Hello, I can safely say I no longer have technical issues.
Now the real issue is this:
I am wondering if anyone knows how to give the entire drum kit a ‘softened’ effect. (and no, EQ-ing has nothing to do with what I am talking about).
The equivalent analogy in video is this – in soap operas they have that softened diffusion filter – that makes the screen warm and diffuse with a dream-like quality to it… where the sharpness is slightly made softer – not necessarily duller, its actually still clear, but the resolution has this softened quality radiating the edges. So think of what the equivalent would sound in audio.
Is there any way to do that to the drums? To make them more softer and warmer? Or is this all based on after the fact processing – possibly outboard?
For example think about the Axe FX guitar modeler or the Access Virus synth – both have a very softened quality about them yet are two very high fidelity items. Words cannot explain the vibe that I mean here, but these two instruments are two of the greatest pieces of musical instrument technology on the planet. How can I match this sort of warm, softened, yet still sort of gooey vibe in the drums? How can i make them warm in a soft way?
