  • In this episode of the audionerds podcast the guys talk about mix and mastering techniques that they love. Should you EQ before you compress? Can you use a limiter 4 times in mastering? Do you do phase tricks to make the sound source sound larger? Is mastering harder than mixing? Do you process BG vocals very different from leads? Lets find out?

    22:09 YES! I used to have my bands In-Ear Monitors and the Crowd Mics set up this way.
    All 4 of us had in ears in, stereo mixes with the X32 Then we had 2 sm57s in an X pattern infront of the stage.
    We had it set up to automatically turn the crowd mics OFF when the backing tracks from the TrackBook start playing.

    A hidden Gem for pro tools users for the reverse reverb effect...open "DVerb" go to the part of the vocal you want to apply effect (works best on vowels ) click the end of the "vowel" hold shift and click the space before the vowel (depends on how long you want the reverb tail) highlighting the vowel and space before where the effect will start...then at the bottom of "DVERB" click reverse , then pull back the audio of the vocal clip and blend in the effect 💎

    I’m a DJ who only did a little beat making on MPC a couple years ago, but dropped it focus on DJing. Half the stuff y’all talk about on the pod I have no clue what y’all are referring to but it’s fun to watch and hear y’alls perspective on music. The topics are for a niche audience but the way y’all present it has mass appeal.

    I really don't comment as much as I should but I watch every episode. Bringing artist on the show would be a huge game changer. As an artist who records and mixes myself, I'd love to hear from others who do the same. Ariana Grande, Young Thug, Travis Scott, Future all track themselves. Chris Brown has a very fast paced workflow, etc ect. It would be nice to see the strengths and weaknesses of certain types of artist in there creative environment

Just something to think about. Hope to see some cool artists on the pod tho
