    CORRECTION: I said I sang an A at 440 but I actually sang an A an octave below 440 at 220 so the harmonica are above NOT below!!

    I also use EQ modulation to make a nice high pass low pass filter that changes in lead melodys. By moving the bell up and down the spectrum and recording the movements. It's best to have a second bell modulation moving around to reduce peaks that might clip. I do it in nearly every song I make to a greater or lesser extent.

    Ok, Nathan, you've got me. My EQ'ing totally looks like a topographical map with all the "surgical cuts" I've been making due to sweeping and boosting to find "bad frequencies :) I might need to cut back on the sonic surgery haha. Really appreciated this, even as I've been working on this stuff for a few years now.

If adjusting frequencies on the overall master mix, how can an individual instrument be isolated from the main mix ? Thanks Nathan for clearing up confusion.

    This is where I get lost with Logic and recording: EQ stuff and compression/limiters/ expanders etc. Give me a heap of synths, modular. VST, keyboard versions, and Im like a pig in 💩 and can get on with the synthesis side of things with my eyes shut. Then I start recording and thats when it all goes wrong. Im going to have to check out a load of your videos I think. Am determined to work it all out. Can anyone recommend any good books that treat the reader like a dummy ? Something I can read in tandem with these excellent videos ? Ive been making music since 1987 so far from being a novice, yet these things like EQ etc have always scared me so Ive left that to other people. Now, I want to do it myself

    If the threshold of an EQ is 0db why would we try to breakthrough it? Shouldn't we be mixing the sound to not clip, and use something like -10db as the baseline?

  • @NathanJamesLarsen

    @NathanJamesLarsen

    2 күн бұрын

    dB in an EQ plugin is not the same as talking about global decibel ranges. When boosting an eq - don't think of it like we are "breaking past" 0dB - instead it is simply ADDING that amount into the signal. We still need to know what amount is being added - so a 5dB boost at like 8k is only adding 5dB to that frequency range. Yes, this makes the end signal louder - but you can simply turn it down. This isn't one of those things you need to get overly concerned about unless it's causing your whole signal to clip - in which case - just turn it down before the EQ.
