Posted on your thread. 🙂
Yeah that’s what I meant regarding the compression I’m kind of feeling my way but I think progressing a bit each tune, certainly learning something new every day. I run a fat ‘silent’ kick and sidechain the bass and pads/leads on most things, tend to run a slower release though due to the tempo.
I’m guessing you use a brickwall on the master what kind of db do you aim for? Originally I was aiming for about -12 but it seems everyone is going to -8 or higher, I want it loud but don’t want to flatten off the dynamics too much.
I don’t know if you’ve heard the new tune I put up the other day but it’s the first one I’ve properly played with stereo imaging, makes everything else I’ve done sound very 2d so I’m going to go back and tweak a few things.
