Raw vs Processed breaks?
by JonBob » Thu Feb 10, 2011 9:55 pm
SUP CREW. I've been thinking about this for a while and heard different opinions from the few friends i've talked to it about.
FIRST. Do you guys work with processed produced breaks made for electronic music, or the vintage breaks that inspired/birthed them?
And is it worth putting a shitload of time into producing, layering, tweaking etc the fuck out of raw sounds to get a product that might not even sound as nice as the processed break?
AKA artistic process vs final product.
I always work from scratch, and I like that my drums have a unique sound, but its a little frustrating not having all the production knowledge to make it sound exactly the way i'd like.

Yop !
Like I said in the Producer Tips & Tricks thread I always start by using existing breakbeat (some old, some more processed like you said before) but I always look at which sound I will pick up in each of these sample and manipulate, break, tweak, experiment, jump over (hehehe) it until I got 20 minute of completly fucked sounds ... and I record all the good stuff and process it again with eq & compression.

I'm largely incapable of synthesising my own percussion from scratch, yet to find a reliable drum synth, so largely everything that I churn out uses some form of processed sampled breaks. With the exception of Gabber kicks which I can vst up, most my strikes and loops are pre-existing sounds which I layer, filter and distort to varying degrees. If I had the skills to produce my own sounds then maybe i'd be able to sound as good as Dj Hidden, but as it stands i'm a jezwell.
Saying that I like the outcome of sampled breaks sometimes, especially when interesting effects are applied to them such that they sound unique (i.e not a bog standard amen sample).
