sounds. They are designed to be used on dynamic signals. This can be useful when trying to shape sounds such as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.musicradar.com\/tuition\/tech\/how-to-use-transient-shaping-on-drums-600618\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">drums<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Transient shapers can soften the attack on harsh sounds, reduce room noise, and add sustain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ableton doesn&rsquo;t have a dedicated transient shaper, although some stock plugins in Ableton can shape the transients of your sounds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example,&nbsp;<strong>Auto-Pan<\/strong>, with phase set to 0, can create a&nbsp;<strong>tremolo<\/strong>&nbsp;effect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will change the transient of your sound, shaping it in a literal sense. But it won&rsquo;t process your sounds as an actual transient shaper plugin would.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Transient shapers can apply compression and expansion to the same transient at different time points.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compression, although similar, will apply a more linear form of processing to your sounds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have Max For Live devices in Ableton,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ableton.com\/en\/packs\/transient-machines\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Transient Machines<\/a>&nbsp;is a great option to look at for transient shaping.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Third-Party Transient Shapers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sonic Anomaly &lsquo;<\/strong>Transpire<strong>&lsquo;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Transpire is a <a href=\"https:\/\/plugins4free.com\/plugin\/2777\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">free<\/a>, third-party transient shaper.

These effects will instantly give your drums a sense of unity and warmth that, without, they might lack.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is Drum Bus Compression Necessary?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Drum bus compression isn&rsquo;t necessary.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often drum samples have already been compressed one, if not two times, by the time they make it to your DAW.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, in certain situations, extra compression will improve the feel of your drums.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You could place a compressor on each drum track, which may cause inconsistencies across the mix.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you compress your drums, you&rsquo;ll generally want to create a drum bus, or group, to process them together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is A Group The Same As A Bus In Ableton?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No, but they function in the same way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A group can be used to process many individual tracks at once. A Bus, or &lsquo;Send\/Return&rsquo; track in Ableton, can do the same thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which method you use is down to preference.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Do You Compress Drum Samples?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step when compressing drums is to ensure your drum tracks are grouped or routed to a &lsquo;<strong>bus<\/strong>&lsquo; track so that you can simultaneously apply compression to all of your drums.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, drag &lsquo;<strong>Glue Compressor<\/strong>&lsquo; or &lsquo;<strong>Compressor<\/strong>&lsquo; onto your newly created group or bus track.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re working with Ableton&rsquo;s Drum Rack, you can place a compressor after the Drum Rack. You don&rsquo;t need to worry about creating drum groups or routing to a bus track when working with a Drum Rack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:25px\"><strong>For more helpful guides, check out this article on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homemusicmaker.com\/how-to-use-ableton-sidechain-compression\">how to use sidechain compression in Ableton<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ableton&rsquo;s Drum Buss is a stock plugin that simultaneously applies various audio effects.
