My pleasure. I remember mixing 2 tracks for one of my musical projects back in about 1991. Neil Young had played guitar and sang on our album.......I had to go through his guitar solos and create a cohesive solo (he just started recording, totally unrehearsed, so there were loads of mistakes) Damn, when I think how quick it would have been if I'd had ProTools, etc., instead of having to sync 2 X 2" tape machines together to get the sections in the order I wanted........things were really different in those days, I can tell you. ....When it comes to 'affordable/home recording' we truly live in amazing times.
True, and not just before, ....but it never hurts to reference again during a mix session, if there's something you're really trying to keep in sync with (even previous offerings by the same artist, etc.).......
This is tutorials has to be. A simple example that almost everyone can understand and then showing how this appears in the actual mix. Top content as always!
3:41 - that's right, many ppl think that way, but honestly, there is no magic wand in mastering music (I run Mastering Studio in London for over 10 years btw), if the mix is poor- the master won't help it, simple as that, mastering is not about correcting bad mixes or/and bad recordings/production. Mixing is for correcting bad mixes:). Anyway, I absolutely agree on your point - the creation/production stage is crucial, choosing a bad kick will ruin your song.
Help me understand what mastering is for then. If we’re saying that ideally the mastering engineer has no job, then … I interpret that to mean the mastering engineer’s job IS to try to fix what should have been done well initially but wasn’t. If not, what IS the purpose of the mastering process? I don’t think this would seem strange to me if we didn’t consider mixing and mastering two different jobs. Thanks Edit: it sounds like “mastering” is just a quality check by another set of ears that puts on finishing touches. If that’s the case, I still don’t understand why that would be a different specialty than mixing. Pardon my ignorance on the subject-want to understand.
Hello, my name is Still, I’m an aspiring musician, I’d get straight to the point . Can I intern at your London studio ? I’ve been mixing for a while now, I’ve gotten better but I can tell I need to witness professionals work before I get to where I need to be.
Dealing with transients artfully is really where “loudness” and “punch” dance. Lots of dynamic range in the crest factor will limit the perceived overall loudness by gobbling your headroom with spikes, but keeping *some* transient intact adds punch and impact. It’s a balancing act. Training your ear for transient response is just as important as frequency response. Great video!
This is the way to win the Loudness War. Keeping your track with enough transients to keep it punchy, and squashed enough to be competitive in the music industry. It is an art, as you well said
Just finished your electronic music course! Excited to start your techno course next! I've learned more on your channel than in my four years in college for music. I want to thank you deeply for giving me a solid framework to fall back on and for explaining concepts that used to confuse me so well. I'm finally finishing tracks and starting to feel more confident. I can't thank you enough!!
For some reason, at the half of this video i understood what i have been doing wrong so much time ago, now i can mix with total confidence, this is something that some " smoke sellers" will never explain for free, thank you very much.
Good video and well explained about transients and how they affect loudness. The most important aspect of loud mixes isn’t addressed. But that is very common and not often talked about. Nice presentation!
@@jimmypierson1980 Hi Jimmy. The answer is masking. In my opinion dealing with masking is the most important aspect to manage in a mix to have clean and loud mixes. 👍🏻 so good monitoring is important to address this.
When I started, I was deathly afraid of using limiters. Now, I use them in mixes all the time. It helps so much with dynamics, even when the limiter is doing light work and can’t really be heard.
You have a seemingly natural gift for explaination. This is my first time seeing your content, and I am subbing your channel simply based on your ability to explain things... very well. Thanks, man!
I mastered an instrumental today and everything you said lets me know headed in the right direction. I'm starting to understand what mastering is really
I'm working on a big silly metal song and this video couldn't have come at a more perfect time. Thanks for helping fill in some gaps on why my exports are coming out boneless!
0:58 THIS!! You have no idea how long it took me to realize tons of compression and heavy limiting isn’t necessary for a loud mix/master, and it has completely enhanced the quality of my mixes since.
