  • @codycreepcore
    @codycreepcore Місяць тому +5

    I haven't finished the video yet, but I've always thought of glue as the frequency relationship between each element in a mix. Obviously you want some space for each instrument in the mix, but if it's too vast a space then things don't sound glued. If the brightness of a guitar is dull in comparison to super bright drum overheads, then it won't sound glued, but if you bring those brightness elements slightly closer in balance then things start sounding blended to me.
    EDIT: finishing the video and thank you for showing the the drums vs guitar brightness

      Agreed! I've been working at this for years now. They always say in videos that this sounds better than that. If I close my eyes and listen to the A/B comparison I can't tell the difference at all unless it's an extreme example. I have always wondered if this a UA-cam thing or a me thing? I have heard that UA-cam compresses videos when you upload them. Perhaps a myth? Who knows.

    • @CarlosCastillogearhead
      @CarlosCastillogearhead Місяць тому +5

      Set your compression settings and then take threshold really really far so you can hear in an extreme case what the compressor is doing. The better it sounds as an extreme example the better it will sound dialed back. Also I like to use a waveform analyzer so I can see exactly what’s happening.

    • @ms4365

      @MrMockigton Місяць тому +4

      most mix decisions make no difference at all. when you are not able to hear the difference, then there is no use in doing the technique. do the steps that take the bulk of work out of your way. 99% of mixing is EDITING, setting proper volumes and using eq/compression. that only applies when you have decent sources, of course. if you mix is not at least "not terrible" without any effects - start from scratch

    What's up with modern metal burying the vocals? When he turned them up, I didn't think "Those vocals are too loud." I thought, "Hey, the vocals are finally being treated like the most important element." I swear, every mix I hear on this channel, I find the vocals to be at least 6 db too quiet. I certainly don't feel that way when I listen to '80s and '90s thrash.

      In some modern genres of Metal (at least the more underground styles I tend to work on) the vocals aren't the most important element of the mix. They sometimes are in there as another "instrument". I could see how in more modern mainstream metal you would want the vocals upfront.

  • @doctortubes1
    @doctortubes1 Місяць тому +5

    Let me say: the real gluing effect is due to the "cross-ducking effect" when multiple instrument are playing above the threshold. No magic. No mistery. Only a subtle up and down in volume of every instrument in the mix. Low threshold ,Low ratio (2:1) mid-fast attack and release.

    Hi! I understand, we see and hear distortion and too much gain reduction when the balance is bad, but you should show us how you work with the volume fader and eq, and the compressor on the bus send should be a reference point, right? Explain how we can notice, maybe because there is too much gain reduction on the compressor or we hear distortion, so how to orient ourselves accordingly. Actually how to work with the volume fader and eq directly into the compressor to achieve balance of the mix. This seems a bit confusing. You showed just how the compressor reacts to a bad balance, that's how I experience it.

    Honestly speaking, I'm not great at mixing or anything, but none of the volume changes or frequency changes made any 'significant' impact to the mix pre bus compression and all of them sound good and glued enough. I wouldn't even notice the difference and happily listen to any of the 'volume imbalanced' and 'frequency imbalanced' versions because they still sound COHESIVE. The lacking for most people is going to that point of sound COHESIVE so that finishing touches can be applied to personal taste, but the song remains the same. I understand that a lot of it depends on the arrangement, but yeah, lemme know if you can help me reach the point before you start putting bus comp.

  • @NathanArhur
    @NathanArhur Місяць тому

    So then follow up question, what if you get the mix to a very balanced state and it feels glued and big and punchy and whatever, then your client asks for things to radically change in a way you feel will throw off the mix? Personally, I've had to reason with clients before and tell them that I don't think their edit is a good idea, but even if we reach. common ground and I'm giving them +1db of vocals instead of +3 like they wanted,, now the mix sounds less glued to me. Is the customer always right? Do I just say "screw 'em, I'm not changing it"?

      That's not Jordan and Roelof's philosophy - in fact just the previous video was him talking about this exact thing IIRC. Their idea is: get it good as early in the process as possible. Record the best basic tracks - it should already sound like a record if the balance is right. Then edit it tightly. Now it sounds like about 50%-75% of a pro record (I know this because I managed it with one of their multitracks, and I'm a shit mixer). Then you mix statically, then you mix dynamically - adding automation (and sometimes add some production if it needs some more). And if you do all that with your ears, you'll probably end up making good-sounding records pretty fast.

    This whole concept of putting glue on your mix I personally think is a bad idea. I feel this is one of the things that killed rock music; you guys are basically making your track sound like am radio. He said without the glue it sounds like a bunch of instruments in a room, well that's the way its supposed to sound. just My opinion; peace!

    I think it's more about taming transients in order to achieve a louder master, cause the limiter can get hit harder without sounding too shitty. Some dinosaurs called it "top end limiting" I guess. Top end meaning the top of the peaks, not the frequencies. Today everyone says "glue". Correct me if I'm wrong! 🫶

    I think there’s not much that can be done to make this track sounds better because everything is already muffled over compressed and missing brightness. Watching this video is a pure waste of time.

    The whole world uses Bus Compressor and writes hits, and you say it's wrong?? Seriously??

      No, he said that eq and volume balance is more responsible for the "glue" than a 2Bus Comp is. I think of the 2Bus Comp more as tone, than glue anyways.
