Slapped a bunch of sounds on each other usually results in a muddy mess incoherent What are the secrets of creating a rich and comprehensive sound mix heavy? Let's explore some tips and tricks you can use to clean the mixture.

1) Kick Drums: carefully choose your drum sounds layered with the qualities you like, can cause a thunderous beat throw President, navigation so that the levy samples and pick favorites. Upload your sampling of the will - to the battery or is particularly good for that, because gives easy access to individual controls for each drum.

Now comes the fun part: dealing individually with each kick settings and filtering (high pass filters for the great job cutting the low frequency of side kicks) and the remaining volumes of each. You want to reduce some of the samples in May so you only get the sound you like too. Compression with an attack of high release and quick may also help to kick in additional layers "hit". Layers closed high hat on top can also help to have a serious impact here. Once you've reached after the sound is logical to return to the issue (to blow or whatever your name DAW software) layer to a single drum beat so just try to probe, then imported back into a single instrument sampler.

2) Bass: It can be difficult, because the low-frequency sounds have a bad habit the impact of the effects of gradual implementation, while this may be good in some cases, many genres of music requires constant driving bass sound.

Start with a serious low-frequency noise like something warm and fat. Then try to add more middle layer end to thicken it up - you may find that phase, to reduce this try using a high pass or low-cut filter in the average frequency. Try adjusting synthesizer oscillator configuration use - which can really help gel together. A flick of disagreement midrange can also help. This is really a black art and even the experienced Pro can be difficult to do the experiment! You can try using the distortion Multiple band in some of its layers, which can really add a bit of grain in the sound if needed. Another trick used by some producers, if they are bass sound they like the phases of the sample is that - Show only a long note in his diaper and use it in your favorite sampler - voila!

3) Synth Sound off First Choice is good, choose Carefully place seems a good starting point for hot dishes really help, as with all layers. Once you have set your attempt its first add another copy the same sound in one octave higher - it can really help to thicken the sound. For achieve a different taste try adding a third layer, with properties different from the first, for example with an edge over rough. Systematically Pro 4 for the use of layers of sounds from my principal, often in different octaves to add depth to the composition synthesizer. Experience in the pan, again - although this is beyond the scope of this tutorial can really help separate sounds.

Next separate the sound of your low lead - which implies a strong reduction of low or high pass filter. Begin to remove approximately 200 Hz and adjust to its low cuts, but his solo sound is not too thin and weeds. Camel Phat is a great tool for this, and of course, gives more control over its Multiple layers of lead, such as distortion and a secondary filter. I recommend sending your chosen location or sounds to a bus channel and auxiliary treatment together. You may find that a light dose or overdrive crusher very little light can help strengthen and develop your sound. A limiter may also help the overall sound level of your mix of synthesizers to spread.
Therefore, some considerations late to consider:

1) be brutal - if not dump work - even if it took 2 hours. Repeat! Experience!

2) The use of different sound sources - synth sounds and try different samples, each synth has its own strengths and weaknesses, and their combination can provide a powerful combination. Art needle can add a layer which will complete its layers cut through your mix.

3) Try to use overdrive and distortion plugins Multi-band - used lightly these effects can actually help shape your mix.

4) EQ - use your ears! If it sounds wrong then hit again in a whole plugin and be nice! In the sounds of lead in trying to draw these frequencies: 700 Hz, 1.2 kHz, 10-12 kHz, can help increase the heat, the presence and high gloss final, respectively.

Has anyone used an electronic drum pad for theater / pit orchestra drumming?

I wonder if a good idea to get one for percussion in the pit small, and no percussion instruments real potential. Are the sounds of percussion (timpani, xylophone to. Percussion, etc.) its real? and if it is a good idea to get one, which is the best (Roland SPD-20 SPD-S, Drumkat, Alesis, etc.)? Thank you!

all his examples are excellent choices. You can also buy expansion modules to add more drum sounds if necessary. The Kat MIDI is a popular choice for decks, and the SPD 20 is only a tip of the unit online. Controlled by a MIDI keyboard or a battery pack if necessary but the Roland sounds are difficult to overcome. (HA! Get it?)
