This is the only tutorial all over the internet that shows properly how to get your Level Management / Gain Staging done the right way! Thank you so much!

Been using logic for 15 years and never knew about pre fader metering! Doh! This is why I love logic always learning something new! Thanks for the video

#1 tutorial on getting your tracks started properly 🎉

SO IMPORTANT!. I've been fighting with Logic for years never knowing about this absolutely fundamental capability in the product. I've spent so MUCH time learning to become a better mixer and mastering the entire Izotope suite of products and dozens of Waves and other plug-ins (which has taken years) to get the best sound, never realizing there is an extremely import "First Step" that can make your life so much easier down the road. Thanks for sharing this and thanks to Google for showing me this video in a search result, otherwise I'd never have figured this out because Logic doesn't make accessing this capability easily intuitive and there is no mention f this in any "Starter" literature provided. Why Apple hid this capability from plain sight is beyond my comprehension. But after following your instructions I levelled every track in a song with several dozen tracks and suddenly the entire project became manageable. What an amazing difference this makes. Thanks again!

Hands down the best tutorial I've had on gain staging. Thanks

Best explanation of gain staging for Logic Pro X ever... This is exactly how it is supposed to be done.

This is the best tutorial I've ever had about pre-fading. Its all I needed to make the best and balanced sound.

Exactly what I have been looking for since ages. The metering!!!!! Thank you! Hands down the best tutorial on Gain Staging! 🔥

New to Chris. This dude is money in the bank, Clear exposition from start to finish on level setting Impossible not to be a better mixer with this information. Appreciation.

Dude, thank you. You kept it honest, on topic, and simple.

crazy how much better it sounds even barely mixed after you gain staged it. Thanks for the video!

its crazy how well i understand you on the comprehensive level. glad i found your stuff in the first week with logic

Fantastic tutorial, very helpful. I was able to (roughly) mix my very first song today after 10+ unmixed beats. Thank you!

Awesome tutorial, man really helped me leave enough space in my mix so I can master properly

you explained this better than anybody else i saw! thank you!

Finally a person who explains it the right way!

Never understood the power of Pre Fader Metering until this video. Thank you!

Hey nice beginner tutorial -- straight and to the point! I use this same concept in Traktor. All the levels of the songs are set to +/- zero and the master output is set to - 6. These settings give me a + / - zero reading on the input faders and + / - zero on the master output of my mixer. These are the perfect settings to get maximum sound out of my PA system.

Great video! Simple and straightforward, just what I needed. Thanks man!

Fantastic clear, concise & to the point video. Why cant all tech videos be like this. Well done m8 👍🏾

Brilliant ... you've cleared up a few housekeeping issues for me. Much appreciated! Thank you.

It's the best video by far with this kind of information, and I' ve watched a lot !!! Huge thanks,and respect to the wonderful content and explanation!! Instantly subscribed!!

Thanks a lot!! My friend, you've done a fantastic tutorial of one of my question about that topic as a begginer🙌🏼

A lot of gain staging tutorials out there but i thought this one was to the point and makes the most sense. I always would here advice about -12 being nominal but did not know they were talking about instrument tracks instead of the output. What an epiphone cheers.

Best Logic Gain Staging tutorial and I've watched A LOT!!! I'm such a dummy. The Region gain didn't work for so i put a gain in every channel. Now I realize I probably tried the region gain with a software instrument. I'm a dummy

this just fixed EVERYTHING. Thank you so much

Thanks- Totally sorted this out for me- I'd never clocked it and it s fundamental to working on a clean mix-Keep doing the tutorials.

2nd video of yours I've watched... So informative & to the point!

💯 great tutorial... Never really thought about the importance of signal flow of each track.. Always focused on master output level.. Can't wait to implement in my tracks 🆙👊🏾

I needed this in my life to get me past a hurdle. Great info!

Thanks man. This was a great tutorial and helped me understand gain staging. I'll look out for more of you vids, man.

Great! Concise, and easy to understand. Thanks!

thanks bro for this tutorial i had some issues with understanding gain staging but this made it more clear.

Gold! Thank you Christopher.

Wonderful.......... the penny dropped after seeing your gain staging demo........ I'm delighted with what I've learned from you!!!!! Thanks!

Very nice, clear and practical info here. Thanks a lot!

For me, I'd avoid putting a gain plug in on the master bus to get a higher output. I'd send the stereo bounce to mastering with that 9dB of headroom intact. Let mastering boost the level.

Wow, I picked up some important pieces of knowledge here. Nice style of tutoring too, I'm subscribing! Cheers!

That was fascinating. What an interesting technique. This has never, ever occurred to me and I haven't seen anyone else talk about it. I often put a -6dB Gain plugin on a lot of tracks. I will try this out next session.

Thank you! This was super helpful and straight forward.

Being a newbie at audio production, this was enormously helpful in getting me started! Thanks.

Clear and concise. Good job 🙏

Really an excellent presentation of how to manage levels, and just how to approach mixing, in Logic Pro X, thank you!

Great Tutorial, Thanks it helped a lot to under the gain structure of logic and gainstaging!!

6:10-6:14 is all I needed to see. Everything before that made the aforementioned time stamp perfect

This helped me tremendously! Thank you thank you thank you

Exactly what I needed and was looking for! Thanks!!

Very, very helpful for me !! Thank you 🙏!

Solid, fam. This is right on. I couldn’t get the gain on my 2i2 low enough to record my super hot pickups, (DI). Thought channel gain was the way to go, but region gain rules…..and pre fader recording from now on. Respect.

i fucking love you for posting this video. the amount of time you just saved me is significant...SIGNIFICANT.

Thanks Chris super helpful bro!

Oops, did this AFTER mixing, but it still improved the "being able to hear everything" by 100% Now I can fine tune. Thanks.

Good work on the gain staging and prep

THANKS; very helpful!
