I record drums in my room and I only have enough inputs on my interface for overheads and close mics. A while ago, I watched a SpectreSoundStudios video where Glenn was very adamant about room mics. After watching that video, I did some experimentation on my own and ended up making a sim room channel exactly the way you did it! I've followed your Logic Pro X guides when I first started maybe 2 or 3 years ago, when I first downloaded Logic Pro X, and after all this time, this video shows up on my recommended. I'm honored that I was able to figure out a technique that you've been using and I just gotta say thanks for all the videos you've done! It's really helped me out over the years!

This first trick is great, I’ve been doing individual transient processing for each drum and usually with a latency heavy plugin like Neutron - very CPU heavy as well!

Useful, knowledge based sharing 🇹🇹🔥 ...your use of the envelope was like a compressor and gate. I've never used it but it seemed so easy and made so much sense. I'm thinking, in the almost million mix vids I've seen, this is the first vid that used it.

@bubrocker 3 жыл бұрын

Very Cool. I love the idea of sub-mixing down to several separate textures, rather that stacking them on a single bus, (ie. one bus that contains eq, compression, reverb, etc.) This puts a lot of creative control in your hands when it comes down to mixing the tracks with the rest of the performance. Well done sir! love your videos

Josh when creating an aux return with a bus does Logic Pro X now offer mono aux returns?

@paul_smith66 5 жыл бұрын

Cool stuff, well explained. One thing to watch out for in Logic is that pre-fade sends are also pre-pan. So if you send them (a pre-fade send) to a stereo aux they'll all still be right up the centre regardless of where the channel they're being sent from is panned.

@danielkang7789 4 жыл бұрын

any suggestions instead of putting stock envelop and the comp?

@lorenzowoodmusic 5 жыл бұрын

When you use the presets with the multi output drummer tracks, they have room channels and overhead channels with the drums in them. You can enable or disable each drum in the rooms and overheads.

@MusicTechHelpGuy 5 жыл бұрын

You mean the preset sends Logic adds to Drummer tracks? Yeah, it's a simulated Room, like I did here. Some third party drum sample instruments actually allow you to control the level of the room mics and overhead mics. (the samples are multi-channel). Drummer doesn't let you do that. It only separates them into 5 stereo channels -- Cymbals, Kick, Snare, Toms and Perc. If there's some overhead and room control in Drummer, I've never seen it?

@55Aavenue 5 жыл бұрын

@@MusicTechHelpGuy You have to choose one of the producer kits to get the overhead and room mic tracks. The basic kits just have the 5 tracks, but if you use one of the kits under the producer kits category, then you get a separate room mic track, an overhead track, even a leak track, among a few other things.

Practical tips that works, while vca compressor has most sensitivity towards transients (voltage control amplifier), even fet is good for transient

@MusicTechHelpGuy 5 жыл бұрын

I was avoiding transients in the 2nd example, that's why I didn't use a FET comp. I've got the transients in the dry signal/punch aux, I just want the woofy, boomy sound in the smash aux.

@scottchandler1796 5 жыл бұрын

Great stuff as always. However Logic’s drummer does have overheads, room a, room b and leak tracks. You have to use the “Producer +” kits. They all have the same kit names however you need to drill down under the folder name “Producer +”

@scottchandler1796 5 жыл бұрын

Sorry. Must correct myself, there is no room b, but yes all of the others above do exist.

Is there a way to send he audio into an aux track but the bus track is the main audio source? So like the original audio track isn’t outputting audio.

@MusicTechHelpGuy 5 жыл бұрын

Yes, just make the send pre-fader, and then pull down the volume of the audio track. The signal will still go through the bus to the aux track without any regard for the main channel level.

@TheSlickoify 5 жыл бұрын

Why not just route the channel output to the bus? You don't need a send plus you can still use the fader instead of that tiny send knob.

@rileyjordan8114 5 жыл бұрын

In logic, click on “St Out” on the fader and then just change it to whatever bus you want

@Pikachu-qr4yb 4 жыл бұрын

2:30 Question: How are you sending 100% of the channels to the aux if the green knob is not all the way turned to the right on them?

@MusicTechHelpGuy 4 жыл бұрын

If you option click on the send amount, it will set it to 0.0dB, which is sending 100% of the signal from the channel through. yes, it's positioned about two-thirds right, but if you go any further right, you'll see that you're adding gain on top of the normal channel level. So when you go beyond 0dB, you actually sending a louder signal to the send than you are sending through the channel.

@Pikachu-qr4yb 4 жыл бұрын

@@MusicTechHelpGuy Wow that's good to know. I'm assuming that's not ideal in an average situation, due to clipping etc?

@toxieroyce2528 2 жыл бұрын

so would you use all three of these techniques at the same time/in one mix? Or does it just depend? Like if I made a punch bus, would I need a smash bus? If I'm using midi drums, could I use all three at the same time?

@MusicTechHelpGuy 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, you could use all 3 at the same time and blend them together. I use effects like this all the time on MIDI drums to give them more of a "mixed like real drums" sound.
