What i like to do lately is to split the bass into two separate mixer tracks. Keep the lows/low mids in first track and the midhighs/highs in the other.



how do you actually do it?




Let's say that i have the bass playing in mixer channel #2:
I unroute ch #2 from the master mixer track and route it to ch #3 and ch# 4 so that the bass sound gets out from these 2 mixer tracks only.
Then add eq to each of them - and eq at will so that one has the lows (maybe lowmids too - depends on the original sound) and the other one has the mids...midhighs.
It's very easy to do this in FL, wouldn't know how to do it in cubase though...
Cheers!



Yes thats a good one. Made some really cool basses where i did this, and then apply some cool fx to the highpassed one (flanger, gater or anything else )

Use compressors creatively! You can do alot, especially with percussive sounds (short attack and decay) when adjusting the parameters (especially treshold and attack)... you can make it paddy even


Chop up pads and make leads




And... automate stuff! Make it alive! I think I almost automate something on every channel...           http://www.myspace.com/fragletrollet

he quality is much worse than the sound you're listening in comparison with the track before exporting



I have heard from some Cubase users about such issue, but

That is very debateble and i think it depends on the sequencer maybe...

I experience just the opposite (using Reaper). The track after mixdown sounds slightly better than while playing live. Maybe, because some plugins and/or Reaper itself use kind of oversampling when rendering offline, don't know. Also, some plug-ins (e.g. GlissEQ) automatically switch to better quality algorythms when they are informed of offline rendering.




Wow this seems weird... Wouldnt the manufacturers of the sequencers really make sure that exporting the track (with the highest available quality settings ticked) should be better than any recording live?

Also, when my trax are finished, the cpu is so high that it would probably be difficoult recording a clean signal without glitches and such hehe...


Anyways a good tip instead of bouncing individual trax... a nice workaround in FL


Do you have any links to tests comparing the difference of bouncing or recording live?


Gotta get a spdif cable

Tip of the day:

Put a stereoexpander on master channel (Steinberg stereoexpander is ok) , keep the slider on the middle position most of the time, and automate it in breaks, from most narrow to most wide state. Creates great effect!           http://soundcloud.com/aedem

if
you already wrote this
then
sorry
else

take a sample, reverse it, put a reverb on it, then reverse it back again. it gives a nice lead in effect.

end.

yeah, this makes fun effect on vocal samples especially.

Btw, Audioease Altiverb has a "reverse" button, so this trick can be done without bouncing to audio.

That's not really the same, I believe.
As when you bounce a sound, reverse it and apply reverb, this could give you seconds of inverse reverberation before the sample even starts.
This is not possible with reverbs which include an inverse option.

As far as I know:-)

this is the same try altiverb

Of course, you have to move your sample or midi-clip left a little, to compensate the delay, when using this realtime.

In Cubase, when you rename a track and hit Enter while holding Shift all the parts and events on the track will rename also! hehe
