I’m getting an error trying to download as well.
Plz one long video on reverb and delay
Gosh, too kind. God bless you guys.
thank you thank you thank you :) Jah bless! also for the compression vid
I'm speechless. I don't know if I've ever seen such great content on YT, learning-wise.
Thank you!
@@masteringcom make more bro please😢
one such revolution is being made in india by sir Alakh Pandey. he is providing education to people who can afford it at a very minimal price
I'm in heaven with these long series
Me too 😭
If only it could last for all eternity. 9 hours is too short a time.
🙌
Honestly 🥲 it’s amazing 🤩
I was hoping for more videos like this! 🎉🎉
This is the type of course I’d pay $100 for. To have it free on RUclips is so crazy. It builds upon itself and takes you in great detail through everything. Big thanks to everyone involved!
Fr yeah
I went to Full Sail University for Audio Production, and you’re doing a better job of teaching EQ than my teachers did 💯 Great job!
I have a parasocial friendship with this guy after already watching him talk about compression for 10 hours. Where's my bitter and twisted crew?
right here!
Lol bitter and twisted gang!!
Lets go!!!
Same haha
I like Dylan already. I wasn’t expecting he’d be the one to teach eq after finishing compression, but the moment I saw his name, I was like yaaaaaaaaaaay. Good teacher indeed.
First Compression, now EQ... 😊 we're forever indebted 🙏
182k views on a 9 hour video is insane and deserved. This course is so well made and constructed. Thank you so much for releasing this.
Nah it deserves a heck of a lot more
As a Composer, Software Developer and Trainer I take off my hat an take a bow for you for this fantastic piece of education.
Where ar eyou located!?
My name is Jace Daniel and woudl be open to a collab if you are!
2 hours in he taught me so much now I'm picking up resonances in his voice at 2.5k
😂😂
BROOO me too hahaga
DO MORE, LIMITER, REVERB, SYNTHS, EVERYTHING AND GET DYLAN A RAISE HE IS A KING 👑
Pay the man
panning panning panning and stereo field things generally would be good, its not to be neglected
WE LOVE DYLAN
I'm a singer/songwriter and tried to work with a few producers in the past but never could find someone to really match my style (or my budget), so I've decided to learn production myself, which sounds SO overwhelming to say the least, especially when I never intended to. I was nearly about to give up on it all after scrolling through so many complicated YT tips and stuff, when I came across your channel. You guys literally saved me from giving up on this. I went from being so completely confused and frustrated, to so excited to learn because you actually teach people to UNDERSTAND, rather than just throw tips at people like so many other channels. EQ now went from "a thing I use to make good stuff sound better and bad stuff sound less bad" to a tool to use with so much more intention. I am blown away by the fact that your content is free and it's such incredible quality, I love your philosophy on teaching mastering first---you're so right, it's so much better to have this overhead view to know what things should sound like to know what it needs---and everything suddenly seems possible for me now. I'm less than 2 hours into this video, I'm taking notes like crazy and just have to thank you guys so much. tytytyty!!!!
would love to hear some of your work!
Im in the same boat - best of luck 💯
Exactly the same here ❤
This guy is a natural teacher. Fantastic instruction. Thanks for this!
Right
Thank you for allowing me to make music. My album would have taken 2+ years in order to afford to hire mixing engineers. Now I can use these skills and tools to do the best I can do myself. You're truly a gift.
I would never guess there was enough subject matter in equalizera to talk about it for 9 hours. Out of curiosity, I am gonna give it a listen.
Like a compression 10 hours long video, this one is great as well and really looking forward for the video about using SPACE dynamics in a mix like reverb, delay and other effects!
👀
@@masteringcom😂
@@masteringcomDefinitely need such long course videos on Reverbs, Delays, Saturation+Distortion, etc. The EQ and Compression videos have helped me immensely and I'm sure you guys will be changing the whole music production community with these series! ❤❤
I NEED this one
Yea I definitely wanna see one on reverbs an delays for sure
You're a net positive to the human race, thanks to you, other humans will be expressing themselves through their art more clearly than they did before watching this video. Thank you so much!
