Made a summary again. Thanks for the video :) 01:36 - Mistake 1: Using Surgical EQ Sweeps Too Much (=sweep with high q and high boost and listen for problems and turn down those frequencies - Solution: Don't overdo it. Personal note: Make them dynamic in ProQ3) 04:37 - Mistake 2: Not Using High and Low Pass. You get a muddy mix without these. Solution: Use lots of low and high pass filters to balance your mix. Don't be afraid of it sounding thin - it's about the context, not the individual instrument. 07:49 - Mistake 3: Not Using EQ Automation. Especially with Audio Recording (dynamic Track / things are changing throughout the recording - adapt the eq to the change) 10:03 - Mistake 4: Not Training Your Ears. Do it a couple of minutes a day. For example here: Soundgym / Quiztones. Personal note: Syntorial is great, too. 10:59 - Mistake 5: Only Using Subtractive EQ. Don't be afraid for additive EQ. 11:57 - Mistake 6: Only Using Digital EQs. Visual Eqs can destract. Use analog modelled EQs, too. There you focus on your ears more. And, analogue modelled EQs have more rounded / smoothed harmonics. Especially use it for additive EQs 15:31 - Mistake 7: Not Using Spectrum Analysers. Tip: Span by Voxengo. Use also reference tracks. Compare the spectrum graphs. Personal note: Metric A/B (VST Plugin) is great on this. 17:39 - Mistake 8: Relying on EQ (Before Sound Selection). Sound Selection can be a lot more effective - make sure you choose a working sound first. 18:58 - Mistake 9: Not Volume Matching Gain Staging. Loud sounds better. Therefore don't confuse your ears by comparing different volumes. 21:55 - Mistake 10: Not EQing in Context. Don't EQ in solo. Only do it on solo as a first run and then in conext. Also mix in hierachy from most important to less important. 24:17 - Mistake 11: Not Having an Intention. Trust your ears. Know what you want to achieve. Don't just EQ because for the sake of it.

A tips for people who are searching for the right kick sample or synth preset that comes directly from 3DFX here is this: Bring in all your samples / presets from a construction kit or etc in your daw in an empty scene. Mute every single channel, then solo each & compare to the other samples/ synth presets. When you found your top favorites: copy them to a Favorite folder of yours. So you know exactly where to look when you are writing your tracks. Now you know whats the best kick sample or which synth preset mixes the best with which !!!This will save you a bunch of time both for planning your mix & get better mixes quicker! Thank me laterz! // 3DFX out !!! 👍

Tip number one is the most frustrating one for me! I ALWAYS scream at the screen when KZbinrs incessantly encourage surgical EQ when they themselves don't know how to use it! You only really need to surgically use EQ if you can clearly hear a resonant frequency that needs cutting. You shouldn't have to search for it.

i do this for my grid leads if i got a lot going on and i just needs some space so the chaos isnt to muddy or cluttered. But i too made the mistake of doing too much. Now i will try and find some horrible sounds boosted like in the video if i have two lead tracks in similar or same key frequencies and i will do one cut on each where it sounded most crap but not so narrow a curve, and only if it sounds like soup in mono. for me its just for clarity and making frequency pockets for other stuff not to "improve the sound" which I'm certainly not doing not that naive anymore but its to improve the mix as i will always do it not in solo

As always a really valueable video, Will. For the surgical EQ i advice not to boost the frequencies to identify bad frequencies. As you stated already, you will mostly have a bad sounding frequency, even if you only boost it for a few dB. The more accurate way is to listen to the frequencies on the flat curve. FabFilter ProQ allows you to listen to that certain frequency by clicking on that little headphone icon, so you can only hear that frequency where you are with your dot. You then sweep through the whole spectrum (while still on that flat curve, no boosting or cutting), and then you will hear the frequencys that cause problems. These frequencies can be then lowered to the desired amount. Another tip would be to use a dynamic EQ, like TDR Nova for example. Keep up the good work! :)

Good tips for sure. Regarding EQ level matching, it's better to adjust the output of the EQ itself rather than inserting a gain tool. You avoid unnecessarily using an insertion slot and also avoid unnecessarily using CPU cycles. This 2nd point is important for those running DAWs on modest computers.

Great video , I was curious about making drastic cuts off the low end on tracks that didn’t need it , and after watching this I realize that its ok as long as it works in context . There are times with I need the low end for an acoustic guitar to sound full during an intro and knowing how to automate the eq for cutting out unnecessary low end is very helpful when kick and bass come into the spectrum . Great video again ! Thank you :)

It's funny, I have always used the fabfilter proQ to do my EQ cuts early in my chain, but then I always use an SSL EQ to do my additive EQ towards the end of my chain because I just loved the color that the SSL added. This wasn't a very conscious choice based on advice I'd been given or anything, I just liked how it sounded. Then today I see this video and you're saying "Use a parametric EQ for reductive, and an analog modeled for additive" and breaking down why that makes sense to do. It just makes me feel good about having trusted my instincts on that.

