Whoa, that 0.6dB mid raise in the vocals was extremely impactful.

Haha the pure disdain on his face when he says "laptop speakers"

He was one of the teachers at a 12 week online mastering course at Berklee. One of the best classes I ever attended.

I’d been using mid/side eq on my mastering for the first time recently with great results, but had no understanding until this great explanation. Thanks. I get it now

Top notch presentation by a top notch presenter. Thank you for posting this.

Brief and detailed coverage of the fundamental things to watch out for when it comes to Mid/Side treatment!

Thank you sir, you are the "Mr. Rogers" of mastering.

Took me a few times to understand but I eventually took it in. Great tip about spreading hi fq info to the sides. Also nice to note that elements within the mid/mono are preceded louder so it's important to control the elements i.e. Percussion /bass and lower end of vocals within the mid. Lastly great tip that compressing elements in the mid can "move their presence" back. Really wish I could afford Ozone I love the fact that you can crossover different bands and work on a specific band/section of fq for compression, distortion, mid side, etc. thanks Jonathan and Izotope for a great video!

Just wanted to say thanks Johnathan and Izotope.. I find your content very educating. There is a lot of info that is unreliable but I like the fact that I know you are always on point.

This is some great content and presented so well that I looked up Jonathan Wyner and found out he worked with The Residents and Snakefinger, which really made me flash back to the 90s, when I used to listen to those a lot. Anyway, it's kind of hard to come across content on KZfaq that's explained so succinctly. Thanks!

A very interesting perspective. Thank you for the info and the manner in which is was presented. I feel like I just learned something extremely important here.

I literally bought analog de esser, comps and eq just to master in M/S and oh boy, was it worth it. Then you just re-compress in stereo to glue everything again and limit. It just sounds SO cool.

Great video. Great teaching. I know why he's Education Director.

"I'll park the threshold wherever I want" - Jonathan Wyner

Sometimes I watch youtube videos and wonder if the presenters are testing you or considering the things they're presenting in the material that they 're presenting. We're used to vocals coming from a single mic in the center or several mics in a mono type of configuration, and this sounds like it was probably recorded in stereo and Jonathan sounds as if he's coming from both sides and maybe even a little behind me, as opposed to right in front of me. Could be in my head, but seemed to go away or significantly decrease when I put my audio in mono. Thank you for the very clear breakdown of mid/side and desibilance and the likely impact of their use.!

I could listen to Jonathan Wyner talk all day ...

All these tutorials from Izotope are gold! Love them

The real teacher 👨‍🏫

What a gentleman, beautiful presentation and great advice.

wow this information just changed my mixes.

this guy is an absolute GENIUS! she just explain in a split second!

Thank you, really useful video, very clearly and concisely explained.

Wow. I think your video is going to save me on a mastering project that I have been struggling with. I just subscribed. Fantastic videk.

Thanku so much.. master,love from India .my mixes suffers t lack in excitement. Ur lesson helped me so much in realizing to make my mix better.. Thank u so much guru.

Love the mono de-essing ... Sounds really good to me

I like this guy, his explanation is nice

Been using this technique more and more - great information!

Jon literally looks like a mad genius scientist. ;)

most realxing education video =)

What a wonderful n worthful tutorial sir. Thanks n God bless u sir

Very informative and enjoyable to watch thank you

Technically, Mid is not what's absolutely identical: it's the sum. If I had 1K in Left and 2K in Right, they would have zero correlation, zero commonality. But those frequencies would appear in *both Mid and Side.* Mid would contain L+R and Side would contain L-R. From a production standpoint the stereo staging model is the best one to think about, especially if you're used to headphones.

what an amazing teacher!

Mr Wayner ur a magician! Tambourine trick blew my mind (I didn't get it though but I could hear it) Amazing!

Awesome as usual. Thanks Jonathan

He explained this very clearly.

Good educator & also good man. all his tutorials are great

Interesting....Thank you Izotope, thank you Jonathan

when the guys who make mastering tools don't master their videos. seriously, I had to turn up my monitors to 100% to get to moderate levels coming from another video lol

I'm watching greatness.....wow!

Always quality from this guy

Wow, great content! A learn a few important things. Thanks

Great tutorial, Jonathan.

Great vid, however one correction. He mentioned, during the beginning, that if you add a speaker with the same sound, you will get double the power ( I paraphrase) the physics are, if you double the surface area (adding another speaker doing the same thing) you gain exactly 3dB, not double the power. It takes 10 times the power the double the output.

Thank you!

Very good, nice video and professional.

Awesome, thank you. 🙏

Thanks. That was great information.

Wow what an informative video sir hats off to you 🙏👏🎩😍

Awesome lesson. Thank you very much.

Great tute, keep em comin'! :)

Thanks for the info - this was a big help.

so well explained!

Really helpful tip to me. Many thanks!

Great video as always from Mr. Wyner BUT I have to ask: why, when he's talking about levels and panning at the beginning and how having something panned in the center is louder than if being panned to one side or the other he ignores pan law settings?

Thanks Jonathan, very useful info on how 2 better use Ozone! Please answer this would u? IF I RECORDED N MIXED DA WHOLE THING, WHY WOULD I EQ DA WHOLE TRACK AT MASTERING, IF I CAN SPECIFICALLY ADJUST EACH SINGLE TRACK?

Thanks for showing

Love these tips thanks!

I can't help but notice how the M/S term is maybe not correct for some uses. I thought that referred to a very specific dual microphone stereo recording technique. In many places I see it used to refer to Mids and Highs 'separation' through EQ in a regular stereo audio track. That confuses me a bit.

I

Just awesome.

great video!

Fantastic video,

The mid part isn't just the MONO part of the audio. It is also the stereo part of the signal that is identical on both sides. Is that correct?

Amazing

Helpful video thank you!

thanks very much

Do you switch back to stereo after mid side processing? Would the same changes carry over to stereo or does it requires to remain in mid side mode after processing?

Hello, I ask you again IZotope, is it very difficult to enable automatic subtitling in Spanish ?. I have no choice but to download the video, upload it to my channel and enable the subtitle myself. Thanks for the videos that go up

Very helpful. Thanks

Starts at 4:15

Which izotope plugin were you using??? I want to buy that.

excellent sir...

The Real Deal...Thanks

really does something!

How did he focus in the EQ only on a band of the spectrum?

This man is a boss

[from the back seats] Louder!)))

newb question here. Live concert taper. Good at capturing great recordings, but still have so much to learn about mastering. Is this all assuming that the master was recorded in mid-side mode? Or is it possible to use the tools he's demonstrating on a regular 2 channel stereo recording

No discussion of side processing in phase correction.

Mehn!! Thank you so much for this.. it really helped.

Disappointed that you didn't address using Mid/Side in the Imager

Thank you

Thanks!

umetisha dingi

Great sir

actually now listening to music in the car is probably the most common way to listen to music

Nice.

this guy has sage knowledge on audio minutia

amazing

Sweet!

Mid, side, top and bottom. But does it sound good?!

You need to master the sound of this video sir.. the sound not meets the default of standard dB limiter.. ☺️

perfect

what plugin is this?

Спасибо!очень полезное видео!

1:40 the music production community in a nutshell

I dig that shirt.

how the heck did you do the solo equing to hear just the eq alone in 7:30? someone help please lol

me dá uma licença de presente rsrs :) abraços aqui do brazil.
