This is so fundamental... I figured why my tracks sounded kind of muddy or lacky of punchiness, started to search why; some person told me it wasn't related to the EQ, but to this, which I had found by investigating. So now I'm lacking of mids. I do love doing tranceish sounds, which are usually very wide and stereo, and now I see what I was doing "wrong". I was putting too much stuff in the sides, the kick was only in the mid with a bass and that didn't sound glued.
one thing i would add though for the people reading is that these corrections are being done in Solo mostly to show how midside affects audio, however in your production always try and do processing while the mix is playing so you do changes according to the context of the mix not to make the solo audio sound better, since it might not fit with your mix.
OMG. The difference is very obvious... I have trouble wrapping my mind around this... But I need to input this in my mixes ! THNX! "The producing rabbithole deepens again" When i can spare the money i go for the Course box, I love this so much, im smiling during this tutorial, Challenging my mind is something i always enjoyed haha
That was the best explanation of Mid-Side that I have come across and at some point I may well do one of your courses but it's just after Christmas, which reminds me....Happy New Year Mix Elite Peeps! Have a good one! ;D
Please i have a suggestion. I would love to have a detailed video on how to create hip hop / 808 drums. I mean how to use equalizers on the drums , to have a clean sound, and professional. ✌😊 thank you
No f way, just today I thought about Mid/Side Eq in Stock FL becaue, I know about it, but I was to lazy to download something, and then your Video is popping up, thats so dope
This video has changed my life. Lol, seriously tho thank you for this! buy far the most useful knowledge on mixing. You made mid/side eq easy to understand. The before and after of my tracks...wow tks again.
I've tried this technique before a long time ago, used to do it for years. You'd be better off getting Fab Filter Pro Q 3 for this honestly. Way better results.
😂😂😂.. I swear everytime I try using stereo shaper to try to understand it and get familiar with it.. in a couple of minutes I just replace it with d stereo enhancer, or a 3rd party stereo imager.. now I know I'm not alone 😅
Hey, I Make One Mix And After Some Time When I Opened My Project again, The All effects Are Missing from The Each and Every Mixer Track, What Should I Do! plz Help Bro😑
@@exeza By the way, you can also mid/side EQ your synths or instruments too, as well, applying effects to each. For example, it's commonly used to put reverb on the sides instead of in the mid, while other effects are used to be used with the mids and not with the sides. Regarding EQ, you will like to have the low end of frequencies parts in the mid, and the high end of them in the sides. So bass need to be put in the mids regarding the stereo field. Snares too, even thoug they are crispy or more into the 500 Hz domain, they remain at the mids. It's also related to how punchier you want your mix. If the snare or kick is in the sides kind like you won't hear them as much and impactful if they're in the sides. Yet the snare can be in both; the body of the snare in the mid, the crispier sound if it at the sides.
im having an issue on my mid side eq'ing and the side eq only seems to work when a reverb plugin is on. even when I have channel rack completely bare, I can't get the side eq to work unless there is a reverb plug in. I have no idea what I am doing help.
What if you only have fruity Fire Edition... And you can't use Patcher... 🤔.. I know I should get all plug-in edition.. prices is a little steep at the moment.. It'd be really cool if you did a video on doing advanced things with small additions...
for some reason the histogram and heatmap arent visible in my side eq but when I change the graph it definitely works, anyone know why that might happening? yes i have made sure they are enabled
Brother, I don't hear any difference in sound during your demonstrations. Please help. I know Mid/Side eq'ing is a fundamental tool and works well, but for some reason I just can't hear any difference. UA-cam compression? Untrained ears? Bad audio equipment? I have studio monitors and headphones, so I doubt it's gear.
Oh wow, I’m such an idiot. For the longest time I used Maximus to make the low end mono. Sometimes this would make phase issues. This is way better, I think.
Nah, the phase issues only occurred due to the nature of the filters separating the bands in Maximus and not necessarily due to how the stereo separation knob works in there. Similar phase issues can occur using Mid-Side EQ, unless you use linear phase EQ's, but you also have the option of using linear phase filters to separate the bands in Maximus.

Personally I use the Ozone mid-side EQ, it's amazing, but with this video now I have a better understanding of the concept, nice job as always ;)
Max Is My Life Saver In Music Production🤗
This Really Breaks Down Mid/Side EQ, To A Degree That It’s FAR MORE UNDERSTANDABLE!!!
Going To Apply This Using Patcher.
Thank You Good Sir!!!
I Can't Believe the Quality of your Content. One stop shop. Once I need more I'll definetly check the courses out!
mid-side is another term for sum-difference which is used in lots of stuff. What's in common, and what's not in common.
MAX , YOU ARE LEGIT. THANK YOU FOR SHARING SO MUCH VALUABLE INFORMATION
I never used Mid-side EQ... And now I am struggling with my 114 channels project... I think, this will change my life :D Thanks!

Thank you for the video!
Where should I put MID/SIDE EQ in a chain? I mean before or after common EQ, Reverb etc.
in the master, under everything you have.
@@Overxpossed thank you for your answer!

Can you please tell me where to find the song that starts playing at 0:16 ? The piano? PLEASS
정말 훌륭한 설명입니다.😜
Thanks brother
Good day max hopefully you doing well
Can you apply Mid-side eq on all of your Busses(Drum Buss,pluck buss, etc)??
How can I apply an EQ on the right only or only left
Would you normally throw mid side on the master just in general? Even if it’s only minor changes like you said
Yeah ☺️
THANK MAX YOU ARE TRUE GURU
Is the low-cut in the sides replacable with making all the low frquencies(like..below 250Hz)mono with a maximus on the master track?
im having an issue on my mid side eq'ing and the side eq only seems to work when a reverb plugin is on. even when I have channel rack completely bare, I can't get the side eq to work unless there is a reverb plug in. I have no idea what I am doing help.
same things happening to me idk wtf is happening
My Brain hurts
😂
When i use midside EQ i only have signal on mid ! there is no signal in side channel (EQ) i hear just Reverb ! can you please explain me why !
What if you only have fruity Fire Edition...
And you can't use Patcher...
