Thank you very much for the work that you do. I notice that I hear more differences in the demo when using headphones as opposed to earphones. The changes are still quite subtle, though. I expect that my "mixing ear" will get better over time, though. Thx again. ❤

It's amazing to watch this whole video and not hear a single difference in any of the before and afters yet still recognize I'm learning incredibly valuable information. Definitely my most trusted source for mixing tips.

@sageaudio Жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching! Some of the before and after demos are subtle, with the exception being the chapter about exciters, but it's great to hear that you trust I'm giving you good info!

@@sageaudio What's I've discovered is that I will make minuscule changes on my own mix and hear them fine, but it's really hard to hear other people's minuscule changes because your ear isn't hyperfocused on that same, exact detail. Either way, yes, full trust in your teaching, and also your plugin recommendations. Many thanks.

@@HaharuRecords I do, but it's just hard to hear it the same way as the person mixing. Same goes for my own mixes. Most people never know what I'm talking about when I'm explaining the importance of a subtle change I made.

I love Trackspacer for everything-unmasking (specially the M/S option. Soothe 2 is also great when using sidechains

Hi Sean! Thanks for the feedback; yeah, I like the M/S option too.

Another awesome video, thanks. A suggestion for future videos: Maybe you can discuss more about the high pass filtering and that especially at a 12 dB slope is does not eliminate the low end, but how it reduces it? That took me too long to learn.

@sageaudio Жыл бұрын

Thanks for sharing that thought! Good idea - it's probably helpful to show how the db/octave or slope of the cutoff affects how the lows are attenuated.

Great video. I like using SlickEQ Mastering from Tokyo Dawn Labs for attenuating resonances, although it's not dynamic. It helps with the overall mix as far as smoothing it out.

@sageaudio Жыл бұрын

That's a good plugin! Is that their free one? Or is that nova?

@user-bg8zb1lb7b Жыл бұрын

@@sageaudio Yes, I believe it's the Slick EQ Mastering. Both the Slick EQ M and the Nova Gentlemen's Edition have the Smart Ops feature. Definitely worth purchasing, especially if they are on sale.

02:06 is it the same effect if you use fabfilter pro-MB for sidechaining or is there a difference? I didn't even know you could use sidechain for dynamic eq in pro q 3 😂

@sageaudio Жыл бұрын

It's similar for sure! The Pro MB and Pro Q 3 act a little differently. MB gives you more control over the attack and release, ratio, general compression settings, etc. Whereas, Pro Q 3 gives you better control over the bandwidth of frequencies being compressed.
