Extreme Effects – Next-level processing
In electronic music making, effects are everything. You can be using the best vintage synths and a ton of killer drum sounds, but without a bit of creative processing your music is going to sound incredibly dry. Whether it’s using reverb to place sounds into space, adding groove with delay or harmonic grit with distortion, having a stock of quality effects – and knowing how to use them – is essential for any modern producer.
Pushed to extremes, creative effects can be the most inspiring thing in your production toolbox. By setting up elaborate chains of processors and getting over-the-top with automation, it’s possible to turn even simple sounds into wild, ear-catching sonics.
This is exactly what we’re exploring in this issue’s Extreme Effects cover feature. Join us down the rabbit hole as we push sounds beyond all recognition and get adventurous with our sound design tricks and tips.
