[@duhfridge]

Best compression tutorial on the web.

[@johnstarks5323]

7:55 IMO, the non compressed drums sound thicker. the compressed one sound a little thinner but tighter as-well. in this example, the end result would be how to trim the fat from your drums if your using drums that are over powered.

[@JaeFreshmen]

thats a good point and yea i notice that but i was ok with it because i was going to put a baseline , i shouldve added in the video but next time

[@johnstarks5323]

@@JaeFreshmen That's a great case and point, using a compressor to trim the fat from the kick drum to make room for a bass line to sit well in the mix. That's what's up. your a big inspiration & learn a lot from you, 👍🥁🎹

[@geoffwidmier3714]

Seriously. I’ve been telling all the new MPC owners on Reddit to check out your channel. I am competent on the MPC, but I still learn something every time I watch one of your videos.

[@samsilk945]

Throw in some parallel compression and sidechain compression, there's no going back.

[@The_Sound_Technician]

What if you have all of your drums on separate tracks… how do you apply a compression to those?

[@JaeFreshmen]

you put them in a submix

[@michaelm3512]

Would you recommend the live 2 for someone who’s never used a drum machine before?

[@JaeFreshmen]

have you used a daw before?

[@michaelm3512]

@@JaeFreshmen I’ve used FL Studio for years since high school so I’m pretty familiar, but never with a drum pad

[@JaeFreshmen]

​@@michaelm3512 If you still prefer using a DAW, Maschine offers a more streamlined workflow. Although you can integrate the MPC with FL Studio using MIDI, I chose the MPC to step away from my laptop. The MPC's portability is a big advantage, although it can be a bit bulky if you're primarily using it as a drum pad. but if you want to learn something new and don't mind the learning curve of mpc then go for it

[@unclemick-synths]
