do you have a link to the list you made that explains each setting of the decapitator? Also, do you have a tutorial about Fab Filter 3? Great videos! Thanks!

I love the quality content and the professional set up and everything but one feedback I'd like to give is that the thumbnails of your videos feel a bit dry, making the thumbnail catchy and click-able would surely up your youtube game sir.

Very good tuto. Where did you take your drums from ? Love this loop ! Michel 8:31

bro u are extremely underrated

Kclip has a free clipper. FYI.

Can you share the MIDI? I really like it

that's a great sound, will probably be my earworm for today

Hell yes!

Sounds good - Cheers! 👍👍👍

Great videos bud. Keep it up 🙌🏻

Thank you for sharing this information 😊

Nice vid, although I believe hard clipping is more transparent, as soft clipping will introduce even and odd harmonics and general saturation to the sound.

kclip is also free, transparent and can visualise the clipping

Nice

😇😇😇

What sample pack is that your using please? Thanks

LOUDNESS PENALTY: ANALYZER, music at 12 luffs is left alone apart from apple, Pandora will turn it up by 6db so you can add 6 luffs. 1luff =1db and the rest says no penalty's imposed. Luffs is more for broadcasting music, so music videos for example will be at 14 luffs , this is so when the adverts come on there is no big jumps in volume like back in the day. As adverts were always turned up to 11 so if you popped to the toilet in the add breaks you still got brain fed bullshit to buy.

It is only really apple who mess with your music, fuck apple !

Sounds nice. Doesn't the parallel trick around 16:57 achieve the same thing as the mix knob in the plugin?

Could I use the Glue compressor for this or is there a reason for using the regular compressor ? :-)

Nice quality video

Do you set the kick at -8dB and have the drum rack at -12dB as well?

What about Multiband compression ? It's an easy way to make a boom using a kick .

It was very informative! I have some studio headphones. I am just starting out. If I just have headphones, do I need an audio interface?

With the ratios you will find that 2 is high, 4 is mid and 10 is low. If you set the ratio to 4, bring the threshold down, look at the peak volume, change the ratio to 10, the peak volume will become louder, which means that the 10 ratio is low. Also, if you set the ratio to 2, set the threshold down to O, and make sure you sound is peaking at 0 before the compressor is on, the signal will be compressed a lot, even though no threshold has been applied. That’s because when setting the ratio to 2 you are activating a knee that’s built in. So, ratio 2 activates the knee and you need to bring the peak down a lot before compression, ratio 4 is the equivalent to a 2.5 ratio on a standard ableton compressor and ratio 10 is significantly lower.

I just want to say Luke helped me mix my last track and did SO well! Thanks!

Your explanation and demonstration is very insightful! I'll be checking out your other videos.

Good mix multiple sound sources thank god for this guy been saying this for 20 years when "pros" said I could!t eq my monitor out to compensate for the multiple sound sources I'm used to.

Great explanations thank you!! Regarding drum group compression, do you usually start by compressing and panning each element individually and then add the glue compressor? Or you start with the glue and adjust from there?

Great video, thanks. I was somewhat aware of these concepts but it was really useful to see them all practically demonstrated in one video and now I have a much firmer understanding. The only thing I can think of that would've also been worth mentioning is the "correlation meter" reading that we see in for example Voxengo Span.

This is only the second video I've watched on here and i can tell you guys that this is pro level information ... Congrats

Don't make it stereo huge and you'll get wider mixes.

This is no secrets at all. Clickbait title.

when you describe that EQ move as "adding some Christmas" I felt a complete epiphany of how EQ can shift a song's whole vibe *chef's kiss*

Great content, thanks. Do you prefer mode 2 of Ozone 9 for a reason? I use mode 1 (Haas effect), more potent but easy to overdo it vs mode 2 it seems

good explanation, thanks!

Thank you for this vid! I got Sylenth1 last Black Friday but have used it primarily with presets so I'm definitely ready to start doing some basic sound design.

Im working in a genre that’s all analog/traditional instruments, and I’ve found that I like to just put a send on every instrument to the same reverb on a track because it sounds more like a band playing in a room where the room reacts to the instruments together as one source of sound rather than a bunch of different sources of reverb colliding into each other. Once I started doing that it was a lot easier to manage the reverb in the mix. I still might send lead vocals to another reverb for effect but for the most part all instruments and vocals hit the same reverb unit at different levels and it sounds more cohesive and it’s a far less complicated mix.

Happy Teachers Day Man ! Your efforts to educate the community are priceless and how much work goes into every video to just bring us the best of what you have got also. Creators like Warren, you and many more are Godsent, you guys make time for the community. Pure Intentions to express and educate, are rare ! <3

Thanks for the advice. I was recently mixing one of my own productions that had exactly this problem. The Bass, Kick, and two guitars all wanted a piece of that 250hz - 500hz space.

This channel is a hidden GEM !

Good advice. On the subject of being distracted by your computer, what works for me is that I use a different computer for music production than I do for work, email, games, etc. It’s a computer that’s solely dedicated to production and it’s on a different side of the room than the computer I use for everything else. If I open up a browser it’s because it has to do with something I’m doing like reading how to do a thing in my daw. It really helps to not be distracted.

Hey, I have a question! So I had to move my studio back into my bedroom which means back to headphones. I am currently in the process of finding a good pair of closed back headphones as my environment isn't always silent. But besides that, I thought I'd ask for a video suggestion on how to properly process/mix/master vocals for remixes? Specifically extracted already processed vocals? I am aware of all the potential headaches that comes with but there are times it's possible to find a isolated vocal version someone may post on youtube or even the vocal acapella itself that sounds really nice with minimal artifacts to the ear. I have found that there is almost no videos on youtube of edm producers showing their process. I'd like to know the do's and dont's. The process from beginning to end - Gainstaging, Clip Volume adjustment if the waveform is drastically uneven or even just way too low, then onto processing like getting rid of unwanted frequencies usually left behind, how to enhance them with common plug-ins or even abelton stock. I work on a lot of remixes for practice and vocals are just always so tedious to me. Adding effects and vocal chopping techniques is another beast to master, but mainly getting the vocals to sound as clear as possible. How to properly reference them to another track and so on. I also find it very confusing when I get advice from blogs, youtube producers and then others argue against their methods for example: EQing the low end > Soothe > Utility in Mono > fresh air > and so on. Someone had said that mid/side EQ was pointless or using the method of utility in mono wasn't needed. I guess my ears are just not trained well enough to ear for things I'm supposed to. Also reading meters, etc. I'd like to know what to hear for and look for on a spectrum analyzer. The order of plug-ins or the best method. Sorry if this is a lot and all over the place! But I love the way you explain things. I'd say I'm near intermediate advanced with production but vocals whether its a male or female there are different approaches to them. Would greatly appreciate it :)

Monitor speakers give some kind of illusion especially in untreated rooms. Ear phones are preferably better

Cool video, was a good watch. I also use E on bass and simetimes vocals. It really beefs up the low end and gives a nice silky high end

Thx 👍

Thank You So much! (andygusnan)

First compression video that has actually taught me something, thank you!

I don't know if theres any sound design related vídeos, i've always find myself using presets and packs, but i kinda wanna know how to produce my own audio
