not enough power

[Digital Psyence]

I have been working on this a couple of days ago & i was very happy with the result, but now it doesnt feel like the track contains the same energy as it had first, i hope you can give me some advises, i think its my bassline that migh be a liiiittle to low, but try & listen (its only a loop yet)

 

The track

[Various®Artist©]

Well I think its sounds great,

and i'm also familiar with the phenomenom when its suddenly sounds different...

happens all the time, you need to take it naturally =]

 

A little thing that may help is adding some sub frequencys to the kick, add another sample of kick to another channel and lo-pass it at around 90Hz (wherever you get your best resault) and play it together with the regular kick =]

 

cheers, and tell us how it got out ;]

hey good idea, thanks!!

 

Only worries i have left now is if i can "lift" the rest of the beat the same way

. It feels like everyone uses a lot of time & effets on hats, crashes & so on, but i cant seem to get my own to sound like i want them, any tips?

[gruzina]

heya

nice sound

but i think that the you should turn the volume down

and i would like to know where i can get this nice sample of the spacial drums in the biginning of the track

like jamaica drums

Look m8 it depense on your private taste. you should do what sounds nice for you, but maybe it would be helpfull to know what tracks contain the "lifted" 'everyones' sound you mean? would be easier to help geting some specific resaults =]

I think you need a different kick. It's a bit too soft in my opinion and lacks a hard thump in the lower end of the frequency range. I do like the kick, but I think if you want more energy something with more of a mid range snap and low end thump would help. Nice snare sample too. I love natural acoustic sounding snares.

Hi, yes you were right about the kick, & it have been changed now, i will upload a new version right away so you can hear! The bassline is also different now, if its good or bad i dont know, but i have it the same way as you - i also get really frustrated about the sound of the bass

Hmmm....i checked it earlier, & it worked fine, but im at work now, so ill check it when i get home (7:30AM)

 

btw, the tempo have been changed from 136 to 144bpm

[reflector]

Hey all, my first post here. Woo!

 

Glad I found you guys... As for this track, it sounds really great. I havent heard the newly processed version, but the original is still nice. Agree that the bassline needs a big more punch, EQ the hell out of it. What machines/software/softsynths did you use in the creation of this track mate?

Hi Mike/Reflector, & welcome !!

 

For this track all drums & fx samples are found on the net - except the kick

 

SoftSynths used: Bassline > Z3ta+, Fx-a-like sound: Absynth 2

 

Hardwaresynths: Lead > Novation ks4 (very similar to V-station VST)

 

 

So the track is actually build up of completely nothing, but with loads of effects on

 

The old & new versions of the track are unfortunately the same file, i lost the old one by a mistake

[reflector]

Thanks for the welcome, and the info too.

 

Your track has alot of clarity. was wondering what in particular helped you to achieve such a clear sound? (apart from a good ear for it) :-)

 

im just getting to grips with learning to use compression and EQ'ing, was wondering how you went about compressing and eqing the track.. cheers. :-)

Well, if its the lead youre talking about i just tweaked the filterfreq on my novation ks4, it has a very clear sound as it is.

 

its updated once again now, and i have added another lead, made with V-station, check it out & tell what u think about it

 

Listen

[Digital Psyence]

By the way, after listening closer to the main beat (drums, kick) it doesnt feel like it have enough "power" what do you think i should do? Could it be to low, to centered (panning), the choice of used samples or something 4th??
