The major point with the compression release is that it has to release the compression before the next beat hits, so that the new transient could come through. So the release depends on tempo of beats. At 125bpm you get ca. 2 beats per sec., so the release needs to be shorter than 0.5 - otherwise everything is compressed continuously and even the attack never comes into play. Knee shape decides with what motion (starting quick or slow, usually switching speed half-way) does the compression go to 100%. The release tempo is also very important with vocals - so that it is released when the next word begins (if we want it clearly hear, the first letter articulated, cutting through the mix - or do we want it mumbo-jumbo).
Fantastic advice. Thank you very much for this. Have always been a little confused with what I should set the release, and attack time for that matter, to.
In my tracks, the maximum note speed is 1/16. Calculated with a calculator for 126 BPM, 1/16 is 119 ms. So, in order for all my drums to be compressed, I have to use a release no more than 119ms?
I know this was two years ago, just wanted to know if anybody thinks this is possible on IOS garage band or not even worth attempting. I can mess with compression, not sure how intricate I can do it tho
the attack on the compressor is the key along with the release....a standard 30 ms attack will let the beautiful transient of the kick come through in an amazing way
ive just spent a hour taking notes on this tutorial... 😉 theres alot of bullshit online but i know you know your stuff so it was worth me doing it, cheers zen! legend!
Thanks for this! I often use parallel compression, but I don't think my drums pump enough with it. I will try your technique as I mix my next track. Peace!
You’re most likely familiar with Qubiko, I’ve always wanted to know how he creates his drums. If you listen to his tracks his drums are extremely punchy. His track “mono tono”or “U R” is probably the best example
No right or wrong when it comes to production and mixing, however my mixing teacher taught us to use a slow attack and fast release for glue compression. In doing so, you don’t squash the transients of the sounds. Keeping it extremely punchy and cohesive sounding. Know as SSL bus comp cross eye.
Zen! I have a question on this. Is it necessary to have the Kick in the drum bus for this technique to work? Because i always make separate bus for the Kick and Bass
MrJJDread yeah man I do the same. I was wondering the exact same. The compressor will definitely act differently with out having the kick in the same group
Awesome video as always! I would suggest a longer attack time (10-30ms) though on the glue compressor because you don't want to squash all those transients!

thats true! always setting the treshold correctly too

The way you've explained it all together in this video - now I actually get it!! This is going to change everything for me 😁

Prok & Fitch's feedback on my track was literally to make my drums pop more, so this is pretty much what I was looking for rn

Waiting for your livestreams bro 🤙
in the late 90s, i did a Live P.A. w/ my younger brother, and we wrote a LOT of stuff w/ this type of drumstyle. We called it "Woompa Woompa" Kick.
the attack on the compressor is the key along with the release....a standard 30 ms attack will let the beautiful transient of the kick come through in an amazing way
Michael Milano yes sir. let that kick through the door
ive just spent a hour taking notes on this tutorial... 😉 theres alot of bullshit online but i know you know your stuff so it was worth me doing it, cheers zen! legend!

How to make bass like in this video?
does anyone know if he sent all the drums into the compressor or just the kick?
Can you do all of these at once, does it work?
You can put the compressor in drum buss without the kick?
just picked up the deciever pack. get yourself some beard oil on me
that delay option on ableton is a PRO tool
any alternative for the Glue Compressor In FL Studio?
Cytomics the glue or Waves ssl bus compressor, the second one is about 30 bucks if you wait for a discount
Yo I haven’t been here in a good while!! Where’s ur old studio fam? Anyways thanks for the video!
HQ stuff! Is this the technique that TV Noise uses a lot in their tracks? Could you make a video on that maybe?
LOVE your videos, the track you've made is actually so sick. Will you release it?
Zen! I have a question on this. Is it necessary to have the Kick in the drum bus for this technique to work? Because i always make separate bus for the Kick and Bass

beep beep, sick tutorial like always.
Tfw you’re introduced by “brrrkeep” instead of “beep beep” or “bup-oup”
what name of the sample pack you use in this video ?
kick in the drum bus? yes or no??
Zac Cav No,better Kick & Bass on a different bus,compress them together,so that they talking to eachother
Wich bass is this??
Awesome video as always! I would suggest a longer attack time (10-30ms) though on the glue compressor because you don't want to squash all those transients!
Can anyone recommend an FL studio alternative to the glue compressor?
fruity compressor or fruity limiter in comprossor mode. but essentially any type of compressor with the wright setting should do the job
Prip :V 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
BASS TUTORIAL?
Boy, some advices to get that vocal chop like pad of Sebastian Leger - Lanarka ? Thx.
