Re: What are your fav plugin fx for studio & live performance

Here's some pretty decent FSU plugs. http://www.kammerl.de/audio/ They are quite fickle so you have to spend some time with them to get the best, but they're free and awesome. The gui's are pretty rad too, they have naked women on them with animal heads... BTW they do work in a live setting, just do...

Re: Bassline for Bass heavy House/Techno

Sounds like a fm synth to me, or subtractive synth with fm oscillator modulation and possible some pulse width modulation on a square wave. Operator might be able to do it, not likely though. Never heard it do good garage type bass. The stock fm synth in Logic is very capable of that sound, with a f...

Re: Mixdown

Warning: Rant It couldn't hurt to have a dedicated mastering professional sweeten up your mixdown. Although, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try it for yourself though. The more you do it the more you'll learn. As these things go there are no rules, mix your track with a mastering chain on the main ...

Re: Resisting the Push

Totally going to jump on that piece. My APC40 is taking a crap on me, not because it's built poorly, but because I've treated it like shit and traveled with it extensively. I'm surprised it lasted for about 4 years I believe? I think Push will actually lend itself to live performances better than th...

Re: Analogue Synth Reccomendations

cheers for the words, I'm not looking to spend a lot at allmaybe $200-$300 so super basic. Just want something to physically prgram rather than turning knobs on a screen all the time! Going to be hard to find a knobby analog synth at that price range. I'm sure there are some out there, but you're g...

Re: Is there a VSTi equivalent of Logics EFM1?

Is there a VSTi equivalent of Logics EFM1?

Yeah, so I was able to mess around with Logic for a bit today and had a play with the synths. I must say I was very impressed, especially a lot of the synth bass presets. A lot of them had a really nice thick bottom end and the envelopes seemed really punchy, but also had a nice roundness as well. M...

Re: Ableton Push: Questions & Answers

I noticed in one of the videos there appears to be two velocities while in step sequence mode. Is this dictated by by how long you hold down the pad/s or the pressure applied to them?

edit: never mind, I just watched it again and it seems there is an accent button that was pushed.
