In late 2019 I saw one of your youtube video mixing etc, so in 2020 i got my equipment back and started producing again. All I am saying you played a big roll to motivated me to come back to music again. Thanks again my friend. Stay strong and bless

@katherinec4360 Жыл бұрын
@Splitting Time so I've been having issues with that lately - and it's always when I'm sound designing and I make a frequency that my ears are like BAD SOUND BAD SOUND I can feel them physically recoil. I've been working with a limiter on the master to make sure I'm not going over a certain db level, and that has helped extend my staying power and I haven't had any pain. Also, get yourself some good, musician grade earplugs for extra protection. let hardware/software protect you. I also use monitors as much as I can because it gives the sound waves some space to dilute before it hits your ears.

And even when you touch upon topics I'm very familiar with, I still have a blast sitting down, listening with you, and I still pick up some new tricks and tips. Thank you so much for broadcasting your experiences for us, and taking the time to explain things.

I'm mastering a grand piano & violin duet of 16 re-arranged Irish tunes, mostly from O'Carolan. I found that the Maximizer, even with everything but the mode (I like the IRC IV Classic) turned off, gives a bite to it. This worked ok on one of my tunes, but not another. I think I could hear the same on your tune here, which is maybe what you wanted. It was more bite and brighter than the reference track, to my ears. Thanks!

You go into such detail, and none of it's sugar coated or finite, it's absolutely what I needed to hear.
