Thanks for bringing this back Bobby. I missed this series, it's my favourite on the channel! I have no idea how large your backlog of submissions is (and I don't want to take away someone else's chance for review), but I'd be up for sending in a second submission now I've learned some new skills! Also, that last guy REALLY can play, super dope style as well...

[@Yanthungbemo]

Cheers

[@GOHpsycho2]

I've had all of the very same issues in the past, thank you for showing how easily these common mistakes can be cleared up...

[@jani14jani]

The last one sounds like proggy Arch enemy. I like it.

I love this series!

[@WickedDrums]

Yes! My exact question answered finally, it's like you are reading my mind. Great job explaining this topic so nicely. 😎🤘🏼

That second track was sick af

[@Yanthungbemo]

Thank you, Bobby!

[@sisyphushappyxvx]

Thanks for the thoughts, Bobby - my song was the first one. I've been working on some newer mixes and though I've been using parallel drum compression for some time, I've only just started using the clipper on the snare and saturation on the drum bus. I will take all of this advice in earnest - thanks!

[@mattwhite399]

I really liked your song. Awesome vibe and energy!

[@sisyphushappyxvx]

@@mattwhite399 Thanks, man! I just put out a new EP this week - you can check it out everywhere.

I'm gonna need the Spotify link for submission 2 and 4

[@Yanthungbemo]

Not sure if you meant me (no. 4) but if you're interested, it's up on my channel. No Spotify unfortunately.

Hey Bobby love your content, I'm wondering if you could do a breakdown on will Putney specifically his works with Thy art is murder Holy war. I can't for the life of me seem to get a mix anywhere as clear or as loud, its the loudest album I've ever heard. Why? And how?

[@CrushingAxes]

Nice mixes! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@theperiidot]

Yup. Nothing wrong with a square wave *so long as* it isn't crushing anything Also I'm a new viewer and very much appreciate the free pdf, I've been trying to mix a track for a couple months and only just starting to realise the things you talked about. Sadly I need to find time to set up my guitar before I can record the rest of the arrangement. Also, do you recommend splitting your drum sounds into different tracks, or would I be fine to keep using the plugin's own mixer? I don't really want to have to go through Native Instruments support to fix my missing kontakt routing button if I don't have to, since I only use it for my drum library. 😅

[@wgus3324]

Were would you send in submissions in the future?

[@FrightboxRecording]

Directions are in the video's description.

[@jessepaul8819]

Bobby I’ve got a question on this subject. I noticed the waveform on one of the songs is just a block almost, with a few cracks. (Not a waveform with just the peaks chopped off) Is it ok to slam a track this hard?? Will it sound thin and trashy by slamming a clipper or limiter so hard with track volume?? Help Bobby!!

[@jessepaul8819]

What should a proper “mastered” waveform really look like Bobby??!

[@codycreepcore]

@@jessepaul8819 I think sometimes it can be deceiving to look at a waveform. Sometimes the level of zoom you have can great affect the look of the waveform. I would try and learn about LUFS and LU measurements to determine your loudness and dynamics.

[@jessepaul8819]

I’m making sure my Lufs are right. -14. I just want to know how hard to slam into the dynamics. I clip lightly first w Jst Clip, then just ever so slightly hit the Waves L2 limiter after that. NOW….how hard to hit that clipping/limiting wall. I know, just before distortion…but I can slam it pretty hard in my daw, but when I convert it to mp3 with the highest quality settings??? Doesn’t sound as good

[@sevenstone1091]

First one gives me a AC/DC Escape Plan vibe lol. Pretty cool.
