00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,200
What's going on? It's your boy Duann Barrino. Not Just Music Podcast back with another one

2
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:16,160
All right, let's get into it

3
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:20,320
Today's compression talk is going to be about the FETCB

4
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,440
Listen very free. I know that's why you are here. That's totally fine

5
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,840
At the end of the day, I just want to show you free

6
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:36,640
Things that are very good to have as tools for those of you that are just beginning or you're already

7
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:42,400
You know you're moving along. You know you can add something to what your set is already won't hurt

8
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:47,800
But the FETCB is a very nice compressor by analog obsession

9
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,240
I'm sure a lot of you probably don't

10
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:56,240
Lean towards certain plugins because the case of maybe namesake

11
00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:01,240
You know namesake is a very big in a very good thing, but at the same time

12
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:06,240
Sometimes you try to follow and model others

13
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:13,240
To mimic a sound in nature for what they do it for and when you really need to learn and come up with your own

14
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:19,240
Kind of concept. It's okay to break rules. You know it's not like a rule book. That's really set

15
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:25,240
You know there are certain parameters and things that you may look into that may change along the way, but at the same time

16
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:33,240
Your ears are still going to tell you the story the ears are where you know that's what we need to train more on

17
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:39,240
Okay, but again the compressor the FETCB is very very very nice

18
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,240
Let's check it out. I'm gonna cut it on and off

19
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:47,240
I'm gonna show you a couple things that I did and what I'm using it for currently is on a bass guitar track

20
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,240
Okay, so let's take a listen to that

21
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,240
Now let's cut it on

22
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:56,240
Now let's cut it on now let's see what I did to it so far

23
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:01,240
This is cutting it on let's engage it here we go

24
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:13,240
Now let's cut it on now let's see what I did to it so far this is cutting it on let's engage it here we go

25
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:21,240
Now let's cut it on now let's see what I did to it so far this is cutting it on let's engage it here we go

26
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:27,240
This is cutting it on let's engage it here we go

27
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,240
Off

28
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,240
Off

29
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,240
On

30
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:59,240
Off

31
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:14,240
Now the subtleties in what you understand is when you're compressing I'm really only touching a few knobs on this

32
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:24,240
The first thing I'm touching is of course my threshold I will always adjust my threshold to be nowhere near engaging the compressor

33
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:31,240
Then I'll start to work my way into it my ratio kind of varies from time to time

34
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:36,240
I like to start around 3 to 1 and then work my way up or down from there

35
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,240
Just depends on what instrument or instrumentation that's going on

36
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:57,240
Then of course in the end I look at my attack and my release how fast I want it to release and how much I want it to really attack that transient or those you know whatever the case is the sound that you're you know compressing

37
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:03,240
The biggest lead at the end that a lot of people don't really touch is the output

38
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:17,240
I like to touch my output in the end because the case of you're taking away when you're compressing so you want to add back you know what you're taking away

39
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:28,240
It doesn't have to be a whole lot of increase you know you don't want to bring too much volume out of the compression you can in some cases but most cases you don't want to push the volume too much

40
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:36,240
The case of you know when you're you know when you're ducking that much from that sound or that transient

41
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:45,240
At the end of the day Analog Obsession did a great job with this I will leave a link below you need to check this out

42
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:56,240
Put your own ears to it it's not about what I say you know it's more so about what you feel because that's what it's going to come down to at the end of the day with all of the music that you're going to make

43
00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:08,240
Be open to it you know as again this is free this is very free and all in all if you feel you know leave your comments below let me know what you think about it

44
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:17,240
If you've done something different with it please share that at the end of the day we all are in this one community we should all be sharing sharing is caring alright
