DUB DISCUSSION BOARD

This discussion started on the "Roots of Dub Funk 2" thread. Let's continue it here where it actually belongs!

A friend gave me the address of the Caveman Studio. This is a small studio doing mainly dubplate specials. <BR>As usual with jamaican studios there was always a lot of young artists around the studio waiting for their chance to record a tune or to do a special. I stayed there for a couple of days ta...

the 501 was the last product in the space echo line - click <A HREF="http://www.foi.hr/~rlogozar/mbsn1/Analo ... l">here</A> for info on the different models.

a fast way to get one: <BR><A HREF="http://www.ebay.com" TARGET="_top">http://www.ebay.com</A> <BR> <BR>i guess you can get it cheaper if you have time <BR>and patience to check local second hand and <BR>pawn shops.

"New World Culture" has a strong reggae flavour, pretty much on the funky side as i would say, especially the bass line and the programmed "dead notes" in the drum patterns. <BR> <BR>It's perfectly ok with me by the way if people post links to their dub-influenced non-dub music here. <BR> <BR>peace...

Adats can be used like any 8 track reel to reel machine. There is nothing that could stop you from having different songs at different tempos on the same Adat tape. Either you manually record the 8 tracks to the Adat one after the other (i.e. drums on track1, bass on track 2, ..) or you bou...

yo massai, <BR>thanks for that answer regarding steely and clevie's drum machines. when info like this is rolling in it really makes me feel we are gathering knowledge here and it was worth it to start this discussion board. <BR>lots of respect also to mike zee who does a great job helping out peopl...

Shanachie sells a 1 hour BBC documentation from 1977/78 called <A HREF="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/6301311876/qid=1017307363/sr=8-2/ref=sr_8_7_2/102-2051027-1953702">Roots Rock Reggae</A> which features footage from a Lee Perry recording Session (few minutes only), also interview...

i see.. <BR> <BR>to find out about the effect of tape compression you could also record to digital first, then copy the digital recording to a simple tape deck setting the recording level high enough to be in the nonlinear range of the tape, then copy the tape back to your digital environment. this...

Mike, I am not recording analog myself (apart from the Revox A77 2-track reel to reel i use for tape delays) but you may like Jack Endino's frequency response graphs for various tape machines: <BR><A HREF="http://www.endino.com/graphs/" TARGET="_top">http://www.endino.com/graphs/</A> <BR> <B...

what i do occasionally is sample a drum intro, then cut it into small pieces with one drum hit in each sample. Now you can sequence your own rolls - this way it's much easyer to get lifelike drum intros since you are using different drum hits which already originate from the same recording.

but it comes with a quite useful and varied collection of drum samples (single hits) <BR> <BR>the same thing seems to be available for free under the name of <A HREF="http://www.threechords.com/hammerhead/introduction.shtml">hammerhead</A> <BR> <BR>if you're interested in more free music sof...

If you really want one single recording machine including all the effects i can only think about digital workstations like the <A HREF="http://www.rolandus.com/CURRENT/press_releases/pr_VS-1824CD_WN.html">Roland VS-1824CD</A> which can be used to record and mix including effects like echo, delay, re...

I just received the list of selected producers for "Roots of Dub Funk 2" Tanty record's upcoming sampler of cutting edge DUB. Besides seminal figures like Alpha & Omega and The Vibronics no less than 4 regular contributors of this Dub discussion forum are featured! <BR> <BR>1: The INTERRUPTOR - SWI...

On one of those cheapo CD-compilations of early Marley songs I recently found a surprising mix of the Lee Perry produced "Mr. Brown": The whole riddim/dub without voices is on the left side and on the right side there is voices only. <BR>I ask myself whether the tune was really meant to be released...

What we know so far: <BR> <BR>- according to Seano M. Oliver the dubs credited to Lee Perry are actually "Bunny Lee-produced tracks from the seventies,mixed at Tubby's by the man himself or by Jammy,(with one by Scientist,I think)" <BR> <BR>- according to John Foreplay "Guiding Star Dub" is ...

so far i don't have experience with this but Dubcreator suggested to connect the spring tank directly to the aux send/returns of the mixing desk in this <A HREF="http://www.interruptor.ch/cgi-bin/discus/messages/1/17.html?#POST57">message</A>. so this may be worth a try. <BR>normally spring reverb u...

i am a bit surprised you want to make this your "holy grail" based on the title alone (especially with THIS title..) but here is what i found: <BR> <BR>according to David Toop from "The Wire" Keith Hudson's track Satan Side is <BR>"..one of the strangest, spookiest records ever made, dub or ...

some of the wikkedest life dub that ever hit my ears indeed..
