      I'm more into metal, So Vinnie Paul Pantera had a great kick tone, also Slayer in general. Andy Sneaps and Andrew Scheps in general always get a lot of great kick tones, Kohle is also great with kick and snares.

      Bernard Purdie's kick on "Babylon Sisters" by Steely Dan is one of my all time favorites, but there's so much to pick from. A totally different kick, but I love how the kick of Magnus Öström sounds on "From Gagarin's point of view" by the Esbjorn Svensson Trio(also known as E.S.T. @@Producelikeapro

    An api 2500 combined with the old Pultec dbx trick really gets the job done for me in any genre

      Tell us about the old Pultec DBX trick!

    • @bco0t6
      @bco0t6 8 місяців тому

      @@Producelikeapro certainly, you insert a pultec first into a parallel channel for a kick then insert the dbx vca compressor … then on the pultec, you boost the low end to taste then attenuate the highs all the way then back off some to taste, set the band with to either 3 or 4 and the attenuation amount to 5, after that you set the dbx to give you about two db gain reduction I usually accomplish that by setting ratio to 2 then moving threshold until desired gr … set output to 0 because you don’t want any added gain … then just like normal parallel compression you adjust the fader of the channel to blend the effects into your kick … sounds like a lot in writing but it’s very simple and very reliable

    • @bco0t6

      PS the API 2500 is a part of my drum bus which can also consist of some saturation depending on the genre

  • @Czyszy
    @Czyszy 8 місяців тому +4

    Interesting approach. I personally love sculpting drum sampler/sounds, especially in the hip-hop genre which is like a huge sandbox to play with designing drums.

  • @PeterSavad
    @PeterSavad 8 місяців тому +4

    The first thing I would do is lower the gain of the clip. It's printed insanely loud. I don't see compression as a fix for that...best to adjust gain on the tracks before you even start mixing.

    • @Producelikeapro
      @Producelikeapro  8 місяців тому +1

      Indeed. However, he's using the compressor as a tool for shaping the kick

    If you can mix rock song with over 150 tracks and make a kick hearable you should mix any genre no problem

    • @Producelikeapro
      @Producelikeapro  8 місяців тому +2

      Very true! Haha

    • @synthzizer3324
      @synthzizer3324 8 місяців тому

      150 tracks is a complete lie. 150 items will not be playing at the same time, I garintee it. I put money on it no more than 10 -20 actual original, in the raw items/instruments will strike at the exact same time. This doesn't include building up false doubles, triples or fx sends etc. I'm talking raw tracks of audio as originally recorded or imported from a loop maker.

    • @Producelikeapro
      @Producelikeapro  8 місяців тому +2

      I've mixed songs with a full band, 18 tracks on drums, 3 on Bass, 2 on each guitar amp with 5 or 6 parts@@synthzizer3324 layered acoustic guitars, lead vocal with double, synth, piano and organ. Then a full orchestra and a ton of BVs, maybe 16 tracks? Track count of sounds playing at the same time can get very high!

      Ariel includes all the samples he uses in his course. Not sure where else they are

  • @synthzizer3324
    @synthzizer3324 8 місяців тому +3

    Also choose your limiter very wisely material dependant. Gain down the actual audio on file if required. A massive fat kick looks like a triangle on its side with slightly rounded points on the leading edge. You dont need to stack any kicks up with different processing if you achieve a perfect triangle. I garintee it.

    How is done mixing and production on an analogue console? You record band with dry sound with a/d converter into protools, then put signal via analogue mixing console and many analogue inserts with multiple outputs and record back to protools? Probably recording with all signal chains is bad idea, if you want to correct it.

    • @Producelikeapro
      @Producelikeapro  8 місяців тому +2

      Most of the time, in a hybrid situation, you would sum your outputs from your DAW. I have my Sub come up on a separate fader, all the other kicks are combined from my DAW

      Hi Greg! Thanks for your comment! I suppose? Ultimately controlling the attack and release of a sound is controlling the dynamics.
