Sidechaining Compression In Cubase

Probably most of you have heard pumping DJ beats with a bass-line where the amplitude of bass-line goes down when kick punches and then again goes up like a sinusoidal wave. This is mostly used in dance tracks. We call it side-chaining compression technique, where we compress the bass-line signal according to the jump in amplitude of kick drum. How to do it ? 1. Create a drum track(Groove Agent- any patch) and draw 4 kick notes in 4/4 grid (simple beat). 2. Create a bass track from any VST plugin and draw a single note spanning over all 4/4 grid for 16 notes. You can create a melody also but that should be continuous. 3. Add a normal cubase compressor to bass-line track and click on side-chaining icon to activate side-chaining. Use the same setting given below to achieve side-chaining. 4. Go to drum track and select side-chaining track under send signal. Now play the track and you could hear that pumping bass sound. So basically you are done with basic side-chai...

How to make a cover song ?

For that I use my CASIO CTK-3000 Synthesizer and a Digital Audio Workstation(Primarily Cubase) or you can say DAW. 3. In simple words, DAW is the software used to create a music track. 4. You can create melody patterns, chord progression, beats and many other things using a DAW. 4. In music industry, First the track is prepared, then singer records over it and finally Mixing & Mastering engineer do their jobs. 5. So you can summarize whole process into these three steps :    a) Track Programming    b) Vocals Recording    c) Mixing & Mastering Track Programming 1) I use my Casio synth just for MID...

Recording Vocals : Do's & Don'ts

I have seen lots of people asking questions about how to properly record the vocals so that it sound like pro. So in this post, I will tell you how to do it. Firstly don't use headphone's mic(its obvious but lots of people do it ). There are some budget-friendly microphones out there in market and some of them comes with kit which has Mic stand, Shock-wave mount, etc. Check this article : http://www.wirerealm.com/guides/top-10-best-microphones-recording-vocals I am currently using Blue Yeti Usb Microphone and its decent. Now that you have a good mic, you can start recording. Follow below tips while recording : 1) Always use pop-filter to avoid sudden peak in recording due to some sounds like 'ph', 'bh'. 2) Adjust the volume of your microphone such that your recording software don't cuts off the signal when you sing too loud and it should also be not too low so that clarity vanishes. 3) Don't apply any effect on your audio-track in DAW while ...
