    Architects - Lost forever // Lost together

    Maybe I wasn't clear enough in what I meant. I meant that the drums sound like real drums. A lot of recordings now a days are processing drums so much that they stop sounding like drums. Like the guys from Chango studios, their drums are just not good. But yeah they sound super powerful and in...

    Architects - Lost forever // Lost together

    Just wanted to know how you guys are feeling about this album. I have to say I absolutely love it. How natural, open and big everything sounds. Not very familiar with the guys that worked on this album but they did an awesome job. The low end and subs on this album are huge and powerful sounding...

    Question about blending drum samples and processing.

    When you blend multiple samples to create your own sample. Do you process each sample individually to get just whatever part you want from that sample (just the low end, the crack) or do you put all the samples together and then process them all together through a bus ? Thanks for any and...

    Help: Problem reamping with Saffire pro 40.

    Update: After i had this problem with the P1 I decided to try out some other pedals I have. The behringer hm300 and the ibanez sm7 both work perfect, no buzz or hum or anything. But when I tried my Mxr M80 it was also making that same loud hum/buzzing noise, all tho it was a lot less noticeable...

    Help: Problem reamping with Saffire pro 40.

    I just purchased a Saffire Pro 40 and a Amt P1 this week. Got home super excited to start doing some reamps and then I ran into a problem. After I set all inputs and outputs on both my daw and the saffire mix control, i turned the pedal on to see if it was all working and I get a really loud...

    A day to remember - Common Courtesy

    Wondering if anyone listened to this album and what you guys think of the production. Sounds huge. In my opinion it's their best sounding album to date.

    How do you make Addictive Drums snares sound good?!

    Try cutting some mids out of it. Blend different samples together. Try a snappier sample. Try the transient designer plugin which also helps to give snares snap. And try humanizing it as much as possible. I dont use Addictive Drums but those are a couple basic tips I could think off the top of...

    Going for a Bendeth kind of sound. Did I fail miserably ?

    Trying to go for that Bendeth style of mix, not easy at all as I quickly found out. I can never get guitars sounding right so some tips there would be nice. Any criticism at all would be good to see if I can make this any better...
