I tend to focus more on reverbs and delays as a whole in the mix. I Generally only have 2 global plate reverbs. I make them mono, eq and adjust them slightly different with size and predelay to create as real a sense of space as possible (I might also add a slap back delay). Then I use a global dark 1/4 or 1/8 note delay (low passed somewhere between 800 and 500 Hz) to glue the mix together. I feel like I'm starting to get the hang of it.
Huge. Never used sends since I do "just deathmetal" and didn't see the benefit, other than lower processing requirements, but this is really awesome info with direct application and examples!
I've been getting great feedback on the mixes I do with the Recording Revolution workflow! (Now, I do admit I don't always remember to do all the steps in order yet, but I'm working on it!) Looking forward to designing a template with my own favorite effects, and learning to use sends! I've begun eq-ing the effects, but for each thing individually :)
Hi Joe, thanks for the tips, you have helped me so much over the years! I have a question about processing vocal double and triples. Do you process them all separately or should I just send them all to a bus and treat them as one vocal?
Are you mixing vocals in a separate project form the entire song? Do you then export the mixed vocal and add it to the main song project? How do you get the mix to sit well with the rest of the instruments?
I’m still new to Studio One. What is the difference between using the Send Volume and using the Effects channel fader? Or are they essentially the same?
Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you would use the effects fader if you had a bunch of tracks going to the FX channel and you wanted to increase or decrease the effect all at once. For an individual track probably just use the send volume.
@@sgg6927 it could be, but it is more the other way around: if you have a bunch of channels sent to an FX channel, the better is that you keep the FX channel fader at 0 dB and then you control the amount of FX individually by setting the send fader in each track. If you have just one channel sent to an FX channel, then it doesn’t matter if you set the send fader or the FX channel fader.
Thanks for sharing these settings. They are a great starting place for "standard" template settings. I have just rebuilt the S1 song template you taught in your MIXING class (EXCELLENT Class) and I'm incorporating these as well as saving them as presets in my "standard" library. Thanks Joe!
"worry monster" 😔😌 you have my vote JG 🙇♂
I only used FX channels with sends now, it's a God send (no pun intended).
Even with the orchestral stuff I do I always roll off some low and some high end EQ! Shaping reverb is so important!
You are an excellent teacher. Thanks for sharing this, as the idea of templates can really speed up the work flow and ultimately your productivity.

Clear and concise, thanks Joe

thanks a lot
Is there a way to adjust the % of wetness of all 5 plugins at once? As in all of them turned on are the 100%, as if they are all 1 effect. In Cubase?
Are you mixing vocals in a separate project form the entire song? Do you then export the mixed vocal and add it to the main song project? How do you get the mix to sit well with the rest of the instruments?
Oh, no, that is only for showing the possibilities. You must always check the vocals within the mix and I know Joe works this way.
