Purafied VU Compressor I admit I was a little bit sceptical about this, because it lacks attack/release settings. After using it for about a week...
2:25 you can hear the stabs better, for sure :) If I was you, I would record some minor chords, then cut them to small stab samples, then throw...
The "synth" stabs is most likely a high pitched chord from a hammond organ ... at least Wikipedia states they used sounds from a hammond and if...
It is our brain ... think of optical illusions: we've learned and experienced many things, our brain connects things with each other. In music...
Also try: Neunaber Audio Wet Reverberator Like the Big Sky the Neunaber Wet is also based on a guitar pedal (one of my favourite reverbs btw). I...
Pretty good, some nice ideas, especially inside the arrangement. I like the future bass kind of drop. The vocals are a matter of taste... 2000s...
BigSky for sure I would say. A little more subtle in it's modulations than the strymon to my ears. I always used BlackHole for more drastic...
What's your opinion on the Neunaber Wet Reverbèrator? I played guitar through it for some thirty minutes, got instant vibes from it. Maybe it's...
In addition to the already mentioned tips, get used to use reference tracks. The good thing in using them is, that they give you a fair...

Thinking that way you could also try Cableguys Shaperbox (Volume Shaper) ... choose a division that fits (for example 1/4 if it's four on the...
Soft synths can vary a lot regarding sound (...and workflow). Do you favour some combinations which you use a lot in your projects? Seeing youtube...
You need to hear "Scar Tissue" or any other song from Californication, if you want to know, how NOT to dial in your overall sound. Don't get me...
Yeah, this drummer's at the wrong gig.
I guess it's kind of a love or hate story, but another reverb I use quite often is DadaLife Endless Smile... it's designed for build-ups, but I...
My first guitar pedal was a ProCo Rat, which was a truely good choice, because I did not have any clue about guitar pedals back then. The rat is...
Yes, definitely helps to get into that lofi territory, I second your biggest advice!
When it comes to the groove or overall feel of the track, don't forget to mess up the timing of the drums (and other sounds) a bit. You might go...
