Hi Omar,
You can try, Panning the same or similar sounds around 65 - 85% left and right,
that's very affective.
Also try putting a reverb on it's own bus, using the sonitus Reverb as we have
good access to the parameters.
Go to slapback preset and change the Predelay I believe the default is around
200, that's way too much.
You may need to take it down to around 25 or less.
the Decay time will also need to be less than 0.5 which I believe will be the
default..
Play with high dampening, Dry and early reflection as these will help home in
the sound you want.
Now, pan first the drum sound itself either left or right around 35 50%.
output the drum sound to the Reverb bus.
Pan reverb bus opposite direction to the drum pan, again, around the 35 - 50%
This will give a slightly softer sound than the example above.
Omar, I know I've over explained, the reason for this is, there are several new
people on this list that must think Sonar has it's own language.
Well, I guess in a kind of way it does.
I've never been good with languages, I struggle with English ha ha.

Subject: [ddots-l] drums a wider sound
Hello,
I've gotten the art of making my drums sound decent as far as punchiness,
bass, loudness, etc. What i'm wondering, though, is what's a good way to make
them sound wider? I know drums aren't usually recorded completely stereo, but
i'm listening to radio recordings and the drums sound wider than they do in my
recordings. any plugins or techniques you folks could recommend?
Thanks for all input!
