Is this something you do to just balance your mix in terms of individual volume on each diffrent track compared to eachother? Is this before or after you've put eq and compression on your tracks?

Interesting stuff. I take it that compression, limiters and gains were used when mixing older music from the 50's and 60's. Was a recording mixed after the song was recorded?

I think you can use the Oxford inflator as a clipper only plugin by turning on the red clip 0 db button and turning down the effects slider all the way with effect green light on. Use the input gain to push the signal into the clipper and adjust output as necessary. The effects slider I believe is used to add saturation.
@DistinctMastering28 күн бұрын
Check out the manual so you get a full understanding. The input value is just a typical input slider however you can overdrive the plugin for distortion: media.uaudio.com/support/manuals/dd/Oxford%20Inflator%20Manual.pdf

Hey Boss thank you for this video. I'm wondering why you're not adding the effects as inserts on the "TRACK" track. Also how would you go about integrating outboard gear to that mastering template?
@DistinctMasteringАй бұрын
Because that’s typically not where I put them. I do everything in aux sends. Occasionally maybe I’ll add an eq on the track itself but not often. Or I’ll process the wave directly with an audiosuite plugin. Make a aux send called hardware and route your chain externally. Same thing

@PixelWaveAI2 ай бұрын
In Ableton, you can set the SoundReference ID driver as the audio output rather than using the plugin on the master channel. This prevents forgetting to enable the plugin and avoids zero dB calibration issues caused by the plugin's safety room. You can still use your sound card as the input, with routing handled in the SoundReference main settings. This method allows for accurate speaker calibration, and with the SoundID icon, you can easily switch correction profiles when changing speakers, eliminating resampling problems.

Yes I've done this before but this is likely not how most people are using it so I thought I'd share a tip on this for people that do use the plug in version. I am not currently doing it this way though I may try again. I will have to test this as I have a bit of a complicated routing I setup to record the videos with the Sonarworks running in my environment but not to the recording. However I'm running into an issue with solo's not being sent to the video at the moment. Thank you for the fantastic comment.
@PixelWaveAIАй бұрын
@@DistinctMastering Aside from routing that requires the inputs and outputs of your sound card (such as an analog compressor or other hardware), you will occasionally need to use plugins. However, beyond that, you will quickly understand the advantages, especially when it comes to zero-latency monitoring in Ableton and using the saferoom on the physical output of your sound card. This setup eliminates issues with LUFS during mastering and prevents unpleasant surprises. Even a deviation of ±1dB at -7 LUFS can make a significant difference, often not for the better.

Hello, Thanks for explaining. For mixing sessions, do you recomend RMS or K meters? I use RMS as it shows the average loudness, but does K Metering also shows the average loudness?

I use K Metering for gain staging, check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5bUaqF3hc9or7s For overall loudness I use RMS still and LUFS. I use two different loudness meters for various things. K metering I use during the production process.
