Leslie Brathwaite uses the Waves Renaissance Equalizer and Waves LoAir to add subharmonics and enhance the low-end of Rhodes in a hip-hop track.
He balances enhancing the low-end with the LoAir plugin while controlling it with a high-pass filter in the Renaissance EQ. This ensures that the meaty lower notes of the Rhodes are felt and heard, while maintaining brightness and presence in the overall sound.
Brathwaite emphasizes the importance of experimenting with both plugins to find the right balance, often bypassing one or the other to assess their individual contributions to the mix.
