Great explanation
How do you reduce bleed from drum cymbals in a live performance?
Within the drums alone? Gating helps, editing drum hits and sample replacement as a last resort.
Great lesson, much appreciated
Great explanation ! Thanks bro !
Nice job)) how can i contact you ? I usually record my drums on 1 mic as multitrack but i never felt happy with the mixing and mastering on my drums sound . the engineers usually put another snare and kick etc . but i really want the sound of my drum recording to sound better and heavier without replacing anything
@@elyehage7776 Hi, you can contact me through my website. Word of advice: Mixing starts in the recording phase, Mastering begins in the mixing phase. Focus on the basics - i.e. great performance, well-tuned instrument, good recording environment, keeping recorded peaks under -10dBFS, good microphone placements, good phase relationships. Get those things right and you are 80% there before you open a plugin.
I'm a middle-out guy, processing subgroups first, then fixing issues below and sweetening above. I suppose this falls under "hybrid"...?
Heretic! 😀 In some cases, when something is less important, it's exactly what I would do.
Yeah. I find it's a good compromise between finesse and speed. Establishes a shape quick enough that I don't lose perspective and then I get to indulge the fiddler in me (below) and the toddler that loves instant gratification (above). 😂 Great video by the way. Subbed. 👍🏼👍🏼
a Mac mouse doesn't have a left and right just one click. so should I just use a pc mouse
@@AllisonBonner-jq9be if that's an option for you. I'm on PC myself, so some things may not translate the same. I believe if you option right click, it does the same thing.
which gate did you use??
No gate needed, manual edits.
Before the reveal, I hear distortion on the low end on an and d. On AirPod
I have used the CLA Nx Stereo for a couple of years on my Sennheiser HD 400 Pro and love it! :)
Just bought this this morning! Looking forward to playing around with it! Also great to Discover your channel mate :D
This is crraaazzy good stuff!!
Thanks 👍
A - D - X are oversampled IMO. This is my first answer listening to from my tv. I turn on the monitors and I realised the opposite situation! Great video!
I try to do bottom up as much as I CAN, but I certainly do not exclude the idea of top down. Most of the times I see myself doing BOTH, and at the end of the day, if you reached the sound you wanted you got the job done. You cant listen to a track and guess if it was top down or bottom up mixed (that doesn't even make sense). So everything is valid to achieve the desired sound.
Personally, I'm dead against the top down, having tested the results of both approaches. Getting it right from the source is my primary focus and bottom up mixing aligns with this philosophy for me.
Rip I got 0/3
Nice bro 👍
the short example was very clear!!!...thanks for the video dude!
Relative Listening.
Bruh , I chose A, D, X 😭
Bcy. But I can only BARELY tell in the cymbals
Yes
The best video I've seen on this "topic."
The oversampled ones sound so much more open. Like there’s room to put your feet up in the mix and stretch out. A, D and X sound more cluttered. Not bad but I definitely prefer B C and Y. Great tests!
Yes but inturn more 'Perceived' low end is coming thru. Pretty sure Pro's understand this
What I explain in the video has nothing to do with perception, it's about understanding the fundamentals of how a compressor works. The resulting tone could skew more low-centric, and in most cases it will, but this depends on how the compressor is reacting to the bandwidth limited signal in the sidechain. Not all compressors will react the same way and it depends greatly on the nature of the signal that's left in the sidechain. But don't believe me, we just met, try it out for yourself.
Big thanks for this video! It was pretty easy to hear the oversampled ones (B, C, Y), However, since I have been hoarding the "analog modeling" plugins recently, this is a very good reminder about the actual sound quality that can be achieved. Thank you 🙏
You're welcome
I couldn't pay attention because I was listening to the riff in The background
Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome!
I like to do mid straight mixing, having a template then going from there lol jk
BCY, totally audiolble on 10$ headphones. More oversampling - less high freq for me in this test. But high freq almost always anotal, aliasing atonal - no problem here at all
Hello Daniel! I hope you're well ! Thanks for the great informations about this wonderful new Waves plugin "Spice Rider". Sorry to go a bit out of context !... Please ! could you tell me with which Virtual instrements, you programmed your " Drums and your BASS " ?... because they Sound Really Great !!! 👌👌👌👍 Thanks again and Good Continuation !!!..
Thanks 👍 The bass is Retrograde Bass by Teletone Audio. The drums are a combination of SSD4 by Slate Digital and the stock Boom VI from Avid.
