It’s something i’ve been hearing a lot lately.. They beatmatch and phrase match two songs, when Song A is about to hit the breakdown they cut it to Song B, so you get song B’s breakdown, but then on the buildup they start adding lots of effects and shit and they eventually go back to Song A but because of all the effects on top of the songs you don’t really notice until song A drops again.
It’s the effects and the EQ’ing i wanna know about..it’s not like super colorful effects that bring the audio all the way up..and that’s what i don’t get..
I know they use pioneer equipment, and pioneer’s effects are different than traktor’s but it shouldn’t be that much different.
First off, that’s a very shitty recording, but it sounds like nothing more than fading it in and being a bit heavy on the reverb and then cutting it when the kick comes back in
Effects/EQ’ing methods…i know how to do this, songs must have the exact same length on the breakdowns, beatmatch them on the drops and just cut it from A to B on the breakdown..
if you hear kaskade’s transition you notice that Zero76 is approaching but you hear it as if it was far away (in a distance) You can also hear the other song playing with some EQ’ing over it and some effects, but overral it doesn’t sound really loud or the songs don’t clash.
Yeah, ill find another set, one second, kaskade’s one is really LQ.
Check this one out: (This one is not the transition i’m talking about, he just drops both breakdowns mixes it to song B and Just plays Song B’s Drop, but still the breakdown mixing is what i’m interested in)
at 6:40 like i said above, he drops both breakdowns, starts mixing them, bringing in ‘‘The legend’’ and eventually just leaving ‘‘The legend’’ playing, but the mixing is flawless and the effects and EQ’ing, you rarely notice he switched songs. You would have to know both of the songs being played and really hear it well.
