I haven't got a link to a compression table, but a word of warning. I'd been producing DnB for a few years and was happy with the overall sound - but like most producers, felt there was room for improvement. Future Music magazine had an article on compression and included some 'ideal' settings for both drums and bass, in relation to all dance music. I tried these new settings, which was compressing the elements quite a bit more than usual.
It was only when I went along to get the new tracks mastered, when I thought, "This sounds shit" and had to re-record everything again, with my original settings. The moral of the story is, if it sounds good, go with it. Compression is very much an individual thing, so just play around and have a good fiddle and then maybe adjust some settings on your compressor until you 've found a sound you're happy with. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jon O'Connor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2002 10:02 AM Subject: [dnb-prod] Re: Compression! > i have been told that online i can find 'average compression tables' i.e. a > rough estimate to the compression best added to instruments (vocals, drums, > bass, etc). does anyone know where i can find such a table/chart just for a > rough example? > > _________________________________________________________________ > Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com > > > --- > Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk > You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
