<Electro><WIP> Unnamed

Postby the4thImpulse » 14 Apr 2013 12:54

I have recently been working on my 'club' sound, as in music that would sound great on a large system. This is far from done, just tring to get criticism on the main riff as well as the bass nature. Is it too repetitive even for 'club' music?

Kick needs more oomph at 80-120hz range. What you have now won't translate well into bigroom — kicks will lose all definition it you won't even hear them.

Yeah, definitely agree with HMage. The kick lacks some more subby oomph. Adding some sound effects or interesting little hooks in the area where just the bass and drums are playing would definitely make it more interesting. Not much else to complain about, though. I'm liking the simple bass sound.

When I first read that I disagreed, at the time I believed the kick was fine even after testing it on a club system. I tried it out though and it did make a great difference! it really brought out that oompf I didn't initially think was missing. Thanks for that :D

That's the plan now!

It doesn't sound very "clubby" to me (as in the melodies and things). But what do I know, I've never actually been in a club, lol. I would also add some sidechaining to the bass to make it duck. But that's also purely opinion.
