Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask COF, Crazy, or TheBuddha.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

Normally, if I wanted to kill a hi-hat bleed on a kick while augmenting the hi end, I'd probably use a multiband compressor at that frequency to try to kill the hat. What did you sidechain to the sample kick?

A gate and Dynamic EQ has always worked for catching the hihat bleed with my own recordings. It just wasn’t sounding right in this kick. When I ducked it, the kick got very pillowy sounding, which can work for a lot of genres, but metal needs that click.

For the sample: I used a plugin called DrumXchanger from Plugin Alliance. It allowed me to set a threshold from the source track, and simple insert a .wav of the new kick. Then it has a transient designer, filters, and a blend knob. Super useful tool.

Oh, now I understand what you did. Brilliant approach!

Yeah it will be a useful tool when I need it. It came with 4 drum kit sample packs, so I can replace/augment snares too if needed, as well as shells; though those don’t typically seem to troublesome. I was able to find a nice collection of metal kick and snares as well. I can also record a few of my own and use them.
