At the multitrack stage what dynamic FX do you typically add to what individual sounds if any? So I'm talking loudness maximizer (Waves L1 multimaximizer or UAD limiter) and/or compression (Waves C1 single band or C3 multiband) and in what order.
Kick
Hats
Snare
String sounds
Percussive keyboard sounds with quick attacks and quick releases
Other keyboard sounds such as risers and what not |

| i don't usually slap on fx out of tradition, i try to see whats necessary. i dunno there is no recipe, i can't give you a shopping list of what you must do to get the [your favourite artist] sound |

| sausage fattener is easily abused. you're better off learning how to properly process your sounds giving them their own colour and warmth. |

| Or you can just use sausage fattener |

| If you don't use sausage fattener you will never become a pro. |

Kick: parallel compression then BT 5 band eq, then magnetic II. I tried a slight sausage instead on the kick too, that's fun to use on the classic 808-909 sounds.
Hats: a distortion effect, or an exciter. Sometimes I just take ozone and use the harmonic exciters in there.
Snare: heavy parallel comp in live, or transient master, BT 5 band, then parallel sausage or distortion/bitcrusher/bit reduction, most preferable the highs only at low volume
String sounds: Magnetic II, izotope vinyl, ozone for stereo and M/S control.
Percussive keyboard sounds with quick attacks and quick releases: enveloper in logic, transient master in maschine/guitar rig/etc... eventually a bitcrusher in logic where I disable everything except the fader on the right that I put down a bit to soft-clip without artifacts. |

No intention to take this off topic, I have never heard of sausage fattener! Perhaps I should buy a bottle?
Are you guys doing post FX on most of your tracks? To clarify my perspective, I use various drum samples on a hardware sampler, as well as synths. I can't say I always have the exact sound I want when recording, so I will EQ in post, but mostly try to make sure anything that gets recorded is already what it should sound like.
I'm no purist, and could care less about software vs. hardware debate, just trying to better understand where the need arises?
Thanks for the topic, and input!
edit: I prefer parametric EQs instead of graphic |
