    These are absolutely the most important lessons and exercises anyone in the audio processing and creating field can study and learn. Significant ear training paired with a basic simple EQ module or plugin will far outweigh any gear collection; If you're in the tracking world the same can be said for this ear training and simple microphone placement. I love this style of content, and I will always value anyone who takes the time to create and upload these kind of gems.

      I completely agree, MAN Network! The ability to use any EQ effectively is much more powerful than having a very expensive EQ that you cannot use effectively. Thanks for watching!

    Cool way of distinguishing between frequencies with “E”, “I” “Oo”, etc. sounds. Sibilance and inner groove distortion are unfortunately issues certain vinyl records have. Thanks

    Literally the best piece of information I've learned in my career! Always had the opinion that you can't audibly fix what you can't hear, (ie. wanting to fix the low end of a mix but can't hear what's happening there) so I always went for newer and better audio systems; often adding a new speaker here or there. But this my friend, this is the true lesson to hearing what's where. Thanks!!!

    Really great video! I’ve never really thought about correlating the frequencies with vowel sounds - it makes so much sense - thank you for pointing this out. And yes, my technique has been to boost frequencies then cut what I don’t want - but your point that any frequency sounds bad if you bump it up too much means I’ve probably been making unnecessary changes. So thank you again - I’ll pass this video on!

I used a Spectral Graph app (whilst may not be fully accurate). I modified my EQ using your process and my sound system sounds amazing. Thank you!!!

    Wow nice one, this will be super helpful!
    Another trick I learned was to import 2 copies of a track into a daw and use phase inversion so they cancel each other out.
    Nothing will then be audible
    Then put an eq on one of them and anything you boost will suddenly sound (just within those frequencies boosted)
    A kind of soloing of frequencies of a song

    I use airpods when casually listening to music, and as I'm familiar with them I use them for a majority of roughing in my mixes. I then switch to my krk monitors for finalising the mix, mainly to get a better representation of bass and above 16k. And I get pretty good mixes. It doesn't really matter what you rough your mix on, as long as you're familiar. Just finalise on some honest speakers

    • @ToastedFlowers
      @ToastedFlowers 2 роки тому

      You have to adjust for the muddy base krk produces. And AirPods.
      If you can get flat monitors locally for a decent price I would pick them up. More reference points will give you a clearer representation of your values and mix.
