    This video was waaaay better than a lot of other gain staging videos. I've followed other videos through a process and have ended up doing a ton of work for little to no mix improvement. This helps me understand it and will allow me work through the impacts of making adjustments to tracks after I'm already in the mixing process. Thanks Austin!

  • @ReubenWalton
    @ReubenWalton Год назад

    Is there a way to tell from Logic Pro X if the vocal take you just recorded was clipping at all on the way in on your interface? Or is your DAW always only showing you the level it’s playing at in your DAW? It’s not always easy to look at the level meter on my SSL 2+ at the same time that I’m singing.

    I think a cool tutorial would be on how to make a song in the style of the early 2010's boy band songs.
    Easy examples being:
    NSYNC
    Backstreet Boys
    A modern example would be the fake boy band created by FINNEAS, 4 Town.

    Good insights! Just wondering how you treat for example a vet instrument using Native Instruments Kontakt? Would you set the level within the actual plugin (output) or do you add a gain plugin on the channel?

    I've mixed a lot of bad vocals and this is a good video for all artists recording themselves especially when it comes to the noise floor and clipping. I either get vocals heavily clipped in the chorus (and while Izotope Declipper is great, it can only do so much) or they are so quite that the noise is insane and i have to finesse it all day to try to balance it out and still the vocals will either be super muted and lack high end or have an annoying hiss throughout.

    • @MakePopMusic
      @MakePopMusic  Год назад +2

      Absolutelyyyy. If artists are tracking themselves, I always ask them to send me a 30 second test before they track an entire song and then need to re-do it because the multis are ass. Hahaha

    I’m really trynna understand something …how come your vocals are stereo and not mono? Didn’t you record them as mono?

    • @MakePopMusic
      @MakePopMusic  Год назад +1

      They were printed as a stereo track but they’re still up the middle (so mono). They were recorded mono from the artist and then bounced as a stereo multi track. It doesn’t really matter either way in Cubase. I assume they did it because lots of the vocals had panning and stereo fx printed on them.

    Came for the gain staging , stayed for the compression 😂

  • @heartshinemusic
    @heartshinemusic Год назад

    I think recording a LOUD and DISTORTED signal is way, way worse than an QUIET signal. We see that with the rise of (AI) noise reduction plug-ins, (Like RX and the new Waves one) many noise floor problems are now solvable. In the near future, we may even clean-up and mix tracks that were considered unusable for years.

  • @OSdahl

    I always gain stage each track its good pro practise. Does it matter in the long run. Yes it will have a slightly better outcome. You are only producing the track one
