    I think you're one of the best channels. I'm more of an indie rock/indie pop artist and your tutorials really are helpful regardless. It's not specific to genre, it's about just music and processes. I love all these videos

      100% I was about to say that irrespective of genre (and I'm not a huge EDM fan although have no objections to it) Big Z just _is_ the greatest production tutorial video maker out there.

    That A Button next to the bypass button on pro q is an auto gain button, automatically adding or reducing gain based on adjustments

    What's Up Z? Use the "A" button on the down right to activate auto gain option instead of adding make up manually, it's faster and more accurate.

    Your channel is a veritable trove of information in regard to production without the complexities involved. Subbed about a week ago and have already begun both recommending it to a select few producers and engineers and testing out your methods too which are Ace. Well done on the no BS channel amongst so many channels that are full of it. Look forward to seeing your future work 👍👍👍

    5:32 you can try auto gain match A symbol in pro Q3 , maybe turn on natural phase depending on what u like👍🏻.
    Btw Nice tutorial :)

    • @JetLagBeat
      @JetLagBeat 3 роки тому +4

      Unfortunately, the autogain on Pro Q3 always adds too much gain so it's still too hard to compare. Same happens with the Pro C2. It would be incredible if these became more accurate in the next updates!

    @kakimaki8659 2 роки тому

    about make up gain: i think the uploader didnt explain it well, so here's my tip: put on youlean (or any other plugin like that) on the track and check the volume on the plugin with and without eq. Another tip: always check peak for eqing if they are really pointy, but be careful, because sometimes they actually add a lot to the sound's carachter so you should not cut those out in that case.

    Thanks Sir! Once again super clear, super helpful. Btw, I have been struggling to use the "auto-level compensation" button of the Q3 and I see that you don't use it neither. Any particular reason? I had the feeling that I was losing some dynamics using it but I think it's placebo effect, maybe it's just not precise enough.

    Isn't it more natural to cut frequencies and boost the gain than boosting with the EQ? 🤔 Maybe today's EQs are so much better but I recall people talking about artifacts getting added while boosting.

    hey, I've a little bit of a complicated question. How do you make your music sound as loud as tracks on spotify for instance? When I for instance export my track and compare it to songs on spotify it just sounds like my track is -10 db lower. What is the trick behind it? I do EQ, I mix the levels, I add a limiter, but what do you need to do in order to make it sound as if it was the same level? I really don't understand it. I just don't get it.

    • @trevoroaks425
      @trevoroaks425 3 роки тому

      Saturation. Tape gets you a few more db if perceived loudness. Also subtractive EQ with compression will create more room. More room = more perceived loudness.

      @BillyBoi911 Рік тому

      Case could be made that he should be using linear phase eq when he’s using any steep curves or dips/boosts. But linear phase does add latency so maybe that’s why he doesn’t.
