Electronic Parts in Post-hardcore, help please

[abaga129]

Okay guys i am about to rip my freakin hair out trying to figure out how to do some of the electronic stuff that i've heard joey and some of you do. :hotjump: For example i can never get any of the vocal or guitar stutters to sound like i want.
Could some of you point me into the right direction with the electronic side of this stuff?
I have some pretty decent vsti's (massive, nexus, vanguard)
I dont have any electronic samples that im happy with.
And tips for technique would help a lot. The whole stutter thing is whats getting me the most. Do you cut the audio up or do you automate it?

Any advice would be much appreciated

I normally take something like a guitar track and send it through whatever plugins I want, and then cut it and automate it. Normally like a bitcrusher, distortion, ect.

The stutter things you're talking about can be done with various ways. I know that some use a plugin called Glitch. I do them manually by deleting the second part of each note that i want to make it sound like this (16ths - 32nds), depending on how fast I want it to be-sound.

I used this technique here (there are various stutters in the song, but also check at 2:37 to see the speed build-up): [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aMWONacJ90&feature=plcp[/ame]

If you feel confused, upload a short clip and I'll do it for you, uploading some screenshots to see it how it looks like

Do it by hand, don't rely on plugins for glitches and studders.

Thanks a lot, I'll give it a shot. I'll post a clip when I get it done. By the way, the production on that song is amazing.

This, it may be more work but you end up with a better product in the end.
