Originally posted by DickieThijssen i believe tiesto definately used vanguard to create his bassline in his version of adagio for strings (typical gated sound) and also in nyana he used vanguard i think...

no
he used access virus

and thats right Mike Clark is tiesto's preset maker, he is selling a bunch of his presets early next year, iv had the chance to test a small amount of them, and its a 10/10 from me.

keep an eye and ear out for them next year.

Oh no, no, no !!!
Tiesto has a very big studio, he has many hardware synths, so what would he do with a vanguard ?
No, he has an Access Virus C (the best synth for me), more than 2000€, 16 parts multitimbral, 64 effects, 4 osc... It's the best of the best, it produces very POWERFUL trance sounds !!!!!
He has many others hardware synths too...

The vanguard is too limited... Good sounds, very powerful for a softsynth, but limited...

it's not about the machine, it's about the man behind it

anyway, back to the topic

the biggest ingredient is probably experience. Theese guys have done what they do for over 10 years, if youv'e done it that much then you prolly get a pretty good idea on how stuff should sound

some use engineers like tiesto and some people even do the mastering by themselves (not 100% about it but I've heard from pretty reliable sources that armin does that )

If i had to select one of the methods I'd go with "do everything by yourself" simply because you have more controll over what's happening with your own stuff (but on the other hand who cares about me )

nope ive never produced a track..... i thought it was obvious tho that the 90% was clearly an exageration of it and merely used to say that it takes more then a awesome bank of presets to make a track.....

About all the stupid nonsense of mastering: It's about mixing, not mastering. Mastering is preparing the track for pressing it onto vinyl.
It's all about the mixing!
