Hip Hop Beats 101 compression

It has been said before that the recording is an art form. Well, it's true. Registration, as anything else it takes patience and practice. Most of the tools used in the registration process can be quite simple. You buy a new box multi-fx, sign, however, to start, check that the reverb preset room and the baby …. Yes, it's simple. Unfortunately after buying a new compressor plug it, turn it on and ………. And now? The application of compression is a very subjective agreement. When compression is used correctly intend to be a subtle matter. Sometimes, the difference between a good recording, and a brilliant career, is how the engineer of compression applied to your tracks.

The Magic Box

Compression for those who have never used or even that the process is a necessary evil, I fear. The compression allows us to control the dynamic signal coverage. Compression also mistaken ear to the perception of increasing amounts of a signal. I mean, it's soft as the strongest signal, while silent, the strongest parts This makes the signal more consistent. When applied correctly, the compression helps us to strengthen our subjects, making them fatter, and control dynamics, we can weave all the elements of our journey together in soundscape. The problem, however, sometimes during the execution of a signal through the compressor, for the time actually heard of work, you may already be in the danger zone on it. Think about it! It is also worth mentioning that many engineers slightly compress some instruments on the road to multi-track or DAW. Thus, lowering the highest parts of the signal and return of parts calmer, you can increase your levels all over the recording device. The mix engineer will apply further compression (believe me) during the mixing phase. How much to add compressive front-end will depend on the signal itself (ie a low voice, etc.), style of music, and dynamic range recorded signal. We hope that the sound engineer does not slam the voice or an instrument very difficult at the beginning of the recording process, because He will be based engineer with a possible train wreck and no other options at the end.

Aladdin's Lamp?

When you think about it, the controls of a compressor are simply asked the operator, the basic questions to help the compressor to fill your commands and wishes. One of the first questions that arises is "What is the connection teachers make?" If you're new to compression, and you want a hotter signal going to a band or a workstation, a safe bet is a ratio of 2:1 to 4:1 ratio. Very in-depth clinical resources within the network to examine what the term "relationship" means, but the theory is, the higher the ratio, the higher the pumpkin. Speaking squash the comp / Engineering will ask when to apply said crash, it is time to reach threshold control. Threshold said the compressor "that is I need to apply this relationship that I've already said. "When the signal reaches above the threshold, which is when the compressor starts to kick in

That attack, my lord?

Then the model / Engineering Asked about the attack and output parameters. I think that is where most people perplexed because the controls in our comp / genius, in fact, all inter-with each other. If I want time to find my perfect fit, I will begin my review by the creation of the release (yes, release) for the second half of a second as a reference point. The control of attack is the comp / Engineering ask the question: "Once the signal goes above the threshold of Master I would be part of the signal through before the start of compression? "In most cases, the answer is yes! With the attack time s together with the project / Genius rapid establishment, when the signal goes above the threshold, the compressor with a shark bite precision, which may eventually cause the sound signal rather dull and lifeless. Note that here, there is this magical place, you must use your ears. To stop the attack, which left parties yourself by the signal (in milliseconds, so keep that in mind) before the comp / Engineering finally kick in. The effect can be down right magical. You may have a gain reduction meter on your machine. This counter tells you when the compressor is running, and when it is not. You are safe if the stronger parties to signal access more than 3 dB of gain reduction.

When to let go.

I think we all agree that there is a large difference in decay times of a sustained note down to the water tap in a box. So time output will not fit all. The adjustment of the release is the comp / Engineering want to know when to release its control over the signal of death after the signal falls below our threshold. Again, you must use your ears. If the signal is compressed to be quickly and immediately released, the result would sound very strange to say the least. If the signal is weak, so if your publication is between one second and one second and a half, depending on the style of music is the recording, the release may well be where it is.

But where is the magic figure?

Sorry There is a magic number. But perhaps there is a good starting point. For the compression of the light patch in the compressor station, we'll start with a ratio of 2:1, a musician working at a level that will be used during recording. Home adjust the threshold at which the gain reduction meter is activated than-3dB gain reduction as the strongest parts that the player plays. For those who need a number for the attack time and release, I could start with a 5ms attack and use your ears to fine tune from there. Output, still in second half of a full second to start, but ask yourself, this instrument has a rapid deterioration or slow decay. After using your ears to refine, if it sounds good, then it is good!
