Hi guys, I have brought this up before, but still trying to pick someones
brain here on this issue. I have a recorded kick drum track where the drummer
plays a single bass kick drum with a dual beater pedal. I used a D 112 AKG
kick drum microphone and it definitely has a lower gain on every kick with
his left foot. I want to use a separate audio editor program where I can
load up the .paf file that represents the recording of just the kick drum
and then it can somehow go thru and magically correct all the 2nd left foot
pedal hits to match the exact gain as the first kick drum pedal hit. Any
suggestions of a software audio file editor program that can do this with
one magic button or should I just painstakingly go kick by kick and edit
the kick to match exact gains? The compression tool that comes with paris
is just not doing the trick.

Johnny

Either crank it up and use a limiter so all kicks become the same level (i
like buzzimax3 limiter) or use drumagog and replace all the kicks above threshold
with a sample.

Johnny,
I think it will be possible to limit the kick track enough
actually even them out and as John said throw Drumagog
after the limiter to trigger another kick sound that will be nice=20
and even. Drumagog is cool.

You might be lucky enough to use just the limiter for this.
NoLimit has a powerful sound for this but tone shaping will be needed
do to the over-phatness that will occur at such high levels.
Good luck,
Tom

On Windows = Cool Edit Pro v2.0, with the paf filter (paf.flt - available on
a few Paris sites).

That, or just have the guy play the way he should. :)

As you're saying, Carl and Adobe, that buied CoolEditPro and gave it
the name Audition, can do the same thing with the paf filter.
