WHO AM I:
I'm Streaky, a RUclipsr and professional audio engineer from Henley, UK. I make videos sharing my knowledge of mixing & mastering from my 25 years of engineering. I've worked at some of the biggest studios in Europe including Metropolis Studios and here are some artists I've worked with - Ed Sheeran, Adele, Jonas Blue, Krept & Konan, Depeche Mode, Paul Weller, Skepta, Naughty Boy, Sigala & many more... I also have a weekly email newsletter that contains tips, tricks & discounts to cool stuff (www.streaky.co...)
Thank you Streaky for your awareness in making this information digestible. Many thanks for the months of free lessons
Just if you didnt know yet: the uad pultec Applies about 1db gain when Turned on. That Might lead into your „Sounds Good if on“ besides the saturation circuit
I'm 26, and i buy beats and record my vocals. I don't waste time trying to learn a bunch of things, just some Fabfilter + ozone plugins and i'm ok. Waves alone is 1,3+ GB thats crazy. Thats my first year learning mastering vocals and shit. Still feel like i don't know nothing. You help us a LOT Streaky.
Another wanna be musician 🤮
Dude we wanted to see the ENTIRE chain.
Bro you are an absolute goat in this genre of youtube, always direct to the point and super useful stuff Thank you !
Great Video, this is where your channel sits best. Stick with Mastering.
Hands down the best video you’ve put out for a long time.
Cheers,
Jamie
thx
My latest mastering chain: bounce to tape (Telefunken M15), AD converter with soft clipping 😊
Ditched the long chain of digital plugins
Streaky.. once again, you’re the 🐐🐐
Would love to have a similar video with your hardware pls! I’ve got my PQ, maag, bax and a few compressors myself
Blessed love Teacher I give thanks for your teaching 🙏🏿 I been studying and following from nearly the start when you came on RUclips Teacher.even enter few give away but I no luck yet but your teaching for me is more valuable than the gear but if I win one day I'll keep it to start a studio in Jamaica in my small talented town Red Ground Jamaica. So Teacher may jah bless you itinualy. One love.

AMPEX ATR 102 is hands down my fav tool in my mastering chain, kinda refreshing to hear you're also using it almost like an EQ, I LOVE IT! Thanks for this epic informative video!
Love your channel. I've learned more from you than most RUclipsrs. Thank You!
for me the Fabfilter Pro L stay the most transparent and perfect limiter .... keep all emotions of my tracks. I love fabfilter plugins.
I confirm, 100% software here 🙂
All his hardware is dated in the wrong way. Very clean sounding stuff that plugins are equal to. Guarantee he’s only using software
:45 in he said that’s what he was doing
@@Whywhatwherehowwhen he says in the first seconds he’s only using software
@@Whywhatwherehowwhenyou’re dreaming
Would have been great to see the hardware none the less, your not the only one with a knob fettish! 😆😆
Doesn't seem that long ago when it was 50k give away!
Any thoughts on Hum audio LAAL?
I also love software! 😆😆
Thanks Streaky. I think a very helpful video would be to demonstrate why one piece of gear or plugin "doesn't work for this track" while another works well. What are you listening for in order to make that determination?
Love that you're using a trackball. You and I may be the only ones:-) But, unfortunately, I am not left-handed.
What are some E.Q and Compression you might use for mastering RnB, Soul, Gospel, House? Have a good week Professor
Are you using this chain on every mix? Looks like you're just showing the various plugins you use, as needed.
I'd love to see the point of view from the hardware as well my friend.
THANKS !!!!!!!! I learn a lot from you, you are a great person
Hey Streaky. Thanks for sharing your key tools. Are you not using DMG Limitless? I've heavily used Pro-L2 and Elevate, and A/B'd them against Limitless and nearly every time I choose Limitless. It sounds significantly more open to me, plus has a pre-limiter clipper built in with oversampling. Up until I started using it, I was all about Pro-L2 but I'm finding Pro-L2 is not finding it onto my masters much anymore. Curious if you've experimented with Limitless.
Love DMG Limitless! Typically use it as my final limiter - the manual mode and band shaping really makes it special. Standard Clip into Limitless with a touch of its SWELL2 clipping absolutely killer at the end of the chain.
My chain is pretty simple, Voxengo TEOTE, FG-X2, Limitless, Basslane Pro.
The last version of Waves SSL Comp has side chain HP and a Mix control 😉
Could you please elaborate ?
Let's make good music!
i saw one of your videos that you showed how to apply the reverb setting to all channel mixings instead of doing one by one. Could you give us a link again? it was a short i guess.
Can you go thru your analog/hardware equipment too would love too see
Would love to see the hardware you’re using too!
Streaky, I would love to hear about your hardware chain and how you integrate it with the software, especially if you still utilize the Lynx Hilo. Cheers.
Thanks for the video! Really appreciate it
YOURE Mastering Chain...the secret weapon "Like the "Pros" do...for Decades. (In Basic.
