Broski you really do have the most interesting audio secrets, I don’t know where you find all these little gems, but I’m glad you do it. Thanks brother

I have always wondered what exactly Timbaland showed Kanye about how to mix his kick/808 on Stronger…

@greenleaf4127 10 ай бұрын

same here

@romulus_ 10 ай бұрын

couldn't have been anything crazy. that track doesn't have a particularly great kick. maybe just switched the sample, layered it with another sound, ducked something else in the mix etc.

He just switched it to a timbo neve tape 808 instead. Sound selection is key

Timbaland had a good ear for sound selection and blending sounds... Plus Jimmy Douglas added the final sauce to the mix.

Very interesting. Not to say I am in the same league, but for our first album we followed almost the exact same process. I programmed beats and instruments on the ASR10 and Juno 6 (but almost everything was on the ASR10), and then we bounced the sounds to tape via an Amek using SMPTE, driving the tape hard - pushing the needle into the red a lot. I also stacked our kicks and snares. Our perc and programmed instruments came back through the speakers so punchy. That natural tape compression and saturation is almost impossible to truly re-create in the digital realm. After our first record we lost access to tape and our sound was never the same. It took me years to realise why, and I have been trying to get back to that set-up ever since, although I sold my ASR10 a long time ago. That ASR10 was finicky to programme, but what a legendary unit

timbaland invented layering sounds? i guess just different times meant info didnt pass around as freely. nowadays, depending on who ya learn from, you learn about layering really early on.

@niqulusviii987 10 ай бұрын

Actually, you may want to give Teddy Riley that credit. Timbaland and Pharrell used to hang around Teddy once Teddy moved to Virginia. Teddy was a nut when it came to stacking 5 or 6 kick to make one kick sound (a tone for sub, punch, mid/body, attack/presence, etc) same with TRs snares. He still does it to this day lol! Timbo is a monster.

@@who_is_dis completely understandable. I personally would try to ignore that and focus on filtering what I think is valuable, as much as possible.
