hehe word dino, glad you like it :) break down the production end... ? you mean how did i make it? if so...
drums: i used two breaks, mostly for the fills and texture. i added some distortion, rolled off the low end to about 150hz, had subtractive eq notches around 200hz and other ones here and there... then used multiband compression to thicken up the mid-hi range stuff... i love the way i can shape the final tone of breaks with multiband compression... i layered 3 snares on top of that and one heavy kick... kick has some warming distortion, a small additive eq notch at 100hz... hats are kinda too airy... i probably cut a little too much of the low out, but i like em to be nice and light. so sue me. :) bass: layered a sub underneath the midrange bass, the parts where the midrange gets all gritty has to do with the way i set the envelope and the shaper (i used either the clip or the noise setting, i can't remember which)... lots of automation on pitchbends and mad filtering... i've been using the same filter setup within the reason environment for a long time - patch both oscillators into filter b, then into the shaper (if i use it at all), then into filter a, set both filters to combo+, and then fuck with the filter env till each hit sounds the way i want. rolled off the high end to about 8900 or maybe 8000kHz to clear the way for hihats, other synth sounds, etc. i always add effects, then eq, then compress (when i actually use compression), then use hipass filters to clean up any inaudible low-end harmonics on each element... trying to be really good about carving out niches in the mix for each specific part... i learned so much from this list it's incredible. :) other than that i just used some standard delay / reverb and shit on various other elements... i'm being careful not to overprocess stuff the way i used to... my final mixes are getting louder so i think i'm getting the hang of it! lmk if you have any more questions. always happy to offer up some info. :) ~a > -----Original Message----- > From: professor vast [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, January 26, 2004 6:27 AM > To: Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List > Subject: [dnb-prod] Re: phrantek - intellectual slut > > > groovy ass shit man... i finally got around to listening just now. > track moves like a mutherfucker... nice work mister > > break down the production end for me ... > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Andy Abang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > it came to me when i was drunk. but it's got some sentimental value. ;) > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: professor vast [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > tell me about the name of the track... > > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > > From: "Andy Abang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > > > for a limited time only! 128kbps. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > http://www.phrantek.com/audio/drumandbass/phrantek-intellectual_slut.mp3 > > > > > > > > > > dark techy sorta ravey shit maybe. whatever. you be teh judge. > enjoy. > > > this> > > > is actually mixed down too. > > > > >> > > > comments most welcome. i'll probably do just a tad more > touch-up. > > > > > > > > > > ~andy abang > > > > > http://www.phrantek.com > > --- > Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk > You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To unsubscribe send a blank email to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
