Ableton Forum

Some EQ are more transparent than others. So yea if you want transparent EQ, Ableton Live one is fine I guess. If you want to use an EQ with colour (SSL Waves EQ for example) use 3rd party. What exactly do the terms "transparent" and "colour" mean when referring to EQ? Always hear people saying it ...

So with all this said. Can anybody recommend a good EQ plugin with and analyser?
I just got the demo of the Fabfilter Pro-Q.

The ability to move around return tracks a simple drag and drop to rearrange them.

What sort to return tracks do you guys like to setup? So far I have a return for drums, percussion, bass and reverb.

Am I being thick, or wouldn't the easiest way be to set up a send FX channel and use this for all tracks you want to parallel process (not just for compression).

What is the best way to send our files online?

I think you need to click "Back to arrangement" which I think will be red and to the right of "OVR" up the top. Hope that helps.

Sweet cheers. Just had a look and on the main page it has a link called "Dance and Electronic Music" which had some good links. Must have missed it before :p

Is anybody subscribe to some good ones?

Mainly D&B, Dubstep and Electro

Unless they make your ears hurt, leave them in (...he says, having been guilty of making tunes with ear blistering highs in the past - it takes some practice to get the balance right!). If you are using an mp3 as a mastering reference that wo...

I have 2 return tracks. The first one has nothing on it and the second one has the compressor then I send my drums to both of those return tracks. Is this the right way to do it?
Thanks
