Fucking Tambourines are everywhere!

[Andy Sneap]

i think the new nickel back stuff is really awesome....

tambourines are also awesome

I hope you are being sarcastic

Its quite a common 'trick' where the producer asks for a tamborine or more often a cowbell (and sometimes a click track) mixed in very low where you cant really hear it but it adds 'something'. Dance producers have been doin it for years and I know that some big time rock producers incorporate it in thier mixes. It's the 'you dont know it's there untill you mute it' scenario. White noise is sometimes added again subliminally into mixes.

Yeh, there is an instance of this in "my curse" by KSE actually amongst other things (lamb of god had it too). Just a really crappy sounding synth mixed extremely low. Doesnt seem to ad anything for me, but i guess it contributes to "the wall of sound".

I like tambourines and shakers. Then again, I rarely ever produce metal

Best thing for those is Stylus RMX. Even if you don't like a single beat or feature, the thing is worth it's price just as a tambourine/shaker machine ...

 

[Suicide_As_Alibi]

Andy, do you own a tamboruine?

Yeah, but he reamps it through a Krank

I don't care for Nickelback, but I do indeed think tambourines are awesome, not being sarcastic.

 

[Pedro Teixeira]

I honestly think they add to the song, they emphasize that specific part you want, mainly the chorus, it's cool ^^

not for metal though >_<'

 

[J the TyranT]

Well... the Cult is epic fucking win, and they use tambourines pretty frequently...

but metal bands? ehhhhh... I dunno. maybe?

just no FUCKING hand claps!!!!!!

Stylus RMX is awesome. It's all over my band's stuff in the mellow bits.

I'm fond of tambourines and shakers as well (the best shaker I have is the pepper mill from my kitchen. ) but our music has a decidedly industrial bent to it a lot of times, so we can get away with using this stuff.

 

[Proggm]

I thought that was a shaker not a tambourine?

Yeah, but it's still percussion on FUCKING METALLICA. Totally unexpected.

I have it, it's really powerful.

It's a bit OT but...

Do you start to write your beats/song basis with RMX ?
I often play around with it, but still I can't create anything practical.... Any tips on a workflow ?

Sometimes yes. Sometimes I'll just run through the preset until one inspires me, and build a song around it. But it's mainly giving birth to the song, sometimes I'll erase it during the creation of the song.
