In this video, I go step by step though the Ultimate Mixing Checklist in Cubase, though this process is the same for any DAW. This is the same mixing tips checklist we go through for every commercial project that leaves our studio. Learn about the top categories that can trip up most mixes and producers and ways to avoid them, and the top mixing techniques in Cubase that you can use in your own projects.

Another absolutely fantastic and professional video. Excellent advice that I will start implementing when possible. Thank you so much for your amazing work!
You're my new go-to Cubase UA-camr. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, and sharing it well!
Really great presentation of how to look at all aspects of creating music! I will be referring to this video over and over in the future. This is my new guide post!!!
Thank you very much for this information. Will double back and definitely check out your other videos. Thanks again.
Hi Steve, many thanks for this. Can't wait to have a look at it over the weekend. : ) Kind regards, Darren (Wales, UK)
This is a really great guide. Thanks 👍
Wow!! Great video - SO helpful....so glad I came across this and your channel. Now subscribed. Many thanks....
Very helpful, thanks!
This is one of the best beginners video I’ve seen. Congrats. Very well done and you cover the whole process. Nowadays there is too much info available to the point it makes a new beginner do things without knowing why.
Keep up the great work man.
Thanks, I really appreciate that.
Thanks a lot, very informative!
This is a great channel. Thanx, 👍
Great video thankyou ,
Thank you the video was very useful to me
Great Video!
I like to use Steinbergs Quadrafuzz for parallel compressing, especially for extra low end.
Hi Thanks for this, One thing I noticed about the song by Shane and Marie Pascal is the arrangement you've done It's just so Beautiful Knowing what goes where and how to do it . I wish you could do a video on that , I'm certain getting the music right helps enormously , Vocal performance is exceptional.
Good video , i just upgraded to cubase pro 12 and this is very imformative
Really helpful - thanks so much. There's a lot of great information here. A bonus as well is that I use Cubase. 👍🙂
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video! I'm new here but I'm subscribing. I'm just a home hobbyist but I do want to make great recordings.
Thank you so much for this. I absolutely love this channel and your cubase tips. It always helps me.
Appreciate that!
very helpful m8
Thanks!
Thank you, for the great tips! Basically, you showed us how to mix from the begining to end. Where do you put the phase meter to detect phase issues, Group/Aux channels or Stereo out, or both?
Start with the mains for global phase issues and then busses for spot checks
Very insightful
Glad it was helpful!
@@Featherlightstudio thank you so much
23 years in mixing and mastering, and you never stop learning, because technology keeps moving forward.
Definitely!
Thx, for this video, Very informative. Could you tell me what that beautiful song is with the female singer?
Thats Shaene Marie Pascal and that's her upcoming single "Seasons Greetings" Should be out by Christmas. Check here out here @shanemp
I am really loving your videos! I just had a question, unfortunately I am at the point where a lot of my projects over the years have gotten nested and give me lots of anxiety lol. How would you recommend fixing this? I find cubase isn’t quite as straightforward with saving projects as Logic Pro, but I I really prefer cubase. Any info would be incredible. Thanks again!
Thanks Matt, If your referring to how Cubase actually 'Stores' the project on your hard disk, I find the most helpful thing at the start of a project is ALWAYS create a separate folder for each project, instead of the Cubase default of storing everything in the same default folder.
The easiest way to do this on older projects that are nested in the default directory, is back the project up to a new project folder.
Open a project and go to file then go to Back Up project. Do this for all of them. In the future follow Steve's advice.
Be organized.
ALSO:
Use your Batch Export for future compatibility scenarios. This is the best Archive method to ensure you can open DATA 20 years from now. All tracks will be rendered as Audio Stems even your grps, reverbs and delays fx...
Great Teacher !! How do we stop the popping when recording vocals in Cubase Pro 12 thanks?
Sounds like you may be a bit close to the Mic? Maybe using a pop filter would help:

@@Featherlightstudio Thank You but it still pops
Hi I thought the gain staging was done at the pre stage and not via the track fader, as the further done the fader you travel the closer the DB division becomes
On modern day DAW's almost all engines run at 32 bit now. Gain staging is cumulative so good gain staging at the beginning of the signal chain is just as important as it is through out each stage of the project.
You mentioned using a separate 2 channel set up for mastering, but does that mean apart from having say a limiter on the stereo output all other plugins should be left out till the mastering ? Thanks
Generally yes, as you want to leave yourself more than enough headroom to work on your master file and if its squashed on the way out of the DAW, you kind of paint yourself into a corner before you start.
@@Featherlightstudio Thanks for the reply
👍👍👍👍👍
13:57 Can most instrument types benefit from parallel processing, including vocals?
The short answer is yes, especially if they are highly dynamic tracks.
That was a great tutorial when arre you doing another one
Thanks Steve, they are on the way!
Hi there
Please explain why are all the faders in different positions if they should be in the zero position?
I am new to Cubase. Thanks
'Starting' with the faders in the zero position simply affords you a better overall perspective of what's actually on each channel. Before the Mix can be set ( Faders all different levels ) proper gain staging must be considered sense this affects the Mix directly. 05:44
@@Featherlightstudio
I understand you, so I can reduce the volume on the fader instead of the gain volume?
Thanks
@@vaclav397 Yes, gain is used to set proper gain stage for the incoming signal to the channel, the faders are used to set the level of that channel in the mix.
@@Featherlightstudio Thanks 👍👍👍
Can you please help me put 2 or more vst instuments on one track like i can easily do in ableton. I haven't been able to do this in cubase and it really bothers me slows down my creativity. Thank you
Heh Jack, While each track can only have 1 VSTi, that VSTi track can have as many MIDI tracks controlling it as your computer can push. If the VSTi is multitimbral like Halion SE, Kontak, ect, you can have separate MIDI tracks controlling each VSTi part at the same time.
@@Featherlightstudio thank you for the information, so could i have somehow 1 sylenth vst synth on 5 seperate tracks? Or do i need to load 5 individual sylenth vsts ?
@@jackc8120 as far as I know older synths like Sylenth weren't multitimbral like the newer Serum, Massive, ect, so you would have to load an instance of the synth for each track or part. Newer stuff like Omnisphere, ect you can load one instance and then create several MIDI tracks to control it.
You're missing one very important advice, that should be right at the top of your list, for anyone using Cubase Pro or Nuendo. Turn on the ControlRoom feature!!!! And place any effect that you don't want to print (such as room correction EQ) there. That way you'll never run the risk of forgetting to turn it off, and accidentally print your mix with the room correction active. This happens all the time, and has ruined countless mixes.
It's no fun sending away, or upload a mix, a mix only to find out that it sounds weird everywhere, but in your studio!
These videos try to cover as much of the Cubase community as possible and only Cubase Pro offers the Control Room feature.
@@Featherlightstudio An excelent reason to upgrade, för those who havn't done so, then!