The kind of videos that makes your life better
Again, as with the compression course, I waited until I finished the whole course to write a comment. This course is truly a one of a kind that you can find on youtube, it offers so much information and if you have the patience to watch it all, you are rewarded with so much knowledge and helpful tips. Thank you so much!
Now that I've finally watched the entire video and the compression course as well, I wanna thank you for putting this much knowledge out for free. You have no idea how grateful I am for this. I'm looking forward to apply what I've learned
Thank you so much for releasing this content for free. This is exactly what I’ve been searching for to get a better understanding of EQ without being overwhelmed. Can’t wait to check the compression one next
This series of long courses are some of the best resources I've seen on youtube, the compression video was superb, can't wait to watch this one and I hope you guys release others... what a time to be alive!!
YESS LETS GO! Ive been watching the compressor course and was HOPING you do a long course for EQ, thank you man!
Thank you for this. I just finished the video. I've been watching it in pieces over the last couple of weeks - taking what I've been learning - then applying them to my mixes. You've helped me immensely.
I'm about 3 hours into your 10-hour compression video. It is great as well. I absolutely love your style of teaching.
A lot of people who teach have forgotten what it feels like to know nothing - so they tend to overlook questions that newbies like me have. Not so with this course. Outstanding work. Thank you again.
I got to the point where i was sick and tired of relying on other people for mixing etc. Ive been after something like this for a very longtime. Thank you!!
Thank you so much! EQ has been an area that has frustrated me for years but this has helped me understand that i need to train my ears and concentrate.
Thanks you a lot. I am a person who can´t afford courses, pro teachers or pro equipment, but try to educate myself with I have at hand and this type of content makes it possible. I have the dream of working in a great studio one day. Like for real, thanks for your help ❤
Our pleasure.
I bought this one, they gave me the compression one as a gift and some more. They are awesome. I thinks this company is one of the best where you can really learn.
As a sound designer and producer switching to mixing and mastering these long form videos are perfect for me. Thank you
These long form videos are unbelievable. And to release this amount of IP for free is admirable. Well done.
your long series are what artists like us need rn, thank you
I had recording classes in college, but we didnt really cover mixing too in-depth. Performance degrees kinda have to focus on the in-studio stuff which honestly has been invaluable for me as a freelance recording artist, but I always felt like I needed more. These courses have filled in a lot of gaps for me. Even though I felt like I knew about 80% of the information having a more structured approach to mixing my own stuff has upped my game enormously. Thanks for putting this out.
Today i'm 9 hours in compression course was thinking about long eq course! and you did it! thank you guys!
Just starting now. Did the compression one over two days and i cannot believe how much better my tunes sound already. Awesome work fellas 🎉
The fact this is free on RUclips, thank you so much for this information.. I’m only on the second module but the information is so in depth! Appreciate this channel, thanks gents!
The best concrete explanation of how to EQ that exists on the internet. I've watched a bunch of other EQ videos, but this one, this has substance that helps solidify the concepts in my mind. Thank you for doing this.
The ear training I get from these long courses put my mer ear training class for my audio degree to shame. Y'all really out here doing the work for free and I can't thank you enough for that
I have finally come to the end of this course. I've learnt soo much from this video and have made noticeable progress in EQ'ing. Before I had no idea what I was doing and now I can actually use EQ effectively in my tracks. I am now going to practice everything I've learnt and will defo check out the compression and reverb courses as well. Thanks for the video😁.
I legitimately don't understand how something this amazing can be absolutely free... Thank you so much!
Wow. I finished the compression one over 3 days and it really helped out with making those settings and dialing in compression. I may have even commented and asked for thus one next. I'm going to be a pro level mixer in 10 hours.
This is actually the most in depth video that ive seen that explains EQ... Glad i found it
You guys are amazing. Between this and the compression video you guys have helped me immensely!
