This guy REALLY makes me want to pay for your subscription… he REALLY gives great ideas and MAAAN… he’s not afraid to go away from the traditional and the didactics is AWESOME!!!
If the music doesn’t have tons of fast kicks in it, would using the sidechain filter on the master buss compressor be much different? It seems cool and this guy is awesome, but it’s a bit tough to for me to understand. Good reason to watch the whole session lol
I’m genuinely confused about his “in’s and out’s” approach. His Control Hub pack has mix bus presets for this, but I’m confused on how he sets them up. I thought they were a mid/side separate compression thing going into a mastering chain. But it seems like there’s some kind of ducking and sidechaining going on? Or am I right and he’s just describing how certain elements affect the overall compression in each?
It more like wet and dry. In has heavy compression and out doesent have any compression. For example the kick is hitting the compression too hard so he send only little bit of kick in the in bus and them he sends more of it to out bus to get volume he wants. Its like wet mix knob but with ability to controll every channel differently
Always been a fan of Machine i remember when i first saw him was on the the studio doc of the actual recording of No time to Bleed album its crazy to think that was like 15 years ago lol not only is he crazy knowlegdeable he seems like such a cool dude to hang with. I absolutely loved the sound of Alex's kit on that record especialy the POP on his snare.
I think he's just compressing them in a parallel bus so the kick and snare duck the inside bus but don't affect the outside bus(which has the bass and vocals ). You can see Bus31 is IN, 32 is OUT, all the drums but the side kicks are on 31, with the main center kick being sent to 31 separately. So his OH, Snare, Toms and just the center kick go to the IN bus comp with the guitars, I would say he's just doing a parallel "glue" bus more than he is sidechaining
Love Machine's enthusiasm!
Me too, I didn't realise how well it was keeping me engaged

Most geniuses are a little crazy

So your sidechaining the kick and snare with the guitars?
