In this video tutorial, our instructor Julian (Bound to Divide) shows you his complete mastering process with free plugins (mostly Ableton Live stock audio effects). He starts by explaining the theory behind it. Then he proceeds onto the first step, which is soft clipping with the Glue Compressor and checking the LUFS loudness level in Voxengo SPAN. Then he chooses Channel EQ to equalize the track. What's next is checking the low end and rolling off the runble, saturation, limiting and checking the track in mono. Let's get started!

1:40 Soft Clipping & Loudness

10:77 Low End Check
11:14 Rolling off low end
12:25 Saturation
15:12 Limiter
18:19 Mono Check

Take your time and have plenty of breaks in-between. Try and listen to music that's different to reset your ear's, and lower the volume or you just keep pushing it back up. Play your music and listen to it from out side the room is a good tip because you can hear what's cutting through. but keep going mate, the more you do.

Hugely informative, thank you! Took away some side points as e.g. "use anorher Limiter than the stock one", and the Idea with a plain parametric channel eq (vs. EQ8) I took away as well, great stuff, thanks a ton!

I really like Ozone Pro and Smart Limit... but, like you said, for like the last 5%. If I have mixed stuff properly, there should not be much of a difference between running these 2 program's AI and what I already have. Often I find myself going and readjusting what the AI did and sometimes even turning off Ozone or Smart Limit a few times before I get it where I want it. Usually don't push it out after a round at it, either though.

Great content! Do you have a video that shows how to automatically switch between plug-ins. IOW, lets say I added a Tenor Sax plug-in to a track. Is there a way to automatically switch it to a Soprano Sax for a few bars then back to Tenor? Thank you!

I'm mixing/mastering on Mackie HR824's with ableton glue compressor.. following your tips.....kinda bedroom studio but should I take into account the nearfield flat responce or trust what I hear will work elsewhere? I guess I'm asking are my monitors good enough. they sound awesome but on other systems my mixes have mixed results. I'm doing Rap on Trap and Drill styles but messing with Classical influences, also popping out a bit with 5/4 and 7/8.

This is a really great tutorial. But when you're listening to the references aren't they going thru the master? So adding effects? So ur you're not comparing like for like ?

@Fylo. 6 ай бұрын
this may be a stupid question (i'm kinda new to mixing and mastering) but why don't the volume signal in SPAN go down when i lower the volume of each track/ and or the master channel? because i wanted to start mastering ( i thought i mixed it alright, everything is in balance, and volume nowhere higher than -6db), but according to SPAN on the master i'm already clipping a bit. I'm confused
@lamarthe_headcrab7687 Жыл бұрын
Is the actual LUFS read out value blocked by the cam footage? I am seeing it going up to around -10 -9... but not seeing actual value number.

Hey nice tutorial. Im confused though, most of the tracks I use as a reference are way too loud, they all clip on the master, these are tracks bought from iTunes for example. Do I need to turn the volume down of the reference tracks? but at the end they will have different dbs if I turn their volume down. cheers
@pr0metherion Жыл бұрын
I have same question
@aleqxndr Жыл бұрын
You have to set the channel output of the reference track to "Ext. Out" instead of "Master". Otherwise you process the already mastered to 0db reference track with your mastering chain!

A good the title is wrong.. I don’t want some obscure “free” malware plugins .. I was hoping you are using stock instead of free plugins. Still on Cubase 8.5 but maybe replacing lots of my legacy software with suite 11 .. which looks like a massive big box with almost all tools you can ask for thanks bro
@JohnJohnCrusher 9 ай бұрын
Dude. Nearly every pro level producer uses SPAN. It's that good. Far from obscure, as you'll find out as you continue through life. I'd recommend you get over it, and just get it. Low CPU, easy install, free, safe and incredibly useful. But hey...
