So glad that I could help! A lot of times it’s the little things that change the game for us and I’ll keep sharing as much knowledge as I can. -Miami

Equalization in my opinion is the single most important skill to master in all of making music on a computer.

@@joeymusic Miami, Thank You Brother! I have been working on a very challenging mix of my acoustic 2 djembe, bass drum and high hat compositions . . . Cleaning up and balancing the bass tones from the two djembes and the bass drum, plus the high and mid tone melodies from the djembes, and then high hat . . . Needless to say , thins project has got me digging much deeper into the world of EQ . . . Adding the Infinity EQ and Eiosis Air EQ Premium has been a game changer . . . Yet knowing what to boost has to go alaong with knowing what to reduce . . . And here You come in . . . Right On Time . . . ! . . . 🙂 (-; . . . I look forward to seeing more of your very excellent work . . . Peace and Blessings, One Love :-) Be (-;

omg I know right!! cut dat sonar out and that snare finally starts crackin!

man....would never have known 8 minutes would change my game forever lol

Idk why the only client joke got me so good... probably cause it's so relatable 🤣

gotta give your self the vip treatment

The “I’ll be sure to thank me” is what got me lmaoo that was amazing

Knowing this stuff makes you a better musician

I’m so glad that they’re helpful to you! What would you like to see next? -Miami

It's so essential for high gain guitars, really allows you to crank the overdrive if you know where it (really seriously most likely) needs a cut.

Why would you ever use a Segway when your last names walker? 😂 but seriously, thanks for subbing. I’m gonna keep the transitions coming (it’s literally part of my shtick) -Miami

“ You have a new sub.”. That means two things 😏😝

This is legit all that I strive for! Tyvm🥲 -Miami

@@joeymusic love ya!

I can’t watch those kind of content creators tbh 😩 -Miami

Thanks for sticking with us through the growth! 🙏🏿 -Miami

I’m glad it was helpful! I try to use examples that get the point across perfectly, so thank you for that! -Miami

You should try even lower, no joke. rolled off at 7k in a mix and, BOOM, clarity. Highly dependent on the mix of course, but if you have a full loud rock mix, the cymbals will take care of anything around 10k. The guitars just muddy up that range

Thanks so much Samuel! I’ll keep trying to pump out quality material as long as everyone keeps watching! -Miami

Thanks Feraldy! Got some new vids dropping this week! -Miami

Thank you so much! -Miami

It’s crazy, right?!it usually pokes out around 5-700 and it’s impossible not to hear it once you’ve heard it -Miami

Like it was meant to happen lol

Sick! Did it make a huge difference for the mix?! -Miami

Thanks Mark! What’s the most annoying frequency you have to deal with?! -Miami

Glad you enjoyed it, John! -Miami

Woo! I’m ALWAYS up for some vocal recording videos -Miami

@@joeymusic PLEASE DO BRO. Different effects and transitions with vocals structures would be awesomeeeee

Just remember to search around for the frequency areas and to remember the SOUND of what you’re trying to remove. This is what will help you become a pro! -Miami

You’re welcome, Geoff! Are there any in particular that stuck out to you? -Miami

Thanks Brad! I thought they made huge differences as well! I’m hoping this will help some people identify these offending frequencies more easily! -Miami

Appreciate you, Ricky! -Miami

You’re welcome Kurt! Thanks for watching -Miami

I'm surprised we still have videos showing the boost and sweep technique used on everything. EQs are resonators and will resonate any frequency and make it sound nasty if boosted enough. That is why Pro Q 3 is so great, you can sweep without the boost and listen to a region without the nasty resonance. But yes, the frequency ranges listed can be and often are troublemakers and it makes sense to check them out, but they shouldn't be mindlessly cut every time.

That's why i always cut around 2 or 3 db on those frequencies. That way u can take a little proportion of what annoys you and still keep the essence of the frequence

Though you guys are right, it’s still good to listen to the theories behind theses frequencies, so you understand what 5th sound like and what it means. Also why an engineer makes certain decisions.

if you actually watch the video he says multiple times not to just mindlessly cut the frequencies mentioned in the video, and he even specifically mentions the 300hz and 700hz areas (it's even in the description lol) and that the areas that he mentions in the video might be out by 100hz or so depending on your mix, so congrats on looking like a fuckwit

@@xratjarx6714 and where in my comment I said that he said to just cut without thinking? I just said to not do it mindlessly, not that he said that.

Yeah, it’s always in that 3-400 area that gets nasty -Miami

So glad to be able to help! -Miami

Yea but for someone just starting off, it's good to have a clear starting point, especially if you have multiple sources that disagree with each other, because you can test which advice gets you closer to your goal. It's more useful to get clear instruction and advice than to listen to people in the comments who are desperate to be the most objectively correct guy with useless and vague advice

Thanks Joe! I’m trying to incorporate more examples these days. -Miami

@@joeymusic i love it!

Thanks Vincent! I gotta flex my vocal chords soon on this ep I’m writing! -Miami

All thanks to you guys! Hopefully 50k by the end of the year! -Miami

Appreciate that a ton! -Miami

Anytime! I’ll make sure to keep them coming at least a couple times a week! -Miami

The person you’re watching in the video is Miami! Not Joey. But thank you for being here and watching!

You’ll notice that it sticks out a lot once you remove it from something and put it back. It’s a hard sound to forget. And menace and skybox are great tools for the arsenal! -Miami

Interesting! I have to go back and check for that now lol -Miami

Yes, some mastering engineers routinely cut at 220Hz for that exact reason

Appreciate you Malik! -Miami

That’s awesome Jonathan! Which frequency was messing up your mix? -Miami

@@joeymusic not really messing up my mix I was just looking for a little more clarity (it was a choir recording with only a stereo pair being used) so I took out some 4K and it was night and day

Appreciate that! I’ve been slacking but I’m going to start singing a lot more often for vids! -Miami

Thanks so much! -Miami
