Mastering Should Only Be The Final 1%
Переглядів 9562 місяці тому
I'm always skeptical when people say "you should only compress 1dB at the master", or "anything more than 2dB of EQ is too much at the master". How do they know? They've not even heard the track I'm mastering. Here's a look at why, whilst that may be true in some instances, I'm willing to bet it's probably not true for the track YOU'RE currently mastering... ✅BECOME A MEMBER OF THIS CHANNEL FOR...

Sontronics Aria: The Ultimate Vocal Microphone Test & Review
Very helpful stuff!
freakin brilliant!
I feel relieved. .It always felt sacrilegious. Tomorrow my new life begins - As someone who doesn_t feel paranoid anymore when using the built in gain control in channel EQ.
Well... I have to say, there is actually a difference. Your voice is perfect for this comparison. The Newman sounds brighter, more vivid. It's just very expensive, which is why we have to love Shure
Cool video, thanks!
Thank you very much for this.
Somebody needs an interface update…🙊
I didn’t bother with the sampler, I just recorded it straight onto audio, and then exported it into my loops!
Maybe easy to solve: Put the samples on different notes, and trigger them with looped midi notes. Once I had to set up clicktrack for our drummer going like 1 2 3 4, 2 2 3 4, 3 2 3 4, 4 2 3 4, and that was the way to get it done. Cheers!
all together was hilarious😂. great video Sam
Just what I’ve been looking for!
More nonsense
Pointless bollocks
😀 Don’t hold back, tell us what you REALLY think.
@ you’re going about it all wrong
@@steveshadforth8792 Reveal the answer, please.
When they all played at the same time, it sounded great too !
Sample it!
I'm away from my computer, but is there a "retrigger" function you can use to make it always start from the beginning ?

I purchased a yearly subscription, but after paying, I was informed that I’d have to wait an entire month before receiving my credits. Meanwhile, they’re charging me for a month without providing any service.

Great video, straight to the point. Thanks!
Thank you for the video-it was a good one. I was wondering if you noticed any effect on CPU usage when multiple screens are open at the same time
cheers mate
BIG BIG LETTERS FOR THOSE WHO READ THE COMMENTS FIRST EASYUS is NOT FREE. THEY DON'T LET YOU DO ANTHING! You're Welcome!
It seems that since I uploaded this video, EaseUS have changed their terms and have taken the free option away. I can only apologise, I never intended to mislead viewers, this is entirely their doing, as the service was free 1x per day when I created the video.
@@SamLoose It's OK.
I’ve had mine for about 2 weeks. EH
Really helped me thanks man. More videos like this please!
Luv it!!
Thank you!!!
Not free, waste of time
THANK YOU so much. My latency problem its been solved! Thanks!
Sounds muffled
Life saver!
Mureka is crap. It doesn't matter what prompts you enter into the style. It takes no notice of them and makes up something of it's own.
I just use it to create instrumentals of different genres to learn the production style and use the full song stems to practice mixing and mastering when bored😂
THANK YOU for this!!
Absolutely great explanation!! Thx
With all due respect, at this point the original drums barely exist anymore. We’re basically just listening to a low quality room mic with samples being triggered over it. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_of_Theseus
I think that’s exactly the point. Previously you only had the bad room mic, now you have the room mic plus some samples that sound better, but more importantly it’s still the original playing, but a much more listenable version of it.
‘mon the speedhorn. respect.
Does this work with ADAT connections?
Absolutely.
nice fat load in the bottom end, massive girth. lovely
Wow, what a difference!! Awesome.
🥵🔥🔥🔥
holy shit I can record in 32 sweeeeeeeeeet
Great video! For me both sound fine. With some correct processing, mix and a great song; nobody would ever really know the difference.
Great overview, thing that fixes it for me was the “low latency mode” cap, I must be using many plugins as the 5th, 6th instrument tracks are where the delay gets noticeable and off-putting
now I wonder why the folder stack still exists.
wow, thank you so much! you're a saviour !
Thanks! It worked just like you said! Thanks man. Cheers and regards from Stratford, Ontario, Canada. 😎✌🎸
Happy to have helped 👌
Vocaflex is OK, but a permanent license for SoundID Voice AI sounds better with less artifacts, and its half the price!
You can’t copy other voices…
How are you seeing the sample rate when hovering over the plugin?
Great vid!!!
