just some dude explaining trivial nonsense that matters nothing. all that matters is making something good. that might mean there are phase issues who ENRICH the mix. If you remove phase issues you end up with this guys terrible sounding boring sound. focusing on trivial stuff like this distracts from the heart and soul of music mixing.

Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall.

I can only imagine the hairs being pulled on audiophiles when hearing they can finally use a filter side chain lmfao Converting people one video at a time 🔥

I've been eating tons of music related infos for 15 years, but never heard about using filters in such a way. Thanks Dan.

Used this methods almost everytime since I discovered parallel filtering two years ago. Great stuff to massage your sounds inside your mix.

As always, best audio tutorials on KZread.

This is probably one of the neatest little tricks I've ever seen on youtube.. nice!

Brilliant. I've done variations on this using something like the Waves Abbey Road Saturator in parallel to the mix bus, cut the lows and highs and just bring it in until it becomes obvious, then back it off a bit. Great video.

Dan, again, thanks a bunch for your video. I am actually using parallel EQ, but now, I will use it more. Can't wait to see the next video. That type of PC never used it. Cheers

Awesome, as usual! Can’t wait for the bandpass video!

As usual, true gem ! Thank Dan !

last time you made a parallel eq video i just thought it was a weird flex, but this time you showed a great usecase. i can see myself making exciter sends like that

love it when Dan drops knowledge bombs and then says "wait..... it gets better"

Crazy tune Dan, very good tutorial!

Phase issues are so trivial to me. Just use your ear. I never had a problem with phase no matter what crazy FX chain I concocted. If anything the phase "problem" was actually what made the mix spicy. It's all subjective.

You are a mountain of wisdom Dan. I am forever thankful for looking into the name I saw mentioned in a fabfilter video years ago. Would love to meet you by coincidence some time.

love the vocals there! and thanks for the video, great info

Parallel high-pass + comp send on vocals does wonders, very radio-like top-end 🤟😁

I do love your vocals and they do fill my hole.

A standard biquad PEQ will have a bandwidth of 1 octave (1 octaves above half the band gain) at Q=1.414 (square root of 2), while Fabfilter equates that to 2. When Q3 has a Q of 1, a standard EQ will be at 0.707. This holds true for the bell type filters, but not for the shelves, which scale very differently (but line up at Q1/Q0.707 again). You were close with the 0.72 approximation, but my OCD prevented me from ignoring that, I'm sorry!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Always appreciate it...

I can’t wait for the next episode.

Your one pole curve filled my drum hole. I didnt even realize my drums had a big hole, I thought I was making room for midrange elements and it sounded fine/good. when I use the teased trick at the end I feel as though that hole gets filled and sounds more like you're there with the drums but still doesn't step on other elements. Maybe this is due to compression or saturation; the stereo image is also greatly enhanced. Thanks again for the awesome tricks, can't wait to hear you expound on this super cool method!

what an absolutely amazing video

Dude you make learning music production fun and engaging thank you so much! :)

This why modular analog synths are awesome. Phase errors give it that unique sound.

Hell yeah more Worrall!

Ugh, killing me with that teaser at the end!

Excellent video as always.

I'm your fan Dan! Keep it up! 🔥

The audio oracle blesses us again, awesome...

I use parallel bandpass (Usually LPF + HPF) for my drums in every single mix I do (something like what Thcad Blade does), can't wait to see your approach.

Love it. Good teaser too.

Great tips as always, and a really interesting demo track! With the heavy autotune it sounds like robot Gregorian chant.

Can't wait for the next Installment.

Thank you so so much dan, your my hero

Jeez, this seems like something I should have thought of by now. Soooo useful and elegant to use an EQ send for groups! Thank you! Side note those graphs are Outstandingly Helpful for understanding your concepts!

I’ve watched maybe 30 videos & you finally gain a sub 🥰 hahaha . They’re always good 👍🏻

I had this idea a while ago, saturating and compressing a parallel channel with only the high frequencies. It works wonders on pretty much any dry source! Now I finally know why it works :D

Unfortunately, any saturators I tried in parallel broke and chewed my highs. Aprox. 9 - 15 kHz is a very uncomfortable band for saturation for me.

@@lennartrauhe7194 unplugged instruments (incl. drums - 4 channel recordings mainly) + electric guitars taken from the cabinets without DI + vocals. When recording with my portable equipment I get clean enough sound, but with highly energetic high-end, e.g.: rides from the overhead position. Trying to tame this with the eq is a problem as the eq reduces the level not energy (i.e. the acceleration of high frequencies), taming highs with the saturators chews the highs (slams or turns them into porridge, as I like to say). New native Reaper's antialliasing might help somehow. Shall try soon. However, the trick Dan proposed might be great for properly recorded signals with mild highs.

One of the greatest cliffhangers ever 😩😁👍

As interesting as ever, thanks Dan !

Gonna try this out while i wait for the bandpass video my g!

Thank you for these great ideas sir!

You got around to making it! Yay. And nice singing and lyrics :)

My PerfoModule "Expandurator" Ableton Live Audio Effect Rack uses parallel bandpass trickery to boost a select frequency range. It's delectable!

Really really informative!!

You made my music better man, thankyou so much

That is cool. Great work.

You beat me to it Dan! Theres so much you can do with IIR filters beyond standard EQ. A lot analog EQs actually use parallel bandpass filters in thier designs for each bell/peak.

I used to use parallel band pass a lot and now I'm intrigued as to why it was such a good idea 😂

Good stuff. I'll have to mess with this in my next mixes.

best info...thank you

Amazing to see how you can basically switch between a Baxandall and a Pultec style curve :D

Really liked the low end trick idea, I'm going to give that one a try for sure thanks! Curious to know what natural phase would do, did you test that mode?

Thank you Dan. :)

The Airwindows LP and HP filters are my go-to for this. I don't know if Chris did something to compensate for the phase issues or if it's just luck/the material I use it on, but I've never had any phase issues with them.

The sum of a lowpass filter and a bandpass filter (multiplied by a specific gain) gets you to a proper low shelving EQ if mixed with the incoming signal. That is why the frequency response looks like the cutoff shifted in ProQ on 0 latency mode (it's not a simple Lp). As an experiment, take an SVF filter (usually this is the filter used in EQs - or in worse case biquads), add the Lp + Bp (multiplied by 1.5), and you get a shelving filter without any dipping. This can be enhanced into 24dB/Oct or any steepness without any issues just by stacking such patches in series and doing a bit of calculation on the mixing gain. This is closest to how this is solved in the analog domain anyways. The algorithm that you find in digital EQs with a nice symmetrical frequency response curve around the cutoff is a bit more complicated in terms of calculations. However, it is still based on calculations of a simple SVF's output ( Shelving = Lp*M^2+Hp*1/M^2+Bp*R*1/M^2 // (where M is the linear boost factor) ). Probably I'm going to make a small video about this since this looks more complicated when written than it is in reality.

Vocals sound great!!

Great video!! Any chance you could do the new pulsar massive passive eq review? Great sounding master eq Thanks
