Having a listen to version 2 ,sounds nice and balanced
I may be going crazy but the kick sounds out time
You're not going crazy, I hear it too. I think it has something to do with whatever technique he's using to enhance the low end... sometimes the low frequencies get to your ear a tick late. I'm not sure if I have any practical suggestions for fixing that, though, because I usually use low cuts to remedy that problem :/. Triggering a sample would work, but that's kinda passing the buck...
@thedon @pauli ....Just when I thought I was out.....they pull me back in......but seriously guys, thanks for your input....I've learned so much on this project.
I've gone back and looked at the Kick...I had a little bit of compression on the signal chain, maybe 3dB, but it was enough to suck up the sub 50Hz and give it a wobble, even with a fast release, and I think this is what is causing the timing issue. I've now stripped the signal chain of all compression (@ pauli ref your info on natural compression when recording on tape from other thread) so now I only have EQ and a small bit of distortion. I've even deleted and re-imported the source track, just in case I had nudged it when editing the front end.
I think this now sounds better....but what the hell do I know....I missed it previously
