Producing & Mixing Drum 'n' Bass

http://conservatoriumofaudio.com

A preview of the Producing & Mixing Drum 'n' Bass tutorial, now available from Ben Rosser's Conservatorium of Audio. This tutorial looks at many different aspects of Drum 'n' Bass production and mixing, including:

- Creating, layering and processing a typical Drum'n' Bass break beat.
- Creating breaks from drum loops and layering breaks & additional percussive elements on top of the main beat to create a full, moving and breathing drum sound.
- Different methods for manipulating drum loops to turn them into your own creations, from manually manipulating raw audio, to slicing up a loop and using MIDI to develop new sounds.
- Creating moving melody elements, and layering different synths and sounds to create a large, expansive sound.
- The use of automation to help create movement and flow within the track.
- Getting the eneregy within the track to build and drop, and using different elements to help guide the listener's ear.
- How to create rises and drops using samples, effects and various other techniques.

drum hits are too short for the bpm

[MrPDOGG213]

165 - 180 bpm

[Slah606]

If you speed it up to about 165 or something like that then the song will sound more like DnB, cause mostly songs at that speed are jazzstep, or at least from what I know.

[Show7yme]

i'm pretty sure you're only on 155 bpm when most DnB tracks are 170-175 i'm not sure though i don't use abbleton, just sayin :P
