So here we go ...

Anybody up in here who knows about the fabulous art of NY compression?
Maybe... juxt?!
All I know so far is, that it's a use of a compressor on drums...?!
So what is special on that?!

But I might not understand anyway...

if you take a drum pattern and layer a heavily compressed copy of it with a non compressed copy you may notice it has a boom bap effect.

I do this on the sp by using vinyl sim and recording to a multitrack then record it back in to the sp. maby resample with more compression and take away some mids. then trim it so its in sync with the non compressed drum pattern.

not only compression can work good when layering drums- distortion, filter/drive, lofi, ect can work good too.

I saw this on mpc forums awhile back. This should give you some understanding of how to use this technique works.

Sounds really interesting... I'm gonna try this definitly. The video seems to be very helpful, too... Thanx 4 that !

if you look it up under parallel compression you will find the true form of it. iys taking a bused version of the drums and feeding the over compressed sounds ( attack and decay ) back into the original sound.

i do this all the time.. sequence a heavily compressed drum loop, chop up the drumloop add some EQ to the drum hits and layer em to their right positions in the drumloop.

..if you chop em up, do you resample for example the compressed and the uncompressed basedrum as one or do you layer them in the sequencer...
