I’ve heard of side chaining but never understood how it works. Thanks. I remember a mastering engineer discussing the use of side chaining in a mastering process. I didn’t understand his point, can you explain?

Very well explained tutorial Rupert. What do you think of side-chaining the background audio to the tutor's vocal track. So, when you are explaining the background audio goes a little low and when u pause the beat is back on. Have you tried that, by any chance?

Thanks for the feedback guys, its really appreciated.
Good call with the reverb Phillipp Im going to use that and ok the sound wasn't boring but it was droney / repetitive and far cooler cut up I thought.

Cool … It also sounds pretty cool, if you do it with a long reverb tail of a sound, though this works best, when there is not to much rumbling.
But c'mon, how could you say this original bass loop was boring? I thought it was bretty bad axe =D
