3 Steps That Transformed My Music Mixing Journey

3 Steps That Transformed My Music Mixing Journey
Bery good
You said something interesting but confusing to me 😊 about eq NOT been effected by the signal amount but by the signal itself 🤯🔨. What Do you mean by "Signal itself"? Do you mean reverb for instance?
Starts at 1:02
Hi Chris, great vid man. Question, so when ive Gain Staged with the pre-gain in mix console, you are definitely saying DO NOT touch pre-gain in mixcon after?
You can if you want, but you just need to consider that it will affect some of the plugins you might have on that channel, like compressor, limiters, clippers, saturators that will behave depending on the amount of signal they get.
For my style of music, -14 generally sounds best to me during the bulk of the song, like verse patterns.. but when it crescendos to the highest rocking part, my ears really want to go to more like -10.5 most times
Hi Chris, Is need to gain stage my mix-bus as well?
Yes, but no need to gain stage too quiet, so just make sure not to peak your Mis Bus. On my side, I don't go over -3 dbfs on peaks, so I keep some headroom for mastering
@@mixdownonline Ok. Thank you so much for your respond. :D
How about some uad analoque emulations that are optimized at different levels from lets say -18 to about -12 dbfs?
That's exactly the dbfs range I aim. VU metering is an average level, and dbfs a peak level metering. So -18 to about -12 dbfs for gain staging is good to follow.
Excellent video Chris! Best I've seen on gain staging!!! 🎶🎹🎶🎸
Wow, thanks!
@@mixdownonline More like THANK YOU my brother! 🎶🎹🎶🎸
Best Gain Staging video on the internet
Wow! Thanks a lot!
Like 100! well deserved my friend!
Thank you! Cheers!
Very interesting thank you 🙏🙏
My pleasure
My question is, when a track is in a fader, and running hot, there's the gain stage knobs right there. But if you have 2 or 3 tracks like this, and you pout them in a group, then the group gets hot. We'll you can hit that button again and everything seems fine. But what about putting a compressor on one? Or 2 - 3 other plugs...do you gain stage using the slider? Or the button that inside? And do you have any merch? I would love to have your logo on a hat, or shirt, or even a coffee mug. Mixdown brother!!!!
I think you answered my problem with gain staging, . Which just leaves me with "Make your mech happen!!"
Glad the video answered your questions :-) Thanks for your support, but I don't have available merch to sell at the moment, but I'm working on making this possible. Hang on!
Very good video about gain staging, I totally can agree upon 😊 Now hope that the comments will be respectful because for some people gain staging can be a very controversial topic. People who think gain staging doesn’t matter can be aggressively opinionated about it. For some people the topic can become a matter of life or death 😂
Lol, I know, some topics can get some people crazy LoL! But 99.5% of comments I usually receive are respectful, so that's good :-) Thanks for watching, my friend!
@@mixdownonline Ah well, I just came by to check if you did proper gain staging and you passed the test imo 😅😂🤣
THANKS!!!!!!❤
You're welcome!
The video I needed. Thanks!
Glad I could help!
Are you serious that you let that whatsapp sound leak in??? Otherwise that was a good video...
Since Cbase 12 the whole thing is that any controller can be the best controller... Like you can reprogram the buttons of any keyboard or controller how ever you like in Cubase, like you don't have to buy a special "Cubase controller" ... I'm using my M audio 32 air to do everything I need
Still using my CC121 and love it. Until it doesn't respond anymore I'll keep it going.
Can you have god particle running into this ?
Just a thought but would another option be to just lower the send rather than the return channel the same amount of decibels as the drum group? 🥁
Funny how so many people get meticulous about gain compensation and converters, but we don't ever see a finished mix from them. Meanwhile, Andrew Schepps mixes mostly in cheap Sony headphones. 😂
Way to many moving parts. Genius!
HOw do I start? You are way ahead of me. does not help. where to get beginner advice?
how do you select a drum kit?
I've been seeing videos like these recently. Sounds like a great tool. I use an MX master 3 mouse and love it. tons of programmable buttons with a secondary scroll. And as for movement, I just don't move the mouse around that much to affect my wrist or for it to be an issue with space. I'm open to trying new tools.
attention!! delivery time one year!!!
how do you show your master fader on the bottom right there? i cant seem to add one or find it
Wow amazing! 😮
What is the song called its very catchy arrangment
Yes sr!!!!!!!!
Thanks Chris, what does your vocal chain look like?
Oversampling is a thick one 😅 I'd argue on this one for DnB, Dubstep, Hardstyle... High distortion genres it's a convenient to have ^^
19:20 yup... It's fun... 😅
"air" is short for: "out of the mix" 😆😆
Hello, I would like to ask you, I work with Cubase, and every time I save a project backup, (I save it on a disk separate from the operating system)(I work on win 10) my local disk c, disk where I have the operating system and cubase, my c drive is filling up more and more, could you tell me why that happens to me? I don't understand it, because I am not saving the projects on the c drive. I would like to know your opinion. thank you so much.
In the case of Native Instruments, can't you just download from Native Access straight to the new computer ?
I really enjoyed this video. I wish every audio company out there would ask you to review their products. This was done very, very well. Real world application. Just love it. Thank you for posting!
How do you click ans drag something on the trackball?
I like the Arc with the hardware box, that you theoretically can use for a seperate system and run the software in eg Cubase. I like the SoundID for its combined speaker and Headphone solution. Btw. Even you said you don't use calibration for Headphones. With your stand on the differences between the 2 systems, which i agree with. Unless we have very expensive equipment I doubt most of us can hear a big difference. I've haught on purchasing SoundID, but regards to the custom headphones profile you can get at extra cost, sending in your headphones and let Sonarworks measure it in detail, wonder If that is worth it .. doubt many would be able to hear the diff. between the custom measurement and the "General" profile SoundID gives you if you have one of the popular headphones they support
I just use two vocal tracks. A bit of delay and slight reverb. Light slap.
It's a really true sounding channel strip. I also want one "next to me".
Nice!
Thanks!
Awesome i want a plugin version😂
That would be cool!
I have question. Do you need to first adjust eq, wideness and the other options before you turn the loudness knob up ? In short, do you need a specific workflow with adjusting the sound before you push the loudness button ? Thanks
👌 super explanation Chris your a star
I love spl, both for their build quality, beautiful analogue sound and aesthetics. I have an SPL crimson and it's built like a tank, I can't bring my self to let go of it even though I want to go rack mount.
Yes, the SPL gear built is pretty solid
Great gear and all but that kind of stuff is just so wildly overpriced
Yeah awesome if you have a spare 4K lying around! 😒
It's actually 2.3K usd, but yes, not for all budgets
Not in Australia! 😢
@@tibhorvath You're like us in Canada 😕
and great sense of humour, and excellent voice, by the way,,,, ;-)
I agree, very good voice considering that I don’t like 90% of most vocalists out there 😅
