Bippy Bo word

[@sebastianstam1900]

Bippy Bo too true

[@Eroe1]

it also makes you feel bad seeing them make amateur mistakes.... the volume on flstudio's mixer has no reason to go above the standard point and the hi-hat peak routing thing is kinda useless since the kick and hi hat hit at very different frequency ranges in the first place so they dont fight each other they actually kinda enhence each other... from a sound engineering point of view, but from a logical point of view, get a rapper like logic and give him any beat hell kill it

[@Dezdirectz]

John James Thanks

[@theninjaskrtel4754]

Yes you’re correct there.

[@Kadeybabes_]

I was wondering why he gave a long ass explanation lol

[@vegetablescankill]

Nico Guapo sidechaining is when you link a sound to a kick so that when the kick hits, the volume on the other sound (be it a synth or lead or in this case a hi hat), goes down so that the kick sounds like it is on top of the other sound and not 'muddy' or 'muffled'.

[@Backinthedase]

Yea! First things first, the Kick and the instrument/sound you want to SideChain have to be on separate channels... So you take the instrument/sound you want to sidechain and add the Compressor onto that channel. Then on the top right hand corner click the Side Chain drop down and choose your Kick channel. Then click on the silver rectangular Side Chain button and click "Peak" under the Detection side. Now you see where it says auto gain? Turn that to "off". Take the Attack nob (bottom middle nob) and put that onto anywhere between 5 to 10 milliseconds. Leave the Ratio (top middle nob) on 2.0. (increase the Ratio Nob if you want the Kick to cut out more of the signal on that specific instrument) And adjust the Threshhold nob (top left nob) to anywhere from -30. dB to -10 dB ... Play with that a bit (I usually use -10 dB Threshhold.. Put the Release Nob (bottom right nob) usually anywhere from 20. milliseconds to 150 milliseconds, I usually use 50 or 100 milliseconds somwhere around there.. And lastly, play with those nobs until you find the speed and strength you want your instrument to be sidechained with. 👍
