Buster mixing entirely on Tukan plugins lol.

Father Odeholm blessing again with his wisdom

spot on, love this quick guide. the really long mixing ones are too much to invest in.

Robins vocals are so sick even unmixed

I dig the Daath in the background

Just wondering, is your bass tone from the bass video previously? I love hm2 tone blending

Can you explain why export in 16 bit?

great video, anyone know of anything like this for ableton using stock plugins or free plugins?

does anyone know what song this is? because i recognized robin from allt, but its not one of their songs

the new Drumforge sampler is Buster's Signature Edition?

Hi Buster, how do you go about capturing the reference audio into Pro Q2? I use Cubase Elements 9 so I don't have sidechaining available. I use Pro Q2.

Nice one, is this a new Allt Song?

Does not sound like Allt to me. More like Thrown.

It's a song him and the guy from Allt threw together for the nail the mix video. Just a demo for mixing.

Yeah guys, that's what I thought as well :D Thrown feat Allt vocals maybe

Both guitars as well as bass *bypassed* sounded better in the mix.

The guitars sounded better without the scooped low-mids. That's where the most tonal information of the guitar is, as wella s the dynamics. That was one hell of a scoop. The bass sounded ok, even tho I prefer a little more OMPF (that's on the 200hz too). Drums are way too loud and clicky, I really didn't like the drums sound. Also, the eq matching at the end and the limiter fart completely ruined the mix for me. Like you can clearly hearing the low end buzzing, that is no bueno.

I find this tutorial misleading. You wanna start with a mix that sounds the best possible without any effect, then proceed with adding all that stuff. Your mix is unbalanced, drums are absolutely in your face. Also, the processing you're doing isn't really helping. You're cutting about -9db in the guitar's low-mids. You're basically nuking the frequency that contains the most tonal information, that is also responsible for the dynamics of the guitar. Then you're doing the same on the bass. This one is good, because it allow the guitar to sit in that "empty space" of low mids... Given that the guitars have any of it left. The bass is also very boomy, that is terrible. If you plan on boosting the bass low end then you gotta compress it. Otherwise it's gonna be too bouncy. The drums sound very raw and thin, you campressed them but actually you pulled out the peaks. On a kit that was already very clicky. I'm not sure if this counts as a "taste" thing, but I feel like the drums would have sounded much better if you made them fatter, not clickier. I really don't think the eq matching is helpful. It's pulling out tons of low end, which is already ruined by the bass's bounciness. The bass and the kick are fighting for the low end. You can't just slap an eq match on an unbalanced mix. Finally, the limiter. With all that low end going up and down, the limiter is just adding low-pitched farts to your mix. You also went on to fix a scratchy frequency with the high Q technique, like... That's like cleaning a window with a microfiber cloth, but the entire house is still in construction.

I think that’s a big part of the appeal of Buster’s mixes: a lot of hit techniques go against conventional wisdom. The result is visceral and repugnant. HLB and Thrown sound absolutely insane and dissimilar to a lot of more polished modern metal mixes. I listened to a song on your channel, your most recent upload. Sounded great! Very clean and fat. You’re clearly talented. But I’ve already forgotten most of what it sounded like

hey man, i listened to some songs on your channel and you’re clearly not inexperienced, but i’m not sure what you’re trying to accomplish with this comment? you’re clearly just arguing taste against taste, but the person you’re arguing against is a very experienced and profecient producer, mixer and mastering engineer within the metal community, so i’m not sure where you think the this information is going

This is considered advanced? Christ the bar is low nowadays....
