Was this done with/in kontact or with something else, i.e. drumagog etc?
Yeah all Kontakt for the overheads, I actually took some lows out, added a bit of highs and a touch of comp. But ill re-up the clip without any of that. Couldn't tell on my phones Drumagog on the kick obv though
Sound
EDIT: Clips re-upped with no futher processing on the cymbals.
Killer stuff Joey, just what ive been looking for.
you still need a compressor
there's no way to pre-mix in the way a compressor will react to the performance you're programming in
you'll be missing out on lots of sustain and blend between the cymbals without the compressor, which is absolutely crucial
Ok just done a UBER quick clip, on cans so I can't even tell how it really sounds myself but here's something to show people if they are on the shelf about purchasing:
Mix: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/451140/Joey_Test_Mix.mp3
Drums only: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/451140/Joey_Test_Drums.mp3
What did you put on those drums? Notably the kick and snare? They don't really sound like the ones I purchased.
I'm fairly sure the demo he made was made with my cymbals only. The rest was from other sources.
Hey joey, these cymbals and drums will show up in kontakt just like the slate ones do? So theres no replacing (drumagog) needed?
just heard the new miss may i.. dude, sounds huge.
i have a question with the snare. i have to say i fuckin love the reverb on it. is it only a slate z4 or mixture with a reverb thingy or wha?
Hey joey, these cymbals and drums will show up in kontakt just like the slate ones do? So theres no replacing (drumagog) needed?
it depends, because the snare is going through automation
sometimes its a mixture of 3 snares, sometimes 2, and other times 1
but to make all the possible combinations, you'd need the Joey Sturgis Snare 1 which is the loudest and hottest snare in all possible combinations, then a slate z4 sample, triggering SAME velocities as original snare performance (crucial to get this right), and then a reverb mixed snare
in the mix, these combinations are all made via automation of volume between the three depending on whats happening. there's also some pitch modulation going on in some of the reverb snare automation, making the snare seem lower and heavier.
joey, would you be willing to make the JS1 snare into a kontakt instrument?
