Totally true. Watch his video called “Give me money” where he breaks down HOW he approaches creating these excellent tutorials. He’s hero material for sure !!!!!!! 🦸‍♂️

Wow. Insane amounts of information in a short video! :) I thought I'd share some of my notes in case they are useful to anyone else: 1. Cutting 20-30 Hz is fine on whole mix (even large PA systems rarely go below 40 Hz) 2. Many rigs will force subs to mono, even if the rest is in stereo. PA systems usually cross over from subs to bass at between 80-120 Hz 3. He approximates a Baxandall EQ curve which can create smooth, natural sounding cuts or boosts 4. He creates an approximation of the Gerzon shelving type which can be more transparent than a simple shelf 5. He creates a ‘fairly wide and gentle dip at around 7k where the vocal is in danger of becoming sibilant, and allow the shelving band to boost the air region above 10k’ 6. Bell-shaped filters are more frequently used to control mid-range frequencies. 7. A ‘Q’ of 0.6 (roughly 2 octaves of bandwidth) - wide and gentle and can transparently sweeten material Boost the upper mid/lower treble will add presence and sparkle, or cutting them to reduce harshness and make the sound smoother. 8. A ‘Q’ of 1.4 (about an octave) - useful to pick out individual parts of a mix. EG bring out guitar with a boost at 1.5k, or set it back in the mix with a little cut. Also a good setting when hunting for problem frequencies 9. Higher Q’s can sound unnatural when boosting, but can be great for surgical transparent cuts. 10. A Q of 4 is roughly 1/3 of an octave, while a Q of 8 is roughly around one note (great for targeting problem notes) 11. Be aware, cutting the low mids may affect your perception of the high mids and treble, so you may need to revisit those 12. Zero-latency mode is best when sweeping for problem frequencies (as linear modes will introduce a delay between your changes and when you hear them) 13. Linear mode can cause pre-ringing effects on transients. As a general rule: Linear work best for gentle or wide cuts or boosts, especially in the higher frequencies, and might be a good choice in multiple microphone situations. Zero latency may work best for surgical cuts / costs and tonal shaping.

@FinalFragment Read up on "Mid Side" or "MS" stereo. Basically its a different way of representing stereo signals: instead of one channel for the left speaker and another for the right speaker (like conventional "AB" stereo) MS uses one channel for the middle of the stereo image (the sum, ie: the mono mix of left and right), and another channel for the sides of the stereo image (the difference, ie: what you lose when you mix down to mono). Perhaps I should make an MS stereo tutorial..?

Check out Chris Johnson's Airwidows plugins. They're free, and he designs them to avoid phasing, artifact, and distortion issues. He's put out several plugins in the past that specifically address sub and bass issues, and he just put out a new one. His plugins are amazing, and sometimes a little weird, but he's brilliant. He's kind of like a savant. He's got like 170 something plugins, and they work with Linux, Mac, and Windows. They don't have GUIs. Just sliders, so they're great for training your ears, too. Donate whatever you can do he can keep making these awesome plugins. He also just put out the best De-Esser ever. Best was to use it is to crank it to the max, then mix in enough dry signal to add in just enough sibilance so it doesn't sound lispy. It only effects the sibilance, not the rest of the highs. I think Waves' new plugin, "Sibilance", uses his code. He makes all his code available for anyone who wants to use it. It kind of pisses me off when I see him come up with something revolutionary, then someone like Waves'comes along and suddenly releases something just like it and doesn't pay him for it! Anyway, he's got several plugins you'd find useful, and he has a video that describes and demos each one. Best kept plugin secret, and we need to spread the word! I know you'll find something useful and some great explanations that will help you a lot.

FabFilter make Waves look like kiddie toys. They are the most amazing plugins in the industry for what they do. They don't compare to UAD for their analog quality, but for in-the-box plugins, there's no comparison. Especially when it comes to Pro-MB or Pro-R. There's simply nothing that comes close to their feature sets and sound quality. I'm test after rest, they beat Waves and the other more established brands. Waves make cheap (quality, not necessarily inexpensive), glitzy plugins with big name endorsements that sucker people who don't know what they're doing into thinking they can make their mixes sound like a celebrity mixer's by using one or two sliders in a "one size fits all" fashion. Their channel strips and hardware emulations are pathetic compared to Slate Digital or, especially, UAD. FabFilter don't make emulations. They make amazingly great sounding, incomparably feature rich tools that are mind bogglingly great. Check out Worrall's videos on Pro-MB and you'll hear a taste of a master at work with the most innovative tool in the industry.

Great info, but was a bit disappointed in this one after watching his other tutorials. What made them outstanding was that he allowed time for us to hear what was happening, and I found my ears developing new sensitivity rapidly. This one was so much info so fast with no pauses in between, that it wanted for time to appreciate and absorb the techniques he was demonstrating. He alluded to being rushed at the end. I hope this is a rare exception to his exceptional videos.

You're probably not using Pro-Q. Other EQs have settings that let you zoom in or show what part of the spectrum is showing, but, AFAIK, Pro-Q always displays and lets you add points from 10Hz to 30kHz, even though those are outside the hearing range. Putting points there can let you make curve shapes that you couldn't otherwise make.

