Hi, I'm Max (@nervzofficial) and I run FL Studio Tips.
Today I will show you secrets about Headroom, why you (don't) need it, when headroom is important, what Bit-Depth has to do with it. I will also show you how to export your mixes for mastering and explain why there are a lot of misconceptions out in the internet about it.
This video is made to celebrate the release of our Full Mastering from Start to Finish Course ( MixElite.com/Mastering-Course ). Mastering is the last process before your track is published, and most producers completely underestimate how powerful it is and how it can change their song from amateur to professional sounding in just 5 simple steps. It's like putting a dirty sportscar on a car show.
In this course you will get to know every detail of professional masters, how to do it with the best available and stock plugins, as well as theory behind every concept, how it developed over the years and how insanely powerful Mastering is as soon as you get it right!
Over 40+ start to finish lessons, all genres, no theory required, just as we were sitting side by side in the studio.
Cheaper than any mastering service.
Techniques in the course are applicable for every genre, such as dubstep, progressive house, future house, drum and bass, hip-hop, RnB, bass house, deep house, hard trap & many more!

I never mastered my tracks in - 6db, I mix my track with full of headroom already. And yes there are no perfect rules for Mixing & Mastering, its all about Ear Training. Don't follow the numbers use your ears. Absolutely if it sounds good it's good. Normal listeners don't give a f*ck how you mixed and mastered and which plugins and sounds you used. Final output should be nice n clear.

@Desmond Tresfaye I think If you are a good listener and your choice of music is pretty good, your ear training develops with your age from childhood. I remember when I was a kid I used to play with the Bass and Treble knobs on the audio cassete player.. And if you can notice what changes are happening to the sound, I think your ear training starts with that. Then I used to play with DVD Player's Eq presets and tried to understand which one is best for my speakers. I also used Virtual DJ and Audacity in the beginning and it really helped to understand the sound and what a particular tool does (such as Echo, Delay, Phaser, Flanger, Noise Reduction etc). It helped me to get familiar with these names and when I came into music production these names weren't new for me, I already knew what it will do to the sound. So it comes with the time, curiosity of learning and your love for the Music. No one can teach you what to listen and how to feel the sound, it totally depends on you.

My theory for why this became a thing: 32 bit float didn't exist until 1985 and even then DAWs weren't widespread until later. I also suspect that 32 bit float wasn't implemented into DAWs until later on. Basically much like music theory, mixing and mastering rules didn't get updated and we basically got stuck with outdated information.

Please dont clip your master while mixing. Doing so might create artifacts which may make you think is part of the track's timbre but when it gets normalised all of that grit would be gone. Yes you can recover clipped 32bit floating point mixes but you risk fooling yourself while mixing. Something like recovering a clipped 32bit floating point mix is what you do at the most dire of times and makes you look like a noobie. Conclusion: Just leave some headroom it's not a big deal.

Hi, Max. I already have the Full Course which i purchased a couple of months ago and i thought it was really in-depth and fantastic to watch, Since I dont have a musical background, however I've found it so helpful and a gamechanger to the way I make my beats. I would like to ask a question in regards to the Full Bundle being sold currently as it states it comes with the Full Mastering course. And since i pre own the bundle, is there a chance that people like me who already have the full course also get an update to the full mastering course? i massively appreciate everything you guys do. If you do read this thank you.

I checked the price for the course which is not affordable for me and even for producers who purchased sound gadgets and DAWS by saving pennies after a very long time. However the videos available on FL Studio Tips are much knowledgeable to understand the music production. Always a different approach and tricks are found here which delights the mind. 🔥🔥
Whooo.... This mastering course gonna be lit. 😍😍 Hatsoff to PML Team and Nervz for providing us all those amazing courses. It helped me alot in my production. 🥺 I really appreciate hugely to their work on giving us Epic production tricks. Thanks 😎
I've been waiting for this Fl Studio mastering course and here it is! Ive learned so much from the other Fl Studio videos. Your concepts are the best Max. Thanks for the great tips as always!!
I've been saying this for a long time, because all DAWS use floating point maths, you have infinite headroom until you export. You can simply turn the master fader down. Great video! (You got to it before me lol, was going to do a video on this too!)

@@nebroskitheraut6705 Surprised to see a new reply after all these months, but actually, I do know what I'm doing. I'm a DSP scientist. If you don't know what that is, basically we work with everything behind the scenes in mathematics regarding audio signals. So to clarify a few misconceptions: decibels is very a shaky term, and has no absolute meaning whatsoever. Because all DAWs use floating maths, even if your track was clipping at 30db+ over 0db, if you export at 32bit and normalize, the audio will be restored to its original state, and you easily turn the master fader down to achieve your 3db of headroom. The point I'm making is... concepts on headroom is a highly misconstrued topic! And as a mathematician and scientist, I have been stressing this for years! The true thing that you should concern yourself with as a mixing and mastering engineer are two things: dbTP, and LUFs. That's it. Tracks should be kept just barely, and I mean BARELY under -14LUFs and -1dbTP so that no distortion occurs during the encoding process when publishing music to streaming sites. The reason this matters is because if your track is above -14LUFs, it's simply going to be turned down by the sites which can cause distortion. Second, dbTP being kept under -1dbTP can assist lossy compression algorithms not causing issues with a clipping/distorted waveform when encoding. I'm sorry you think I feign expertise, but I assure you, I'm only here to provide insight! If you have any questions regarding audio, you can contact me: shinyukoinquiries@gmail.com and I will be sure to reply!
i love it when the fl render finish sound clip at 100dB 3:16
This channel is a blessing
You always have a different approach to tell. Good one.🔥🔥

32 bit wav has very big dynamic range. The bigger the dynamic range, the more headroom you can achieve. the 32-bit float WAV file has 770 dB more headroom. That's why i'm not afraid if my master is clipping when i'm mixing.
AU5 was mentioning that once in a video and I am so glad you are addressing it here too!

bro .. the best producer content I've seen!
The advice is correct if you don't use group /sidechain /master compressions, or clipping, or envelope shaping. In that case levels are proportional and can be recovered at any time. Still, if you are not using any of the above, I've got doubts you are actually mixing, because they are essential tools in rock music or anywhere you don't simply "make the levels, eq, fx and export". Another downside of the suggestion is on the educational level. You will never be able to translate your skills on analogue or in live situations. Gain staging is something every sound engineer should know about, even if the DAW allows you to be ignorant about it.

You blow up my mind every time Max. Thanks for the knowledge shared man
The reason you want to lower each track individually instead of just the master, is because if your tracks are already distorting going to the master, lowering the master doesn't prevent distortion it's just lowering the volume of the already distorting signal.

Hmm he did explain thats not the case with 32 bit. Dont get confused about this whole clipping thing, its all just numbers. With 32 bit, if it was clipping when you exported, it means for example whatever you using to play back the sound cant handle whatever is above 0db. All the information is still there since 32bit can handle more info, unlike 16bit, but your hardware program just cant reproduce all of it accurately. When you then normalize this 32bit in your daw, all it does is move numbers around so they at safe levels around that 0db mark. Everything is still relatively the same in terms of loudness, its just that the numbers have been shifted to allow the audio to be played back without that clipping. It doesnt change/affect the audio the same compression does. All the dynamics are preserved so you really wouldnt have lost anything
