In Day 1 I'll be teaching you how to make a punchy Drum and Bass beat using techniques like layering, EQing and compression to build a strong, driving basis to your track.
Sweet!

@tz64nk41 I generally have a bit of pitch, sample start or bend to the velocity and get a different effect on the percussion that way, but having 2 similar sounds makes sense too. And doing both is probably even better. And the combinator is more of an organisational preference, cool. Thanks the info.

@M1ggins And as for ghost notes, they probably shouldn't just be the same snare at a lower volume. They should be shorter and darker sounds too.

@M1ggins Watch all of the other videos, he always uses combinators so he can keep all the effects with the instruments and save the whole thing as a combinator patch. It just keeps it tidy, and he likes that. Makes perfect sense to me.

@Djlargecake hmm, so asking someone why they do something is equivilent to saying "I know everything" is it? I want to know why he uses a combinator for single samples, they are used to COMBINE sounds, which he is not doing. All he's doing is wasting processor space using them on every instrument. So I want to know why, what are the benefits. So learn to read and understand english before you start gobbing off dickhead.

Couple of quetions, 1 why the use of the combinator? and why don't you use the dynamic hard to soft instead of 'ghost' hits?
