interesting video; ive always preferred to use saturation, harmonics or waveshapers (oxford inflator did it first) rather than smashing into multiple limiters - im not a fan of the sound and it tends to crush transients; maybe try newfangled elevate if that's your style as it has a nice clipper/saturation tool and transient emphasis with 26 bands of adaptive gain/limiting (limitless has 6 - and i usually prefer it, but you may prefer elevate for your particular workflow) thanks for the vids
Actually I saturate individual elements and busses instead of the master bus, I've never been a fan of mix bus saturation/clipping but there's multiple ways of reaching the same goal, thanks for watching !
Can you do a video on how to achieve a solid mix
It's definitely coming very soon, thanks for watching!
thoma$ said that many many many info and work to one, Do everything gently! ty man
thank you for watching !
I like using a clipper like standard clip right before the last limiter. even oxford inflator too
Not really a fan of clipping the master bus, I actually clip buses tho, thanks for watching!

how much gain reduction on your one final limiter usually?
@@snubdawg1386 maximum 1.5db but usually it's 0.5 to 1db.
Compressor, clipper then limiter
this really depends on the genre of music and the track, thanks for watching !
@thomaswithdollars does the same thing no matter what genre. The genre determines how to set the levels of each effect
why so low volume?
as far was as what ?
@@thomaswithdollars yes! what?
@@snubdawg1386 I don't understand your question
@@thomaswithdollars just a lil trolling ... -8 lufs seems always pretty easily to achieve -6 and more, shit gets interesting
@@snubdawg1386 oh sorry I didn't get it haha, some tracks benefit from being mastered at -6 lufs, but generally I think it's too loud for no reason
