I’ve learned more from Sage Audio than I have on ANY other channel! Thanks so much for your excellent tutorials!!! I’m super grateful!!! Happy New Year!!!
I like to switch back and forth between mono and stereo mixing. I'll make it sound good in stereo then check the mix in mono and make adjustments, so it sounds good on both.
@Oliseh Azuya it also depends on the mix for me. Sometimes I can’t get it to sound good in stereo, so I’ll start the mix in mono. After that, I might add stereo widening if it isn’t wide enough or just some reverb to give it space. I like to use ozone 9 imager if the mix isn’t wide enough.
I HV WATCHED MORE TUTORIALS ON RUclips BUT NON OF THE THEM HV IMPRESSED ME THE WAY YOU HV DONE TO ME THIS DAY 07JAN 2022..I HOPE I WILL MAKE GOOD MUSIC THIS YEAR
It's good to check in mono yes, but once you're confident in mixing you'll end up putting the low end stuff in mono anyway and only spreading some higher frequencies. Mid/side mixing is also excellent for controlling the sides especially 👌🏿 great video as usual 💯
Hello thier Sage Audio!, I like to put recording into My DAW in 3 sections - ¹vocals - ²percussion & ³winds however I have yet to learn - seriously learn how to or when to record in STEREO or MONO ? ! ! Exa: friends that have there home studio 🎙 say: they record all vocals (Mono) & WITHOUT ANY REVERB BUT I feel REVERB helps out vocal artists so the don't strain. However is a vocal to be kept mono and add efx or stereo and not too much efx? ² I have no idea if to record percussion instruments in stereo exa: timbales and Congas etc etc ... aaand the same for winds such as trumpets , trombone etc etc. Sir... what am I missing in basic 101 terms here? 😕 thanks for your Guidance and suggestions 🙏.
Well it depends. It is advised to record pre fader but send the vocalist the mix post fader. That way you are recording a dry signal but the vocalist receives a wet signal in there cans. So they hear reverb but you are recording them dry. The Advantage to this is that you are not committed to the reverb settings and can change them later on in the mixing process if required, whilst still getting the benefit of the vocalist hearing reverb whilst they perform. This is a safer option for beginners. In regards to recording a vocalist in stereo, this is only applicable if you have dual microphones recording them as they perform. Otherwise you are just recording a Mono signal (one microphone) on a stereo track. Recording a vocalist with two microphones on a stereo track (a true stereo recording ) will give the recording stereo width as the time difference of the soundwave hitting each microphone and the shape of the room will make the recording from each mic slightly different. For example duplicating a mono track and panning one hard left and one hard right won't be stereo, as it is the difference between the left and right side which creates stereo width. 😎👌
@@jojomarino7327 omg... thank you for teaching a beginner my friend! I was doing it all wrong especially w the recording reverb instead of pre-fader to the vocalist without recording the effect. Your awesome Sir. And how silly of me Sir.... I really really thought copying a solo to the next track and Panning one hard-left and one hard-rte would make it stereo... how ignorant of me Sir. I'm grateful for your reply and the knowledge you passed on to the Rookie trying to learn in my humble home studio if you will. God Bless and thanks Mr. JoJo Marino.
Still stereo, unless you're playing a recording that is mono. It won't sound as good doing that though. Stereo is created by differences in the left and right channel. So the left and right waveforms are different. If you get a mono signal, duplicate it and pan it left and right, It's still mono.
Why is mono compatibility still relevant/important when basically every means we have of listening to music these days is stereo? Sorry if this is a dumb question!
Sadly people listen on phones and Bluetooth speakers which are often mono. Also in clubs,often the play back in the bar is mono. So it might sound like a banger on the dance floor but when summed to mono it becomes a blurry mess. All those people at the bar just keep drinking and are not lured to the d floor 😂. I think your right though. It's not that important now days.
'A monorail is a single series of rails, a unirail would be one single rail'.MONO(root), in this context, means COMPOUND UNITY. The word Monotheism does NOT always pertain to Numerology or Quantitave Measurement.Again, it can mean- like the song- 'We are Family'....the true Definition for Mono= ALONE,and this requires a Spiritual Interpretation and not a Numerical one.UNI vs STEREO is the more appropriate Bellwether,not MONO vs Stereo.❤
Thanks for the explanation - that's an interesting way to interpret the word for sure. I'll probably stick to Mono vs. Stereo though since people use these terms to quickly discern the type of signal they're working with.
I kinda feel like mixing in mono is pointless......... 90% of playback systems in 2021 are stereo..... maybe not in clubs but at that point you can not even hear a good mix or not.
Some albums prior to 1969 were made to be listened to in mono (since most radios before 1969 were mono and stereo was very expensive back then) so their respective stereo mixes suck since not much effort was put in for them. Do your research.

The channel that makes sense.Here we talk business

That EQ settings make a big improvement. Thanks 4 the video

U guys are really working hard , appreciate ur efforts

Amazing tutorials mate
Love all your videos. Nice song choice on the ford song in the background, he's one of my favorites :)
Congratulations Sage ❤️ For Crossing 100000 Subs 🔥❤️
Sage audio is the best ongod
thanks for video. It is very helpful
SUBSCRIBED! Very structural, equally Amazing!
great stuff thanks sir
👌🏻 I like to use both actually.
THX
ok but when u export the song you export beat and vocals on stereo or in mono
listening in stereo is the best thing
Amazing!
Have just connected my Cambridge am to my7 Cambridge CD player but am only getting mono playback. Any idea as to what I may have done wrong?
This channel is amazing.
What is the songs name? Sounds like Ciara. Awesome track.
2:50 what this plugins name?
Its stock plugin from Logic Pro x

@@UniqueTouch No worries , it's a tricky concept to wrap your head around at first. Hope this helped!
Though the concepts are basic, The way you teach it makes it not for beginners..
what if i put L & R speaker on top of each other, now is it stereo or mono ?
@@ergophonic what if i got YAMAHA MSP5 ? Low End is balanced as well as HF !! 😵💫😵💫

Great
I just heard shit I’ve never heard in my life in this video. How my phone speakers were able to put sound behind my ears will puzzle me forever

What song is that in background of the 7th tip? It sounds really nice

Last.
People that listen to music in mono are the same people who watch high-budget movies in cam quality, I have no respect for them.

Lol
Bro add on every video is annoying that's the main reason you're losing listener's