I've been making electronic music since '92 and I've sorta learned by way of 'school of hard knocks' (i.e. no professional tutoring but just figuring things out), I've learned a lot about writing a tune that sounds good in a final mix is almost primarily based on the sounds you start with, so this was a very important thing to point out, imo. As well, I also don't use my eyes much at all except on compressors where I'm looking for just a little bit of interaction of the audio with the compressor. If I want flattening and 'loudening' of something, these days I actually use very subtle distortion or saturation effects instead of compressor/limiter just to round off the tips of peaks instead of changing the entire dynamic feel of the instrument. That said, the other important thing I learned just by reading around after the advent of the internet is that mixing (not eq'ing) by subtraction is far more effective because then you create headroom and then you can boost everything back up in a meaningful way. I'm not a master at any of this, to be sure, but...I reiterate: writing your song where each voice has it's place in the choir, so to speak, makes the entire process much less of a hassle. You can't polish a turd, as they say, so start with pretty cool and colorful rock, throw it in the tumbler for a minute and polished it off into a lovely piece of geode. :) Also, I do think using mostly/only your ears is extremely important. I meet folks who can't even properly chop a sample without looking at it and I'm like, 'Dude, does it sound good where you have it? No? Why is that?' And then they go and look at the sample and I'm like, "You literally can't hear that it's dropping too late and that you need to push the chop point up further on the sample?' Music is audio. If we expected or taught painters to paint by listening to how the paint hit the canvas, we'd all agree that's insane. Music is sound, ears are the way we know what's happening.

I have a EQ tip, when using a 2 band EQ for filter sweep effects with automation. Make sure you use a second 2 band EQ automation to counteract points where the frequency peaks to high. I do this all the time and it's a great effect to learn with automation you can create so really nice effects to the selected sound.

a topic i don't think i've seen covered is, knowing which EQ slope is right for the job & how each one affects the sound (steep vs smooth, -6db, -12db, etc.) for example, when cutting lows under 125Hz or so for guitars or chords, should you use a steep or smooth filter? also, i've noticed on some kick drums where I apply a steeper HPF, it sometimes causes clipping & i've never known why. always look forward to your uploads man, take care!!
@EDMTips
@EDMTips 11 ай бұрын
A more gentle slope results in a more natural sound. So it's often better for real instruments or vocals if you pursue a more natural style. Steeper slopes are better suited for synthetic sounds where any frequencies below the fundamental are just rumble and mud that you don't want. Appreciated man! Take care too! :)

Great video, very useful. One thing I remind myself of is, let the music breath, and if there is resonance I always cut, I almost never boost any frequency. Or in mastering, there is a total other situation. When you have to let sound, everything balanced and great. But then I use a Sontec or GML kinda parametic EQ.

​@Rippley Nobody has to use timestamps if provided to jump through things, it's entirely optional - but it will help avoid re-hashing subjects a viewer has already seen discussed dozens of times (which many of these tips might be, but that depends on the viewer). They can help to jump to the next subject immediately instead of aborting the video, when a subject is just a rehash for a viewer. Also, timestamps also help finding things again later if required. There's literally no downside and lots of upsides.

Excellent video! I agree with all of these. As far as EQ plugins, I also use the Fabfilter Pro-Q3, which is my favorite. My other EQ plugin is the Waves GEQ Graphic Equalizer. It has 30 bands, and it's great for using your ears to hear the frequencies that you're cutting or boosting. It's $30, but WELL worth it!!!

I do find Tip Nr.10 the most important one. If the EQ adjustments are not being done in context to the rest, it is very easy to make the wrong decisions by cutting or adding too much on a certain frequency... simply because it might otherwise sound weird while being played on its own. I've got another tip, which is the (subtle) use of multiband compressors to chance the EQ character of a specific track in the mix. I find it to work especially very well when defining the character of a vocal. And I do prefer to use analogue modelled ones then, so that you completely have to refer to what you are hearing in context to the mix and not what you might see in a diagram.

@@EDMTips Thanks 😄I had an almost invisible mud in a Splice beat battle track that I didn't know where it was coming from. It could of been the reverb tail I put on the heavy kick (which I put only on frequencies above 200 Hz), which otherwise sounded pleasant. I guess getting super clean clear mixes is a must to get higher votes when competing. Due to time constraints the whole mix was a bit of a disaster on that last battle.
