    I always try to balance my mixing using the expression and modulation the more that I can. Thank you Chris,

    Do you know of any good brass libraries with trumpets that play a good fanfare style marcato?

  • @royzilbersher3228
    @royzilbersher3228 9 месяцев назад

    but why modulating the volume knob? those libraries suppose to be mixed by their own, if you have a volume jump or you want to fix it, you should do it thru the expression or mod and not thru the volume

    how did u use the reverb? I think its really hard to balance the deep of the instruments vs the tail and muddy things of a lot of reverb

    • @ChristopherSiu
      @ChristopherSiu  Год назад +2

      I like to start with dryer, detailed instruments with some pre-delay, so the source itself doesn't get muddied with the reverb. Then it's all about matching the depth of the reverb with the wetter samples you have!

      @@ChristopherSiu is this right to use different reverb plugins with different decay rate in the mix?

    Hi,I always see people say pan instruments of same range or similar sound to different parts of stereo field.
    But If we want to blend 2 instrumens ,is it correct to pan them to different parts of stereo field or we should place them in the same place to blend them?
