Luca Pretolesi is that one teacher who just keep on teaching us new stuffs and eye opening no matter how many practice and experience we have. Such a great artist/engineer/scientist/teacher/mentor/idol/person. Especially for upcoming EDM producer/engineer, I honestly think he is the one teacher that you will never regret spending your time and/or money for his course/content.

Luca I can’t explain how much I appreciate the advice you put on the internet. What a legend

@GingerDrums 3 года назад

The content is actually much better from the mixcon events this year. It was always a challenge to abstract out the room and audience sound, this is much better from an internet audience perspective. The guest is speaking directly to the internet audience which is multiple times bigger than the live audience. Something to think about!

@boomish69 3 года назад

Some good stuff but video sounds distorted to me..I don't get clipping a convertor either that's just digital clipping.

@SonicScoop 3 года назад

With clipping a converter a lot of the clipping is actually at the analog stage of the converter. And, a lot of great sounding mixes have tracks that sound weird in isolation. It's not about whether they sound great and clean on their own. It's about how they all combine in the final mix. That said, in a demonstration video things could happen here and there where they might not sound exactly like they did in the final mix, such as if Luca is monitoring output of the desk rather than output of the D/A and could be hitting converters even harder at moments than he did in the final mix. Hard to say for sure! Thanks for the feedback in any case.

@Its24KARAT 6 месяцев назад

Any one to help ? When i freeze and flatten my track, do i need to reset the levels to 0 before flattening ? Or i let it be at the rough level it was, and start mixing from there. If someone can explain about the process, finish producing, exporting stems, to mix and then master. Would be great to have some help out here ! Thanks a lot !

@willdobson79 3 года назад

I love the Bettermaker... Tip - If you want to use Bettermaker limiter /clippiter as in this tutorial but don't have the hardware (like me) I recommend mix:analog (mixanalog.com). I use Bettermaker (online) on my mixes then download back into my DAW.

@jordangressman5164 2 года назад

i’m very new to mixing, and i often get stuck when trying to decide whether i run my plugins in serial, or process them in parallel. my immediate thought is always to consider the style and often i try to think more parallel. but even then, since i do it half blindly, i worry i’m being inappropriately heavy handed any advice?

@remikristiansen489 3 года назад

This is so great. Mix tips from Luca is the best. Just one thing, is it my Sennheiser earbuds, or is this video audio distorting??

@SonicScoop 3 года назад

There is definitely intentional distortion and saturation on certain elements that may become more apparent when they are solo'd than when they are played in the full mix. Let us know where you think you hear it and we can double check! But listening to the intro it sounds pretty close to his final version which can be found here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-z-YNhJgnoOc.html There may be some subtle differences going through it all quickly for a demonstration video of course.

@arseniy 3 года назад

I felt the same. Now I am sure the sound is distorted :)

@ilyakarmanov 3 года назад

It's because of Sonarworks on the stereo bus I believe.

@remikristiansen489 3 года назад

Love everything from Luca Pretolesi, but I think this video sounds distorted. Maybe some upload mistake from the video guys??

amazing mix but keep in mind folks having summing boards and using high end converters makes mixing 10X faster plugins sounds better when it hybrid and summing with hardware than fully in the box not saying you cant have records ITB but OTB is always superior

@arseniy 3 года назад

Is it just me or the sound kind clipped or something?

@SonicScoop 3 года назад

There's no clipping here in the final video edit. But is possible that there could have been moments during the demonstration when things were pushed a little extra hard, causing more clipping of converters than intended, or just that some of the solo'd elements have more saturation on them than one might expect. Are there any moments where you particularly notice it?

I would think Sonarworks would be placed on a monitor FX buss so you can only listen to it, but not export through it, even when its working? But I don't use Studio One so no idea if that is the case, but the distortion is audible...and its not the nice kind..

This was by far the worst mixing video I have seen by one of the best in the game. He should have showed how to do things in the box like some of other videos he has been in.

@RaduJon 3 года назад

He applies the same techniques / mind set on the hardware as he does on the software. It’s just a preference thing. Some things are easier to reach to when you have your analog tools at your disposal and within arms reach. Like Luca said, you use two hands instead of one mouse pointer.. your decisions are faster and more organic.. like a DJ that performs his set solely from his laptop versus using his DDJ or CDJ controller. You should try it 😊👍

@Iamfeelzmusic 3 года назад

@@RaduJon You seem like a smart guy but you sound really dumb trying to comment on my comment. I use analog and I am a dj. The view and instruction was terrible to see and understand was my point. I went to college for music and a lot of it was hard to process. It would have been a lot easier if he showed it in the box or the view was better. Again my "opinion' is this was the worst mixing video I have ever seen by one of the best in the game. If you don't like my "opinion" keep that to yourself and move on.
