Ballistic (One Becomes Three)

By gify on March 16, 2014 10:50 pm

Taking Laguna's advice from last week and multibanded all the things. Split the drums and bassline each into three bands, and compressed them all separately. The bassline sounds way fuller as a result compared to the last two weeks. The only mastering here is just a tiny EQ cut to get rid of some nastiness.

(Didn't compress the low band of the drums though to preserve the punchiness of the kick.)

Thanks to magic_silver_box for the Renoise instrument of a bike wheel clicking, which starts around the 19 second mark. smile

Hey man, you really got the grasp of the technique (quite much better than me, really)! smile

Really good balance, to my taste. The subtle "bell" sounds doesn't get lost with the bass. Only downside is ... Your Track Ends Too Soon smile Loving your "nu breaks" series

Now I think I'd need your advice on mixing: My submission for this week... I think it's a mess!

this sounds great dudes!! well done!! really great vibe with the bass....

I tried splitting the bass into bands last week... its like a whole other dimension...

Sounds great! Nice beats and composition. Good job!

Diggin' the mix, too!! Have to keep this "trick" in mind. Great track and fantastic blend of instruments!

that's some pretty neat shit right there.
