| Leec, we may have different goals in drum production but I disagree with the notion that compression somehow muddies up or makes unclear ghost notes and such. If anything it makes ghost notes more audible by making them louder. The trick is play with the attack and release settings. Also, I like to throw a gate on the final stage so there is not too much bleed through. I do agree that you should get the best sound possible by EQing before compression is applied. This is just personal opinion but I think the drums sound good but are a bit thin. The snare sounds pretty good. |
