I take many care of gain stagin, sidechain proces, high passing. Saturación is your friend. Compresion its your friend. And all the stuff that I've learned from my friend warren.
I recently realised how effective mid-side processing on the master bus can really clean/clear things out for vocals, snare etc. to punch through the center.
Marc, you’ve helped me improve my mixing by 90%.. I really sucked bad at mixing but now I just suck! What an incredible human being and a legend in my book. I hope I get the privilege of meeting you someday! Thank you so much for what you do sir! 🙏🏻
Where have WE been!! Where have you been, Marc? It's great to see you back, and with another great insight. For that reason, we'll forgive you. But don't let it happen again, right? Top flight, bro
Now I've seen it done 100 different ways. I've tried it myself 100 way, but this is the first time someone was able to explain it this well and allowed me to actually hear what is being taken out in this way. Every time Marc Daniel Nelson has a video on here, it's a complete revelation. It's unbelievable how good this guy is.
Also, adding a small amount of midrange saturation with something like fab filter Saturn is great for giving a bit more loudness. Genre dependent of course, but can really help elevate the track.
Very neat! Get the loudness bump without sacrificing the details. And a very good choice of music to demonstrate it on clearly. Thanks! PS: I'd like to point out that having had a chance to go back and review multiple videos from Marc, I've observed a constant trend. Aside from all of the videos having useful information and interesting insight, they all have something else in common: be it day or night, smooth piece of instrumental or loud hard rock -- in every video, at no point are both Marc and that dog, that you always see in the background, conscious at the same time! ..Now, I'm not suggesting that only when Marc goes to sleep, does the dog wake up, or that there is any sort of inception-like X-Files activity going on here.. but you're free to draw such conclusions. I merely share an observation 🙃🤫🛸
I instantly like this guy. No fluff > all useful information. He even taught me, (an old dog) some new tricks. And hey, how can you hate on a guy (not that I would, but so many do...) who has a REAL Fairchild AND a TubeTech in his rack over his right shoulder.
Great tip. I like how adding the clipper before the limiter helps keep the mix open. With just the limiter, the mix flattened out and lost the open soundstage of the unlimited mix, but the clipper allowed that to be retained.
Absolute gold mine. It's not just the information, it's the presentation. One small example- having the in/out display while I've got everything running thru my monitors makes it that much easier to experience what Marc is demonstrating. Many other techniques, too. Love it Warren! This channel is a f***ing gold mine.
My initial thought on chopping off those transients with the clipper was that it would destroy them and make the track sound flat (like the limiter did when pushed hard) Amazing how it does the exact opposite and gave them more punch.
I always use a clipper before the limiter, it helps maintain at least 70% of the pleasant transient Sometimes i go back to mixes and add clippers to individual tracks or busses and adjust accordingly KClip by Kazrog and StandardClip are my favorite.
WOW! this was uploaded two years ago, and I'm mastering a project today where I totally needed this!!!! I've been using multistage limiting for years (where I use the first one just to lift the level but making sure there's absolutely NO reduction on the meter, and then using the second stage for the bulk of the heavy lifting, but it's never truly sounded great. NOW THIS!!!! This sounds so good! Who knew clipping could actually sound CLEANER in the end lol....such an awesome and timely video for me right now! Thanks so much!
Marc has been my favorite since the UAD series he did a few years back, so pumped that Warren has him on here, it’s like a little hidden MDN channel inside Produce like a Pro 🙌🏼
My dude, I truly appreciate and enjoy your vids. That is my motto "...just one more clean db". I find with a balanced mix (not mine, they tend to be all over the place) once you pass 10db lufs or maybe 9.5db lufs is where the mix tends to fold in. Getting below 9db lufs and retaining clarity and punch is difficult for most. Thank you for the insight!
This video surprised me. My last two plugins on master bus are exactly the same with Marc, and it's how I use the clipper as well. Great tips! Thanks for sharing these!
Haven't been here in a while but I have just been reminded of how much I enjoy Marc's videos! Love his explanations and his tactics, always very eye opening.
Really glad I saw this video. I've been using both of these tools for the past 6 months as the last two plugins on the master bus, but always with StandardCLIP as last in chain. There's a setting called "Final Maximizer - use after Limiter" which is predominantly how I've been applying this plugin. I guess after a while my brain wired to think StandardCLIP is designed to always be used after the Limiter. Complete brain fart... I know. Thanks Marc, I'm going to try applying the approach you just demonstrated.
Mr. Nelson...thank you so much. I dig the info, it is informative. What's even Mo'betta is that you eliminate distractions and I can both hear and follow you. I am OCD and I have Misophonia (yeah, look that one up). As a result there are MANY informative videos I cannot even attempt watch do to un-edited mouth noises in addition to annoying presenters who cannot go a sentence without using "And Ummm", "Like", and a myriad of other annoying presentation mistakes. Thank YOU! -mg!
This is a great tip Daniel. I can definitely hear what you are doing and will give it a try... I am a smooth jazz producer. To prevent low end mud buildup, I use HP filters on instruments I know will have excessive low end (synthetic, bass, kick etc). And to brighten up I will EQ as necessary. I do not use a limiter on my master mix bus.. During the final mix,, I allow at least -6 db. min to -3 db max to give the mastering Engineer headroom to work with. When I am doing the mastering, I usually use several limiters in-line on the master channel to get my final level.... Thank you
Sometimes a separate Peak and RMS Compressor before limiting can help. For limiting a beast for me is the Limiter6 by Tokyo Dawn Labs. It has 5 Stages and you can do the trick Marc shows here within that plugin. There's a great explanation video by Dan Woran about it. He is THE ONE Plugin explainer of the world for me.
