bars 19-22: w/ an improvement to reduce clipping, which is sidechaining the bass (which sidechains the other percussion) with the amplified signal of the clap used for the reverb.
its all very complicated, check it out! and i am working on many new tracks, just cant get too picky or else nothing is good, i will try too hard :)
lol yeah ikr, im not really sure what they call what you are talking about, im not really sure what this is called but in a way it could be a multiband compressor if you select which frequencies you want to compress...you could do this with sidechaining it with a signal you want highs to be brought out in, and then use a lowpass instead of a highpass...but targeting all frequencies at once, i think that is a multiband compressor..
damn i finally understand this, and wonder is theres a compressor irl or in other DAWs that pays attention to frequency when it sidechains, as in sidechaining a bass with a low kick will leave the highs on the bass
but i mean ur never really gonna get away from it hitting the red mark even if you do this...this example is bad because the clap is very soft and even that was clipping...but it does help with clipping in the lower registers and you can do alot more with compression and things to help with that...but i mean as long as you cant hear clipping i wouldnt worry about it..
so this really helps reduce conflict between the low frequencies of different tracks. and then that thing from bars 19-22 is just splitting the offbeat clap and sidechaining it to the bass so the bass gets quieter on the offbeat because it was clipping a little bit. but if my computer could handle doing this for EVERYTHING it would be a lot easier to get tracks up to the level i want to and not have them clip a bunch...but unfortunately i cant... :(
but at bars 9-16, when i add the bass, that is sidechaining the non-highpassed channel ALOT and makes it so you can barely hear it. but since the sidechained version of the non-highpassed channel is split and connected to the sidechain input of the highpassed channel, this allows the highpassed channel to come through because the non-highpassed channel is being sidechained by the bass and is so soft.
so what you have is the beat from bars 1-8, right? it is split into a non-highpassed channel and a highpassed channel/signal/whatever. that is the non-highpassed channel you are hearing and it is sidechaining the highpassed channel with itself ALOT so you can barely even hear the highpassed channnel.
@Aron
this is basically used when sidechaining a bassy sound to another bassy sound...ill try to explain it all here cuz too much in the description = no good for my computer...idk why...
It sounds like it has not got much depth and it sounds a plain. What do you reckon you could do to change that. I think it is cool, But a another plugin would be cool to add to make those beats a bit sharper.