Is there a youtube Producer music Comedy Click baitt award? Read only one Book about the engineering side of Music Production.
Chapter one. First Paragraph. "Your" MAstering Chain.
Nearly at 100K, well deserved.
300 FOR THAT sontec....Ive got the Nebula version called Percise live analog sampled from the analog unit....
Good video! I've been liking the Kclip3 clipper alot recently.
I know you’re a big fab filter fan but how do you think it compares to the iZotope Ozone equivalent dynamic eq?
If u new round herr!!! It sounds like a song
Can’t believe you are only on 100k (as good as that is!).
Good stuff as usual streaky , good solid info and definitely instils confidence into the approach to mastering , Thanks
Im sorry its call Prestine.....thats the live analog sampled nebula version of the Hardware unit
Thanks for sharing with us your plugin chain! I guess some of us use hardware also so i would love a ''what's in my racks'' video. Thanks 😁
You should try ASH by Acustica Audio as a clipper.The best by far and really really close to high end adc converters clipping
What are your thoughts on the AOM invinsible limiter?
+1 for those who'd watch a video about the analog chain too:)
Very interesting, please do a video of your hardware chain also! 😎 A question: I've noticed a trend on SM for mixers to specifically mold their tracks with pretty extensive compression and saturation on the mix bus and just leave the limiting and corrective EQ to the mastering engineer, what's your experience in 2023? And is there any benefit to that approach or would you always still prefer the old school way of handing over a mix with a large dynamic range?
yep leave the limiting to mastering but EQ do what you want...it's not changed mastering is mastering :)
@@Streaky_com Thanks, let me just dive a bit further into your answer there. What is mastering today? Is it 1) the stereo file processing itself with goal of refining the mix or is it 2) the procedure of sending the mix away to be assessed by a set of experienced ears in a really good monitoring environment? Because I've always been of the opinion that both 1 and 2 need to be fulfilled to be called Mastering. I've had this conversation a number of times during the last couple of years and my empirical data seems to suggest that only doing 1 also qualifies as mastering. There are so many mix engineers advertising their services as a mix/master sandwich and I just find it to be interesting as part 2 seems to be missing? I have no problem understanding why this is happening - smaller budgets, ITB processing is just as good and readily available to everyone, streaming releases require no song sequencing or DDP files etc. What's your take on this, is mastering on it's way to just being accepted (or even required) as part of the mix?
clickbait
I want to see hardware i am the same!!! come on brother give us the full rundown ~ No cheating ;-) love the videos brother thanks
Miss playing with knobs is crazy lool
Please do a similar video regarding your hardware.
ATR102 for the win, normally have it further down the chain though. 15 ips
I think of it like I'm running from the tape before mastering...old school
I often run it before going out to the analogue chain, but usually after a bit of Eq. If I’m just doing something purely ITB, then I might play with the order. It can sound surprisingly good in unexpected places.
I print the mixes to a Studer A812 mk2, and then print back to digital before mastering
I never understood how you can have a set chain .. every genre is so different.. I couldn't imagine using my chain on trap beats as I use on say a country song.. I dunno maybe it's just me
If you’re mastering for mainstream audiences, it’s the same concepts generally
I took offense to the not informing the hardware as if I have any hardware
I keep trying the UAD Pultec on my mixbus or mastering bus. I swear that it collapses the stereo image a little.
Anyone else feel that? It isn’t as much an issue if you started a mix with it already on the 2 bus; I suspect you would just mix everything a pinch wider from the jump. But, when I add it after the fact, I swear it narrows the field a little, despite the significant level bump the plug-in defaults with.
Are you using the legacy version or regular?
@@FLWoodPushers the regular one. Not the legacy. Though, truly I’ve stopped even trying the Pultec on the mix Buss. 🤷🏻♂️
You ever use DrMS on the master ?
will It cause phase issues with so much plugins in the chain? I have about 9 plugins in my master so wondering if that's the right way to do it.
Hey Streaky, I'm in the market for a new laptop. I will be using it only for recording artists and bands. There is a project coming up that I will need to record a 5 piece band in a live studio setup. What CPU and RAM do you recommend to handle the job and or other specs I'm not aware of??? Thanks
What track is playing in the background
Well... Seeing that Weiss behind, there's not much to comment about the hardware and ask what you typically use in the workflow 😁
No DMG.--- I don't get it. ;) Normally I totally agree on how you see things and also how you debunk some production myths, but no Multiplicity or Limitless - I have to reevaluate our relationship :)
Thanks for sharing your collection !!
don't see no pro mastering engineer in the vid...?
basicly, slap a god particle on the 2bus and u saved some money.
I got ONE question Streaky!!!
Are you using these plugins pre or post your analog chain?!
Love you Streaky, you da man!
Still hoping I’ll get an answer…just patiently waiting…any time now…
Both!
Both 80% before
@@Streaky_com Thanks Streaky! I’m also around 80% before. Ideally I want all before, thereby preserving the fingerprint of the converters. C’est la vie.
