OK, I know this is a stupid question, but what the hell is a "gog"?

Some kind of New Zealand "gig"?

Q.
 
Hey Q don't be dissing NZ gigs. Just remember who kicked whos arse in the last Bledisloe cup game. Ahhh that was swueeet....

Anyway a gog is the file type used by the Drumagog plugin - it's basically a whole collection of replacement drum samples that are triggered by the audio spikes. The beauty of gogs is that they're sensitive to variations in how the drums track was originally played, and it replaces the hit with the most appropriate sample
 
Coolness - I'll have to check it out - I'm currently using BFD.

I can't remember who kicked whose arse in the Bledisloe - it was too damn wet so I couldn't see the bloody ball let alone the scorecard!! :)

As somone in the press here said, "What the hell were we doing training up in Coffs Harbour with the sprinklers turned on? They should have bloody sacked the backline and replaced them with Thorpie and the rest of the Men 4 x 100 relay team!"....

Good job on sticking it to the Boks on the weekend! That was joyful to watch.... Nearly as good as another time I remember when Jeff Wilson thought he was going to score the winning try for NZ until he met a little man named George...

Oh yeah - and of course, last years World Cup semi-final!

:D Q.

Excuse me? You know about that too?

I thought it was a bad dream I had once, a long long time ago...

No actually, that was the World Cup itself that hasn't been to Kiwi shores for a long, long time...

But thanks again for beating the Boks up for us -- it will make it much easier for us to retain the Tri-Nations this year ;)

:D Q.

Ok, look I know you're Australian and all, but the thing is to be able to retain something, you have to actually have it in the first place.

They're our Silver Twins - the Bledisloe & the Tri nations, securely locked away in a cabinet here in Wellington, safe from sticky Aussie fingers for another couple of years at least...
 
ReGain.... not retain.....

You see, it's just very hard for me to say...

:( Q.

Jason I tried both of those out.

To be honest they wouldn't be my first choice. The kick has a nice slap but not much boom. I guess the boom probably tends to get lost in a mix, but I still like it there.

The snare is nice and tight but very dry, like it was recorded in the middle of the Gobi desert. My personal preference is for a crisp snare, with maybe even a couple of overtones thrown in.

But thanks anyway, I've added them to the collection....
 
Add about 3 db of low shelf at 100hz. These were designed to be used with your compression and eq. the snare is dry on purpose, if you add a little lexicon-ish reverb you are in business
 
BTW that is only one of 11 kicks I have, I'm sure there will be something more to your liking on the disk. That snare is a '70s ludwig chrome over wood, That is what they sound like (not very sensitive but with a big knock) I have another 37 snare gogssome of them are crisper and ringier (?) than others. Maybe I should re-think which sample samples I put up. These 2 work really well in a midrangey mix, but I realize other people might work differently than I do. What type of sounds does everyone want to hear?
