Phil Collins-type gated reverb drum sound. Check it out!

[CHRIS]

On this particular song, I was going for a Phil Collins-type gated reverb sound using Superior Drummer 2. Please tell me how you like this song and how it can be improved. If you review my music, I will review yours. Here is the link to ‘Found Today’:

hi Phil Collins fan too:= ) i created a topic thread

if you want the best gated reverb : listen to his work and in concert in 85 (Chester with “only you and i know ” ) 90 (in the air live ) 94 : ) (drum intro)

but you worked: good !

Drums sound good.
Not sure about the bass guitar at all (sorry), it just sits way too out there for me and not good. It sounds far too chunky/pleccy (and off time at bits?) I think you should tame it a fair bit (especially when vox are on) and go for a bit of a U2 With or without you bass sound….more rounded and compressed?

You could maybe even sidechain it with the drums somehow to get them pumping together?

Keep at it.

xname and rallyboy101,
xname has resurrected a thread from almost 4 years ago, and I’m not sure you guys listened to the correct song. Make sure the song title is actually “Found Today”. It’s possible that the direct link for “Found Today” only works in the older version of soundclick. If you listened to the most recent song I posted on soundclick (“Fortify Your Faith”), it has a bit of a gated reverb sound ala Phil Collins, but less so than “Found Today”. Either way, I appreciate that you listened to my music and replied. I have been using the cheapest version of Cubase (AI8 as of lately, and possibly LE4 on “Found Today”), so I’m not sure if I can do side-chaining compression. I have used u-he Presswerk compression the last few years (on top of Superior Drummer 2’s compression), and it seems doing side-chained compression is an elaborate process with Cubase and Presswerk, if I can even do it. Curious if you guys are from a particular state or country. I’m always wondering where people are from when they comment on my music.

we have waken a boring man with a boring attitude with more ego than talent
keep your “””work”” for you : it’s the best thing to do
if you have a boring attitude full of s… with an incapacity to appreciate some words because your ego wins
so, go on with your music but just into your room : we don’t need f….bad attitude like that
with a boring music too (that’s what i really think)
Phil Collins will never like people like you quoting his legendary name : it’s as an insult for the fans in your words and in your music
your should be happy fans find your boring thread and Mister answers like a boring director
climb off your tree
the best musicians would never talk like that : before trying to learn your first chord in some years your should try to communicate with people (hard work for u)
go to your piano : the first chord to know would be an E major
please don’t try the others: take some years for this one please first

xname,
I have no idea what offended you, and I had no intention of offending anyone.
