    can you please break down what each effect(compression, delay, reverb, etc)does and demonstrate how to use it? so many channels never actually explain what they are, when to use them and how to use them.

  • @KaranRao9918

    Al videos need about different Compressors, Saturation, And Reverb & Delay, and all other tools use in whole mixing process. and also how to achieve loudness of track and how to use different limiters like waves, izotop, and FF L2 & etc.

    Hello and really cool youtube channel, I have followed you for a long time and you have taught me a lot. I've seen your video where you mix Adele, I've always wondered if you put plugins on each track, or if you use a bus to process all bg vocals. Do you have a video where you describe it. thanks from Ronni Garner Denmark
