Thank you for the great and informative videos Streaky. Also, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the tones you use to talk. It gets the attention that got us here in this channel
Mate this is quality you've developed here. Like I open it videos without reading the title because I know there's gonna be no chatting for the sake of chatting.
Thanks for this video. Maybe you can use a bad track in RX so we can see actually how the problem areas would look like in RX, and what you do to fix them. Thanks!
that's a really efficient approach in the long run. getting the first orientation right and then stick with it because you conviced yourself by actually interprating data - that's how engineers work. good flow you got there mate. cheers!
Off topic, but Neumann KH310s or HEDD Type 20 MK2? The HEDDs are a bit big for my room but I’m leaning towards them for their feature-set (plus I don’t monitor that loud). Great reviews for both speakers, but unfortunately I can’t test them out side by side.
Sometimes before real mastering i shave the transient a little bit just to ensure when compression to not have too much clipping... Always better more dynamics that a stereo squashed waveform
Hi streaky! Great video. Would love to see some examples of clicking and anomalies in tracks you encounter. What does that look like in RX? Cause it always looks very dense to me. I hear it before I see anything normally. Thank you!
Thank you for explaining your steps, Streaky. I was especially curious about your favorite sample rate as I'm producing in 48kHz and I'm sending one of my mixes your way in a week or two. Glad you won't have to resample it :)
@@Streaky_com Hey Streaky! I’ve done a lot of testing and I found the source of my problem. My RME fireface 802 is a very noiseless interface, my rode NT2A does pick up background noise but it’s treatable. The issue are my walls, they are thin like it can pick up the laundry being done right next door and that’s what I realize. That being said, do you know any booth frames that isolate the outside noise with a panel built in that isn’t too costly? My budget is $400-$500 for a sound booth and I found a Merino double layer wool blanket for 180 x 210 cm but I want to make sure I can have my voice isolated with a huge difference and barely have to use a gate
I‘ve heard that analog gear working better when using higher sample rate,such as convert a 48k audio to 192k then send to analog gear would be get better quality than using original 48k file.Is this myth true?
@@timgreig1704 but it can have information in the very high frequencies, which can play havoc with your chain. Higher sample rate doesn’t always equal better, it’s context dependent.
@@tobiasjone What problems are you talking about, this is news to me? Most quality analog outboard operates well beyond 20K because it has unlimited sample rate, there are plenty of devices with a response to 200K or even higher.
You forgot the most important step, which is to separate the track out into 4 stems using "music rebalance", these days i do this with practically every track i master, cause it just gives way more control.
Shouldn’t need to be rebalancing at the mastering stage. That’s not mastering. In that case you need to go back to the production phase and re produce in a way that things are naturally balanced and not too busy in one given frequency range. Good production sounds better than most peoples masters.
@@natebrown4939 What are you talking about, i'm mastering tracks for other people. You think i'm gonna tell every client they gotta work harder in the production / mix?...you crazy? That's a sure way to lose clients in a hurry.
Streaky I don’t see this plugin you’re using in RX 9 standard. What is the name of this RX you’re using? What version too? Let me guess it’s not in standard? 🤬Ty
