The high school song is actually good.

I am blown away how much difference there is in your speaking and singing voices. as in extremely impressed.

Your an amazing teacher!! Your videos are helpful for all musicians at all stages of their journey! Thank you brother

Joe I grew up right down the road from you in Flora MS. Great videos! They’ve helped me a lot.

Hey Joe. I've been mixing for awhile now. I am new to Studio One. I got into this when I inherited a Music engineering Course as the "teacher". Thank you soooo much for all of your information! Incredibly helpful!

Love your sense of humor and of course your way of teaching.

Joe... do yo realize what you and Grahama are doing?!?!? You are teaching all of us something unique that until now only really really prepared people in expensive studios could do! THANK YOU!!! I owe everything I know to you two.

Yes, so true. Your own mix quiet and then a commercial track comes on afterwards and stamps on it. Great video. Love from London.

Great video and yes I think we can all remember scratching our heads wondering why our favourite records were so much louder! Thanks for making the video!

Consistently the best teacher I have come across . Thanks Joe

I'll join the many other commenters here and say a big thank you to Joe Gilder for this video. I've been recording for a little over a year now, using StudioOne, and this is one of the most useful and clearly explained videos I've seen yet for StudioOne. I've been wondering why my songs were so quiet compared to other music I listened to online, and now I know. Very much appreciated!

Your videos are so helpful man, thank you!

I like the hard drum sound you can get by stacking 2 or three of these limiters. 20 to 30 ms release and 3/4 db max reduction on each of 3 limiters. Kick and snare take a big jump forward in the mix using this in parallel with the dry signal.

Thank you so much Joe. You just did answer to my prayers. I also use Studio One. The K-14 is my answer. Keep rocking. You just gained a sub.

Joe, your videos lately have been so helpful....this was especially, thank you

Joe, this information is absolute gold to me. Thank you very much. This has honestly helped me take my music to the next level.

great job I want to thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge with us, the people and doing it with a lot of clarity, sincerity and honesty. you are brilliant.

Thanks so much for the info! Looking forward in using studio one 5 , with all my samplers and drum machines / keyboards

Thank you very much, Mr. Gilder!

The bad mix of the high school song actually has a vibe to it. Like, a raw, warm vibe.

Hi Joe, may I suggest in your master buss, set your master fader to -6 db when playback is on, then put in the limiter at the end, with no increase with the input knob on the limiter. Place the ceiling at -1.00.....Next turn the limiter threshold counter clock wise until you reach the level (in the master buss section ) to zero. now you have the correct output level. Give it a try, works great for me in "Studio One". Different strokes for different folks !

dude you are literally a lifesaver

What an amazing explanation... massive respect

I just saved the pre set your shared with us. Joe Gilder limiter set up.. this is great explanation! Rock on!

Joe, I had a pastoral ministries professor at Bible College in Texas, Dr. Davis. He was from Yazoo City, Mississippi. Small world!

Brilliant! Thank you very much.

clear as usual thank you Joe.. cheers from Paris

thanks,, you're tutorials are a nice length, and easy to understand,,also great to see the mic at the right level for a sound tut,

Thanks for this one Joe! Great content (as usual), and love the Gandalf-comparison! :) Really enjoy your videos, informative with loads of humor.

This early recording shows one thing more than anything. What great singer you were back then already, Joseph

Perfect timing on this video Joe. I am finishing up tracking on my 1st EP, thanks to you and Graham.

Great tutorial, very useful, thank You so much!!

Hi Joe, I subscribed to your channel. Very helpful video. Wonderful contrast comparing one of your first and last recording. Progression is life is the best thing! See you at the next video! Cheers from the Netherlands!

Oh my gosh! Thank you!

Thought I had a mix done yesterday, but I came up against the volume problem...again! After doing some quick research I used a limiter to make some adjustments this morning, with improved volume. After watching this video I'll sit back down with the mix one more time to try to get those volumes where I want them with the limiter before I let the song leave the nest for good. Thank you.

Great video, thank you very much for the help 👍

Great video, thanks much!

I needed this, thank you.

Thanks a lot. Very helpful!

The reason I love this channel is because I am a studio one user and you always do tutorials using stock plugins. A tutorial using a $200 plus plugin does not help me unless I am rich enough to she'll the money out for that same plugin. Thanks Joe.

I've been watching your videos for years and using Studio One. Thanks for all the tips! When I heard you say that you were from Yazoo City, a town I used to play music venues quite frequently, I wondered if you and I had ever crossed paths? keep up the great work!

Joe this peice here is so dope thanks again. your the man my brother. perfect answer to my Question, thanks again...

Another good video Joe.

Thanks a lot Joe!!!

Thanx a lot, Joe, I like you video about Studio One! Best regards! )

Just found your channel, Joe! I am now an EXCITED new subscriber 😁 you remind me of myself in a way... we make the MOST of everything we have instead of spending incredible amounts of money on loads of expensive equipment. Keep up the good work! I am excited to watch the rest of your videos. IT’S BINGE TIME!

