I thought I knew how to master before and just wanted some tips for what to use in Cubase. Now I want to redo everything I've ever mastered. Thanks for your videos Dom - they're really amazing.
OMG here's another ah-ha! moment courtesy of Dom. Blending a mix with a parallel comp channel + minimal amounts of many plugins to gently address a mix's needs. I love having my mind ripped open. Thanks for all you share, Mr. Sigalas🙏
Thanks so much for this (and all your other fabulous content). What I really love about your tutorials is that they are teaching me how to LISTEN before and after I take actions. Invaluable.
I have been wanting to learn how to master my own material for years. Dom? Your mastering chain has given me the BEST results I have ever managed. Learning so much from you, the master of 'mastering' (no pun intended lol). RESPECT to you for sharing such insights to creating cleaner, larger mixes without breaking anything!
Thank you, Dom for this great tutorial. An interesting experiment would be to null test (aka delta test) the properly mastered version vs. the slap-on-a-limiter version. I might just try that on one of my tracks. And thank you, Steinberg, for not just trying to sell us stuff, but for hiring Professor Dom to teach us how to use the tools we've already got.
Hello Dom. I don't know how to send signal from my mix track to the master bus track because i don't know what kind type track is the master bus. In the video it seems to be a group track but in the mix track i have not seen to route it to the master bus{group track}. I use Asio Presonus Firestudio digital mixer Studiolive 16.4.2. Thanks
would have been nice to compare the whole chain with only keeping the limiter and/or maximizer with the other plugins off. and even better could be to compare this whole chain and only limiter but of the same resulting loudness level.
Thanks Dom, really cool video with some great insights, but I am surprised you used dithering as from what I know, it’s only used when converting a song to a lower bit depth or sample rate. Now if you’re working 24bit 48khz and export in 24 48, why would you use it? Isn’t that going to add more noise to the song?
I am new to Cubase. The first thing that I noticed is that there is no Master Fader in the mixer (something absurd for me)!!! So how to create a Master fader, and how to always have it as default in the mixer?
Hi Dom can you tell me the name of hardware you used to control in Cubase while Mixing and Mastering??? I love to have stuff like this for my studio.....looking forward to hear from u....love your tutorial
This is great information but I'm lost at figuring out how you actually get all these plugins exactly where you want them. I can see that you are mastering after you've mixed your song but How are you getting a mixed song into your Cubase after you've mixed it? I know, dumb question. I'm trying to do all of my mastering on my stereo out channel. I take it that's not really the best way. Thank you! Love your videos by the way.
@@dennisramirez1989 Thanx , yeah i thnik i will just get the pro Do you know what i do if i have to reinstall the computer do i get a serial i can use ? Thank you
Limiter + GClip + GClip - this is my mastering chain. Isn't it strange that for such a long time Cubase doesn't have its own hard\soft clipper? I think it is.
at the moment I have a very creative period and want to finish many tracks. I always come back to this video for the mastering process, it is golden! Thanks DOM :)
I’m curious as you, as from what I know, dithering is necessary when going from 24 48 to a lower bit or sample rate. Otherwise, wouldn’t it add more noise to the sound?
