Next thing I do will include a break down that sounds like a trainwreck.

i like doing long drum rolls w/a 909 snare. works great for both building up, and breaking down. i start w/8th notes for 8-16 bars, then 16th note for about the same amount of time, then just keep ramping it up w/32nd's, and wrap it up w/double time 64th notes.

kills the crowed every time!

no, i'm not a hard-house producer...

j/k.

usually i go into VEH1/FX/Reverses/ and find a woosh. then i go into VEH1/FX/Hallkicks/ and find a boom boom. then i filter out the instruments and drop the drums. then i put the woosh in, shortly followed by the boom boom.

Originally posted by theognis1002 Hi I was just wondering some good techniques u guys use to do a proper buildup or lead in to a breakdown. i know its subjective... but what do you guys prefer or usually use Reverb? Snare/drum rolls? White Noise? Ive been trying to experiment but idk my lead in's into a breakdown are really iffy

If i cant get a good breakdown i make a song without breakdowns...I never have made a good breakdown.

all/any should sound pretty sweet.

Imo white noise and reverb have been getting worked pretty hard lately..its probably time for soemthing new! experiment

filter sweeps, filtering things in and out, and playing around with lfos that modulate filters.

I guess my answer is playing around with filters.

ring modulation


and triplets right before the takeoff
