Hi Friend, while most Mixers don’t mix in Mono, they do very often check in Mono. Understanding the basic concepts of LCR is a great tool to add to your mixing arsenal! Please check out the video and please give me your opinion and share what you do! Do you sue LCR or Mix in Mono?

I do both. During the choruses I LCR and during the intro and verses I do like you said in the video about panning 50% on each side. Also I mix in mono during the initial mix set up before doing the EQ stage and then check often in mono to check the low end and so forth.

@@Producelikeapro I have to agree with David! I would love to see an update to this video with a response to the recent videos Dan Worall has made addressing the various issues inherent in LCR and Stereo mixing! I feel like he shifted the conversation by introducing the concept that side elements drop in relative volume when shifted to mono, meaning that LCR mixes inherently break when summed to mono. Even if they still sound OK, the engineers vision for the ideal balance is lost unless you’re actively mixing in a way that works for both stereo and mono simultaneously. Phase is of course as much of an issue as ever, but that’s not the only way summing to mono can break an LCR mix. I’d love to know your thoughts on the topic!
@stevenrempel5 жыл бұрын
EXCELLENT advice as always. Another tip a guy I worked with gave me (just something to try, no rules) is to start off your initial quick sweep mix (leveling, pannings) in mono, really speeds up that initial process- when dealing with a dense mix (metal especially). We would do this very quickly like quick 5 minute pass after you've got your session fully setup. Quick pass in mono, and do your panning and leveling in this pass, you'll be amazed at how much accuracy mono panning and leveling will speed up the rest of your moves through the mix. thanks again !!!

Thank you for this and for all your videos! I'll admit, I used to mix without high-pass filtering because I was afraid of losing low end. You have opened my eyes and ears with your videos and, ever since I started high-pass filtering, I have realised that not doing it was precisely the reason why I was losing low end in the first place! You always give out a lot of pieces of great advice, but if I had to pick the one that totally changed my mixes, it's the high-pass filtering tip. And to anyone who is currently not high-pass filtering, get in the habit. It'll change everything. Thank you, Mr. Huart!

LCR isn’t merely assigning parts/instruments strictly left, center, or right. It’s a time-honored way to pan individual tracks, but you still end up with elements all over the stereo field, including the infinite number of in-between positions. Think of a stereo pair of drum overheads. LCR says pan those mics full left, full right. The kit ends up spread across the stereo field, and the width of that field is determined by how the mics are placed. Snare will be centered, while a tom might be off-center, even though the mixer is adhering to LCR. Think also about a two-mic acoustic guitar recording. Assign the mics full left, full right and you get a nice stereo spread rather than the guitar assigned only to left, center, or right. Just seems that too many folks don’t really understand what LCR really is and what it’s advantages are. If you take a mono source and try to place it 30 degrees left, for example, the only person that will ever hear that source at 30 degrees will be the one sitting perfectly between the speakers. It’s going to move around for everyone else depending on how far off-axis they happen to be. LCR can provide a more stable and predictable image, while still using the entire stereo field including the “in-between” position.

Thanks for this great summary Warren! There were songs when I spent a lot of time mixing in mono on a small Behritone speaker at a very low level. It was amazing to hear how well all the instruments sat in the mix after switching to the stereo nearfields. The downside is that a mono signal is not that inspiring ... so it's kind of redemptive when you switch to stereo, haha! :-) But mixing in mono definitely helps to translate the song into real world listening conditions, for instance a car or a party where you listen to music in a less than perfect stereo environment.

This is such a helpful episode. I’ve been mixing for several years now and I don’t rightly remember where I heard that it is always better to mix entirely in mono. So that’s what I’ve done all along, right or wrong. When I start arranging a new track I slap a mono utility on the master channel and it never comes off for one second until I am happy with the mono mix. When I’m happy with the mix I bypass the mono utility to listen to the track for the first time in glorious stereo. Of course some tweaking is in order, but usually only minor tweaking. Now however, after watching this vid I’m not so sure this is the best way. Maybe I should mix in stereo and frequently switch to mono to check for phasing issues. Maybe I’ll give it a try on my next track.
@BobSell6 жыл бұрын
Hey Warren, another great video! You always put out great stuff! I love your technique of using time adjuster for phase alignment. The thought of flipping the phase (180 degrees) with a plugin and then decide if it’s better or worse was always a little flawed to me. What if your two tracks are out of phase by 90 degrees? Reversing the phase puts you at 270. Still out of phase 90° from the zero point. In this case, you won't hear a difference by doing a listening comparison! The tone will be thin but obviously not as much as 180. We’ve all had great success using a plug-in to flip the phase (180) on something like a snare that has a top and bottom mike pointed toward one another. However, I get better results using a sample delay to more precisely phase align the waveforms of the 2 mics. Thanks again for the great videos and for all you do!

