Wojtek seems like such a gentle quietly spoken person, quite ironic that he mixes some of the most brutal sounding mixes🤘🤘🤘

Nice to see someone getting you to up your volume. I spent years trying to match my mixes to lowered reference tracks and then spending hours altering finished mixes so that the loudness would match. Don’t smash your mix but bring that balance up with a limiter and some light clipping and you’ll be able to hear those changes so much better. And your loudness ends up baked into the mix

@HertzDrums 2 ай бұрын

Great to know that you are doing the same. For me, it's obvious that you hear more in the mix when it's louder, and I've been doing this for years

mixing is subjective please, do more instruction videos on pre-mixing: raw recorded signals → processing them to 'mix ready' tracks

If you hear a mix with issues enough times it becomes the normal to your ears. I have dealt with this before that's why the next day you think how did I not hear that problem it's obvious but only to fresh ears is it obvious. Great vid!

You are right. It's very common. I always tty to listen my mixes with"fresh"ears in the morning.

@Laserus 2 ай бұрын

I have a question about this. When you are setting the snare and kick you are not adding in overheads and room mics, which will add to the volume of the kick and snare? Snares specifically poke a lot in overheads and rooms. I tried this technique and was able to get a descent balance, but had to adjust the overheads and rooms by ear.

@HertzDrums 2 ай бұрын

I adjust without ov and rooms. Rooms if they recorded properly thay already should have good balance between kick and snare - so nothing changing here. Ov I add later by ear.

@Blackstaffordstudios 2 ай бұрын

Hey guys I have a question. After setting the drum levels you bring in the vocal. You don’t mute the drums & bass when bringing in the vocal, so you’re setting that level by ear? Or do you still look at the VU meter when doing so? Thanks! Great video!

@HertzDrums 2 ай бұрын

Hey. Yes im using my ears with the vocals. I don't look at the meter.

@FlakAttak66 Ай бұрын

It seems like the tracks you're balancing in this song are already processed with compression etc. I just tried this method with raw unprocessed tracks and it didn't turn out very well :D is this method only meant to be used with already processed tracks?

@HertzDrums Ай бұрын

Yes, you are right. It works when the tracks are processed-I can't imagine achieving the right balance when the tracks are not ready for that

@bbender76 2 ай бұрын

I must be doing something wrong. If I get my kick to -7 on the VU it is almost always near or at clipping on the kick channel.

'm not sure if I understand you correctly. Are you thinking about the stage when we make it as loud as the reference? Or kick+ bass?

@YigitDiri 2 ай бұрын

Wont watch someone who use vu meter on digtal domain and gives exact numbers in dBfs scale when we know it is not the same thing with percieved loudness in 2024. -4 dB bass -6dB kick uh? In which genre, in which audios… 👎🏻

@HertzDrums 2 ай бұрын

This is just a quick way to arrive at a good starting point from which you can further build your mix

@YigitDiri 2 ай бұрын

@@HertzDrums vu meter is volume unit which is calculated by electrical signal voltage, any kick in -6 dB will sound different in terms of loudness. If you put bass to -4dB it also will have different percieved loudness level. In any cases you have to listen and anchor it by yourself to somewhere. But the dBfs level is not cant be the reference between 2 audio signals in terms of balance.

@@HertzDrums ıf you want to give exact numbers at least you have to explain also clip to zero technique so there wont be that much percieved loudness difference by micro dynamics etc..
