Do you EQ your loops & samples?

Love the video; not too many people touch upon this topic. Do you have any recommendations on how to clean up a sample that's too bright and has too much reverb? I find these hard to work with.. should I cut the highs a bit? Put the sample in mono? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello! I have one simple question about one of your old videos from 2017,, the video explains audiojungle license, the question is if i bought one single sound track (Music Standard License) can I use it as a background music for a story telling content for multiple videos ( same content "stories") its only going to be one channel that i'll use this audio track in,, will i get demonitized and also how do i know if i will not get copyrighted cause it's my first time buying an audio track, Thank you for your time!

I’d reach out to them. As a musician I’m not really focused on a buyers rights

Pleas help!!! Ive benn making what I think dope music with samples, dont have money for instruments now, and I need to eq them to make the track sound awesome (I´m mostly equing in a mastering kind of way like everything gets the same eq and vibe and then I copy the eq to each track) but after equing, I think because of the samples already being compressed, the sound stops sounding flat and not in a good way at all. It´s driving me crazy I tried smart comp 2 fter my eq with its spectral compression and it helps but still not satisfied. There has to be a way around it cause if not it´s just a gigantic bummer that sample developers are compressinng their samples I mean its ust not making sense to me! PLEASE HELP!!!! (Any kind of equing not only mastering concept wise but any aproach it doesnt work) EDIT: Just tried smrt comp not on every track but on a samples drum bus and melodic harmonic and bass samples bus and its giving a pretty decent result still not ideal tho.

Honestly you probably don't need to compress everything. And if you do, it shouldn't be more than 2-3 dB. And your attack times should be pretty slow, at least 30 ms in most cases. Honestly if you're just using samples, I would probably try not to use any EQ or compression on individual channels and just stick to using a touch of EQ and compression on the master bus until you understand how they work better. You're less likely to over process something that already sounds decent.
