Drumworks - A Deep Dive Into Drum Programming (pt. 2-3) (Patreon)

music taken from CamelPhat 'Cola (ft. Elderbrook) (gyrofield's Distant Relationships Mix),
and gyrofield 'Antiprojection' (Unreleased).  
Tutorial session recorded 27th Oct 2023.

Pt. 2 Notes:
- Reverb in individual channels
- Volume shaping vs Sidechain compression
- Midrange definition and mixing (& more on breaks)
- Detail and arrangement

Pt. 3 Notes:
- Legitimizing 'the wrong sample'
- Heavy-handed bus processing
- Distortion and 'the squeeze'
- Progression and development of the track

Rationale:
I've really felt lately that I didn't put out nearly as much music than I wanted. This prompted me to show the very current of gyrofield work and package together all the new techniques I've learnt into a series of tutorials. In this 84 minute installment it's a deep dive into several approaches I take to drum arrangements, design and mixing. This ranges from finding inspiration in individual samples, to writing to a vocal, to emulating the workflow of a drum machine.

I really hope you enjoy me wringing my creative brain out and giving out my perspective in its fullest!