Thank you for this video. There’s so much to learn and there are very few in depth tutorials such as this. It’ll take me a couple of days to get through it and make notes, and probably watch it again.
your long courses EQ, compression, reverb etc. are game changing. i learn so much. i want more and more video like that for any subject of mixing. thanks a lot they are amazing. ouffff!!! love it!!!!!!
Thank you so much for this incredible 9-hour course on mixing and EQ! I learned so much and really appreciate the time and effort you put into making such a comprehensive and easy-to-follow guide. Your channel is a fantastic resource for aspiring musicians and producers. Keep up the amazing work!
Subbed and liked before I even watched. To do something for so many hours like this for the community is awesome. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this. As a lifetime musician, I put off learning recording techniques due to ringing in my ears. Imagine my surprise, that even with the ringing, I can hear everything you've demonstrated here, all of it. I may not be good for producing others...but I'm definitely empowered to produce my own music now. Wonderful.
I'm 1 hour 40 into this and finding it extremely helpful. Thank you all for sharing this.🌟🌟
These series with the compressor one is amazing. This is really what i needed and it's free!
I was struggling to work with different reverb plugins because all of them have different parameters an hour ago. And I quit, I wished if someone made a clear and concise guide on reverbs. And just now this video showed up in my feed. Saw a comment about this being part of a series and checked your channel and I feel blessed to find a video on reverb. Thank you so much. This week I'm gonna study hard about reverbs.
I was just looking for EQ videos and thought to myself - it would be so cool, if there was a video about it just as about compressor… and here you are lol
These videos are so good! Just finished the compression and this one, and they are by far the best learning tools I've encountered about these too topics. If I had any money I'd totally participate in your courses if they are anything like these videos.
I've read several books 📚 went to school, and watched hours of tutorials, and this, by far, is the best video out there without a doubt!!!! The frequency spectrum chart alone is priceless!
This is definitely one of the best videos about mixing, along with the other videos of this series. It goes in-depth enough to understand but explaining it in a really nice ways. I can't wait to see how my mixes become after these tutorials! Much love, keep up the good work.
I was waiting for this. You guys are the best. Thank you!
Thanks a lot, I just finished the 10 hours compression course and i learned a ton from it! I couldn't thank you enough
This is just amazing. By far the best video about EQing I’ve seen.
Thank you! ❤
Not just watching but taking notes too📝. Thank you so much for all these longer videos ❣️🤝🏻
Thank you so much y’all! I just made it to the end of this and can’t believe that you’ve given this away for free. It’s an amazing course and Dylan is a frickin awesome teacher. Thank you 🙏
You guys are awesome! Thank you for doing this and posting for free. I hope this video does well. Even Berklee didn't drop this much knowledge on me. Not finished watching yet but, in the process. Thank you once again!
These classes are great! I’ve watched compression and I’m in the middle of reverb and, now, EQ. Great stuff!
Wow I was hoping you would release one like this! The compressor one has been so helpful!
feel really blessed with these amount of free educational content. can't thank u enought
These blokes provide so much value it’s insane. Thank you so much.
Gentleman, I have no words. I am so excited about this video, cause Im still digesting the one with 10 hours of comp!
This is insane.. You people are awesome, thank you !! Can't wait to follow this course :)
Dude that is one of the greatest videos I’ve ever seen! Thank you so much! This will bring my music to the next step! You are the goat 🐐
I can't even begin how much favour you're doing to us small producers !!!! can't even thank you enough, handing out knowledge which would cost tons of money !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THanks a million bro !!
OMG. I love you. I watched the compressor course and never thought you will release one for eq too. tthhaank you!!
This is a huge gift, thank you! Very accessible and well-presented, while still being extremely thorough. Essential watching that I wish I’d had access to years ago. Thanks again!
Thanks Rob!! can't wait.. Always love your courses!!
