yo white noise I commented on another video about tiktok mix, could you do a video on how to tiktok mix for your track from bandlab cause I got really confused by the app you were using, if you were wondering what video it was it's called "How to get a perfect audio mix in Tiktok! - Loudness Secrets Revealed", if you could do this it would mean the world, thanks :)
I'm a little late to the question and biased but Split EQ is phenomenal. I've never felt I had that much control over the sound while EQ-ing and actually getting to a result I'm fully happy with and without concessions.
Thank you for your hard work editing and learning all the features of this awesome plugin to make it easier for us to understand! You are the Video Manual for these plugins :-) Thanks again and I appreciate your hard work!!
The information contained in your videos and the way you present it makes them priceless! Thanks for everything you do! You are helping so many people understand complex plugins, how to use them, and the concepts behind them! Really excellent!!!
As soon as I used it, thousands of possibilities came to mind. Use it with external sidechain to get the instrumental bus out of the way of the vocal (a la Trackspacer, but way more versatile).
Yeah. I guess. Trackspacer is incredibly transparent. But I'm sure you could find lots of creative uses for this if you really weren't going for transparent ducking.
In fact an advanced alternative to the beloved OTT. Amazing results!.... put some tilt eq + transient shaper after OTT and we got similar shit. Probabilly my #1 Dynamic Shaper
This is really good. I like that it's not trying to be a saturator too. Just focusing on one this from pretty much every angle. And there's oversampling... Because without it, this level of dynamic control would definitely create audible aliasing. I'm going to have to check this one out. It sounds like things are generally really well done with consideration for sonic impact..... Most of the tweaks you demonstrated sounded very natural.
This plugin is a beast. I basically always dial a little upward compression ( just a little! ) , and use downward compression to control peak and louder parts. It works so well on basically all audio you use it on.
You could turn this into a very flexible/powerful multiband processor inside of bitwig using the multi3 preset. Put one instance in each band and away you go
I demoed it today. Not gonna replace my la2a distressor 1176, what ever for tone. But for precision work, it just does it better and faster than amything else. I use it to expand breathy vocals, softed or intensify constinants, and shape top end as an amazing de-esser. Allows me to rescue vocal performances that are expressed amazingly, but has flaws. You don't need this if u record perfect musicians... but we're not perfect musicians
The transient shaper alone makes this worth its price and them some. I don't even use it as a compressor as I prefer the sound of other plugins but simply putting this on the master and adding a little transient and tone really brings out the kick, bass and snare drum.
Nice! I really like to use both compressors. It’s so easy to add even out dynamics with those. Also VERY easy to complete kill all dynamics ;-) use with care
I have the mix and master subscription so downloaded this immediately to try it out. This has a very steep learning curve! I threw it onto a drum buss and my mastering chain on a track i was working on. I played with some presets and made some adjustments. It would be nice if there was an AI analysis feature like some of the izotope plugins or other smart plugins. Im definitely going to have to play with this more but very impressed by my initial experience.
This seems too similar to NewFangled Audio's Elevate for me to justify, but it's cool to see other companies take on this style of processing! I do like ADPTR audio's work as a Metric AB owner.
I have never dived into elevate, seems interesting to put it up against sculpt. As far as I can tell right now, i'd say sculpt is more versitile because Elevate mentions multiband limiting and maximizing. Sculpt is dynamics processing in the broadest sense, including compression and not multiband - much more sidechain orientated which will influence the entire audio.
this looks interesting! I compose orchestral music so is hard to understand how to use the infos regarding compression *** etc given by beat makers. The first two that i started to use with more awareness are Mv2 and something’s 156 by Waves. Now i am curious about this one. To use use just one plugins to automate dynamics and articulations in the bus would be ideal
Sculpt is a compression / dynamics specialist. Ozone is way more of an all in one mastering package and Neutron more of a channel strip XXL. So there is absolutely overlap, sculpt is dynamics only and does that really, really good and more flexible than neutron or ozone.
Ok so just trialed it, I'm no wiz or anything, but 220 ms latency on the plugin in Ableton, even if latency is set to lowest in the vst? That's a lot... Anyone have issues w this?
@@whitenoisestudio True, I just think it's a lot, plus right now the latency holds, even if the plugin is turned off. But apparently Metric AB sent over an update to adress latency among others things some weeks back, right now waiting for PA to approve it and push the update live. Thanks.
Elevate is optimized for mastering and has tools tailored for that. So for that purpose alone Elevate would be better suited. Sculpt can do mastering as well, but since elevate is a bundle and gives you teh freedom of using th eplugin in any order you want, I'd go for that in mastering situations. For mixing, I REALLY like sculpt.
@@whitenoisestudio It's the stock emoji if you search "headphones". 🙂 Quick question, do you use the SM7b for most of your videos or another mic outside the camera view?
@@whitenoisestudio Thanks for confirming! I use the same mic and would love to make my vocals sound as good as yours. For that, I'll keep watching your content. =)
Agree. The latency is something which is needed to make the plugin function like it does. It's also something adptr points out themselves, and I dont think you want this plugin to use in realtime monitoring anyway, its really mix/ master only. And your DAW's latency compensation will take of the latency then.
Im not sure what you gain using this 1 plugin instead of a chain as normal. The auto gain feature is cool maybe? that's the only value I can see really.
The 4 modules work somewhat together, which will give a different result than having the 4 in series. Also the speed with which you can work and adjust is a big plus and ofcourse, the flexibility with the extended sidechain is a big plus as well.
Would be nice if u did the realtime usage on a more suitable song with dynamics instead of 1 crazy distorted guitar and a snaredrum. Other than that good review.

