the amount of times ive gone "how is their bass so wide? that's not allowed" or "how is that snare so loud, the pros say mixes should be -6db". hearing your take on guidelines was great
Jesus christ, extremely underrated channel. Was able to apply this mastering guide to a completely different genre, and it sounds amazing. Props! also the way you went over multiband compression actually helped me understand what I was listening for in it, and how the attack of the compression effects the transients n shit. really cool stuff!
If 1 single sound has highs that go all the way up but the rest of the mix stops at 17k then by low passing the track where the majority of the highs stop (17k for example) you kinda prevent that sound from standing out of the mix more than every other sound brightness wise. Removing the top can help other elements sound brighter compared to it. If you try the trick on your mix and it sounds not as good then I would say go with whichever you feel sounds best. Sometimes that high contrast adds to the mix sometimes it sticks out in a bad way.
@@SlimeCinema That makes more sense! Why wouldn't you just low pass that one sound that was sticking out though? I'll note that I almost strictly use bottom-up mixing + relatively transparent mastering so the techniques you used in the video were new to me.
@@01kyu so I can do it exactly at the place where the others sounds start to have presence. You could always just refer to the master eq then go in and fix individual sounds to find the spot in each sound that stands out bottom up but that just takes a bit more time

Name the track 'Dariacore Mastering Tutorial'
could you explain again why you cut at 17khz? I get that filtering can glue but you also end up losing audible high end so it didnt make sense to me.
