Fiver Friday Header II

What a week! We have been named for the 4th time in a row to one of America’s fastest growing companies . I m so happy about this as only one out of ten companies on the inc 500 list achieve this. I am so thankful to work with the best guys in the business day in and day out. I appreciate all the great partners and clients and of course I am thankful for your support and journey we are having on this blog together for the last 5 (cant believe this) years! In this week’s Fiver Friday there will be also a video tutorial. You asked for this, so we try to deliver that more frequently – promise! Have a great weekend!

1. Plugin

I found a new compressor by Slate Digital this week: The Monster! It seems to work pretty brutal with transient material, as a button called “Punch” pushes material while having a slow attack. The plugin also comes with a High Pass Sidechain which is perfect if you want to give low end the extra punch. And the best: it’s FREE! Check it out!

2. Inspiration

This short film takes us to the studio of two foley artists, Sue Harding and Peter Burgis, working on a film about the life of a fisher in a small village. No Dialogue, just picture and sound.
It’s amazing how they perfectly time their performance and liven up the whole film.

How to create a powerful Lo-Fi effect benztown style. This is only one way to do this. As always, there is far more ways to get to the point.