OTT is pretty sweet and free. Cant beat that ;-)
looks all really phantastic. I also like that you focus on a single section of the music, and music doesn’t suck like it normally does elsewhere ;0

I love the Sculpt to get a really steady level on an audiotrack, that upward / downward combo is extremely powerful. Handle with care ;-)

another excellent walk thru... made me buy this plug-in ! 💚 Thank you !
Very happy with my purchase 😻
I honestly think this is one of the best compressor plugins. Enjoy it!

It would be nice if there was an AI analysis feature like some of the izotope plugins or other smart plugins.

If you try to follow the order I showed it gets easier I’d say. Like reduction first, boost second, tonal third and transient to round it off
What you are doing is great and deserves a lot more reviews!
Many thanks for your kind words!!!
I am demoing it and it is really really good! Thx for the review as always mate
oh man, this one is very sweet. One for the best of 2022 list.
Quite clever design....the future is going to be very interesting!
Hopefully! There have been some good ones released which push boundaries over the last 8 months.
So quick with excellent, top notch content. Thank You!
Thanks! Wasnt that quick, got caught by suprise on the early PA membership release. I had the beta for a few weeks already.
@@whitenoisestudio Aha...nice. Excellent content either way my man!!! Thank you...

I own Elevate and I don't understand the comparison, how is it too similar?
Somewhat broadband compression. But they differ for sure.
This looks like a damn good and very versatile plug in!
It is. The more you delve into it, the more you will find out how much this one can do.

The whole idea of this one is to give you a big set of options to achieve transparant dunamic processing. it's certainly up that task.
@@whitenoisestudio total, i got the feel!
@@emanuel_soundtrack yes!
Thank you for this review! Question for you. Is there something Sculpt can do that Izotope Neutron and Izotope Ozone can not?

Try MSpectralDynamics from Melda Production and MDynamicsMB that is Advanced!
melda makes good plugins for sure.
Great video sir.
Very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Love everything by Adptr... instant buy...
its good stuff for sure!
Better than Ozone9 from Isotope?
Different tools really. Ozone offers way more for mastering.
Thanks, insightful and to the point 😎🤘
Glad it was helpful!
I should've watched THIS video/quasi-tutorial first!
First before what exactly?
nice hoodie
Ok so just trialed it, I'm no wiz or anything, but 220 ms latency on the plugin in Ableton, even if latency is set to lowest in the vst? That's a lot... Anyone have issues w this?
Why is the latency an issue? Ableton should be able to compensate that during playback. This is not a plugin to be used while monitoring.
@@whitenoisestudio True, I just think it's a lot, plus right now the latency holds, even if the plugin is turned off. But apparently Metric AB sent over an update to adress latency among others things some weeks back, right now waiting for PA to approve it and push the update live. Thanks.

Not only a great plugin review but also a lesson on compression, expansion and transient processing.
Thanks for your kind words! Much appreciated :-)
So is this like a multiband MV2 from waves? + MO-TT from Slate?
What do you think? lol
What the video i'd say.
OK, and then the big question, is this thing CPU-heavy?
No it isnt :-) except when you decide to do 16X oversampling of course.
@@whitenoisestudio Nice! I love PA plugins, so I will get this sooner rather than later!
I can get it now for $75...you think is worth it for me to get it? Good video BTW🌌

is the tone module a dynamic eq + exciter? I honestly dont get the different between this and Eqs with saturation
More like a tool which pushes audio to an ideal EQ curve you set by using dynamics.
@@whitenoisestudio it means, it corrects the dynamics so to say to adapt to the desired frequencies?
@@emanuel_soundtrack yeah sort of like that.
13:13 original sound better. That sidechain/pumping effect fits maybe electro house but for this no. And yeah I have listened lots of Sepultura :D
That's korn ;-)
Nice but i think i prefer my fabfilter plugins
Fair enough! But I dont have a Fabfilter Plugin which does exactly this.

thanks but I think you have watched a different video. your music comments don’t apply at all on this video.
Feels like cheating
Compressors are unnatural ...
They are? Usually they grow on trees…
sorry, for me the bad plug in 2022 for one reason....... bad tone
Plugin doesnt have a sound.
@@whitenoisestudio bad dynamics.......is better?
