I was feeling nostalgic, so I came back to our vault of drafts and found this awesome damn-near-finished beauty. The majority of its makers haven't touched in over a year, therefore it is still a wip. Maybe if we spam their soundclouds, they may just come home for the holidays and finish it ;)

I think there needs to be a bit more of a bridge before that last part.

I finished third year of uni last week so I've got a lot more time for this account now.

and yeah, it was the rasselbock on the drums mixer I was talking about, as for the bass I can see the sense in side-chaining that. :)

haha, don't worry just trying to keep things organised here. A lot of drafts on this account become quite messy quite quickly. Feel like I need to be the drill-sergeant kicking you all into shape and getting the best out of everyone. :)

i also added a very subtle exciter on the marimba/kalimba/harp whatever just to bring out the mids a little bit more, i dont think its causing any troubles unless u think it makes it too crispy...i think thats about it...i dont know what really goes on with bouncing stuff but ive always had bad experiences with the sound quality going down, idk why...but if u have ur ways @virtuousduck then thats cool :)

...to hear a difference, but it depends if you really want the bass to come through or not and i think its fine so ima delete it...the rasselbock on the percussion, i dont know maybe we could do something with it? ill keep it for now unless nobodys gonna use it...and im working with the limiter off, cant hear any clipping so im gonna leave it that way.

ill just record everything i change/figure out/resolve/whatever here...the reverb on the AUX of the minimixer for the harp is unnecessary...the rasselbock at the very bottom is speeding down the harp, i didnt add that but i think its ok imo (its what you are first hearing)...there is a sidechain from the bass to the percussion, i just didnt have the ratio and threshold strong enough
Jun 8, 14
organization was bad...compressors, idk whats up with that, but i did see something with stereoenhancers on the bass and there was like 4 of them in a row?? idk whats with that...reverb i hear u there and idk about that rasselbock, i mightve been using it for...something...???...lol i havent touched this in a while, ill take a look at it. :)

all good things, thanks. :)

And it might be worth cloning the draft so we have a back up?
Jun 8, 14
Oh, also, maybe it would be worth bouncing some of the drums back as loops to save space?
Jun 8, 14
other than that, it's all good.

5. What the fuck is the rasselbock on the aux feed of the drums mixer doing?

4. DO NOT use so many stereo enhancers. It's lazy and muddies up the sound too much as well. Especially on bass sounds. Try to use the stereo effects on the graphic eq instead if you want to bring some stereo effects in as it does the same thing though without delaying the signal in one ear (i.e, less phasing issues). Plus, the bandwidth of the stereo fx can be adjusted on that as well.
what a throwback ~
