    Hey man thanks for this amazing video, wondering if you can help with this, I am using t racks classic clipper, when I use clipping in my mix buss channel do I need to gain match as well? Or do I just leave it as that

    You should always gain match bro, I use the TR5 Classic Clipper too and gain matching definitely helps dial in the sound.

    Distrokid didn't do that, KZread did. If the content is on KZread music then KZread does not allow comments. DistroKid does not actively control any accounts on KZread they do not have the legal grounds to do anything with your content other than release and if the service requests it of them remove content they have released.

    6:50 TIP for you: Inside the daw's mixer there is no cliping!!! Only the master output is important not to clip (when you export in 16 or 24 bit) !

    I know what you mean - you’re basically saying (if I’m not misunderstanding) that clipping / overloading an individual channel isn’t “bad” so long as the master output isn’t overloading. What I was trying to emphasize there is we can use a clipper to create headroom when things get hot, which therefore helps preserve headroom on the master output as well since it goes that way and combines with everything else in our mix. I realize I didn’t say it as explicitly as that obviously, but I think the logic applies. Perhaps a video dedicated to “properly overloading mixer channels without consequence” is in order 👀 Still a great tip especially for anyone who needs the insight! Thanks for sharing
