It was an absolute pleasure making this video. I love this craft of OURs. By the way, I created a comprehensive Audio Engineering training program that is helping music creators (like you) earn more revenue, expand their careers in the music industry, and increase their demand. It's called 'The Audio Engineering Blueprint'. Here's the link to learn more: theblueprint.samoricoles.com/

I’m an Audio Engineer/Musician and oh boy did this guy explain my entire school program in less than an hour. I payed over $18k for this and still took me years to learn most of the hacks I know today, hence why I’m still watching “KZread UNIVERSITY” to help me better understand the beauty of frequencies. This is a complete 101 on frequencies, and this person simplified it to its roots. I want to take the time to appreciate you for sharing this with the world, and would like to encourage anyone seeking constructive knowledge of audio to watch this video and make a life standard to know this basis. 👍🏻

@iamsamori

7 жыл бұрын

I am happy to hear that you found the video useful, Stefanie! EQing in the mastering stage depends on whether or not you still have control of the mix. In other words, if your mastering via the 'Stereo Out' or 'Main Out' in a mix that you're working on, you could still deal with frequency issues on a track by track basis. If your mastering from a 2-track stereo mixdown, then EQ decisions would be dependent on what you feel the mix needs (i.e. less mud, brighter high end, tighter mids, etc.). I know this doesn't give you a definite answer, but there are a few too many variables involved with mastering to be as specific as I wish I could be for you.

This is great, even for some of us more advanced producers. Sometimes we forget the basic science and get too clever with manipulation. I would say one thing though, but this is just my method so take it with a pinch of salt! I tend to do most of my boosting on the way in using hardware, and the clinical cutting I use plugins for that precision, then for laughs I usually run it back out for a final polish, but thats usually because I just love running my audio through some voltage!

You never stop learning and being inspired by techniques that others are using. One of the big challenges is to trust your methods, and most importantly your EARS. I see our craft as being guided by levels of generally accepted standards, and tried & true best practices. But there are not rules that are set in stone. Great ears, general knowledge of the basic audio tools, and a producer's instinct, can produce records that sound as commercially viable as tunes that get radio play.
