    It had a good intention but your video is too confusing. There is too much information, plugins, technique, it’s a shame. I would like have something simple or perhaps clearer. I'm a little disappointed, this video is aimed at professionals and not simple producers like us. you talk about clipping, gain reduction, etc. we barely know what that means. We can obviously go elsewhere and find out more information then come back to your video but that would be no interest.

    The loudness war in EDM could be ended instantly by Pioneer putting LUFS meters instead of peak meters on their mixers, and putting an arrow where you should be sitting on the meter. Half the problem is you can't play more dynamic music, because chances are the clown DJ playing before you was already redlining the mixer with -4 LUFS bangers and the sound person has already rolled their eyes and turned the system down to compensate. There's no headroom for bigger peaks in this scenario

    You can add huge amounts of loudness with Kraftur through saturation but as it comes down to it’s clipper, it’s a roulette - sometimes it works fine (like in this example) but I’ve been trying it on another track and it simply shaves off too much.

  • @Zdrewe
    @Zdrewe22 күн бұрын

    Thanks a lot 🙏 usually “bad frequencies” or resonances can be found in 3-10kHz area but that highly depends on the track (you can go even as low as 1kHz. They’re caused by frequency buildups from layering different sounds or different sounds occupying similar spot. The way to identify them is usually by sweeping this frequency area with narrow bell curve although it can also be misleading. From my experience the best solution is either using tools like RESO by Mastering The Mix or Soothe. The “delta” mode in RESO gives a clear idea on where to find those. Both plugins have free trials and as long as Soothe is the goat, RESO deserve its flowers for being cheaper, more intuitive and more precise (last one in my opinion)

    most of the legendary music we heard from the past did not have "note by note phase fixing". i think if you have a big issue with phase you will hear it and if you don't then don't bother and get on with writing your song : D it's good to know but most times it's just working against finishing the most important thing => the song

    Now it may surprise you but…. I totally agree with what you said here. It’s hard to find a balance between being geeky of tiny little details and holding up to the legacy of being an “actual” artist. Some do really enjoy being nerdy and I think the best solution is to use those tips once you have the composition done. For example I had this track done but I couldn’t get to my preferred loudness level. Once I tried this technique it instantly improved the sound and now I have it scheduled for release at the beginning of July. Thanks for your insight 🙏

    @@Zdrewe i’m glad to hear you agree :D I think unfortunately tough most electronic music these days are focused on technical issues and are lacking on attitude and authenticity. I still hear records from early 90’s that i can hear on repeat and have none of this surgical things the new songs have. Like having a bit of random phase on your bass for instance might actually do good for you, having locked phase can sound like having all notes of a song with the same velocity. There is so much nuance to older records, some of them even sound shit and still the tracks hit a lot harder because their composition is more imaginative and relaxed. Getting into the studio with this mind set unfortunately doesnt happen so often, we are all guilty of this :D

    @@Zdrewe Another major thing is that you can make the sidechain trigger with another source. So, the way I do it is by duplicating the kick track and then disable it. Then I can put the audio of the pseudo kick as a trigger for the sidechain. And before I step into the compressor settings, I can edit the audio to get the desired curve result more easily. Many people usually replace the pseudo kick with a short click sound audio clip to replicate the sort of curve you demonstrated in the video.
