I'm working the kinks out of a whole new thing.

Let you know if it flies or implodes under its own weight.

Hard to plan when you're writing music like a mad man.

Seriously, I'll be in touch on this.

Hey David, why did you switch to Peak.. from RMS thanks

[SFLogicNinja]

I just KNOW someone' gonna get all over me for this, but here is a bad, generalized, SIMPLE answer. RMS is more of an average compression where PEak is only really compressing the signal when the threshold gets passed. Peak is much better for catching fast transients, while RMS (Root Means Squared) in better as an average compression over the audio energy.

Dude YOUNGER BROTHER is Simon Posford.. look him up his Productions of PSY and CHILL music are on another level

Listen to SPHONGLED it is amazing music..

if he doesnt know about the freeze function that is strange... but his music speaks for itself. Thanx for these great tutorials i really get alot from them! CHEERS!

I found that AU circuit gives the best for me sidechain effect!

attack: 10; release: 91: ratio: 7.0:1: treshold: -25

really helpful, thanks

Dave - interested to see you had SH101 on Bus 2. I use mine of virtually every project :-)

hi... is there any way of getting the bassline to come in smoother rather than a heavy thud at the beginning of the note... just so its sits nice in a trance / techno song i am working on ... thanks so much for your tutorials you deserve a medal for the help you have given me.. respect and happy new year 2 u

hey dave, how does changing the amount of the kick sent to bus 1 affect the sidechain signal?

also, as a tip, you may want to talk next time about the added settings in the compressor (when you click on the sideways arrow near the bottom). the compressor's Q settings make a huge difference on basslines. thanks for this though. very helpful!

@UO777TDWP yes, just do the same but mute the output of the kick

@25moixa *points to your name.* I see what you did there =u=
