Hi guys,
 
I got a nice load of responses to the other video I put up. So here's a few more crappy productions showing the Cakewalk Transient Shaper and a few different instruments to explain the method to my madness. They come in 3 parts.
 
Part 1: The first video is more or less explaining what, when and why you might want to consider a plug like this as well as some other "feed your head" stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0D1xKbytt0
 
Part 2: In this one, we work on kick and snare. We'll also talk a little about verb, gated verb and width control over the verb.

Part 3: We finish talking about some other snare goodies and I show you how you can also use a compressor to get a similar result as well as what another company's Transient plug can sound like. (no worries Bakers, the TS64 holds precidence and so do other Cake plugs lol) We'll also cover toms and bass guitar and you'll hear more of my opinions on things in general.

Hope you guys enjoy these. If you have any questions or anything, please feel free to ask. Sorry for the vids being cut up into parts. I didn't have the "15 minute limit" removed at the time, but I got that sorted now. Enjoy! :)

Thanks Danny.

Thanks, Danny. Will be working through these tomorrow. Stay awesome. ;-)

You're welcome guys....I hope you find some of that stuff helpful. :) I'll see what else I got around here if these things are helping anyone and you want to see some more. :)

Thanks Danny! I love this kinda stuff.

I've heard your mixes, man. I can't speak for anyone else but pretty much any insights about how to get things sounding that slick would be a bonus. 

A tour of Danziland would be pretty darned cool too. Sounds like you got some crazy shiz going on there. A tour of my studio would like 30 seconds. "Uh... here's my computer... and uh, a couple crappy guitars. Thanks for watching this tour of The Beeple Factory!"

Thanks Danny! I will put this info to use!

Excellent, will be watching these later this evening... I took a quick peek at your site. I'm disappointed in you.  No Kramers in your collection and you're right there in Jersey.  

Totally appreciate this.

Thanks Danny!

I appreciate this series of videos very much. I never could get the hang of the TS in Sonar but now that I know how it supposed to work, I'll give it another try. I like the reverb trick with the gate. It almost sounds like the compressor adds a reverb like effect with the decay. Maybe reverb is overkill then? Widening it a bit with the reverb and using the phase to tame it is another trick I like a lot.

I loved the bwoowww! You make this stuff so entertaining!

I would like to see what you would do with the drum bus if you can. What I mean is, you use a compressor on almost every drum, still another on the drum bus? The reaso I ask is I'be been using almost the same technique, with the toms, but calming the decay with a HPF. The trouble there is getting the right setting so the toms don't lose the low end. Hopefully I can put more lower the HPF more and use the TS64 or the compressor better to tame it.

This is another new adventure in tone chasing!

Thanks for making these vids!
