Step 10: Set Audio From to the Kick drum channel, the Threshold to -39.1dB, and the Ratio to 2.91. This 'ducks' the ride every time the kick drum plays, making the kick appear louder and the beat less messy. However, we still need a more consistent overall level for the ride, so add another Compressor.

  • Serban MatechThe beat sounds like a 2 year old fell over on one end of the control surface and walked over to the other. What have you done with the snare? So over processed! All dynamics here are lost... The tips are good but you should of composed a more alive and dynamic beat than what is presented. Don't insult people's intelligence by give them simple examples. Your reader base probably isn't 12 year olds.