Do you know or have an opinion on Ableton 11 getting CPU about 40% cpu and popping.
I'm talking Waves Kush Spitfire.
I can't even run a mastering chain..
Three plugins, transformers and my PC is done popping right up to 90% cpu.
Thanks for your work.
That a Pultec knockoff?
Hey Streaky, what a fab video, so interesting and really do listen to your advice, thank you for all your tips.
Cool. Still keen to see the analogue rack
Pls what's the song that comes in at 9:28?❤
Pulteck trick? I used to look up to you.
show the hardware ... ;)
would like to see a new video in 2024 for your mastering chain! i think Lace should be in that chain
Incoming
I have a Hybrid Mastering rig. Streaky do share what you use in your hybrid analog rig.
ok
The part where you said ‘I think it sounded crap’ regarding a plug in made me subscribe ,my kind of direct,no fuss tutorial
great video! I use Ozone maximizer (including soft clipper) and sometimes I also add another clipper to cut 2 db peaks before the limiter, is it bad to use 2 clippers in master bus?
How do you get green knobs on the Sontec? Just getting to grips with mine - great plugin! I now have all these, and some idea what they all do - very inspiring video
cool vid, can you review some of the new SSL plugins?
Try to do as little as possible to get a great sound is a very wise piece of advice
Pro q, Pro mb, dbx comp, newfangled elevate. Done and done
Hey Streaky, how do you feel about roughly mastering my rap songs with an SSL Compressor and than FabFilter Pro L?
Would have been nice if you shared a plugin list here.
Otherwise, love your channel!
Hope I win something 🙏
LEGEND!
Awesome Vid, thanks for sharing !!
I am addicted to the Sonalksis 315 compressor. I didn't realize this until 2021, when the c19 world event hit. I used that time to update my whole system. I didn't want to purchase it a second time(lost my ancient 20yr old email and thus license), so I thought to myself. Man I use this a lot, why don't I try to use another compressor !!?? Maybe 2 will work ? I been using this SOO long, maybe I should try something new!!?? Maybe I'm missing out!?!? I gave myself many months to trial and tinker around. The results were, no way. That compressor has some magic sauce. It does normal stuff normally but also does some extreme stuff very well. There is an auto-gain on there and wow. it just works right. This compressor is super clean/ almost no color but really lets you control the dynamics. It does things other plugins cannot. One of the reasons I want to share, is caz when I went to buy it for a second time, i noticed the site has not been updated in a long time. Maybe they need more love ? I haven't seen it in ANY videos !! If people don't know about it, they are missing out for sure. It does the business.
The only other dynamics tool which people might not realize how useful it is > voxengo Elephant < this is useful for major changes. it does things other plugins cannot do. I use it mainly for material which has terrible dynamics, but I just want to hear the song. caz you know when you have a song and didn't mix it very well, you don't know if the song is worth anything, but you want to be able to listen to it sometime in the future. Elephant can do that major stretch and still sound half decent.
MDW DRC2?
Thanks Streaky I still think you should be on Eastenders on the box replace dirty Den haven’t seen it for years yes I would come back . Thank you for such a great mastering course .
Interested in your outboard hardware if you ever feel inclined to share it
I would be incredibly interested in the hardware you use. not so much as a tutorial but just as an interest piece.
I think we can add a fourth for a lot of sterile digital mixes which is saturation and character. so tape, console, and/or saturator emulations
Not invisible limiter g3 anymore ?
Hi 👋 we are interested in the hardware as well
Please do a vid about the analog gear/ hybrid setup too!🤞
Thanks again Streaky, really good advice here, much appreciated 🙂💛
What UAD device are you using to access the plugin(s)? I can’t imagine you’re using their interfaces. Any recommendations. Are you using a Satellite?
The UAD plug-ins are the must haves that are missing from my collection but I don’t need a new interface, my RME does a solid job…
UA plugins are just par for the course now. Theres a lot of plugin companies that are surpassing them now. Acustica Audio is probably the best rn
What do you think about the ssl fusion and ssl bus plus?
we WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE A HARDWARE TOUR!
Can you please explain what program to use if I wanted to make my album join all together. If I remember correctly, Moby had and album were a single sound flowed through the entire album. Like one song flows into another, but you can control which songs you want to listen to with the controls.
Render all songs to wav and load them into a new daw project and sequence them together
HOW DOES YOUR SONTEC HAVE GREEN KNOBS???
nice
Well somehow since I listen to streaky I learn so fast that mix improved a lot.
as expected, vague info, would never spend a penny on any of this guy's stuff
Thanks SO much for sharing those valuable insights Streaky!
Professor Streaky.. go thru the hardware...
Is the sontec available for PC yet
not sure...get a mac and stop being silly :)
@@Streaky_com PC all the way mate 🤣
Very helpful insight! Thank you for sharing some of the different tools you use for mastering 👏
