This changes everything for Mastering! Spectralayers!

[@farazplaysguitar]

Literally one the best channels on KZbin...!👏👏👏👌👌👌

[@artysanmobile]

It is simply a stunning advance that us mere mortals have this power available. It was not long ago at all this required super computers and overnight rendering to bring us a new perspective of the early Beatles’ live performances. The advancement of the algorithm is easily a million-fold since that time, now working in seconds on an affordable computer.

[@BlazonStone]

Also good for live recordings. Being able to isolate vocal microphones from stage noise is amazing for mixing live recordings

[@samsam2235]

Damn, that's awesome! Give us a full feature video, please.

[@Byron101_]

I´ve compared Spectralayers 10 with iZotope RX - SL wins. Very good job Steinberg!! nice times....

[@papitoredmusic1]

Damn Dom! You Sing! Badassery Wow, total game changer for old productions with no masters. Exciting time for me to remix my old man's music.

[@paulwilson4594]

It's Nice to hear your Voice and Music! Thank you for all that you do

[@compingharry]

As an amateur, songwriting, recording, and mixing was my main concern. Mastering very challenging. But these userfriendly possibilities makes you want to experiment with old recordings 😃 It's in the creative zone

[@km3musiclab]

I just went and purchased this immediately. I have Izoptope Ozone 9 Advanced and it's good, I think this might be slightly better. Especially the "NULL-FACTOR" you mentioned many times. This is truly "GAME CHANGING". I also like the interface of this software better than that of Izotope OZONE, much simpler visually and easy to navigate the tools and functions. THANK YOU Dom!!! You're, always giving us "golden nuggets" of useful information and resources.

[@stereofidelic67]

I use RX10 and Null-factor isn't going to do much tbh. It'll sound like fragmented white noise that'll you just have to mix back into at the end of the day.

[@artysanmobile]

That a full null is possible is a hint at how SpectraLayers calculates stems, using the equivalent of a checksum with data. Even so, it is quite amazing.

[@geoffswan1254]

I took an old live-desk FOH mix bootleg I made during the 80's (the old cassette recorder under the FOH desk trick) and it managed to unmix the whole band and drums into separate tracks really well. Amazing.

[@mgmthegrand]

3:35 Of course we're interested in all the unmix options, Dom. C'mon now. Give us another BOOM 💥 video!🙏🏾 PS: Congrats on 100K!!! That's 100k quality subscribers. No fake accounts, no scams, no click bait. That is phenomenal, man!

[@mono_to_STEREO]

Superb video Dom! Those of us who upmix older mono source material to stereo know that SpectraLayers Pro is an essential application! It is truly the best spectral editor in the world!

[@ozdrjohn]

i had no idea what that plugin was. great explanation (as always) - i suspect that is about to become my new best friend as my drum programming is truly awful! thanks dom, quality as always...

[@GuyVignati]

No way…at 7:47 you had me completely. This truly is a game changer and the fact that it’s that much precise is incredible

[@claimsmediastudiocms5965]

this is why i am a die hard Steinberg user

[@scargoprods]

Just went for it and tried it and let me testify SpectraLayers 10 pro is incredibly powerful (and quite easy to manage)! Excellent job, Steinberg!

[@BleuNoirProductions]

10:12 When i first found out it picks up reverb and effects (from one of your earlier videos) about this I was literally, genuinely speechless for a minute. The future is now! 😄 Oh, and _definitely_ looking forward to a full video!

[@carlosalmeida7174]

Duuuuuude, you really put a smile on my face!! I can see this being used for practicing other people's songs with real backing tracks and analising our favourite songs!! This is beyond incredible, no more fantasising with Izotope RX \m/

[@wadebay]

Awesome! The clarity and smoothness of the sound, and depth and speed of the processing.. wow. And yes to the full video-- when you have time, of course.

[@Skijumptoes]

Even the version you get with Cubase is great for vocals, v10 picked those delays on vox really well, super impressive. Congrats on 100k subs too, very inspirational and deserved.

[@Unders]

I love the feeling when something is so exciting in audio, You have to share it with someone. Because it doesn't happen that often. You know with yet another La2a who can get excited. But this is a real step forward.

[@Unders]

P.S Big fat congrats on 100k

[@NikolausBrocke]

Great video and great news from Steinberg. Steinberg is "the quality DAW" on the market. When I was younger I transcripted Solos (and chords) from Georg Benson, Mike Brecker, Brandford Marsalis and the like. Sometimes from really bad sounding club recordings. Man - that was a lot of work. With spectral layers now this is a piece of cake.

