Definitely B. It sounds to me like there are more low mids and low frequencies on the kick, snare and toms

The reason why fast attack might sound good is not because of distortion (although its nice), ie, limiters are faster than compressors but dont distort as much so its not the atk time thats responsible for distortion, its the gain reduction curve of a given plugin that is (and more often than not, its the release that will give noticable distortion, not atk). The actual reason people miss out on, is that the click of a drum is usually within the first 0 to 5 ms of the sound (its a very small noise click before or sometimes with the first transient). If you compress incredibly fast at a good amount, you have gain reduction starting at the click, meaning you will make the click louder and the following info quieter. Its counter intuitive but you can increase the attack of a drum this way and make it cut in the mix.

i have to say mixing live drums has always been the bane of my existence anytime i've ever tried it. it really is a learned skill vs intuitive (for me). My intuitions don't get me there. Following your guide step by step. Literally making the same exact EQ adjustments as a baseline, but then modifying later due to genre and preferences. I have a drum sound that I'm proud of for the very first time and I think holds up to records. It's a less is more approach that's never really clicked until now... so thanks, and I look forward to more of your videos

That's awesome! Great to hear the video helped 👍 Drums are very challenging to mix, especially when the recording is of a live kit, so I definitely feel the whole bane of my existence thing haha.

Question Since you're using the most of the plugins on every single track (except Q3), why didn't you do the process on the Drum Bus? And are you still gonna do something in the drum bus after using your method? Cause 1176 and transient shaper could be on a send with all the top drums except crash, and we could have a separate mix for the Kick

Is this also work for virtual drum kit? I kinda like the natural raw sound of the plugin itself. And giving too much compression just ruin the entire color of the kit. Any ideas or tips for me?
@sageaudio
@sageaudio 16 күн бұрын
The phase is probably already accounted for in a plugin (but might be worth checking just in case). As you mentioned, you'll likely need less compression, since the samples used already have some processing.

Is the fast-attack compression something that only works with the blue 1176 or will it also work with other compressors like, say, an SSL E/G channel strip compressor?
@wyrlismike
@wyrlismike 6 ай бұрын
SSL has a fast attack switch for the compressor, sometimes fast attack is the way to go

why'd you pan each one to the left for checking phase stage ? did you checking snare and kick phase by panning them too ? Could't keep everything in centre and check phase relations ?

He's checking how the r ch affects the left ch. Correlation. If you leave everything in the center you would not be measuring what the difference is. Rewatch that segment, you'll understand.

You won't have phase issues on synthetic instruments. This demonstration was for microphones on drums. Very common to have phase issues using multiple microphones on the same source. He's showing how to fix that issue.​@@amirpashafatemi9473

Needs way more individual track work. definitely would not cut it for a modern commercial mix. Individual reverbs on close mics? No parallel compression? Very meh.

Did you expect a hyperpop intro featuring a screaming 15-year-old in Ableton, claiming to reveal the "secret" to mixing pre-mixed kick samples and offering a free ULTRA_R1dd1m_Bassfuck.preset as a reward for getting through the first minute of a video without a video game on the top half of the screen?
