How A Phase Scope Can Help Your Mixes

[@mevtherenegade]

I've NEVER had anyone explain it this clearly! Thank you!!

[@EsaiiTaylor]

Best video on phase scope I've seen ever.

[@aleksamrkela831]

Yup. In addition to the phase scope, reading the correlation meter is very important. If it's regularly dropping below zero, you will definitely have phase anomalies.

[@ilyeshmusic]

And mixes that have more separation.

[@m-ducemusicgroup]

BROOOOOOOO, THANK YOU So much for doing this one... It's crazy, NO one has done this properly like you.. Cheers.

[@earledaniels4539]

This is a very handy tool to have on your main bus stereo output but so many people don't know how to interpret the results and more importantly, how to fix any imbalance or phase issues with the mix. Dave, maybe you can do a follow up video on basic imbalance and phase issue fixes, cheers

[@nota76]

David! Thank you for such Great explanation!!!

[@uriel-heavensguardian8949]

My Engineer has one of these and its awesome!! Love how these help engineers mix and master. Awesome video! Love the explanation of this device!!!

[@cashsounds3704]

Thank you definitely came earlier than expected!!! 👌🏾

[@mixbustv]

Because I knew everyone would have wanted it and filmed it the same day 😄

[@patrickalphenaar]

Yea i love my Clarity M for exact the same reason you awesomely explain in this great vid! Thanks and Cheers

[@thestreetdisciple3955]

Wow, great tip. All of your videos are so helpful even if it's 2 minutes long

[@VincentKearney1967]

You're awesome David Thank you so much

[@TheSakuraGumiLTD]

Very interesting!!! Definitely worth getting one of these. Thank you for explaining! Completely understand it now

[@PlagueRat-]

Awesome explanation! Sick song on your outro too 🤘

[@w-hisky]

Thaaaank you very much, David! 🙏 This was very interresting, indeed. Did not know what to make of these readings until now. ✌️

[@wilcandou]

Nice clip... Very helpful... Heart of value for helping us to understand.

[@LeeDaHitman]

Thanks for doing the video about the phase scope

[@mixedbyszymii]

Didn't expect you to make a video so quickly :D NICE!

[@mixbustv]

I filmed beforehand cause I knew people would want to see it 😄

[@allenconstantine]

Thanks for sharing this!

[@Ahowe61993]

Ohh yeah thanks David now we're learning

[@Somedei]

Thank you very much David 🙏🏻

[@arkistriph1]

Thanks for this, have a good one.

[@PeaKock-be]

Again, great video! Thank you David!

[@atarifalcon]

Thx......👍. Now i know how to use it in the right way.

[@ecmarcelo]

Thaaaaanks ! 🫂 👍

[@mattiazuliani]

Love videos Abt tools. Pls more!!!

[@Middlestepofficial]

I've been using the Voxengo Correlometer for a while now. Never knew there's a hardware. Are there any benefits from using the hardware except just for external real-time monitoring?

[@mixbustv]

The ones I listened. First this one has unique metering not present anywhere else (i.e. I thought I'd never use the radar, I was wrong I use it all the time) accuracy, customization, and most important real estate on the screen amd it's always up. I'm hooked

[@mccrayvideo2]

Thanks alot You the best !!!!!

[@sophocle4427]

Super ! thank you

[@HUERITO818]

Can you do one on how to read the RTA!! Please 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@artofabstract8234]

So... This.. Was helpful! :P Thanks mate! ;)

[@dami55518]

Does a vectorscope helps you define if there are some phase issues in the frequency spectrum? Or is the vertical axis of the scope just the volume of the mix?

[@runemidsun]

Thanks 🤘

[@andrewrwhitfield]

Thanks!

[@mixbustv]

Thank you for the support Andrew!!

[@henshin5369]

thanks❤

[@SydneyValette]

Would a wide mix look like this on a scope or is this one particularly mono?

[@mixbustv]

What's shown here it's pretty much universal, the differences are in other details so yes but also I don't know all of them

[@chocomalk]

This guy is a boss

[@obiwantschernobyl5650]

That was actually very helpful. Thanks man!

[@stompinknowledge3968]

Just had my Clarity M arrive in the mail after watching your explanations! But... any advice on how I can connect it to a UA Volt interface? It seems I'm gonna need some kind of aux adapter at least.

[@mixbustv]

I suggest connecting USB

[@stompinknowledge3968]

@@mixbustv I'm out of USB ports umfortunately - but I just found out that an analog to digital converter will do the trick! Thanks for your reply 🙏

[@diztriq3394]

Th so much

[@djlegend-vm4wl]

NICE

[@relaxmax6808]

Good... A video that comes when I realize phase problems on my tracks, I was wondering how I was going to fix this problem.

[@mixbustv]

Well that'd be mixing 😄

[@relaxmax6808]

@@mixbustv Using almost no microphones, I thought I would at least be exempt from these problems! well....😂 I'm beginning to realize that this may be the number one problem I have. Cool ! a new thing to work on!🤣

[@marcinkozlowski2880]

👍

[@danymalsound]

So basically, you COULD apply this to multi-mic'd guitar cabs, drums, etc. instead of having to pull of phase correlation plugs (which is killer)?

[@mixbustv]

No, it won't be useful for what you're thinking

[@danymalsound]

@@mixbustv I'll stick to waves in phase for that, then lol Still a cool piece!

[@inmemoryofin]

You can temporarily pan the mics hard L and R then use a phase meter to check their interaction. The downside is that you lose any context to the actual mix while checking it out. Otherwise yeah something like InPhase is the better solution if you have it.

[@ramtin-iviil]

There is one question If you use of Stereo imager,than you have phase correlation between -1 to 0 What's the solution to have a good correlation (between 0 to+1) AFTER Stereo imaging? And other question: What is the best LUFS of finished mix and also how much LUFS should be your track after Mastering?

[@mixbustv]

1) if you're talking about the mix, unless you have no drums, you probably widened things too much. You can try recovering with something like DrMS, or Basslane but yeah. 2) There's no best LUFS for a mix. If anything you'd look at crest factor and peak. And for a master, whatever LUFS a given song sound the best. If you're looking for one fits all answer, there are none in music.

[@sachii.k1802]

So if a mix is out of phase, does that mean it will not translate to well on mono speakers, e.g nightclub speakers??.. Will it sound weak?

[@mixbustv]

If a mix is totally out if phase will sound like ass stereo and there will be complete silence in mono. Watch my videos on mono compatibility to understand when and how and in what elements mono compatibility is important

[@YngHstlr]

🙏

[@robertstevens1766]

How to read "This" phase scope.

[@mixbustv]

As said in the video.

[@ilyeshmusic]

Why is out of phase so bad ? Who listens signal in mono ? Even clubs pa, or festival pa is stereo..

[@mixbustv]

Because regardless when, how and how often it is played in mono (which is still a lot,, and no many pa are mono, but it's not just those) out of phase is a SYMPTOM of bad mixing and it sounds like ass in stereo too because it means you have a weak center channel (in stereo, in mono it just disappears) and while it's perfectly fine for a few effects, it is not for the main elements

[@ilyeshmusic]

@@mixbustv hm..yeah...but try to put pads into outofphase...then the center for other instruments, vox, lead becomes way clearer....why is that sign of bad mixing (despite mono thing compatibility)? Great channel, keep it on with good work 🤟😂