[@Haekki]

The Spectralayers 10 trial is finally up! Thanks a ton, Dom! I wouldn't be able to unmix drums like that without your video, as I wasn't aware of Spectralayers at all.

[@zweiklangmusic]

Congrats to 100k!!! Well deserved!

[@DomSigalas]

Thank you so much my friend ❤️

[@chillwalker]

This is really the biggest and most groundbreaking ISOLATION I ever worked with. Yesterday I took a 20 year old Demo...FROM A 20 YEAR OLD CASSETTE.... And "remixed it. With all the Noise cancelling and reverb cancelling features... The Song sounds like made yesterday now! Never ever in my professional life I was happier to pay 99 bugs for an update.

[@artysanmobile]

Wow, what a piece of music!

[@frommusiciantoartist]

That is absolutely unbelievable! Wow, thank you

[@SonicVision]

And this doesn't even touch on the audio photoshopping, noise reduction, forensics capabilities etc. Awesome stuff.

[@HomerNarr]

Like photoshopping but taking every element into a layer and separate them flawlessly. We might not even grasp what this will be able to do.

[@lashtal]

@@HomerNarr I was working on remastering a song just a few days ago that had a hi-hat with the most super annoying, and distracting frequency, ever. Literally song-ruining. Considering the recording was 20-something years old and the original mix files were out of the question, it would've been GREAT to isolate the annoying frequency using this program, just totally re-record the hits MYSELF... insert them, mix to taste, AND THEN perform the actual remaster proper. Would've had much more AMAZING results. This is incredibly controversial, as far as the M.E. field is concerned. More in the realm of Restoration for sure. Buuuut... there is an Art side to this Science, too.

[@chillwalker]

I am working on a Remastering Album and I am using SPL since Version 5. This new adition looks amazing!

[@danivalles7638]

I want to make a point about the null test: It nulls because the "other" stem is just The original mix minus the stems. That's totally fine and well done but it does not stop the artefacts in the stems themselves, just null them out when everything is summed.

[@Byron101_]

I'd love to see more SL workflow and tips´n tricks videos from you Dom!

[@beauhanister9318]

Very very helpful Dom. All your vids are. As a novice, it's so much easier to be shown. I know developers do their best - but manuals would appear so often to be written by Martians, thanks once again Dom.

[@HeislerAlex]

Today I bought Spectralayers 10 Pro. That's amazing. Thank you for the video!

[@Dane_Riazer]

This is Awesome I didn't know spectra-layers has gotten this good!!! definitely getting one! 🙌🏾

[@hajoherz7728]

Dear Dom, PLEASE make more videos about Spectralayers 10!

[@Opnn8d1]

This is world-changing in terms of audio editing.

[@magnuslervikmusic]

Awesome video! Spectralayer 10 seems just amazing....Steinberg just continues to deliver the highest quality of software! Also - Amazing song!!!!!

[@andivax]

Exactly. I have used RipX for splitting stereo mix to stems. And the remaster the records. 21th century!

[@bonhommepierre4074]

Excellent Dom, you make me buy this soft straigtht away this morning, after seeing your vidéo !!!! 🥰🥰😇

[@tomghzel]

This is awesome for when i do live recordings and get just a left right output from the mixer . This really changes everything. Plus i can't wait to get creative with this. Make some nice remixes of original songs

[@carllacy8551]

Thanks!

I purchased Spectral Layers because of your excellent introduction and your enthusiasm!

[@dani.papaya]

amazing good stuff🎉 congrats Cubase🎆 after a few hard weeks having 5 or more crashes each day on Macbook M1 2020 this gives hope🙏🏼

[@bill4510]

Awesome! In older versions the drum transients were chopped off ,after extraction.

[@daftdogjw]

Good stuff Dom.... can't wait to try the new version out as the improved unmixing processes seem very impressive :-)

[@szlagwort]

A huge leap forward from the SL9 version, which did poorly in professional mastering. Thanks Dom for the excellent information about the new version 10. 👍I already bought it ... 😀

[@dayzaudio]

This has been changing the game for all of us with huge analog mixing desks and not being forced to go fully in the box like Andrew Scheps is always still pushing for everyone due to workflow. Sitting blowing out stems for later "maybe" adjustments taking hours per song to do all the variations vs. now having all the unmix functions and tools out there, but this is getting incredible to allow us to thrive in the mainstream mixing world! Dom - always amazing, always uplifting too. - Dayz/David

[@dayzaudio]

also - PT religious users only, which I use it - but, they just never have a total clue as to the real software like Yamaha/Steinberg is always blowing out! Or their efforts with Sony Comp Lab w like Backbone...!

