When you become a professional producer like me. You feel it is only right to expose some of your production techniques to the wannabe producers (cough, cough!) such as yourself. I look upon this duty as karma Big Grin

So here is tip no1.

Sidechaining is a bit of a bastard at times. One problem I find occationally, never mind how well you do you side chaining values in the Mclass compressor, your bass and beats still sound a bit crap. IE. the bass shoots up to loud when the beats stop rolling.

'So then, almighty one, how can we mortal ones over come this problem'? I hear you beg. Huh

Well the secret is this. After you M-class compression unit. Stick in one of those cheap nasty compressor, located at the bottom of the device list and set the level to the apropriate setting ie. limiting the bass volume, so the bass does not shoot up to high. Happy

Feel free to send cash and postal order to me.

Consider yourself blessed By BrUciFeR Devil

PS. I havn't used this technique on any of my tunes uploaded yet, but....

hahah i'm not worthy bruce!! not wirthy i tell ya!! but nice one mate, will give it a little try, i only have used sidechaining in one tune of mine so far, i had that same problem you were talking about but managed to get round it with enough tweaking on the m-class, but i've tried to get into the habit of getting the EQ (of kick and sub) right first and foremost and in future only use sidechaining as a last resort or for pure effect

If the volume is shooting up too much then you probably have the settings wrong on the compressor Tongue
