howling. we all learn someday

also i dont think u should be touching the fader on the master

tbf i feel like a lot of ppl do this. esp when fl studio would autoamtically have that soft clipper on the master? or something. whatever ppl say "fl sounds better"

i think its fine when like sending out beats but some artists dont even be asking for the stems so u can send that s*** over so it can get properly mixed n master

@lightmagic keep the fader on the master at Unison (0db)

the master is your reference it needs to remain relatively open, so that you're monitoring correctly

i mix into a limiter, but it's a knowing the rules so you can know how to break them situation

yes yes limiter on the master chain

Where u learn that from

Theres one artist i engineer for and ppl always complain about the mix, got any advice for learning more?

are you looking for general stuff, or specific stuff?

General tbh

i was very lucky and learned most stuff hands on with people/mentors, so i don't have a youtube tutorial or anything to send you but there's a book by Bob Katz

amazon.com/Mastering-Audio-Third-Art-Science/dp/0240818962

that's really good

otherwise just roll thru forums and tutorials. test things out and trust your ears

Just always seeing it at 0 everywhere

This is really old but lowkey a classic

okay it's silly, but these orbs are legitimately a good way to think about it

honestly my best advice is to listen to older people and have an open mind. a lot of mixing has been figure out for decades, and you can take any of these ideas and modernize them to taste.

makes sense

Any1 else usw teamr2r system? Took me a few hours but i figured everything out

if u like reading books and articles...

Never been in this thread... whattup

Currently sitting on 3 full-length projects from the past 6 years

Need some live instruments on ts though wouldn't mind a pretty singer either

I have one of these that I'm tryna get rid of (not the MK-II)

Would def give you a good price if interested

Headroom/mixing problems are often arrangement problems in disguise. Like if you have two instruments clashing in a bandwidth then you might only need one of them. That took me wayy too long to realise when i started
