  • @ElectricEddieDaus
    @ElectricEddieDaus 2 года назад

    Interesting Idea. Now unless you are just doing this for Kicks (No Pun intended - LOL) to take a sound of nature to see what you can end up by chopping up the samples which is cool as well, but I have to ask why take all of the time to go thru all of these steps to end up with (ex. a Kick drum sound when you could grab a 909 Kick or something similar) which sounds similar or better and only takes a few seconds to do, instead of going thru this elaborate process. Just trying to figure out the thoughts & your logic behind this. Are you doing it for fun or do you feel that your getting and end product that you can't get anywhere else? To me the Kick sounded OK, but in my opinion not really like anything different that I have not heard before and not worth all of that extra work when there are thousands of Kicks available.
    Pretty Cool & Creative. Thx ElectricEddie

    Great design, considering all the ambient noise (mixed in w the wanted ambient noise). ;) It's all one fat piece of wood for carving out desired harmonics, as you so appropriately pointed out with Spectrum. One thing, I suppose because I come from earlier style of recording,... why is everything slammed so hard so that nearly clipping on the tracks? Is there a reason? I am sure it has to do w the style, but sometimes I wonder how some artists actually hear that a dynamics/saturation plug is having a positive effect on the original signal--besides just driving the limiter (several of you use on tracks) even harder. Anyone with any explanation I might be missing? I am not being sarcastic. I see this a lot in these docs. Is it style based? I'm always level-checking any new dynamics or sat on my individual tracks/busses and rarely use a comp/limiter in chains. Thanks for the vid 🌶

    As an intellectual endeavor, purely for your own enjoyment, I understand why you might want to do this, but on a practical level there are so many great kick, snare, or otherwise sounds out there to manipulate there’s absolutely no point in going through all the trouble to turn a bird into a kick.

    I’m not sure why you are creating all those different duplicated track instead of working simply on one single drum rack, considering that all your side chaining to individual sound can be done in the rack itself by selecting any single pad of the rack. You even assign different notes to the track
    which is something natively done in the drum rack. A parte for that, great video

    It is interesting to see and show how sound design works and what you can do. It would be even more interesting if the final result would sound cool. Your production is zero impact and unusable for radio or live giging. Ok it is experimental. If I would need a kick to shape it than I would record me slaping a wooden dor or something and not white/brown noise of street noise. 😳🙄
