    Of all the gain staging videos I’ve seen on UA-cam this is by far one of the clearest and most concise ones I’ve seen. Thanks, Maurice!

    This video is a literal goldmine of understanding. I just learned so much, thanks man. It was like the last secret sauce tidbits I needed to really solidify my understanding.

    This was a great video. Didn't realize the DAW channels wouldn't clip. Very simple and straightforward explanation.

    This is very great to know. It’s really interesting that you understand how to use it. Okay so I can have your input and mix my projects

    This is helpful information. I usually just turn down the volume directly on the plugin, then use the mixer knob to adjust the instrument sound to taste in context with the other sounds in the beat/song. You exposed some new techniques. I'll be watching this video over, until I understand what you were doing with the gain plugin and the peak and loudness. Can you do a mixing tutorial video? Thanks for sharing your expertise. Blessings and peace to you and yours.

    Great video thanks. How does pre-fader metering fit in to this?

    • @chevaliermusic
      @chevaliermusic  16 днів тому

      Pre-fader metering is just a good way to see the level of the signal entering the channel. But it’s also important to check post fader metering to see what is exiting the channel and being sent to downstream processors

    Any tips on gainstaging instrument tracks that have Neural plugins or amp sims?

    • @chevaliermusic
      @chevaliermusic  17 днів тому +1

      There would be no difference. -18 full scale average would still be the optimal input level. You can then increase or decrease the input level a bit, to achieve the desired tone.

    What's the key command to normalize region?

    • @chevaliermusic
      @chevaliermusic  10 днів тому

      It may differ based on the version of Logic you’re using. Try looking under the edit menu in the main tracks view.

    32 bit float is better for newbs but I prefer to do it correctly first .

  • @eliaszerano3510
    @eliaszerano3510 9 днів тому

    woudl be nice if we coudl disable that 'analog behavior' from eth past and directly mix hot without first normalising to see something and then reduce teh gain again thats just stupid
