Please Help : Detuned Brass Stabs.

I'm working on a cover of a rather classic Amiga tune created by the late, great Richard Joseph. Speedball 2. I've got most of the sounds nailed, but those off key trumpet stabs are killing me! I know the Art of Noise crew were fond of doing things like this back in the 90's as well. The part I'm re...

Re: (Darkwave / Synthwave - cover) Game of Thrones Main Theme.

I'm feeling some nostalgia of playing sonic in my teens on a sega saturn. I think a modern day Sonic game should be powered by VK2 :lol: . Currently my favourite synth! I never managed to move away from that old school vibe, currently losing my life to Dead Cells. VK2 is a bit special, isn't it! :D...

Re: Most Useful RE's

Really? You’re using an 1176 as your usual 2-bus compressor?!!? This is a rare decision for me, personally. I purchased a broken 1178 ( stereo 1176 minus the input amp and transformer ) and fixed it ( simple problem with the voltage regulators, easy fix! ) and have found it to be fantastic for both...

Re: UMPF Club Drums RE

I like the break out idea on the back to separate out-puts for each sample. One thing I can not stomach about Kong is it's in-line, inclusiveness. I still use ReDrum (a lot, no, seriously! A heck of a lot!) with Kong as the driver. My set up is generally one Kong lane which may include some internal...

Re: Noise Engineering Rack Extension Challenge

Delving into this today, but I have a few concerns regarding the rules. I’m guessing Grain is out of the question as it’s technically a synth in and of itself; and I’m guessing the same goes for Europa. You can import samples to both devices, but they alter sounds in such an extreme fashion. If this...

I really need to stop by here more often. Just noticed these in the shop, on sale, in a bundle. That kick drum though! You could easily construct an E.P. just using these, possibly an album too... hmmmm... After I get paid they'll be mine. Personal challenge accepted!

I did go through a phase where the RE2A and one of the EVE range from Kuassa went on either every bus or every insert. This has since stopped (thankfully!) So, RE's that end up in pretty much everything. Softube FET - Master Compressor Ozone Maximiser - Final piece of the master section. Fritz - See...

Re: CYBERKILL (live future guitar improv)

I can't help but think a nice actual guitar chugging rhythm behind it would help lift it out in certain areas (low, really low tuned to A (not drop)). Oh and some big open chords too especially around the 3:32 (-ish) mark. and maybe add some modulation to that long ringing note as it's distracting. ...

Re: How to make industrial-new wave beats?

Try going through the individual samples in the Drum Supply refill. Most music of that ilk tends to ignore sounds that are trying to sound like actual drum sounds and favours sounds that are clearly digital (this is why I love electronic music personally). There is a very large collection of sounds ...

I had to look it up. Interesting, I hardly see any resemblance myself but I guess it depends on one's references.

What are good uses for Selig Gain? My main uses are to keep levels in check. One thing I like to do with specific sounds is run them parallel through an extremely aggressive compressor, then join the signal and run that through a maximiser. I'll drive this to clipping point, but the volume output i...
