Just threw this together in 10 minutes so excuse the extreme roughness of it

Another idea I'll probably never end up fleshing out

little Pierre-ified version at the end too

imagine paying for drumkits btw

I accumulated my drum library from a sample genie subscription

I mean one drum kit is a years worth of ideas at least, basically costs two meals

YO THIS CLEAN

yeah but... you can just get most of em for free lol

This is straight gas

my man

isnt that just the drake song that just leaked

wait it is?

bruh

clyp.it/eechlo2j Boom Bap beat loop(94-95 type)

yoo releasing demos im gonna re record/mix and master in the studio once this s*** blows over. i produced the beats as well as sung the songs. will be updating regularly. so far, i got a indie disco-funk track in there (dance) , a long ass kate bush/ radiohead inspired joint (im still alive, my fav) and a spacey trap song (get it). thank u to whoever listens.

I like the vibe, on the fourth bar chance up the drum pattern and do a fill with a double kick or something. Maybe reverb the ride from "impeach the president" that's a f***ing classic

Forgot to mention

Use the stock logic drummer and try to create some interesting patterns. Convert the patterns to midi, copy and paste the midi in another EXS24 egion where u have a kick, then another EXS24 region where u have a snare, etc

I like to put small amounts of wet reverb from space designer (the drum room one preset or small wet room 0.03 preset) on individual hits. Dry at 0db, wet from like -50db to -30db depending upon context. Then a bit more wet reverb on the hats bus, which goes into the drum bus. Compress the drum bus slightly and I'm even out the reverb levels and the drum loop will sound more cohesive.

Then send the entire drum bus to a 100% wet reverb. Sidechain the reverb send to the drum bus. Sometimes it takes 2 sidechains (same settings) to get it nice and flat. This way the reverb ducks out of the way when drums are hitting.

I'll screenshot my routing one sec

Hats -> Hat Bus

Hat bus -> drum bus

Drums bus -> drum reverb send

Drumslam/overdrive are both at a super low mix doing saturation here, PhatFX is just acting as a filter (turn off the limiter if you do this on your drum bus), neutron is doing some transient shaping, compressor is slightly compressing and has a makeup of +5db so that it'd clip before the makeup gain I was hitting -6db. Clipmax is after the compressor just clipping to remove the peaks.

The "vintage vca" compressor in logic has really nice saturation. It's based on the SSL Bus Compressor, if you ever see people using "the glue", that is based on the same thing

Wouldn't recommend copying my drum bus atm because I need to rework it in this context, I think I need to choose different kick/snare samples for the track I'm working on.

Interesting
Do most people normally route like that? Send anything from the instrument set bus than send it to another bus channel so getting the effect holistically can be easier (reverb, delay, echo, granulation, distortion)?

My buddy told me start uploading s*** on YouTube

We doing type beats now huh

lots of knowledge getting dropped by the goats

I wouldn't say "normally" because it's subjective, but it honestly just helps me stay organized. I'm not an expert by any means.

Utilizing different bus/parrallel processing helps a lot to conserve processing power in your computer. Instead of thinking "oh I gotta open these plugins, oh my hats all need to be dropped 3db I gotta open the mixer, I gotta spend a minute doing that" you can just drop the level or route to a bus

these are the different sends I can set up

Send 1 - Short Reverb, followed by an eq. You can automate the eq to create more movemnet
Send 2 - Long reverb, 5.5 second delay or something, also followed by eq
Send 3 - Parallel Distortion, followed by an eq
Send 4 - 1/8t delay. It sounds cool u can automate stuff to it and thats super useful. Followed by an eq.
Send 5 - Drum verb followed by sidechain or eq or both

watch dis @everyone

lotta cool tips regarding filtering and the creative process
