Stereo Modular Insert
Posted: Thu Jul 15, 2010 1:59 pm
I had to recalibrate all of my patches recently and I have always had to use Filters to get rid of frequencies I don't like on Band Pass Sweeps. It works but I found a much better way to do it while retaining the high resonance sound I crave.
The Filters were not very surgical so I thought I would get some advice from a fellow Scoper, and then apply that trick inside of a Prowave preset so I wouldn't have to keep a Compressor and EQ in the routing winsow 24/7.
Now I have the exact resonance I want while doing BPF sweeps, and have eliminated the low mid crap that was making my sweeps unsmooth and uncool.
I first run the preset through a nice EQ that can do various notches,parametric, shelf and cuts. Then reverse the curve so the threshold level of a compressor can latch onto the desired frequencies only.
I do this by placing the EQ in an insert with a stereo comp.
The EQ has the exact opposite of a curve I used to cut with. This way the sidechained EQ can get latched onto by the threshold of the compressor. Much better results this way, and it only pops in for certain presets instead of wasting DSP sitting in the project window.
Ankyu....
Nice Compressor from Shroomz too. Never needed one in Modular until now, but it works really well and as usual is a fine looking Lass too.
