Part 18 - Sidechain compression

In this micro tutorial you will see how to set up side chain compression in Record for some nice pumping audio effects. We'll look at how to do this with the dynamics section in Record's built in mixer and also how to do it with the MClass compressor.

Part 17 - De-essing in Record

De-essing is the process to reduce those nasty sharp 's' sounds that can cut through your mix and wreak sonic havoc on your latest ballad. Ok, maybe that specific use case does not apply to you, but a de-esser is a very useful tool that can help you balance a mix. "But Record does not have a De-esser effect", you might say. That's true. But as usual with Reason and Record, there is a routing solution to every problem.