@xaosnox 5 жыл бұрын

Usually you want to EQ into the Compressor, then limit. The limiter will always come last in the chain, but you may layer compressors, EQs and other things in the order that sounds and works best. Mastering shouldn't be a much of a process. It's should really be limited to doing a few things to maybe compensate for how he mixer's room might have colored the sound, making sure you're within the limits of streaming services, adding the track info, and making a master if it's going to vinyl or CD.

In Pro-Q2, when you hover over an EQ point, a box will appear that tells you the frequency, the cut or boost, and the Q. In the top right corner of that little box is a headphone icon. If you hover over it, it will turn red. If you click it, it will solo that band.

@Ahseyo 11 жыл бұрын

It's a good plugin for the mid's and the highs but the lows on this EQ sucks so hard. You can only boost oh so little because it's extremely sensetive and can easily start distortion if you boost it even slightly too high so you can't at times boost like you would with another EQ. the lows on this plugin also tends to give out some rumble imo. But, works brilliant with the highs and mids.

Maybe someone can shed some light here. I understand the sweeping thing somewhat but I think it's the spectrum analyzer I'm confused on. Sometimes it's over the line and sometimes the freqs are well under the line so 1. What exactly is the spectrum analyzer for if you're just going to sweep anyway when determining where to cut/boost? And/or 2. Why the need to sweep if the spectrum analyzer is intended to show where the issues are? I'm guessing spectrum visual and sweep audible??? Thanks anyone in advance!

@iamtherealrenedescartes 9 жыл бұрын

The analyser shows frequencies right down to 10Hz as well as those up to 30kHz (On the pro-q2 I think it does anyway). These are frequencies that are out of our hearing range. Not only that, but adults over 25 can barely hear over 17kHz despite how well engineers think they can hear. So it can help in showing us frequencies we can't hear. But the sweeping is for smoothing out those frequencies that sound bad _to our ear_. Not what the analyser shows. But you can also smooth out the peaks based on what you see but I have never done this in a mix. I don't see the use. For me personally, I usually have the analyser visible but I only make low cuts and high cuts based on the information I see (and that is usually for frequencies above 20Khz - when low cutting, I usually sweep up until I hear it starting to effect the sound and then back it off a little so I am removing information that is inaudible). When EQing, this is something we should use our ears for rather than our eyes. I have on multiple occasions checked out what my reference track looks like on the spectrum just to see it. Not to base my decisions from though.

@esp1344 9 жыл бұрын

unrelated comment but when you're using eq's with an analyzer, don't rely on the analyzer to find out where to cut or boost. remember this is music; it's meant to be listened to. rely on your ears to make decisions about changing the sound of something, not your eyes. also as a general rule of eq's, cut with a narrow Q and boost with a wide Q/cut to make something sound better(take bad things out) and boost to make things sound different.

@WorldITCB 9 жыл бұрын

Thanks Esp. And Descartes. Is my mix supposed to sound "radio ready" by the time I'm done mixing? I often feel like I can't get it to sound radio ready on my own but at what point do I know I've gotten it close enough to have the mastering studio Polish it to give it that final touch? In other words. When is my mix good enough for mastering? Do I spend more time trying to control kick and bass sub harmonics? Do I try to add more "air"? Or do I save time and leave "the rest" to the mastering experts? Subjective I suppose but I often find myself trying to get my mix to sound good that I may be wasting time on details the mastering guys can take care of.

@esp1344 9 жыл бұрын

I'm not a professional I just happen to have some really great professors so don't take my word the same way as CLA's or Pensado's. But i think that stuff is all in your ballpark as far as mixing goes. Mastering shouldn't change the sound of your mix much at all otherwise there wouldn't be two seperate processes of mixing and mastering. If I find myself feeling the need to make more than minor polishing type changes on my 2Buss before I get it ready for mastering, Ill go back and change more on sub busses or channels and try to take care of it there. When you feel you don't need to use plugins on the master to make your mix sound better, then its ready to be sent out to mastering. You can never trust someone else to perfectly see your vision of the final product, so anything you want to happen sonically, do yourself.

@xaosnox 5 жыл бұрын

What shows up as peaks in the spectrum analyser are merely where there is the most amplitude or where things are loudest. That doesn't necessarily mean that is where the unpleasant frequency is. A snare hit will peak very high at the frequency where it is supposed to sound the loudest, but there may be a weird ring from the metal in the casing that is quiet, but annoying. It may appear to be very low in the frequency spectrum analyser, but sweeping a soloed boost will help you hear where that is so you can cut it, Does that make sense? Other times, it may be that there is a peak in an area where your experience tells you there isn't much valuable sound for that instrument, so you know that's probably where you want to cut. So, sometimes its visually helpful, but you ultimately have to rely on your ears.

@xaosnox 5 жыл бұрын

Some people don't have money, and need to learn the product to make some. I think it would be very smart for companies to make their products freely available or very inexpensive until you're making money with them. Cockos does this with REAPER, pretty much. The demo stays fully functional forever, but it's only $60 for a personal license for the best DAW in the industry. Then, when your business is making over $20K/yr, it's $240. People are happy to pay it because they have a truly great product that gets better all the time. Avid, on the other hand, have not come up with anything innovative in a decade, so now they charge a subscription fee so they can keep sucking money out of their suckers-oops! I meant customers-every month, and you can only have 96 channels with the "Ultimate" package. WTF? They artificially limit the functionality of their product just so they don't have to come up with new ideas to get people to pay them. Anyone still using ProTools when REAPER is available is a complete fool. You can work 10x faster in REAPER, and there are no limits.
