    I've been producing for several months now, and releasing my music since september 2023, and I know I have so much to learn, but this video was very helpful! I also use ableton live, and have been using the stock EQ eight, do you recommend using third party EQ instead?

    Thanks, that was very interesting. As a minor remark, I found that your voice is much louder than the examples you've shown so it was sometimes hard to hear. So maybe mix your voice a bit quieter. Also, creating a bit more "space", i.e., some more pauses between you talking and the examples could also help with focusing on the material.

    • @shanonkiyoshi4784
      @shanonkiyoshi4784 3 місяці тому +1

      Dynamic EQs are far more surgical than Multi-Band Compressors because you can target specific frequencies + you can adjust the Q which most -- if any -- Multi-Band Compressors CAN NOT do 😎👍🎛

      My pleasure to help! But with the full song only it's tricky. You would need stems. Nowadays, AI tools can help you splitting the track into stems but the result is not perfect. Secondly, only do a remix this way as a personal exercise and not for publishing unless you have the official permission or the track is not under copyright (anymore) - just saying! :)
