Noteworthy information and observations about Kygo’s work.

• Space Designer is by far his reverb plugin of choice, almost always with the 01.8s Bright Chamber preset.
• His second most used reverb is Goldverb with the #default preset (example: Ultrabeat drums in deep house remixes, white noise splash [wet level to 100%])
• Some instruments in some tracks don’t have any sidechain while the rest does. A technique used to make specific sounds more prominent.
  • Passenger - Let Her Go (Kygo Remix): no sidechain on the sub bass + Finnebassen
  • Marvin Gaye - Sexual Healing (Kygo Remix): no sidechain on the synth lead layers
• The “1/16th Swing C” preset within Logic’s piano roll is his go to quantization setting for adding swing to his MIDI. When there is no swing on the instance then he will use the standard 1/16th setting as normal.
