Beginners rely go overboard using notches when they discover them, but this video has come to save us all😊

[@scargoprods]

Powerful demonstration! It's the first time I hear those annoying frequencies so clearly, especially with the snare, and understand how to detect them.

[@GriffinPoole]

we don't wanna pull down all the frequencies, that's called SILENCE... my man joe, salute

[@DeltaWhiskeyBravo13579]

I think one of the earliest lessons I've learned in audio is just because you can do X doesn't mean you should. Another great tutorial Joe.

[@keeppressingkeeppraising]

Thank you Joe… always helpful to the Home Studio Sound Engineer… keep them coming to us… and Thank You Recording Revolution 😌

[@gh0stransist0r]

but it is really satisfying doing them notches even after 15 years. The best part of mixing.

[@napesdrk1174]

I believe this is how the "track seperation" program i use works. Moises, love this program. As a guitar junkie i use this program every other day.

[@dubwisevalsteely5714]

Maaaaan....Im always learning stuff from U....This was another great tutorial Joe

[@annasnesar]

That's super helpful 👍☺️

Coming from analogue to digital a couple of years ago, I really miss graphic equalisers with 64 or more bands.

[@DeltaWhiskeyBravo13579]

While this one isn't a graphic EQ, I have a Melda Production freeform EQ plug-in where you draw your curve for the whole audio spectrum.

[@Dave-Rough-Diamond-Dunn]

@@DeltaWhiskeyBravo13579 It sounds interesting. I might have it myself, I've got a bundle of plugins from Melda. I don't remember what half of the plugins I download do! 😁 Thanks! 🙂👍

[@DeltaWhiskeyBravo13579]

@@Dave-Rough-Diamond-Dunn welcome. Yep I've got a stack of Melda, entry level bundle that I paid to activate, Freeform EQ, MB delay, ultramaximizer limiter, etc. That Freeform EQ, literally use your cursor to click and drag, drawing the curve from 20-20K. Being Melda, there's a rabbit hole of edits you can do inside it too.

Very Useful! BRAVO!

Hi Joe..How should one approach to make a bassy/thick/heavy vocal (recorded in a proper studio) sound clean and upfront in a slow ‘reverby’ / ‘dreamy’ song?

[@TheNoladrummer]

Almost every snare has some weird overtones. I’ve had mine for so long, I’ve figured out which frequencies to cut and which to boost to let it sing with its natural voice. It takes trial and error.

[@MarkLantz65]

That has been my issue sweeping everywhere as a beginner! Any suggestions on how to determine the tones, or does it just take time? Do you have your songs somewhere? Great video Thanks!

[@GriffinPoole]

it takes time bro, look up ear training exercises... it'll get u where wanna go a lil faster, trust me...

[@steppabanton9753]

I can't access the 5 step mixing guide

[@malapauta]

joe what would be your response to the argument “everything when boosted on an eq sounds bad”

[@KariKauree]

Watch the whole video, you'll get your answer.

[@steppabanton9753]

He talked about that in the video.

[@ElectricDthing]

Jesus I downloaded the 5 step document and Ive been bombarded with 4 emails in 6 minutes, not cool

[@Carnie5life]

Looks like Joe wanted your email.

If got ya . I need this knowledge. And where do I get free sound bites and loops . I don't like paying for music . It should be free to the world .

[@GriffinPoole]

so i guess u don't like makin money from music either right?

[@KIDD80]

@@GriffinPoole that would be nice but I didn't get into this to be rich . Just to be if you understand me. Everyone in this field would love that check . But is that the real reason why! I would hope not brother.

[@GriffinPoole]

@@KIDD80 nobody said money was the reason for doin music, my point was that nobody should expect to make money from their music when they don't like payin for it themselves... maybe music should be free, but who doesn't wanna get compensated if possible? i mean, do u NOT think u can get paid & make a good living from ur music? that's the only other reason i can think of for not making an honest effort to get paid for what u love to do, especially if it doesn't feel like work... money is never the reason, but itz a damn-good reward... if there was a way to make serious money from music (and there is), why wouldn't a serious artist go for it if they knew it was possible? a doctor may love medicine & helping ppl, but they'll never say no to getting paid for it...

@@GriffinPoole yes I would love to but I would also love to share with everyone and sharing is free !
