In this video we look at how to do parallel compression and processing in Ableton Live 11. Parallel compression is a mixing technique to add depth and thickness to tracks like drums, bass and vocals. You can apply this technique, using sends and returns, to other DAWs e.g. Logic X, FL studio, Pro Tools.

Wow, the s/c on the Parallel Comp return is absolutely amazing! Never though to do that before and it works superbly to push he parallel without creating more peak signal. Thank you for this gem 🔷 Just discovered your channel and really enjoying the way you explain things.

@noahvandenabeele 3 месяца назад

The technique with the effect rack is much more powerful because if you're doing volume automation in your track the amount of dry and compressed signal will stay the same. With the sends the compressor on the return track will be triggered differently depending of the amount of volume sent to the compressor, if you're doing volume automation.

@georgepoindexter7416 2 года назад

Compression to me is the mysterious magic in sound distribution, because you can make sounds that are loud and you cannot or barely hear a person trying to converse with you while you are Jamming Outputs, but once you ( COMPRESS PROPERLY ) you can talk enjoying the conversation and enjoy the music at the same time!!!! A sure test for right DJ-ing!!

@nuvisionprinting 2 года назад

Another awesome video Becky! Even though I use a different DAW, this is so clearly explained that it is to take to another platform! A skill few have!

@BeckySaifMusic 2 года назад

So great to hear this. Glad you can apply the skills to your DAW of choice. btw Ableton has a 90 day trial....... ;-)

Absolutely right!! A skill only a few have. Hec, I’m still learning myself after many years. I mentioned to Becky, that it’s my favorite thing to adjust. This is a true test to what a person knows!!

@@georgepoindexter7416 definately, for me a true test is being able explain something in such a way that anyone can learn it. It also shows how well you understand what you are explaining.

Hi! Great video! I have a question... what do you mean by the transients of the dry signal? at the beginning of the video

@cassandramary Год назад

Hey! Great Video! just had 1 question that i've had some trouble understanding, since the dry/wet knob is on the comp, is there a diff between using that to blend as opposed to using parallel comp through Sends? or is this more of a workflow preference? Thank youuu!

@user-ub2jp7tg6k Год назад

Is it better to put parallel compression on vocals before or after EQ, Reverb and Delays ? Thank you.

@vitallink4830 4 месяца назад

is there a way to p comp a drum bus? ie say I make a drum bus send/return, can I then send the drum bus send/return to another send/return which I could then use as a p comp?

@rac06oon 2 года назад

Hello Becky!!!...a big question, if we gonna export the individual stems of our project say for example to send it at recording studio for vocals...those parallel processed signals especially on the example with the return channels do they going be printed on the drums group?or we have to treat them like a room mic in a live instruments recording(in this situation we have one channel from the room mic/overheads). sorry for my bad english i hope you understand what I ask.

@BeckySaifMusic 2 года назад

Hey great question and happy to answer. When you export your track a dialog box appears. In this box you have 'Rendering Options'. The first in the list is 'Include Return and Master Effects'. When you export 'All Individual Tracks' it will export the stems with the return and master effects included. Disable this option if you would like to export them without the return channels included.

@rac06oon 2 года назад

@@BeckySaifMusic appreciate the response!okk so when the returns and master included in stems we will have finally i.e one track from drum parallel and one from the master printed alongside with the stem of the main tracks kick snare bass etc so the engineer will have to keep the stems of every single stem plus the one from returns and master. am I right?

It would be nice if I could write you a long note to get ur socks all twisted together then freshly ironed, so when you put them on they feel like little bundles of cuddles when u move, making life difficult like putting cereal in after milk so the flour blows away with a parakeet singing a nice song about dinosaurs coming to life
