Yes, that's right.
Well, I gave reason a whirl, and I won't cry if I have to live without it.
My conservative, but paying customers doing southern gospel and
country and more traditional recording don't need kong drum and
hiphop stutter effects and monster pads, they are happy with good
bread and butter sounds, and my classic rock guys like good solid
mixing with guitars and basses and real drums,
a little b3 some real horns, you know, all that old great boring stuff.
I'm really just a simple down home cat.
And providing service for simple down home folks.
We may never win a grammy, but we're making some good music, and
whether it's the guy that needa a demo
to get the gig at the local vfw, or the gospel folk doing ministry,
or someone who recorded their stuff in a trailer somewhere and needs
a rescue job because where they got it done on the cheap didn't know
how to get a sound,
a good grounding in the basics will keep you every time.
It's funny how technology changes, and we have more and bigger and fatter,
but good recording and the principals of getting a great sound
haven't ever changed.
I love to dabble in all sorts of music though, but my first love is
country and blues and roots music,
I just love to get a real drummer in here and mic up a kit, and
sculpt sounds like that, or sweet guitar rhythm tracks with capo in
differrent positions and alternative tunings,
and vocal stacks, those are really challenging,
getting everything to fit just right.
YOu can create about anything you want if you understand basic
routing and elements of what makes an effect.
A simple example is a gated reverb, sonar doesn't have any in it, but
you can sure make a good one from
using a standard reverb, and a noise gate with the right release.
and downward expansion.
and all that splitting up synths in to several bands of eq and
processing them differently, you can do that with sonar too, just
need to build buses and put different timed delays and filters on them.
When I was listening to the reason dmos, my brain was in over-drive,
the guy was showing how to do this and that, and when he said he
tweaked this knob, or that knob, to get that sound, I was translating
to what I'd do in sonar to achieve that same thing.
It's taking the long way around, but for us blind folks, it's the
only real way to get there sometimes.
Like sfz for instance, that'd be clunky and boring for sighted
people, but it gives us complete control of a sampler.
and playback.
I'm not saying sonar is the be all and end all, but out of all the
daws, it gives us the most basic building block and elements to work
with, and there's nothing new really in recording, all the hot shot
software is either samples, or physical modeling, now the faster
processors have given us better modeling, that's a developing
technology which could really have some nice supprises as time goes
on, but the basic elements of putting together sound in electronic
music are stil the same.
I love taking a simple sound, and putting it through effects, and
coming up with something completely different,
another simple example I had a hiphop kick drum, but it was only one
sample and boring, so I did eq automation and on the off beats,
changed the eq so it sounded like the beater was softer, so it made
that one sound be dynamic and sound like a different sample.
Same with toms, a snare, by using simple tools like eq and
compression, you can vary the sound enough to make it sound like
multiple samples, and be pretty convincing.
Changing the attack, and release and envelope, and all that kind of stuff.
And that's what I've discovered most complex synth sounds are, they
took a simple sound, and morphed it a lot of different ways, and then
put it back together.
