    Harmonic Saturation is a great illusion for the ears.

    Great tips here from Deyvon!! Let me also add that
    1. Be careful with the shadow hills because it can get really distorted really fast if you’re not careful so just be aware of that!
    2. Rbass algorithm actually includes a resonant high pass filter so instead of putting it on your bass as most do try experimenting with it as a send just like a reverb this gives you more of an additive effect with more control!

      @shaferproducergod 5 місяців тому

      @@coldskoolbeatz No im saying use Rbass like. Reverb and put it on its own seperate bus and blend it in instead of putting it directly on the bass. That makes it additive and not subtractive. Rbass adds a resonant high pass filter so if it’s directly on the channel its doing more than you probably think its doing. Look up videos of Rbass and plugin doctor it will give you a better idea if what it’s actually doing to your sound
