Great video, really appreciate you making this and sharing the details. I just wondered if you have the project file available? I'm new to Ableton and music and trying to get an idea of timing, when chords come in and how the melody interacts with the chords. How best to understand it all? Thanks!

Hey! you can also press cmd on the keyboard while youre drawing automations, so you dont have to deselect the grid scale, this way the automation is straightaway smooth and not boxy :)

Attack is moreso how quickly the target compression ratio is reached. The slower the attack, the longer it takes for it to reach the ratio you set. The attack doesn't start any later.

New trend is coming among music priducers not to use compression at all as it kills soul of music.
@mickiewriedtАй бұрын
In film music I rarely use compression, since a bigger dynamic range is often appreciated in cinema. But it’s often used in streaming music and similar to get the levels close to eachother, so it won’t be very quiet one place and loud another. Since most people listen to music on headphones and not in the cinema, a big dynamic range can be a problem. But I totally agree, that it does give life to the music, to not over compress

man, your content is actually useful, not that click-baiting gibberish. you make it so easy to understand, straight to the point, and its also funny. keep the good work man! i also have a question, what's your mixing process? i'm starting making music, and the hardest part for me is the mixing. i don't know if i should mix while i produce, or if i should finish the song first and then mix it, or if i should do something else. now i'm stucked in my current production cause i think it's sounding so different from what i want, but everytime i try to mix something like EQ or reverb or whatever, i get stuck and snowball it to worse. maybe i'm overdoing it.
@mickiewriedt2 ай бұрын
Thank you so much man! And well, you can’t avoid having to mix in the end a bit. But I always mix during the process of making the music, mostly because I think the mixing is also a creative process. It doesn’t have to be a lot, but trying to make sure instruments have space for each other while making the music is very helpful! Don’t think about it too much. Maybe just make space with an eq, and send instruments to a reverb or delay bus, to keep it simple and tidy. The rest you can do after 🙏

VERY GOOD STUFF MAN!!!! I remember these words causing so much confusion when I first started. It's great to see ya tackle it! 😄 One of my favorite ways to identify these sounds is by splitting a multi-band compressor into lows, low-mids, upper-mids, and highs! You can then solo each band and compare it to a reference track! It's so much less overwhelming this way. You can then hear how the reference sounds in these ranges, identify the tone of each sound, and make adjustments to better match the two! I know clients LOVE IT when you can make their song as close to their favorite references they give you 😍 Again, another fantastic video from ya!!!! Also, I've been using Sonarworks for 4+ years, and it's absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend it!

I turns everything up, yes, but it turns down peaks beforehand. Do you not agree with the visual explanation?
@VinceKrosh2 ай бұрын
@@mickiewriedt the visualization is correct, the explanation is wrong. You turn (or do not turn) things up yourself, by increasing volume (makeup). But that is not part of compression process itself. Compressor can only turn things down and you can see it on your graph. I’ve written my notes only because you mentioned deep dive (which is why I got hooked up to the video), but then misrepresented basic concepts. Same with threshold - it doesn’t always show where compressor will start kicking in, cause with the soft knee it might start much earlier. And some other stuff, which could have been okay, if the video wouldn’t be presented the way it were, sorry🤷♂️
@mickiewriedt2 ай бұрын
@ okay, I see your point. I thought I did make it clear, that compressor turns down peaks, and then makeup brings everything up afterwards. And the video was never meant to be really in depth look at the compressor, it was meant as a to the point look at how compression works, so everyone understands. I’m sorry I misguided you, that was not intentional! Thanks for the feedback, I will take it into account on new videos ☀️