I had years and years struggle with using compressors and eqs and when I say years I really mean it
it was so intense that I just left effecting sounds and just tried to going with make everything great at start cause when you knew and learned everything and still having no clue and new information just make you more confuse you just leave it aside
watching compressor course and now eq course was just awakening and just putting everything together not to just what to do but know and understanding what is gonna work for situations for you and what you want and need
now I have references things to check and intentions to do things and having full control to step back
your compressor course was stepping my game up for like years the next day... now with this eq course it's just finished I'm done I'm the best I have full control on anything I want
I just can't thank your team and my man Dylan ever the way I should just wish you the bests
Thank you for giving real in depth info on topics that most just skim by.
This is incredibly generous of you. I love you guys ❤
3 hours in and wow, this is absurdly useful. Thank you for giving all this out for free!
This is by far the best tutorial on that topic! Thank you very much for sharing!
This is really an amazing effort! Thanks for sharing this and, again, Dylan: you're a really fantastic teacher!
Thank you, guys, for putting this course online. It added a lot of in-depth knowledge to my developing skills as did the 10 hours cause on compression. Again, thousand thanks!! Keep it up!! ;)
second course im watching. dylan is such a good teacher. keeps every minute interesting and easy to learn
thank you once again! each time i come back to the tutorial i learn i learn so much good stuff!
Yes love you guys for this. Please go through everything. Go through reverb, delays, flangers, everything to do with that category, ect. ect. Love it!!! This channel is a gold mine.
Watch this space…
@@masteringcom👀. Also, I don't know if this is something you could do, but I think note arrangement should be one you do. Having a good master and mix comes down to how you layer, and ect. Not too many good videos on how to space things out on the piano roll, or on the general recording level. How to mash cords together that sound kind odd on their own, but together, they make up the puzzle. Stuff like that too. I know this is a mixing, and mastering channel mostly, but sometimes a issue can be solved just back at the notes too. I'll stand buy, don't worry. 👀.
This 9-Hour Course was absolutely worth it, if you are a beginner or even advanced, you will need this.
I was waiting for this video like It was my last Christmas present ever, God bless you guys ❤
I'm russian. Your video about compression helped me a lot. I'm sure this video will help me more. Thanks for lessons
Coming to this one after I am done with the compression one 🔥🔥 my new favorite channel guys
Just finished the EQ course after finishing the Compressor course last week. Best videos on RUclips hands down! Can't wait for the Reverb video.
I wanna thank you you from bottom of my heart ❤️ this is a best EQ video on RUclips 💯💯💯
WOW. Thank you! I already loved the compression course. Very curious about this one. And Dillon is absolutely great 🌻
Great video, worth all the hours, learned a lot. Exspecially the things being said in between the main points, to give it more context, that's what broughtened my EQ horizon a lot. Thnxxx dylan, future dylan, and all the guys who worked on the course
excellent. With the compression course, that's 19.5 hours and 24 pages of notes done. Both clear & well structured. Thanks, i await the spatial course :)
i have been searching years for this, little did i know it wasnt released yet 😅 THANK YOU
thank you so much! I just finished the video after a few days of watching in parts. can't thank you enough for this! i know so much more now
Just in awe !!! you guys are the real GOAT of mastering. Thank you so much.
One of the best thing I have watched in my whole life!
Great eq class! This helped me a great deal. Thanks for being so generous with your knowledge 😊
I can see your knowledge, hard work and dedication. Thanks for this video
Thank You for sharing this with the community. No tutorial goes into this amount of detail and I'm baffled as to how this is free.
I am watching this course and thinking: Can't believe its actually for free!! Thank you guys so much ❤ !! I am a producer from Brazil and its really expensive to buy good quality courses here, taking the current prices in our country. You have no idea how much contents like these mean for people in the position that I am right now!
I just can't believe it. This is amazing. I have been trying to find content like this for EQ for a long time. So happy I found this. And FREE?? Thank you!
W this guy. You prolly wont fully understand how helpful this video is to most of us. Thank you for taking your time making this, very much appreciated🙏🏾🙏🏾
Wow, thank you so much for making this available for free! I've always wanted to take a course like this but never had the money. I'm so excited right now and I'm only 40 minutes in lol
