@@Frikoppie hahahaha

😂 I don't wanna see any face on my plugin. Not even if It's CLA's.

Lollll

😅 damn that's one creepy robot

me too!!!

Best comment 👍🏻

Spectral understanding, ears (NOW WITH THE POTENTIAL AID OF CORRELATING THAT TO VISUAL INFORMATION AS WELL! LET'S ASK DEVIN TOWNSEND ABOUT THAT!). Does the average person even know how garbage compressors and EQs are? Technically compressors simply lose information. How cool is that?

@@ViziaFilms How the hell do you have 211 subscribers?

@@ViziaFilms Really? You reckon I don't know false when i see it?

True. Nowadays, where you can allways go back to your mix in a DAW, it is not necessary to make a master the „old way“. A good mix and finish it with a little bit eq, comp and a limiter on the bus and it’s ready. Problems can allways get fixed in the mix today.

Arbitrary dimension spectral harmonics or gtfo

Link please

IDC. Plugins are so good now that you don't need OTB mastering. IJS (bka I'm just saying).

Okay I didn't even catch half of the abbreviations you used in that comment but I think I understand the point you're trying to get across! @@TheReal_E.IRIZARRY I absolutely agree! If you -needed- outboard gear there would be no initiative for developers to enable u to apply effects to the "master" track in ur preferred software :D

Interesting definition of "full control" that...I suppose YOU have mastered control of things that give rise to the abstract visualizers that are always wrong, for control? Did you know that math is wrong, btw? Did you know you can't actually make an analog piece of hardware's sound converted through software sound like that analog hardware (not that any stage of that wasn't entropic to begin with)? That is aside from the analog piece of hardware being immensely wasteful, vague and stupid (if you're trying to make it in software, doubly so).

You mean Izotope? Yeah no. They souled out.

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@FrikoppieYou mean, sold out, right?!? 😂 I think out of the provided examples, it would be the one I’d gravitate towards. But, I’d need to hear other genres to be Shure©!

@@adampavelec857 To be Shure, Superlux mics are okay, considering.

As a newbie, I got Air strike 2, air drumsynth, ujam mellow 2, bassline and such (various overpriced products) for like $10 (combined, for that combination of the things that I will likely never use coz I dunno, people aren't good enough at the hearing thing). It's a pity that FL studio has that dancing robot, isn't it? Especially with things (though inferior) such as maximus. Garbage parametric EQ too (just like all the others). Useless to me.

Sweet stories to tell you about how Cockos souled out too, btw.

Actually, black metal is the best way to separate kvlt from the unvklted.

I think Ozone is the only option that you can give the “vintage” style master. I wouldn’t be too sure how well it does it but the fact that it’s an option is pretty impressive

Yes, thats a good one, thanks! The music they always use is not that hard to get it acceptable. But, rock, or other music with different dynamics is never used in these types of examples

Yeah I typically rip out everything except the EQ and the limiter. Very occasionally the imager.

​@@audionerdlilcuzbecause you dont know how to combine theirs settings.

​@@choosers5177prly an ozone 9 user I bet. EQ is the only thing 9 can do right

@choosers5177 snarky and judgmental comment. And you missed his point. He is agreeing with the original comment that the starting settings are too hot. Simple as that. Since they are too hot, it is easier to simply remove most of the settings and start adding them in one by one. That should not be the case.

@Joe-mz6dc ozone is good for its ai mastering chain and tweaks for each channel strip. If you gonna do it mannually, then why not put all ozone plugins one by one in the mastering channel?

"Sound engineers" need to go learn geometry and dynamics first.

I've also noticed that most of the ai plugins remove the midrange and boost high frequencies like crazy

Try version 11 - massive improvement

@@markvmmm Do you know that "AI" can't actually understand things or reason so it can never really know what correctness is? Fizzicks.

The misnomer regarding AI is that indeed, it is those who "code" that "AI" (99% of the "AI services" are not provided by those who actually understand or coded the heuristics based attempt at algorithmic consolidation, without even any sort of basic understanding of fundamental geometry, integration, dynamics), that are the actual AI.

@@robbiemichaels2347 No it's okay, I'll be avoiding NI products as I have successfully done for decades.

It´s old but very good indeed.

I'd not use any of those. *PS. I don't fuck around.

@@Frikoppie Why not?

@@VagendaAdnegav Refresh the page and maybe you'll see why?

​@@Frikoppie Rather than tackle your ego myself, I instead asked the very technology you doubt what it thought of the things you had to say. Isn't it interesting that there even is a technology that can respond? Here is what AI had to say. "The person's critique raises several valid points about the limitations of AI, particularly in the context of physics simulations and understanding complex systems. However, their perspective might be somewhat overly pessimistic or one-sided. Let's consider their main points: AI and Inverse Dynamics: It's true that AI and machine learning models often struggle with inverse dynamics, especially when the underlying physical processes are complex and not well understood. AI models, especially those based on data-driven approaches, require a substantial amount of accurate data to make reliable predictions. Without a solid understanding of the underlying physics or sufficient data, these models can indeed be limited. Context and Underlying Principles: AI, particularly in its current state, does have limitations in understanding context and underlying principles. Machine learning models, including those in AI, typically learn from data rather than from first principles of physics. This means they can miss nuanced, context-specific interactions that are not well-represented in their training data. Limitations of Current AI Technologies: The person is correct in stating that current AI technologies have limitations, especially when it comes to complex, real-world problems like physics simulations. These limitations stem from various factors, including the quality and quantity of data, the complexity of the models, and the computational resources available. However, it's important to note that AI and machine learning are rapidly evolving fields. Researchers are continually developing new methods to overcome some of these limitations, such as incorporating physical laws directly into AI models (physics-informed neural networks, for example) or using hybrid approaches that combine data-driven methods with traditional physical modeling. In conclusion, while the person's critique correctly highlights some of the current limitations and challenges faced by AI in complex physics simulations, it may not fully account for the ongoing advancements in the field. AI's capabilities in these areas are not static, and there's potential for significant improvement as the technology develops."

IK One

And comes free with the DAW

Since the master limiter typically goes last, they must come before.

i was really surprised by how good lurssen is. i tested it against a master i had done myself and they were really close....almost scarily close. the lack of any decent metering is the biggest flaw with it though. best to use the plugin version in your daw followed up by a good metering plugin, so you can gauge your loudness levels.

@@Simeon_Harris Hmm... I agree that the lack of metering is not good, but that can easily be remedied by using either meter plugins (stand-alone) or by routing the signal through your desk to get the VU value. 😃