Anytime ☺️
B/C/Y

Thanks, you didn t told that those clip plugins sound very good, might be better than Fab filter. It would be nice to buy them apart for the standard track plugins as well, if possible
i’m still waiting for Eddy Grant to say “heeeey”
Power bottom mixer here
I've only just started playing around with home studio production, but I've done a little bit of live mixing and some studio and location recording in the past. The only time I would imagine myself doing a strictly top-down mix is if it's a live recording with a limited number of tracks and you want your mix to sound like the performance. Otherwise, I don't see the point, as if you spend a lot of time on a mix, then work your way down, by the time you've played with the tracks the top-level mix will sound different and you'll have to spend time re-doing it. I'd do a very basic top-level mix first, to see where everything sits and plan what I'm going to do to the tracks, but the real mix would come at the end. Maybe that's inefficient, but I'm still working this stuff out. Good video!
I tried the cla nx one. Works great for mixing on headphones but it seems to take a toll on my CPU which gives me time outs.
Yeah, audio system specs can be a delicate balancing act to get right if you're on a PC especially. Throw in the need to update drivers and software regularly and you're bound to get issues at some point. I'm using an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X which handles large sessions pretty well, but occasionally I find the limit with certain plugins.
@@SPLMixing i’m on my dying 2015 macbook pro haha. When i do large sessions i have to bounce or freeze a some tracks and even then i still get time outs every now and then. Probably because of plugins like these
Bottom up is more logical and makes more sense. I don t see anyone starting a house from the roof down.
can't find my headsett on the. Sennheiser hd 400 pro and Sennheiser 200. and Sennheiser 280 pro
The Waves website says Sennheiser HD 280 pro is supported. I also use them in the video. Have you updated the plugin to the latest version?
Use the headphone drop down menu and click legacy, you should see the 280 pros there, not sure about the others.
Very informative, great doco!
It does the same as Sonarworks but for 3 times the money.
Measurable or just a feeling?@@SPLMixing
Check it out here: waves.alzt.net/splmixing
Is this track uploaded somewhere.... i like it a lot!!!!!
the hp filter sounds higher than 60hz to me, what you you think?
It definitely rolls off slightly higher, but not much. You might be hearing the effect of the lower dynamic band working the low end.
Thank You, Daniel, Thank You SPL (Mixing)!! Really useful video.
I grabbed NX as a way to test out the EQ correction for my Sony 7506 cans. On one hand, I absolutely hate working on headphones but figured it time to join the rest of the world or at least have the option to reference them as an option. One feature that really irritates me is the head tracking. Why is that necessary? It drive me nuts having it on so I'm thankful to be able to turn it off. What is the actual benefit to head tracking? It seems to me it's just a technical gimmick that ultimately does nothing to help or speed up any task. What am I missing?
It's simulating the environment as realistically as possible, so that if you want to feel like you're in a real room without headphones, you can experience that feeling 100%. Put NX on a reverb or delay and add some movement using your own head, pretty cool.
Sorry, but after watching your video twice I still don't get what you mean. How are we supposed to reduce boominess in the bass then?
Hi@@SPLMixing OK. I get it now... I completely misunderstood because I guess I wasn't really listening after all. I was mixing up EQ with Compressor. Thank you so much for getting back to me! Paul
How do you build the tube traps ? Are they more effective than super chunks ?
No, they serve a different purpose. Superchunks work well from floor to ceiling in all room corners. For the tube traps, I followed a RUclips tutorial I found. Still, you can get similar results using regular panel traps placed around the perimeter of your room, with less effort and space requirements. I didn't know this when I made the tube traps, but I have since learned otherwise. Don't waste your time with tube traps. The data does not conclusively support them being any better than regular insulation panel absorbers.
@@SPLMixing thank you !
Hi and Thanks for your helpful video! one question that remains is why you pulled the close attack kick mic track more forward, like two amplitudes, before the in-mic and the third kick mic. could you please explain? thanks :)
It's to align the waveforms and have them work together as one cohesive sound. This typically makes the instrument more punchy and fuller sounding.
@@SPLMixing ok i get this point. i just couldn't see why all other tracks were moved just a little fore- or backwards, to fit the main track. but the attack mic track was way ahead bofre the other kick tracks. or. did i see this one wrong? thanks for answering :)
The attack track is more about texture than getting waveforms lined up, which is itself about extracting the most bass information from the two or more tracks. It's been a while since I made this video, but I'd say that the attack didn't have any relevant "partner" to align with, as sometimes it's not clear how to make the waveforms line up. I definitely recommend checking out my drum recording video for a more in depth understanding of how phase problems can be adjusted using the microphones. The correlation meter techniques I use in the video are a great way to overcome the obstacle of not being able to "see" a clear answer when the waveforms are complex. It's also a pretty fool proof method.
