i am after help on compression processes with sequenced, sample based music (in this case hip hop, with programmed samples drums, samples, sub bass, and some live instruments - genrally relatively few elements).
can anyone give genreal advice??
eg
- on compressing drum elements, is this normally done as one [ie all drums compressed together], or would you compress elements, such as kick and snare separetely.
- would you add some compression to all the elements in the track [eg samples and live instrumentation]
- how does bass relate to drums in compression
- what is a good starting point for compression ratios in sequenced music [i know ultimately it is what sounds best], especially on the drums
any help is mad apreciated - just after general tips at the mo (don't need to know about finalsation multi band compression for the time being
cheers tom
btw i'm using Sonar/atari
