I think he just wants to make it because he cant.

I think some people need to swallow their egos with the whole "copying" thing. I see it more as "emulating to learn from".

Which in my opinion, is always a million times better than having no direction to aim for in the first place.

Its great to come up with something "unique" but in music "unique" dies as more people listen.
I'm sure when Gouryella first released Gouryella a lot of people were like "wow, its sooo unique" but now its just another good trance track. So being good doesn't make music unique, being new does.

JMO.

I did learn though I got closest with seperate filters for the snare and clap more than reverb or flanging or even compression. I also think the kick bathes the clap in a warm way like other people were saying which I wasn't really looking for. Amazing how the right kick could make EVERYTHING in a track sound that much better.

A "Ferry Clap"? lol, from which one of the hundreds of tracks he's released?

If you were able to do that w/out me telling you first "I was trying to make a clap like Ferrys from 'Beautiful'" you'd have approximately a million and one trance tracks with a million and one different but similiar sounding claps to run through your head first.

And if you were able to pick out one song, and they did sound the same, I'd say you spend wayy more time listening to pro tracks than me. Which isn't bad, but inevitably cuts away from your own time to practice.

It's the exact same snare/clap as from RockYourBodyRock

trying to disect something someone else has done is the best way to learn regardless of what craft you are trying to learn

No matter what anyone do, they`re never ever gonna sound like Ferry Corsten.
