@@JCrashB +1 definitely interested in help with animation, there's a solid wealth of info on audio engineering, video compositing, etc... but animating seems to still be the wild west of media production, no standard workstation. Seems many production houses (like south park studios) have made their own in-house solutions, etc.... I am betting Michael used an outsourced web-based solution, I have heard of web services that will even take a text document or an audio narration and create an animation to match the content, for pretty cheap, and very quickly. But they tend to have a certain "look" that is non-negotiable (cartooney, reminiscent of flash animation, and that look is all over youtube "infographic" type videos). Kinda makes you wonder where the difficulty lies, if those web services can be so efficient.

There are various aspects to the "sound" in the terms of mixing, but polarity and phase issues were such topics which honestly speaking there's not a single person who could explain any easier and yet give even free to use tools for us to work upon and sharpen our skills. So proud to be a viewer right from the beginning Michael, its always a pleasure to see you come up with some really tough topics and explain us with utter simplicity. Wishing you good luck in your endeavours, and keep elevating the "sound" game a notch higher 😉

@inthemix
@inthemix 3 жыл бұрын
Excellent idea. I’d also further that by adding that even when you measure and place microphones correctly (which you really should if we are going for perfection!) sometimes microphones will interpret a signals polarity as the opposite. This can also happen with reversed wires too. So to add to Mark’s comment, measure and then double check!

In The Mix have you tried another plugin by Voxengo called PHA-979? It’s worth checking out because it not only aligns the waveforms but can also rotate the phase. Another oldie but a goodie is one called Pi by Sound Radix that may help correct phase issues. An oscilloscope is a handy tool to have too. Great video and very clear explanation. Thanks! 👍

Producing for about 8 years now and started just a few days ago to dive into phase(cancellation). You had a great timing there! Got a little question: How would you rate the relevance of taking phase into consideration compared to other "techniques" like gainstaging, compression, eq? It seems to me like it can make a huge difference, but I may overrate it.

This is really helpful. Thank you for this video. One question though, should I be checking this on a whole mix or just on sounds that are recorded with multiple mics or sounds that sound too similar? I tried using the correlometer on a whole mix and it seems that some parts of my song especially in the pre-chorus where I have this specific bass, the correlometer says it has a bad phase but doesn't really sound bad to me, I'm new to producing so I don't really know much but as far as I can hear, it doesn't sound "wrong"? Should I try to fix it? The reason I'm asking is that, I maybe be not noticing something wrong because I don't know that it is wrong because I'm new and have an untrained ear. When I started learning about mixing and all these nitty gritty details, it kind of become so tiresome and it honestly takes away the fun. I felt like I just want to make music and focus in production but mixing is part of it and it seems there's no escape to it 😅. Anyways, would appreciate any advice. Thank you. I hope you have a nice day.