[@dayzaudio]

ps - @domsigalas thanks for not later in the video going for the easy... more cowbell 😂... the null test is insane to prove out the quality for the level of pro mainstream indie major level!

[@tobiasheinrich104]

That's a pretty cool song.

[@nofood1]

Extract acapellas from literally anything is crazy

[@E.T.musics]

İts very excited for people who works on cover songs. i cannot imagine the next steps. But this spectralayers always had its magic to me

[@TheMaltesefoodcritic]

blown away !

[@francisescaffre3386]

Always genius

[@Oleoproteus]

many thanx and yes please go the a specific presentation :) now trying on Mike Oldfield, 1976, Incantations part 4, 8:05 to 12:18, this part is full of harmonics... not so simple, no magic but it's a good beginning, maybe more flexibility to filter what we really want to get.

[@stereofidelic67]

My channel is all about remixing 1960s rock records using this technology, I use Izotope RX instead, but am intrigued how SL can isolate guitars and other. Usually these separation algorithms treat 'other' as the guitar part. But what none can do yet is separate multiple guitars or multiple vocal harmonies. You have to treat the entire guitar mix or vocal mix as one stem. Neither can it separate strings either.

[@nebstaism]

This is crazy 💯

[@SteveHarmony3]

Well, I’ll be… I never thought I’d see the day! 😂 Great demonstration. I hope to one day use this application to this degree. Thanks for sharing!

[@mannmusica]

Someone’s a muse fan? Awesome video🙌🏼

[@gennarosicurezza5107]

Hello Dom, just update from 9 to 10. Well I would have interest on how to use all options about this new specter layer properly Thank you very much I appreciate a lot

[@loukasavgerinos3990]

Very nice video. But with all these tools in nowadays, we don't get such good music like the "oldies". I think its time for us, as musicians, as producers, engineers, to have imaginations. We can not say about some new (virgin), but we, as a person, we dont have life experiences. Thanks again Dom, great video. Also is very good, if someone wants to study the tracks so he can learn from the songs he likes.

[@SimonCLees]

I don't usually comment on videos, but when I do...... man - thank you for bringing this to everyone's attention! Can you still do this stuff using the Spectral Layers that comes with Cubase 12? Thanks for all your great tips.

[@RubensHard]

Good, what a good discovery! thanks faithful follower of yours

[@NONIZYtv]

Thank you so very much for this ..

[@sonarusmusic2381]

Honestly Spectral layer full version should be available standard on the cubase pro versions

[@DomSigalas]

That would massively increase the price of Cubase though :)

[@B2svn465]

@@DomSigalas it's already expensive for the pro version

Wow sounds like spectral layers have nailed it

[@slimyelow]

I am impressed. Wow.

[@rolandmarckwort]

Wow, such a great feature!

[@chriscorry7290]

Sounds brilliant! - but I would love to know if it can do a similar job where parts have been recorded all together onto one stereo track at home rather than being professionally recorded in a studio. Thanks, Dom

[@synthzizer3324]

What's the difference between recording at home or studio? What is a professional studio? The people, the talent involved?

[@Luimeme2020]

Hey Dom, Many thanks for such extraordinary video content, so i would like very much if you could do a tutorial explaining how we can remove noise on vocal audio, in order to make it very clean, and ready to mix or mastering.

Uauuu steinberg is boss tanks Cigala 🎉😅

I did a test, a mix song, in the "best quality" mode, of a 3.15 minute song on 3 different apple computers: iMac 27 late 2013 - 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7 quad-core 32 gb ram , unmix time : 6.01 minutes MacBook Air M1 8 gb ram, time 3.53 minutes, MacBook Pro 16” 2019 2,3 Ghz Intel Core I9 , 16 Gb ram unmix time : 4.38 minutes

[@demixme_]

To be fair the hybrid transformer Demucs SL10 now has has been used for a while in the demixing and audio spearation community it's just that it's lived in applications like UVR5 & MVSEP. SL10 is very good though, but not quite the best. It currently lacks GPU support so it lacks some of the functionality and capabilities of UVR5 or using Demucs directly yourself.

[@synthcollector]

bravo Dom!!!!!

[@jayjoshi455]

Very nice topic with nice explanation. The same thing is also possible with isotope RX8 or RX9 plugin. And exactly same technology has been adopted here.

[@rldivide]

RX8-10 uses an older technology (similar to the one in SL7-9). SL10 uses a brand new, state of the art AI that provides the highest quality today.

[@kenr8171]

Keep ‘em coming. SL does magic, what else have you discovered?
