Virtual instruments for sale by Bluetechaudio? Take a recorder everywhere you go – a sound recorder, not a rudimentary woodwind insturment – or get a decent app for your phone. You never know when weather, people, industry, animals, cities or nature will provide you with the best atmospheric backdrop for your tunes, so be ready to record them when they do. Tweaking a filter on a preset within a soft synth and then calling it your own is rather cheeky, but do consider storing the parameters of a great sound from a synth, initialising that same synth and then gradually restoring the stored parameters to approach the original sound.
This nonlinear hearing phenomenon was first written about in 1933 by researchers Harvey Fletcher and Wilden A. Munson and although the data and graphs they produced have since been improved upon, they were close enough that ‘Fletcher-Munson’ is still used as a shorthand phrase for everything related to ‘equal loudness contours’. Generally, you should be able to do the best balancing at low volumes (this also saves your ears from unnecessary fatigue). Loud volumes are generally poor for creating an accurate balance because, as per Fletcher-Munson, everything seems closer than it is.
Obviously, this is a pretty undesirable ‘phenomenon,’ and it’s one of the main things to be aware of throughout the whole writing, recording, and mixing process. It’s also one of the main reasons EQ was developed, which can be used to carve away masking frequencies during the mixing stage. Our audio trick? Avoid masking problems during the writing and arranging stages by using notes and instruments that occupy their own frequency ranges. Even if you’ve taken precautions, masking will still sometimes occur at the mix, and it’s difficult to determine why certain elements sound different solo than they do in the full mix. Although the root notes/dominant frequencies of the sound have the space they need, the sound harmonics (that also contribute to the overall timbre) appear at different frequencies. These may still be masked, which is a point where EQ might come to the rescue. Read even more details on Buy Audio and Midi plugins.
You can get the perfect sound from a single source, but when you layer things up, your sound gets bigger and better. You can do this to almost any sound. Layering is an essential technique of sound design. However, pay attention to details as your sounds must match. Do your layers mask each other? Do the sounds complement each other? What happens when you separate them? Believe me, it sounds easy. But it is time consuming and takes a lot of patience. However, it is worth the experimentation. It makes a huge difference at the end. Remember, our ears can be easily tricked into not knowing when one sound ends and another begins . It is a psycho-acoustic phenomenon that layering can take advantage of. If done right, you will read it as one big textured sound.
