Into вЂDrums WetвЂ™ -track we are going to add the compression and вЂDrums DryвЂ™ -track we leave dry.Д«ut we are not done yet with the routing. Rename them in a style of вЂDrums WetвЂ™ & вЂDrums DryвЂ™. So now we have routed the drum tracks to two separate mixer tracks. Just saying this to save your time from unnecessary clicking. Think of a situation where you have already routed signal to a lot of different mixer tracks, and you choose вЂRoute to this track onlyвЂ™, you will loose all the other routings and you would have to set them up again. The Same method applies if you want to route it to even more additional mixer tracks, because if you go and right click and choose вЂRoute to this track onlyвЂ™, the signal will be routed to ONLY to the chosen mixer track. Note that you should use the left click as we are routing the SAME SIGNAL to two separate mixer tracks. So pick another empty mixer track, click on a drum mixer track and this time, LEFT click on that little up-arrow icon on that empty mixer track so that it turns yellow. We are going to need another empty mixer track where we route the drums (you can route a signal to as many mixer tracks as you want) and this mixer track we use to send the non-processed (dry) signal to master track. However, we can still control the volume levels, apply processing, eq, etc. This allows us to apply processing (such as compression) to the drums as a GROUP so that it affects all the drum sounds together. What we are doing here is we send the signal of each drum mixer track to a master track THROUGH one (or more) mixer track(s) and as we chosen вЂRoute to this track onlyвЂ™, the signal will not be sent to the master track straight вЂ“ ONLY through the chosen mixer track. Do that for each of the drum mixer tracks.

The little up-arrow on that empty mixer track turns yellow. You do the routing one-track-at-a-time by clicking a drum mixer track and then right click that little up-arrow on an empty mixer track and choose вЂњRoute to this track onlyвЂќ. Into this track, we will add the compression. Now, in the mixer view, ROUTE all the drum mixer tracks to an empty mixer track. Create a simple drum sequence and use the mixer to set the volume levels between the drums in balance: Pick a set of drum samples вЂ“ kick drum, snare, closed hi-hat and open hi-hat вЂ“ and drop them to the step sequencer sampler channels and assign each drum sample to an empty mixer track.

In this tutorial, I will show you how to set up parallel compression (also known as New York compression) in FL Studio. Hear the difference? Sounds like the drums are heavily compressed, but they still have their original dynamics there as well. First the drums dry, without parallel compression:ДЄnd hereвЂ™s the drums with parallel compression applied: Great trick to make your drums sound huge. This technique is particularly useful with drum compression as with it you can apply heavy compression to the drums while retaining their original dynamics as both signals вЂ“ compressed and non-compressed вЂ“ are sent to the master out. Parallel processing is a mixing technique where you duplicate audio signal, add processing (such as compression) to the other signal and leave the other signal non-processed (dry), mix them together and send them to the master out.