Hi Warren! Great Tutorial as always! Just one thing about the 3 Channel Cinema Setup (3 Ch recording) you mention at the end of the Clip. For Cinemas with their large screens and wide Auditoriums, this made perfect sense: Other than in a typical audio-setup at home, there are listeners in the theatre, sitting WAAAAY off the sweetspot and e.G. pretty close to the right speaker. If dialog comes through both speakers at equal power, the more you go to the right speaker, the more the dialog seems to come from there. (This is due to two facts: 1. The signal from the right speaker reaches you at a higher level, 2. The 'Law of the first Wavefront' tells the brain to locate the source there.) Thus the dialog would seem to wander from the picture (when using L/R instead of L/C/R) which is annoying. This is remedied by placing a third speaker behind the screen, getting all the dialog (and center signal.) See: Makes absolute sense for Cinemas. Best, Ralf

I do hear what you mention at the mall. I use the mall music speakers for navigational purposes. Ha! I used to use the sound of the fountains but they took them out. Recently started testing out audio description headphones in the movie theaters. Sometimes there will be no description, but the noise canceling headphones still let me adjust the volume of the rest of the sound. I often turn the over all volume all the way down letting the headphones protect my hearing from the physical pain of the volume inside the theater without headphones. This makes for a more enjoyable experience. I still can still hear everything, and just not have as much ear pain and then also still be able to find my way home afterwards. I used to go to the movies all the time several years ago, and it didn't seem this painful. I know I don't have any "magical powers" of compensation when it comes to hearing, it's just a development of skill. The extreme volume in the theaters lately is kind of horrific. I take emergency earplugs everywhere I go now, and I'm not exactly a snowflake about it, but even those are not enough by themselves at a theater.

Great tips. Ya, checking your mixes in mono is key. I discovered for myself that phase inverting one side (e.g., right) of a mono low-end instrument such as a bass guitar in the stereo field can create some nice effects: the bass appears more in the center and has a deeper low end; however, if the mix is now checked in mono, there will be no bass--complete phase cancellation. It was a blunt lesson for me that something can sound good out of phase in the stereo field but become dull/quieter or even non-existent when it is collapsed into mono.

Then in sections where I want to bring the sides of the bus closer together, I can automate in the plugin with the stereo width dialed down and then back to 100% for the wide sections. I could just automate the panning in Pro Tools, but somehow this seems easier to me.

My understanding is that early stereo mixing consoles often had a pan switch with just hard r/c/l as 3 options - no incremental pan available at all. I always felt late 60's early 70's records always had super hard-panned stuff compared to later music, from rock to folk scare stuff. Maybe a result of hard panning in combination with comparitively sparser arrangements. And the fascination with newfangled "hi-fi" systems.
@JonnyKaine5 жыл бұрын
Yes, a lot of that 60s stuff has pretty crazy panning with the vocals on one side or the other etc. In some ways it makes it more "psychedelic" I think because there's such separation and on speakers I think those records still sound good. on headphones it can be a bit offputting.
@plaidgadjo Жыл бұрын
Hello Warren, than you so much for these videos! I was having issues with LCR panning and applying reverb... I noticed that two of the reverb plugins I have, have zero output to the opposite speaker when I have a (soloed) guitar panned all of the way to one side (which is unnatural as a room would reflect a little opposite the source). The Inspirata reverb plugin didn't do this, but the Sunset Sound and Abbey Road Plates did. I figured out on the SS that if I turn the "width" knob to "0", I hear a little reverb in the opposite speaker and it sounds like it should - seems totally counterintuitive. For example, if I wanted that early VH sound I would pan a guitar hard, but then need to set the "width" knob to "0" on the chamber or it would all just stay on the same side. I discovered that the Abbey Road Plates has a "crosstalk" lever that does the same. I didn't realize it was happening until I soloed a channel. I thought something was wrong with the plugin at first. This would mean that if ttwo guitars where panned L&R right in a bus, their reverbs would only stay on their respective sides? Does this sound correct or do you think there an issue on my end? It's the same whether I'm using Studio One or Luna, BTW. Thanks!

Just a thought: the great band NomeansNo as a trio, have their bass track (quite an overdriven sound) panned slightly left and gat to the right to balance the track. With trios this seems to work, so you don't have one guitar panned left or right, unbalancing the mix, with bass down the middle...I know it's generally verboten to pan the bass, but for some set-ups, it seems to work better.
