Macc Wrote:(the eq behaves unusually when you boost, as you'll see, and 5x3 bands will get you off the hook a bit).

Why does the eq work like that?
Not sure - although in a sense most eq's do that anyway, that is, boosting a freq makes the rest relatively quieter. This just does it in a more visible and audible way.

That is to say, in a sense you get more boost for your money as you get the desired boost + a cut across more of the spectrum - so you only really need 'half' the amount of boost.

I don't like it though. Grin

having a quick bash at this now.. Smile

these unholy god-awful resonances are a bloody pain, i know it goes right through the break but its giving me more trouble with the snare than anything else at the mo.

seems the more i get rid of the resonance the more i loose the punch/clang of the snare Chin

anyone else having this problem, other problems?

please discuss :d

Yeah ..just thought we should get more discussion going on what we are each struggling with or finding easy to sort. Smile

Fucking clangy bastard break is giving me a headache now Grumble
Lol
Yeah I found a couple of the nasties and tried to pull them out a fair bit. Really noticed how eq affects the phase and wasn't really sure how to compensate.
Bump

if it were in a track I'd now only be STARTING to do things to it!

very first thing would be layering a huge KICKDRUM Teef (although there's serious subbass potential in that break Hahaha)
cycom Wrote:if it were in a track i'd now only be starting to do things to it!

this is exactly the point (and why it's called 'the prep')!

i know you know this cycom, but i wanted to really labour the point that getting to a 'neutral point' is the idea behind this.

i'll probably say this a million times before this is finished, but....


by the way, i really really am worried about patronising people and so on. please, let me know if i am being condescending Nervous Smiley

I quite liked the Nyquist eq. Good exercise in using your ears and not relying on numbers.
T minus 3 minutes before the sample goes...