So you started as Joey, went to Joseph and ended up as Joe. That's acceptable.

Joe that Gandalf ref just gained you 10k cool points in my book. You frikin rock star you. Thanks for the continuously excellent content!

Hey Joe, This video of yours was really helpful and appreciated. I was able to get improved sound levels exporting my files and the sound levels was just as great when listen using other modes of playback 👏

Cool! Cheers from Portugal 🍺🤘

I really appreciate ur knowledge n jewels that u give us .... thanks 💯😎💪🏾 #studioOne

Hehe printed labels from a home printer on a homemade CD :)) Don't be too hard on your first album, it's the best and most magical part of your long journey through your music life, it's super romantic and sentimental for me even if technically it's worth nothing...

Great video, thank you! And don't sell yourself short, you were a singer-songwriter even back then!

Good video. Once again. And your high school song sounds very good

The old song isn't that bad. :). Cool tips.

than you very instructive and useful.

This is all I needed.... Thanks so much 😎🙏

This intro is so funny with your editing, love it.

Hey Joe, thanks a lot bro for that information!!! It answered some questions i had in my head for the longest. PEACE

This vid was a big help. Thank you Joe!!!!

Bro thank you!! I almost gave up on engineering and making music I really appreciate it ✊🏼🤟🏽

I like your "old song" it's beautiful

Great HighSchool Song ! Great Music Great Work !

That's cool, liking this a lot. Subscribed! :)

@joe it makes sense to work this way

I finally resolved the mystery of the limiter !!! Thanks to your explanation

oh man so much help!!!

Awesome explanation...thanks

THANK YOU! I have been looking for how to do this, but all the other videos are way to complicated to follow

I learn so much from you.....and....it helps!!! Thank you so much man! :-)

Love your videos Joe. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. Hey, Yazoo huh!?! Did you ever know Linus Hall from Yazoo? I lived in Nashville TN and met Linus there. I actually painted his house as he was developing his brew. Now he sells it as Yazoo craft beer! This was back late 90's...

Brilliant

Boy!! You can saaaaang!!❤

Great Vid! Thank you!

joe thanks a lot please more on EQ comp.limiter and reverb

Joe, you just helped me"Spread my wings and fly" with my audio volume! 😂😂 Seriously though, thanks much for sharing this tip. I am new to Studio One and mixing and I'm going to check out Dueling Mixes!!

you should really mention headroom and frequencies below 30hz taking all the headroom although its not perceptibly audible. There is more to increasing volume than just throwing on a limiter, which as a brick wall compressor will potentially destroy the dynamics of the song. On another note, its also very important that nothing clips pre master bus and on the master bus

Mmmmm, that's very helpful! I used to use limiter (fab filter) but i used to make adjustments based around loudest part of my songs. Still using that k-14 thing around 0 db. Now i know, thanks :)

The first song its amazing to !!!

i wish i could listen to your 1st album, it's like in the era of america, csny and seals n crofts . simple and dreamy music.

Hey Joe... Love "Fighter!" Sounds great. May I ask what effects you used on your voice to get that great vocal sound? Thanks for any info. Love all your videos!

thx my man!!!!

You was cracking me up when you were listening to your high school song...

Thanks for the sharing

That back to the future clip was great 😄

Great video! You just made my life so much easier’

A big thanks from China! Previously I was covering Thomas's ‹Victory›… it's my first time to touch orchestral music remaking, kind of too complex for me IoI, I was using another option rather than K 14, sounds always strange… after watching your video finally got some feeling about limter and sounds better. now instruments/notes and some basic mastering are done, I believe there are more to learn, more to change… subscribe you now, thanks again!

It's good that this video is up! My first go round with a limiter was for a quick slap together thing that we made up for a radio interview. Needless to say we didn't know what we were doing and completely took all the dynamics out of the kick drum and made it imperceptible in our mix.... but at least we were loud lmao. What limiter settings would you recommend for metal?

Great info bro, thanks. Question......does this technique apply to other genres as well?

Nice song

Will definitely try it. Hope we have some k level meters in FL Studio limiters

Helpful videos 👍

Awesome.. where can I find the video on how to master ? Thanks

What is the name of limiter You used in this tutorial? By the way good job! :)

You are so funny.....you are doing great for music community ....thnx!

Thanks so much great info! But one question which template did you click on to get where you’re at?

thanks so much man

Great video! Question: what kinda studio monitors r u using?

Thank you Joe. I have learned so much from your videos. I'm glad I have found some one that actually shows how to do things without going so fast I can't even follow the cursor. I you belonged to Patreon as a creator I could afford to help you with 1or 2 dollars a month. Being on Social Security sucks.

Nice video thanks for taking the time to explain. Have a dumb n00b question - I have a electronic drum module that has some pretty neat Compression and EQ features on it for the drum bus and I'm wondering - if I set my compressor Threshold to 0.0 dB, 1:1 ratio, the fastest attack (5 ms) and release (20 ms), and only play with the Output Gain slider, is that in effect making it a Limiter? Or is that called something else when I set those parameters that way? Keep rockin!
