud as the full hits no matter how low I put the velocity and if I just use the out of box sounds without any post-processing, the drums just end up sounding too dry. So some basic drum mixing tips would be more than welcome. Or then just release an "EzGGD" for us noobs with fully mixed out of box sounds.
