I call this trick
JUMPIN AND PUMPIN

On the compressor page, set: THR 82, ATK 10, REL A1, MUP 40, RAT 1:2, SEQ=HIT, MIX 95, and finally, most importantly, VOL to a low value like 50.

On your FX track, set the LFO MOD to ONE and the WAV to Exponential. Set SPH to just about 14 or so, because we don’t want full exponential. It will be too painful. Yes. Because we’re setting DST to COMPRESOR VOL. at a DEP of like +80. Yep. BAM BAM BAM.

Put trigs on your FX track on the places where you want accented transients, like on the 1 5 9 13 or whereever.

I did this cause I was jealous, maybe even envious, of that punchy 606 sound. So punchy with the transients all lined up. Well, I figured I could just get all my transients to line up alright, the hard way.

I think it worked, you tell me.

Samples: 606 from Mars, Rockers vocal, my Minilogue.
