    Recently, my mix bus has been focused on transparent, clean volume along with the typical “glue” and eq stuff…my FAVORITE chain at the moment is:
    Pro-c2, low ratio using the “mastering” algorithm and as much oversampling as I can afford (this occasionally gets swapped with CLA mixdown) for the initial, gentle “this all belongs together” vibe.
    Pro-q3 on linear phase
    Slate VTM (at this point I start adding a few db to the output)
    Pro-l2 using whatever algorithm feels appropriate…oversampled to whatever extent I can afford
    Slate VMC for the final leveling
    Those plugins are all so high quality and so sonically faithful, I’ve found that stacking them as such gives me my best bass/treble retention with the absolute bare minimum in processing artifacts. Clean volume is really important to me. If you’re hovering around -9 RMS but it sounds totally pummeled, you’ve wasted all your time and energy.

    At what point is Dave putting these on the Master Bus. Does he add the plugins after he has channel stripped all the tracks. Or for example, add the plugins to the Master Buss after the Drums and Bass and mix into them? Cheers!

    Limitless is great but I've found as a mixer that when you need to back off the threshold for mastering the mix changes too much. Better suited for mastering imo.

    My guess is its hearing loss. You often think of first losing the ability to hear top frequencies but really its just whichever ones your ears fatigue from the most. So my guess is your ears are either hyper fatigued from 2.5K to 5K or you possibly your experiencing hearing loss in or around those frequencies. I guess the only other thing I could think of is a problem with your monitors?

  • @delaratchet8135
    @delaratchet8135 5 років тому +1

    The manual for standard clip says if you have the ceiling after to not use a limiter after but I see you do here. Can anyone elaborate more on standard clip and how it work?

    • @briancase6180
      @briancase6180 3 роки тому +2

      The thought is that the ceiling will catch any ISPs, so a limiter would either do nothing or limit a whole lot of already clipped peaks (further washing them out). In fact, many mixing/mastering engineers will use only a clipper depending on the program material. But, it really depends on your material and how much clipping the clipper has done. As Dave said so correctly: it's a bit of art, I think.

    certain plug in have an over all tone to em by default , also sliding your plug in up or down on your slots dose something likE able or diff, to the over all sound.

    Why a song this bad needs big $$$ to be payed for ? First of all, it should be a good song to send it to Dave Pensado. Simpler way to mix this track: delete. Anything you do to it will not make it better- its an ugly experience for human hearing. ( but good for a horror film )
