    What is the exact balance then? Kicks snares vs rest of the mix

    • @beattweaks
      @beattweaks 5 місяців тому

      When you're first balancing your sounds, try and just do it by ear. Make sure nothing is noticeably louder than anything else, you should be able to hear everything clearly. Then when checking the spectrum analyzer, check to see the high frequencies are not much higher than the lowe frequencies. If you've done both of those steps, but still find that your limiter can't get to the loudness you want, then you have some big peaks you need to take care of in your mix, usually form the drums or other percussive sounds.

    This is incorrect... Expanders don't add gain to the peaks, they reduce gain when the signal falls below a threshold which increases the dynamic range. Using. It. Like this will make the rest of the track pump... As you can hear

    • @beattweaks
      @beattweaks 3 роки тому

      An expander makes quiet things quieter and loud things louder, therefore increasing the dynamic range. So by definition the peaks are emphasized, depending on the settings you use of course. The pumping caused by this is a separate issue and can be desirable or undesirable based on personal preference. Also you're talking about downward expansion, this is upward expansion. Unless I'm missing something, please let me know I could be wrong.

      using an expander on a mixdown is a lost cause mate - there is now way, one way or the other that you will add dynamics without changing something else - you have to send that back - full stop. If it was a single track (you got sent the single tracks and you had the chance to work with them then fine.. you could 'expand the drum bus' to add dynamics but to try to use an expander on a full mix is a lost cause mate - ya just don't - you'll spoil the mix - best you can do is, imho - take whatever peaks are left and add a touch of comp and limit it to get the level up to the 'standard' - but I wouldn't bother myself...

Any processing you do on a full mix will probably have some unwanted effect but the point of this video was more about creativity and exploring new avenues of processing and less about telling people to use this technique. Also sometimes you don't have the option to send a mixdown back, I've had that happen quite a few times.

    I don't get that volume decrease that you get when activating the distortion effect and also, shouldn't adding additional harmonics and saturation increase the volume?? I can't really figure out how distortion and volume loss are related, it's like a compressor, bringing all frequencies up to the threshold.

    • @beattweaks
      @beattweaks 4 роки тому

      Ok i'll try to simplify this for you as much as I can. Imagine volume like a wall. The higher you go up a wall, the closer you get to the ceiling. That ceiling is the maximum volume you can reach. It's called absolute 0. When you add distortion to a sound, what you're doing is pushing it into the ceiling, and only when you reach that ceiling will you start to actually distort the sound. So up to a point, all you're doing is adding volume. Once you reach the ceiling, you'll start adding harmonics. But then after you've added harmonics, the sound is just really loud, so you want to bring the volume back down. Then what you end up with is the new distorted sound, but at the same volume as the undistorted sound, and with less transients and dynamic range (aka it's "louder") Does that make more sense now? If not plz ask me more questions.

      Hey Damian, I guess that would depend. For example if you like to use a lot of loops and samples, a lot of those loops and samples have low frequencies in their reverbs and delays, so you might want to use mid/side EQ to clean up the low frequencies from the sides, and then EQ the mids separately. Does that make a little more sense?
