Wow. 30 minutes of pure gold dust. Watched so many of your videos and they're really improving my music production. This one in particular, about using effects properly, is an absolute game changer. Big Thanks and keep up the great work.

I love the way you stay so concise and move through it with intention. I’ve been following you since Garage days. You always stay on point and have never changed your process. Even when you were working in GarageBand it was almost identical to what you are doing now in logic. I think that just goes to show that you found a process that absolutely works. Even though I work in logic, I actually took your GarageBand mixing course. I almost didn’t because I had graduated to logic. I trusted when you said that it would be applicable in any DAW. It was by far the best thing I did for myself and I still go back and learn from it. The way you go into compression is far more in detail and explains it much better than anything I’ve seen. Previous to you, I have always had a difficult time understanding how and when and why compression. Now it’s easy. Thank you so much for all of your great work!

I don't have Logic, however Colin presents the concepts and workflow in such a clear way that I'm able to apply them to my mixes in Luna. Thanks very much!

🙌 That's awesome! I'm actually considering doing a similar series in Luna- what do you think... should I?

@TheBassplayr64 7 ай бұрын

You certainly have my vote on starting a Luna series! I was using GarageBand before and improved my mixes greatly because of your videos. When UAD recently offered Luna for free and without their hardware requirement I started using it. @@TheBandGuide

@TheBassplayr64 7 ай бұрын

You have my vote to do some Luna videos. When UAD recently offered a free download and no hardware purchase requirement, they made Luna available to the masses. While their plugin offerings can be expensive, third party AUs work fine and I've been able to use everything that I've accumulated for GarageBand. I have learned a ton from your videos while using GarageBand for recording and mixing, thanks!. @@TheBandGuide

After the initial 30-lesson course, I felt like I understood buses fairly well, i.e. setting up a single bus for a particular type of effect, then send several tracks to it (where you want that effect), then dial in the amount of it to taste on a per-track basis. After this lesson, I think I'm lost again on the bus concept; particularly referencing the additional tracks that you were creating. I thought the concept of a bus was to have a single track in your project (per effect). Perhaps I misunderstood the concept in the first place. What might I be missing in my comprehension? Thanks! Regarding the track, I'd say release it! It sounds good 👍

I want to echo the comment about a week being too long! This series premiered just as I was taking a stab at my band's first self-produced song. I mixed with the knowledge I had before, and we were all disappointed. I've been following your tips week by week, and although I'm still by no means a professional, I'm impressed with how far our track has come. Thank you! P.S. Please release the song! My girlfriend hears it as I watch your videos and she's become a huge fan of Broke Royals.

hi. when you describe how to create a real drums sound you used pre fader but here in this process you used post pan to mix the drums. I am little bit confused. Please guide me. Thank You.

Thanks again, Colin. This is so helpful. You have new tricks every time. I noticed that you use reverb in a very economical way. Special thanks for the direction plug-in put in the bus for guitars 🎸. By the way, I just bought an electric guitar for myself - the first one I ever have had. 👍🎶

I was looking forward to hearin’ what fx you’d use on the ending ad-lib “nate vox” & ya skipped it 😆 either way, such a great concise series on pop mixing! You should show us how you track to have such great material to mix. it could be called “tracking for a great mix”

Hi Colin, I love your videos! They’ve been so helpful for me starting out! I’m working on a song that has rhythm keys and guitars as well as a lead key solo and later a guitar solo. Would you leave those leads out of the summing stack that’s sent to the reverb so they stick out mor and treat them separately, or would you add them all to the summing stack to be sent to the reverb? Thanks!

@ananthmenon 6 ай бұрын

Broke Royals: definitely definitely release this!

@johnvender 8 ай бұрын

Totally agree that reverb and delay should be added quite late in the process and using sends to add them parallel rather than on the tracks directly. One thing I find helpful to get a natural sound is setting a bit of predelay.

Definitely! Good call, John

First off, new subscriber here and I really appreciate this series and your channel in general. My question is simple I think: is this the stage of a mix that I would want to use desired modulation effects like chorus? I use chorus quite a bit on synth leads and guitar and now this series really has me wondering when to chorus to a track. Thanks so much!

@danielrennie8444 6 ай бұрын

I just finished watching this entire 9 video playlist, and I was actually wondering if you ever did any side chaining. Did I miss it somewhere in this series? And if so, do you always use Logic stock plugins or do you use something like TrackSpacer or TheMasker to use auto attenuation EQ to side chain and make space? Thanks again for a great series. I got a lot out of it and will be using a process more like this in the future!

Fantastic series! Thank you for pulling back the curtain so us mere mortals can approach better mixes. I do have one question, not sure if you answered it elsewhere, you have been mixing with headphones the whole time and things sound great! I thought headphone mixing was a taboo thing?

@TheBandGuide 6 ай бұрын

Great question! Not at all. People make a big deal about this but there is absolutely nothing wrong with mixing on headphones. What matters most is... 1) you learn what great music sounds like on whatever you're mixing on 2) you get a setup capable of producing high fidelity sound and doesn't have too much hyping (like most commercial headphones) Andrew Scheps (mixing legend) swears by mixing on headphones.

cool. what's the point of sending the full buss in addition to adjusting the fader of the bus?. do I make sense? can't we just adjust the effect with the circle knob and not bother with the fader?

Hello Colin! Thank you for this tutorial. I often use one room reverb for all my sources, with different pre-delay on them. To create the same room sound Is it stupid? Thanks

@TheBandGuide 7 ай бұрын

Definitely not stupid! I know a lot of people who do that. It really just depends on what you're going for and if you're happy with the results you're getting!

@keviethedesigner Ай бұрын

but wait, so on the vocal part, I see that your bus is stereo but your input is mono. Did you make the whole summing stack mono and leave your bus stereo, or??

@redlightclinicdrummer 7 ай бұрын

When you go to cover automation could we cover using automation in the beginning as well? I record metal some times and when it comes to drummers playing super fast double bass the wave file gets super small when they play fast. But their slow strokes are super solid and loud. So I feel like EQ or compression aren't the answer to fixing that and it's more so to do with gain automation in the beginning?

@redlightclinicdrummer 7 ай бұрын

That's at least what I saw some one on Instagram say they did. Because its super tricky to try to fix that by starting with EQ and compression first.

@TheBandGuide 7 ай бұрын

I'm not 100% sure what they would have been automating for that purpose- my guess is automating the speeding of the release on their compressor so it's released by the time the next kick drum hits so it's not turning down each hit. hmmm 🤔
