*edit: the 1176 hardware is a FET compressor, not a VCA compressor... sorry about that ;)

Love the sound and vibe of this, when is this song coming out? Great mixing as always. My question is would it be wrong to make a slight cut on this vocal in the 2.5k or 3Kish range as well? I'm just so sensitive to that frequency range just want to know your thoughts on this. Can't wait for more vids. Your channel is like a Netflix series for me. I hate having to wait for more vids 😂😂😂

@mediaman2467 Год назад

Great video breakdown. You never disappoint. I value your opinion on which is the best fit for my question. I produce my own music (rap) as well as my wife's (neo-soul). Which program would you suggest for a beginner for mastering their own music? 1. Ozone 10 | 2. SSL Fusion (Using your StudioRacks preset) | 3. Waves (Using your StudioRacks mastering presets) . Thanks!

@SeanDivine Год назад

Thanks! It depends on your workflow / plugin preferences - if you have little to no mastering experience and just want a quick but usable suggestion, Ozone 10. SSL Fusion presets if you want the signature Fusion sound which is very different than Ozone. Mastering Chains SR presets if you want lots of different styles and prefer to be able to tweak / learn some of the processing that's happening behind the scenes :)

You would typically process the adlibs differently (on their own aux). I cover this in the latest tutorial - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OYoPq-0Mps0.html

@SeanDivine Год назад

@JayMadeelrubio Год назад

Sean another question, I was told that you cannot get a great mix that competes with other records out there if you don't use parallel compression. Do you agree or disagree?

@SeanDivine Год назад

No rules in mixing and certainly not always going to achieve a great mix the same way. I do use parallel compression but not in every session - only as necessary :)

@supascottnaford Год назад

@Sean, whatever happened to your old song, ‘it was never meant to be’?

@ZAY________ Год назад

Hey Sean thanks for the idea! Im curious about the order of how you have the chain in the video. Many of the famous Rap vocal hardware chains i've seen in pictures / videos would be a rack case with a - Sony C800-G / U47/87 > Neve / BAE 1073 > CL1B > Apollo x6 - - Now, in your video you have the 1073 going right into the 1176. Was just wanting to ask about that. If I owned a real 1073, I would in fact just go to the CL1B directly right? Or are all those guys sending and returning to the CL1B?

@kingblack6965 7 месяцев назад

1073 to cl1b fuego

@lunted Год назад

hello, really appreciate the content! could you maybe do an equivalent for the uad plugins as well? or is it almost the same

@MisterLongoBR Год назад

I would say it's almost the same. You have access to Neve 1073 and 1176 emulations on UAD Spark or DSP versions if you own an interface they make. The CL1B offered in UAD site is the same as the one this video, as it is provided by Softube for the UAD ecosystem And finally, you could use any De-esser, reverb and limiter solution provided by your DAW or go with the Precision plugins they offer at UAD and EMT or Lexicon reverbs

@MrSkyTown Год назад

Need your input on this, when I mix I have like my ocd like I like to literally match peaks before and after a plugin but I just can’t do that all the time lol it’s ridiculous. I do want to use my ears but sometimes I feel like I need a meter, i understand when gain staging it just needs to be in ball park when I’m comparing a plugin before and after, I just need to just have more confidence and not be obsessed with numbers and matching them

@SeanDivine Год назад

OCD and gain staging don't make for a great mix 😊 ...no but really, meters are useful for certain things but listeners don't care about numbers in your sessions. If it sounds good, it is good.

@MrSkyTown Год назад

@@SeanDivine I definitely want to try to just try to mix and gain stage by ear after I already gain staged on the way in before I start mixing. It’s been a pain doing it my way. I gain staged kicks, bass etc to VU but snares and hi hats i do it to max peak -12 since they are too loud when using VU. I learned a lot I’ve rage years and I just need to not be too caught up with how I adjust make up gain. Thanks for your videos.

@NewcarsTv Год назад

is been a time sean, i hope u are fine?

@edbaut3640 Год назад

Does anybody know a good alternative to cl1b for logic?

@SeanDivine Год назад

The stock Logic compressor (Vintage Opto mode) is capable of similar results.

@victornico Год назад

Do you tend to worry about adjusting the input of plugins like Scheps 73 to a certain amount on the VU meter?

@SeanDivine Год назад

Generally speaking, no. Some of the older analog modelled plugins are more sensitive to gain staging and are designed to process signals optimally at levels like -18. I say use your ears to hear how it’s reacting and if it sounds good, it is good :)

@zian3694 Год назад

What is the actual benefit of adding plugins in studio rack instead of the mixer inserts ?

@IA7Anthony Год назад

The main benefits are 1. Being able to save a template that can work in any daw. 2. Being able to turn any stage into Multi-Band. 3. The Macros can be used to really customize HOW you mix. Although some DAWs already have this feature. I personally used it a bunch when it first came out for the multiband but I've stopped using it as much.

@zian3694 Год назад

@@IA7Anthony any stage into a multiband ?? I mean, can you add any effect plugin and apply this effect onto one specific band ?? Wow

@56844398 Год назад

In my uneducated eyes this StudioRack plugin seems to serve as a canvas for other plugins, similar to an aux. chanel. So I was wondering what exactly is the difference between the two? Why dont you simply make your vocal chain directly in a aux chanel? Thanks!

@SeanDivine Год назад

Parallel splits (no need for seperate FX aux), multiband splits, easy internal sidechaining, macro controls, saving / loading your StudioRack chains in any DAW to name a few :)

@Trackformers Год назад

So.. is it possible to use the StudioRack as a send mid effect chain? 🤔

@SeanDivine Год назад

If I understand your question correctly, you can't send audio OUT of StudioRack mid-chain, only the output. You can use a parallel split / multi-band split IN StudioRack anywhere you want in the chain.

Hey Sean, how many db of compression do you end up doing in total on a rap vocal?

@SeanDivine Год назад

It really depends! Every vocal is a bit different and also depending on if it was tracked already with some compression on the way in.

@WavySteve Год назад

@@SeanDivine Make sense, what would you say is the average though? 3db?

@matr5797 Год назад

@@WavySteve It REALLY depends, wavy. There is literally no "average" answer to your question. The thing is; if the performance and microphone technique is literally PERFECT = no compression should be needed. Now, the level of performance dynamic and mic technique is never really going to be perfect, hence the reason we need to FIX the automatic levels with compression.

@matr5797 Год назад

If the gain reduction you apply fixes your overall automatic level throughout the track, AND you do NOT hear the signal being squashed beyond the wanted sound of your music, THAT'S the proper gain reduction.