Great Tip that I will try... but as a music lover first, it makes me so sad that we have to do this. The example track clearly sounded better before the limiting, and yet we feel we have to compromise the quality of our music to satisfy the loudness monster. I am soooo tired of bands loving my mixes, only to complain that they're not loud enough. I've been enjoying my 80's CD's for 30 years and they're way quieter than what I'm mixing today.
Loudness is not gained at mastering or in the mixbuss. Loudness depends on the production and mixing phase. A song with a huge crest factor cannot be loud. Of course putting pro L on a highly dynamic song will not get you far lufs-wise. Saturation, clipping, limiting, compresion on single channels is your friend. But you need to know how/when to use them. And again, a well mixed loud song will always sound better than a super dynamic one. But to get there, you need experience, not just putting Pro L on the master.
Absolutely agree. Nice seeing knowledgable person telling us how bad limiting can be. I personally would use a Preamp Distortion plugin instead a Clipper, cause clippers cause a little bit of Earfatigue. We could argue that it would sound best simply without any Limiter-clipper. But im audiophile, so i love a perfectly used Preamp-distortion, on almost anything, on single tracks, or just on the master. Or rather coloring Eqs, wich in the end is the similar thing: Distortion. So: perfection without regards to LUFS would probably been no limiting, or just a tiny bit, cause limiters can be beneficial, they can give the sound an oomph, and like said predominantly i use preampdistortion-color eqs for the same benefitial oomph. That give em sound. Clippers, i never say never. If something hasnt any power at all, i sometimes use clipper, But you get the idea, i like a breeze of limiting, a breeze of Distortion, to bring forward any part in the spectrum, to give it that oomph. PEace
Fantastic advice as always. The cleanest and most transparent clipping method that I’ve found is just to push Cubase’s channels into the red before routing it to a group track for the next stage of processing. They must have coded the program to try to avoid distortion artifacts at all costs! That method uses one less plugin too! It may well work with other DAWs too!
I'm not a Cubase user, but in a modern DAW and the "32-bit floating point architecture", you can only clip your signal if it comes out clipped from the master output. I doubt there is any clipping happening unless Cubase has some sort of console emulation going on.
Clipping is great, I use kclip 3 from Kazrog, especially on my new song I’m working on , on drum bus, some times crunchy bass and things, very sparingly, keeping the input low and just shaving the top a little makes it stand out a little bit whilst also stopping it peaking to high, really does give my master bus limiter less work to do, I have also started making my mix a little more dynamic than I normally would, the end result being able to bring it together more forgivingly.
I really enjoy watching watch Daniel Nelson at work is love and passion for shaping and creating a wonderful mix is something that I have as well the information he provides is priceless keep them coming
Marc's always a great inspiration with these videos! In Reaper I believe you can do this distortion monitoring with any plugin using the Delta setting in the plugin window for those without a limiter with a monitoring option like Pro L!
What a great idea/tip! I wonder if using a multiband clipper would be even better on the way in, to get a more surgical clip. I've never used one, but see they exist. Definitely trying this. Thank you!
Really good demo of this technique. I've really been trying to understand better, the relationship between limiters and clippers. The order you use them in a mastering chain is something I'm trying to dial in....also where a compressor comes into the picture. I wish more limiters featured a solo preview 1-1 feature like the Pro L2.
Mark... You are always the BEST !! Never thought you'd be using standard clip being a pretty old plugin. ... Thanks a bunch to Marc & Warren for all these goodies.... !! :)
Marc, thanks a lot. Very well explained and demonstrated. Great teaching. I learn a lot from your videos. My favorite series on the PLAP channel. P.S. Your sense of humor makes the videos even better.

Yay! I use this technique too! I'm so happy to find validation. But, my ears aren't trained as well, so I often over-do it and need to have someone tell me that there's too much distortion. Thanks for a great video. I think some people think the clipper comes after the limiter, and that can make sense, but not usually! And I should add that I use standardclip too because it allows such high quality in its filters.
@@marcdanielnelson317 Under control? :) I'm not there yet. :) But, yeah, I think that's the problem. Just a little green on the standardclip clip meters.... Thanks!
@@marcdanielnelson317 Can you spell out this rule for me, please? Do you mean when you like a mix, leave it alone and spend a fraction of the time that you did up to that point? Thanks in advance!
You can put a limiter on and mix into it hitting about -3 db gr with a kick drum and you will be nearly as loud as most music. I use sir a lot and I love how it cuts off the peaks, but something sometimes sounds boxy about it. using 2:1 seems to translate better to my ears.
And the Oversampling really works well .. it can actually smooth or not so (to taste) smooth you mix and master.. CPU heavy but if you use on Bus's and Master and play a little, its amazing how uncluttered your mix can become.. 16 Oversampling is pretty darn clear without going silly.. and you can hear the Dif on the Standard Clip plugins UA-cam demo vid.. Judicial Low n Hi Pass works well too..
Just one clean dB extra is exactly where I’m at. Picked up the clipper you used, which is brilliant, practiced with it including the limiter monitor check on Pro-L (didn’t know about this either) and was able to achieve what I needed. Very valuable tip, many thanks:)
Best teacher and most inspiring engineer I know of! I learned so much and everytime I watch Marc's videos I want to mix mix mix mix : ) and I'm really getting better at it! Thank you! I was wondering - hope you read this - you are doing this on the 2bus, but wouldn't it work just as well or better to clip just the snare track?

Neil Young's "Harvest." You gotta turn it up a little but then the emotional impact of the dynamic range is just pure audio magic.
I cringe every time someone puts proL on the master. Instant lifelessness. Do yall not get a demo first?
To be fair... the clipping trick helps a little.
And they keep remastering them to stay modern.With varying success.
Loudness is not gained at mastering or in the mixbuss.
