Guys, you and your videos are excellent as always! Thanks!

@fpcelizabeth Год назад

Thank you for this! We need more information about what appropriate levels should be for audio.

@SeanCaldwellvo 4 года назад

Excellent info! If you're using the L2 somewhere in the signal chain and there is a significant component of voice (speaking, preaching, etc.) I'd suggest people disengage the ARC (auto release). I find that it introduces too much distortion with many voices if you have some gain reduction going on. Try the release around 100ms.

I miss my friend Andrew so much. He was an amazing guy and the best live sound guy I've ever known.

@@rollomaughfling380 I don't get why this video is so long... They can't just say what the title is, explain it quickly. Show examples. And shows how to mix it better?

100% agree on the extra metering. I do the same with my home setup. I look-at and compare about 3 main output levels on my gear before I'm consistent to continue mixing. My limited experience in live-broadcast sound had a lot of trial-by-fire moments that necessitated more monitoring between multiple systems. Safer to maintain and much-faster to troubleshoot the what and where when things get crazy. Found my way here on that 2020 Grammy Flash Sale for the L2. Cheers y'all!

You gotta love dynamic eqs with the threshold set to 0dBFS. Is sounds sooo “eq”instead of a “dynamic eq”

@Trinitysoundcompany 4 года назад

not one mention about broadcast level standards or RMS. How does one build up RMS levels in a mix? While peak values matter a lot, most churches are struggling with too loud and too quiet. Content is great, but some big gaps missing. Waves has the tools to fill those gap!

Not that it has anything to do with what was actually said and I like Waves and all but why do so many of these videos have intros that are so loud and then instantly have people talking in inside voices

Hi Waves, I love the sale you have going on now. Can you please add DeBreath to the $29.99 sale?

@soundallowed 4 месяца назад

Those limiters aren't true peak so things can sneak through them.

@kitmateyawa7829 4 года назад

I don't see the point in using the live mix for your live broadcast as well since the live mix is tuned to the room ... unless you had that perfect room.

@soulsweet17 3 года назад

That’s true most places have a split and keep their live mix independent from their broadcast mix

@johnhricko8212 3 года назад

we need a "podcasting standard" that insists the first 10 seconds of the video will GRADUALLY increase the volume ! ! ! REALLY !!! ... a segment on COMPRESSION?.... (...and when NOT to overcompress!!!)
