This was super clear and helpful, so thank you! Immediately shifted my head on what to aim for when balancing things. And also helped me understand how to use metering to get to a good place….
Finally getting around to the lesson and thank u thank u thank u, literally what I struggle with the most at the moment and this is so insanely helpful
In this example, none of you tracks were in groups. But as you know, people use these a lot. If you have tracks in a group, would you turn down the individual tracks or could you get away with turning down the group gain to -6?
Sub-mixing by using groups is a great thing to do, but keep in mind that creating the group creates ANOTHER STAGE OF GAIN. referring to my video, it would be like adding another tap/faucet to the garden hose analogy. My point? You should still conduct your gain-staging on each track first, as every point of gain should be under your control. Try this: 1. Gain-stage as per the above video first 2. Get a rough balance of all tracks together (AKA a “rough mix” 3. Add your groups as you like to do. Use these groups (and the fader) to adjust the overall balance of the group in the mix 4. Adjust any individual instrument fader with the group if it feels unbalanced In the end, the order and actual process of how you do it doesn’t really matter in s digital system, it’s more about developing a workflow and controlling the gain at each stage. Where you order those stages is up to you!
Extremely helpful. Waiting for the next stages. Really appreciate this. Amazing. Thanks!
Been counting down the days on the next video! Thank you for all the great content, sir.

Excellent, I'm glad it helped you!
