YES! Super simple and quick.
Glad you like it!
Great video. Just switched back to this method from having the annoying Marquee Tool zones checked. However, for some reason, my Join tool was assigned to "G" had to go in and edit the key assignment
Glad it helped
I almost never have to change tools in Reaper either, thats one of the reasons I like it. Even tho I own Bitwig, Studio One, Ableton light, and briefly owned Cubase...I've always come back to Reaper mainly because of the ease of navigation & editing, because thats where the majority of time is spent. I've wanted to try Logic for quite a while but never could because I was on pc. But now that I'm running a MacBook for production I'm tempted to give it a go. But I'm hesitant to spend the money on it because I've already wasted so much on other DAWs yet always returning to Reaper lol
Great idea!
Great tutorial series man! Nice work. This song is VERY smooth, by the way.
Thank you. I am working on another series!
True, very 🆒️ feature, but a dbx on the stereo out wouldn't maximize that same results?! I don't know. Namastè.
This solution won't work if you have recorded volume automation on any of the tracks. The way to overcome it is with proper gain staging. You have control over gain during recording > clip gain > gain in plugins > channel faders > buses. If you don't want to change clip gain, simply use the Gain plugin to raise volume. In a perfect world, you would want all the channel faders relatively close to the 0 mark as you have more resolution (it doesn't change the sound, but the faders are not as sensitive to movement) around there.
This is true. This tips like most of my tips are aimed at newcomers, and many of them are not using automation quite yet. Additionally it is inspired by the many times I have been hired to mix something and the client has all or most of their faders turned all the way up and is asking me how to make things louder. If you’ve already recorded, this tip is an important part of the gain staging process. Others have pointed out you can do this via plugins which is also true and another great tip. I believe I’ve done a video on that.
Strange advice for a stranger case.
Unfortunately I have found it’s not that uncommon of a case…clients often have their mixes/faders totally out of whack when they land on my desk.
I always limit my mixes at -4db so that when I master it up to 0db it has breathing room it will be full and not clipped trash. Plus you'll have space to move up and down.
I actually go all the way to -10 for the pre-master mix. Headroom is headroom. Kinda doesn’t matter, more about how much GR happening before mastering.
Bc of the logarithmic nature of faders they are designed to operate around 0, please everyone just be good and use a plugin or set the input gain correctly
This is ideal😂. The tip is mainly about an inexperienced mixer that has painted themselves into a corner.
Or put a limiter on it?
Just do some proper gain staging and all is fine.
To add, I really wouldn't do what you showed myself, you are just putting yourself in an awkward space for mixing. Look at the track you want to fix and fix the problem, don't introduce new things to fix for 20 other tracks.
No new problems. Essentially entire mix is brought down in order to properly gain stage one or more faders that an inexperienced mixer may have gone too far on!
Go to Window -> Show Region Inspactor Float, select the track/region you need to bump up or down (if the input gain is so crazy you have to bring the fader that far down), and click-drag on the "Gain" in that window. It's kinda sloppy take on Clip Gain in Pro Tools, or the built in one in Reaper, but it can help you avoid something like this.
Actually there is a much tighter way of doing this same thing that isn’t sloppy at all. You can use the “Gain” tool with the Marquee tool and turn portions of regions up or down very easily and quickly. I’ve done several videos covering this.
If you have this problem your mix is bad ..
Most likely 😂
not your mix per se, more so your recording is bad
Thanks! Clarified my questions
Thanks for watching!
Soooo dope! Can’t wait to play around with this!
It's good that you added subtitles to your video so that people who don't speak English can understand more easily, thank you for your video
