KORG Gadget dnb Production Tricks │ Part 1 Drums - haQ attaQ 179
KORG Gadget dnb Production Tricks! In Part 1 we are breaking down the drum section of a Drum and Bass project and having a close look at what's going on inside the FX inserts. I am impressed with the KORG app team as they've kept on working on Gadget. Not only adding more fun modules but also making Gadget more useful with channel strip processors.

Thank you...that was good...is the side chain compression the same like parallel compression?
likey. thanks. dnb is always great.
I can't be the only one that, when hearing the phrase 'drum and bass', finds the Frazier theme running through their head?
@ugb1 No parallel compression is something different.
Side-chain compression works like this. The compressor listens to a signal that tells it when to compress. So it's basically just a regular compressor that is being told when to work instead of working all the time.
Parallel compression. Is a technique in which one tries to achieve "upward compression" using a compressor that works with "downward compression".
It's pulled of by basically splitting the signal and passing one half through a compressor, while the other half remains uncompressed. You then mix the result together. One can add more compressors to the chain In parallel if one has a lot of them or if a certain result is sought after.
Ive never used this technique myself though as I'm not that good of an audio engineer.
You can achieve this by just duplicating a track in Gadget and setting the compression on one channel to quite some extreme values then zero the channel fader and slowly mix with the channel you duplicated from.
Especially for drums a must have technique. You do not need a lot of level on the compressed channel. Maybe you need to EQ a little to taste but try it out the result is quite something. I use parallel compression all the time. Couldn't do it without.
Very nice video, in particular those close -up shots, which really help peeps like me to follow what you're doing. Still not quite grasping why you need two instances of London, one muted. Why couldn't the filter be applied to just one? I really must spend more time with the updated Gadget...if I can tear myself away from Blocs Wave.
Good presentation, always interesting to see how others use these tools.
@Nkersov Sure I could have used the side-chain in that manner. But I wanted the side-chain only to listen to the Kick drum. Even if one filters of highs and mids, the result can be somewhat muddy.
When when working with fast tempo music like DnB I want my side-chain to be really quick and not linger for too long.
However when working with Dubstep-like music, I kind of like using audio to trigger the side-chain. And in those cases I do use full drum signals (filtered to be a bit muddy). Since the genre is generally more slow paced then DnB, I don't really need my triggering to be as fast.
Nice video as always, @jakoB_haQ
Like the simple way you use the sample in Bilbao. I must get round to doing this more often and not always relying on Gadget's in built drums!
Respect! You now how it works. I will wait for the next part. After the episode is finished you really secret sound will be next, Techno ;-)
