How would you approach this, if you're mixing live ... the tools you there suggest builds upon the the total latency like crazy, and way beyond anything acceptable. My problem is that every musician in the band, have each it's own ambassador sitting in the audience, and are likely to blame the sound guy, for the somewhat poorly arranged piece of music?
Live sound is a little different. It depends heavily on the sound of the room and equipment available. If the room or venue is not treated for reflections, that will impact the sound. The first thing you need to do is balance the room. Then instruments and vocalists. Analogue gear helps since you won’t get the latency you get from running all of the software. There are also tools like Gullfoss Live which is built to run on low latency. That will give you some adaptive/dynamic EQ… My best advice is work with the tools you have and don’t concern yourself with others that may be in the audience that blame the sound techs.
I've done this on and off for nearly 40 years now - and expirienced the gradual turning into the digital domain, and have learned the hard way to simplify my mixes, by utilising as few channels as possible - which works, if the band knows what they're doing - so the point I tried to get through here was, that plugins are no substitute for musicianship I'm afraid - why then trying to repair a bad musical arrangements? It's not ducking in any form, but say inversions in the chords played, taking into account that musicians playing in each their own lanes is the recipe for failure - in the live sound environment, know the rules and when to break them .... @@InspiredWithAC
Oh, got it. And I completely agree with you and that philosophy - less is often better. And as much as tools can be helpful, they definitely can’t fix bad musical arrangements. And live mixes will always expose imperfections faster than recording in a controlled environment.
I’ve only had Smart:EQ 4 for a month or so, but hands-down it’s better than Neutron (strictly from an EQ perspective). Neutron comes with other modules such as a compressor, exciter (for harmonic distortion/saturation) and a few others. So it really depends on what your needs are. But from a EQ feature perspective, I think Sonible did a fantastic job with the Smart:EQ.
Correct. Elements focuses more on the Assistant’s “Ai” capabilities (which I personally find mediocre). It’s good for getting general mixes, but they unfortunately only give you the module controls in their Standard and Advanced versions.
So far the best explanation of unmasking frequencies. Thanks
Much appreciated. Glad it was clear. Thanks for watching.
Why have i never ran into your channel man a lot of help bro thank you!!!!!!
🙌🏽
With this type of content I assumed you had like 100k subs lol keep it going I definitely needed this
Much appreciated. Thanks for watching!
you just got a new subscriber brother. congrats and thank you
👏🏽👏🏽 glad the content is helpful. Much appreciated.
Use the Kick and Bass as an example on Sonible
I really don’t understand the FL tutorial you did
The unmasking you did on FL parametric EQ 2 do it with Sonible please sir
Thx bro keep on posting new tutorials God Bless
Much appreciated. Blessings!
Thanks alot, this is helping so much❤️🤝🏼
Awesome! Glad it helped.
SmartEQ seems like a clear winner in workflow and features right? I'm going to try them and compare them today, will see how it goes :-)
Strictly for unmasking - yes. Though SmartEQ has been a bit buggy in FL Studio.
Amazing Thank you
Absolutely. Thanks for watching

which one you prefer neutron 4 or smart:Eq 4?

This Neutron is not the Elements version, right?
Correct. Elements focuses more on the Assistant’s “Ai” capabilities (which I personally find mediocre). It’s good for getting general mixes, but they unfortunately only give you the module controls in their Standard and Advanced versions.
@@InspiredWithAC Thank you for answering me, Adrian!
