URS do make some nice plugins.IntotheBlue wrote:ok so please excuse the n00bness of this question, but when you guys talk about putting that rough rider compressor on the drum bus, you are just talking about putting it on my drum channel/track right? How do you achieve pumping just having it on the drum channel though, i would have figured it needed to be on the master track for that.
Also i use the impulse to play my single hit kick drum .wav files, but using that seems to alter the original .wav sample a little bit and takes out a lot of the punch (i've noticed toying with the decay knob helps fix that), do you guys use the drum rack or impulse for your kick samples?
another Sonalksis fan here,a HUGE fan that is....leedsquietman wrote:Sonalkis SV315mkII on the master buss, I can get this sounding (to my ears) as good as, if not better than, the SSL Master-G buss compressor as used on just about every record released in the 80s and 90s. It also works great on snare and guitars. Sonalksis plugins are made by ex Neve-AMS employees and sound very 'analog' compared to many other plugins, they also are 64 bit audio quality.
The SOnalksis uber compressor from the Creative suite is also seriously kick ass on drums, it does not do subtle like the SV315 can, but if you want to put your sound through a crusher, this baby does the job. I am a Sonalksis fanboy, if you don't already know

Thing sounds amazing though and you get all the different comps and eqstw1nstates wrote:Yeah UAD is a dsp card.
And, tbh, 9 times out of 10 i end up using the URS channel strip pro.
thx a lot, never used the group feature yet, now should i assume i want to group my kick drum as well as my percussion layers together? would it help to group my bassline in there as well or no?roach808 wrote:IntotheBlue wrote:ok so please excuse the n00bness of this question, but when you guys talk about putting that rough rider compressor on the drum bus, you are just talking about putting it on my drum channel/track right?

first select all tracks you have drums running on then group them together using the ? & g key. Once you have grouped all the drums together, slap the rough rider on there, congrats you have just made yourself a drum buss compressor.
It is my understanding, that you group instruments, you want to apply the same effects to, place in the same room and which are of a similar kind.IntotheBlue wrote:thx a lot, never used the group feature yet, now should i assume i want to group my kick drum as well as my percussion layers together? would it help to group my bassline in there as well or no?roach808 wrote:IntotheBlue wrote:ok so please excuse the n00bness of this question, but when you guys talk about putting that rough rider compressor on the drum bus, you are just talking about putting it on my drum channel/track right?
