Compressing drum hits - 25:17 minutes
The secrets of drum sound design are revealed in this detailed video tutorial.
Reshaping existing drum hits to create new sonic textures by using a
compressor has been the mainstay of many sound designers. Controlling
and mauling frequencies and transients is a sure fire way to add life
into your drum samples or to create completely new ones.
Simple exercises like creating hard booming kick drums from a simple dead acoustic drum sample are but a few of the examples covered.
Understanding the processes and techniques entailed into creating new
drum textures requires a deep understanding of both waveform theory and
compressor features, and all this is exposed in this video tutorial.
