The TRUTH About Gain Staging | Everything You Need to Know
Gain staging in audio production is one of those hot topics that seems to cause a lot of confusion. Before you start mixing your song, it is important to get this right for the best results. In this video, I will show you what gain staging is, how to read your meters in your DAW, and how to set the gain for the correct headroom in your mix. I am using Pro Tools for this tutorial but this lesson can be applied to any DAW including Logic Pro X, FL Studio, Studio One, reaper, Ableton, and more.

My guy! Say less gzz. We appreciate you!
Done deal.
yooh you reallly make me smile in the intro
no homo
Bro said “tripping bout clipping”! 🤣
Gain staging is so important. Excellent explanation and tips as always!
💯💯
I seriously think that you are not only one of the most informed in this biz, but you're the funniest, and most charismatic person out there that's doing this. I love watching your videos.
Also just bought the VU meter with your link - hope you get the credit
I've been watching your videos ever since you first started dropping them, even though I know how to do all this stuff already I still watch and hit like because it's entertaining, and I love your perspective. Keep being yourself bro. You're helping alot of people!
Your excitement gets me excited to learn more. Thank you Wayne!
I was worried about this thing for long. Just opened RUclips for it, and bang!! I saw your video! Thanks Man!! You are amazing!
Dope Video Bredren! The audio quality, video quality, lighting, information and professionalism is the best I've seen on RUclips so far.
Keep pressing on. Big Up!!!
🙏🏽 thanks fam
Thank you Wayne!!! I never knew what Gain Staging really meant. Now when I start any session, I’ll make sure I add that VU meter and set my volumes with Clip Gaining before anything else. It’s those slight changes in Fader Resolution that will take my mixing to another level. Again, I say thank you.
... and All the time you do brother! Still dropping knowledge! 🙏 That was like the advanced version of the one you made a while back on levels and beginner mixing! We’ve come a long way!
Great Video, I prefer this video explanation & demonstration than the others out there on RUclips, you broke everything down ro layman's terms and it was easy to understand.
Super helpful. Such a great instructor. The way you explain things makes understanding so easy. Thank you sir!
ONCE AGAINNNN WAVY DID IT AGAIN THIS MAN REALLY HELPFUL
Wavy your the 🐐! U got me putting out nothing but radio ready mixes!!! Thanks bro!!!
So important! The most overlooked aspect of mixing.
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for your clear and simple explanation!!!! 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you brother. This is so helpful and we are grateful to have you sharing your wisdom.
I'm a logic user and this vid really helped me , your doing amazing job .. love from Saudi Arabia ❤️✌🏻
🙏🏽🙏🏽💯
This Very Important Jewel Improved ALL My mixes by so much!!
Great video, Wayne. I knew what gain staging was and I do it. But this video gave me the details needed to do it properly. Before I was just guessing.
First thing, wasn't here for a long time, feels good to be back to your channel :)
I remember i "learned" in some youtube video that the best gain level for plugguins is somewhere between -6 to -9 db, but after messing with things for a little while i noticed it's should be even lower. -18 sound perfect (not reading the manuals was my bad as well).
Anyways, thanks a lot!! much appreciated! I've searched youtube for couple of days for that answer!
Can you explain further
Love you my dude!
yessir! ...much needed info more on the basics
Providing real industry knowledge!!! Thank you brother !!!
I don't think I ever clicked a video this fast lmfao 😂🤣🤣😂

Thank You always for your help
Very Helpful. Thanks!
Dope video people truly overlook gain staging
Inspirational channel
All of your videos are helpful bro 👍🏽
Appreciate you soldier!!!
Great vid man -- super useful info -- I'm finally applying proper gain staging before starting a mix, didn't for a long time. I prefer to use a trim control to adjust levels for gain staging to give myself the option of using clip gain afterward for mixing moves later on. VU (volume unit),....sorry,.....I know,...I'm that guy. OH! I subbed, keep em coming.
Great stuff thanks.
great personality! great explanation, thank you.
Yo I saw you put them glasses on lol No seriously this video is MONUMENTAL!!! You just help me find the peace to the puzzle hidden under the bed lets go!!! Also I've been thinking about taking the PT certification class this year but have unanswered questions. Thanks again Wavy Wiz' I appreciate you take care!!
Finally, a video that is simple and straightforward about this..thanks man...although I still haven't seen a video that includes how to match a reference track as well as gainstage...I believe you just turn down the mastered wav. to hit 0 with headroom at.-18 correct?
u da best mane!
Dope vid! Great info.
Great vid. Thank you.
