In Logic X - if you go to region inspector on the left, and click on the Delay field - you'll get a drop down list with milliseconds and grid values like 1/64 etc. No need to go elsewhere for release timings :) Thanks

i also find it useful to put an EQ on the master bus, solo the kick and bass tracks, then bring a low pass cut all the way down to about 100-that way i can really hear what's going on in the low end without the distraction of any mid-to-high range stuff. helps one really dial in the low end.

Someone already recommended volumeshaper, but something like that is definitely the cleanest way to do this. It doesn't have the same character as classic sidechain compression, though. For doing it with a kick, a good practice is to duplicate the kick track, output the dulicate to silence, and use that to trigger the compressor on the audible kick track. We call it a "ghost trigger," and it opens up a lot of creative possibilities like ducking the track when no kick is actually playing or shifting the timing of the ducking slightly

ShaperBox 2 (Volume) by cableguys definitely is the most flexible ducking tool. ShaperBox 2 can also be midi triggered which makes a ghost kick redundant ("ghost" = channel pre fader send active with channel gain at negative infinity). However, certain compressors do have their own very appealing ducking characteristics, in which case a short and spiky ghost kick allows for more flexibility (fast attack, flexible release).

Volumeshaper is actually the most flexible way to sidechain that I've found. 3 frequency bands can be tweaked individually with different curves and mix settings resulting in the most transparent sidechaining ever. Oh, and it can be midi triggered so it's the ultimate IMO.

I love the helpful way of dialing in the compressor settings to hear what it's doing, AND the idea of having a mathematical approach to Release Time. However, doesn't a side chain compressor release time 'start' at the point where the incoming signal falls above the threshold? (ie if you were to use just a 1ms transient sample for the kick - or a dummy sc channel with a 1ms sample - with the SAME release time settings you have, wouldn't you end up with a different compression sound, because the release would be triggered earlier with a 1ms sample vs whatever your kick length is in the example ?). In other words, the mathematical value used for your release time ends up being arbitrary as its actual time is the combination of the length of your kick tail falling outside of the compressors threshold settings + the release time value. (I hope this makes sense - please correct me if I am wrong !)

@jordn1 Жыл бұрын

Love your channel and consume it all the time! I have a question about this technique: I have a project with a BASS AMP track and a BASS DI track. Additionally, I have two live recorded kick tracks, one of which is a more "kick sub." Do you recommend sidechaining the Bass Amp to the main kick track and the Bass DI to the Sub kick track with identical compressor settings? (Hope this makes sense).

Tempo BPM to MS is another good website that gives the milliseconds. You actually taught me the correct way to use it now, so thank you. Can this be used for the limiter att/rel/sust as well? is it the same approach of fast att/rel in that situation? I find myself fumbling around with the values and being uncertain what's actually happening in the mix.

@abezdnb 3 жыл бұрын

The release time (or any delay timing or whatever etc..) will equate to a dividend of 60'000/BPM.... There is 60'000 milliseconds in a minute. So if you divide that by your beats per minute you'll get a 1/4 note in ms. Then of course any dividend or multiple of that will be in time
