@joshrainbow-IceTenor Жыл бұрын

Hi, love the video. I also use the Izotope. I have a question about masking. I write mainly orchestra pieces and some have vocals with it. I place the instrument that belong together in a bus. The orchestra uses the whole frequency spectrum so every group will always clash into another group. Do you unmask all the groups - one could get crazy trying to free up all the instruments - I am pretty new in unmasking. I am getting good results with vocals and drum with bas - but with the orchestra there are so many instruments and when they are playing all together incl percussion. What kind of advice can you give me that I can try out tomorrow. Thanks in advance

@matnetik Жыл бұрын

Hey Josh, thanks for the comment here - I think using unmask for instruments that sit on top of each other in the exact same frequency spectrum is the best use case (as you mentions, kick and bass, vocals and guitar, etc). For orchestral music, I think one of the most important aspects is using the stereo field. Make sure certain instruments are panned, use widening and doubling, keep instruments that clash in frequencies away from each other by keeping one centered and the other wide, etc. Also spend time using subtractive EQ to fit sounds together like a puzzle instead of overlapping. It's all about placement! Hope this helps-

A yo Mat! So should I put an instance of NU4 on each individual track...Put it on the MASTER , or put it on different MIX BUS tracks? Also do I add reverb and other filters after NU4?

@matnetik Жыл бұрын

Hey hey, it's entirely preference on where you put it, I wouldn't put it on the master (although you could!) I would put it on individual instruments to lock in the tone of each sound that you want to use it on. As far as where it goes in the chain, also kind of preference, you could put it first, then add your stereo effects such as reverb, delays, etc - this way you are effecting the sound after it is balanced- Or you could put it after everything to balance the overall track output with compression, eq, etc post effects - all about how you want that track to sound! Thanks for watching

@ItsVisto 6 ай бұрын

can neutron 4 also track in real time with the sound it analyzes from a vocal? like once it analyzes a vocal can you now record with that sound going forward after it analyzes it?

@matnetik 2 жыл бұрын

I don't think having a "digital" mix is a bad thing. I think there is a very different sound between analog and digital and that's 100% okay. This project is 95% digital, all VST plugins (yes lots of analog recorded samples within those plugins), ran through digital mixing plugins (eq's compressors, effects) and produced on a digital platform (logic). This does give the song a certain characteristic. The only analog sounds in this project are the live sax and vocals but again, processed in the box with digital plugins. For this track, it's the sound I was going for - cheers!