As a self taught electronic music producers your videos are great. Simple yet effective, sums up what I've learned through years of trial and error in an easy to understand short video
Such a great summary. Looking back on my past songs/mixes, I would always, always, ALWAYS mix the drums (mostly the kick), WAY TOO LOUD compared to the rest of the music. And then would spend all this time with multiband limiters, clippers, loudness enhancers, etc to get it to sound like "finished music" - though something always sounded a bit 'off' when compared to other music I admired. Another thing was always way too much low-mid buildup. That stuff ends up eating up so much headroom, that again, I would turn to multiband compressors followed by multiband limiters, clippers, more limiting, to get things to "sound right". Just pure insanity. Amazing what skillful filtering and simple compression/saturation can do.
After a year of doing everything people told me to do on UA-cam regarding mastering and mixing for a loud mix and still not seeing results, this video actually told me what I was doing wrong all this time.
I really appreciate lessons I can apply the key points to in any Daw! Thanks for that game we played, was mind blowing. Reminded me of learning science in school when the teacher would do magic in front of you and explain it with science
This video is going to improve the quality of my first releases so much! thankyou. Helped make mixing make so much more sense and gave good end goal ideas.
This channel is a godsend. Thanks for this one! Another helpful tip I picked up one once was try avoid mixing a track at high volumes, you can comfortably mix everything more accurately at lower volumes. Having your track too loud when trying to mix it will throw you off balance, don’t forget bass travels, so the louder your track is. The less your actually hearing of critical parts. It’s best to listen to your track loud every so often when you stand up and walk around your room, If it sounds decent 4 meters away there is a good chance you’ve got a good mix, As opposed to sticking your head right next to the speakers, where you are getting a false image of the mix. Not sure if this is totally useless advice but it has helped me in recent years.
You explained this great. I didn’t even notice the left kick sample was hitting at the same level as the right until you pointed it out. Knowing dynamic range and using frequency analyzers will definitely be a game changer. Thanks for the video. I think when I get a transient shaper it will help sustain the higher frequencies too and add some body. For now though all I have is distortion, EQ, and compression. Great video.
Thanks for that.. I've been thinking about exactly this the last couple of days and then your vid pops up 💥 my stuff never sounds as loud as other tracks out there even after professional mastering.. will investigate 👍
Very useful! I am new to mixing and mastering, and all of what you said made perfect sense. Can’t wait to try out the helpful tips! Thanks for creating this video. Really well done. I will definitely check out your other videos! 😊
Excellent!! The dynamics and speed of attack correlate more to the quality of music; The average level correlates more to the loudness and density of music. Too much dynamic attack causes wimpy sound; Too much compression-limiting causes congestion, and not enough space between instruments, higher distortion, fatigue in listening.
I've been making beats for 20 years and i am only now starting to mix decently. Most people including myself just slammed everything, for years. Im still not happy with my own mix and mastering but its definitley way more listenable for me. Im so afraid of degrading and ruining my beats by making them too loud. In the 90s things were so much more reasonable
This is really interesting to me, as a massive fan of gatecrasher and early uk house, garage and techno, whenever I hear tracks being uploaded on here from for example 92’, I’m always in awe at how ahead of its time and well mixed everything sounds, I always assumed making music back in the 90’s would have been far more complex, simpler in ways, but then I came to realise anything made on analogue will generally sound fresher and better, then I developed a passion for acid techno produced on the old analogue gear.
@@Deleted11100 Analog or digital.... both are/sound great. I don't know why you brought that up? You'd be surprised how much was digital back in 92 :) samplers, digital synths.... Especially Roland synths with those cards and the EMU sampler modules holy shit :D

From a technical standpoint loudness is a measure of peak and rms power of a signal. Our ears are pretty non-linear. Making a good decision is not easy, as you can see with modern loudness normalization. Works mostly but sometimes a little off.

The rms meter on the second sound has higher value which for the ears means louder.Same peak value doesn't mean both sounds equally loud.The second sound is louder due to higher harmonic content due to distortion/saturation, lower crest factor and smaller dynamic range.Just my 3 cents for whoever is interested.All the best.
