As someone who is just tumbling head first into Brauerizing my mix template, this channel is a god send. I am currently following along on his Puremix video's while using your explanations as reference. Heads up, in Delay 3 there is a discrepancy between your Motion "Slap Delay Mover" preset and his. Brauer engages Panner 2 and from what I can hear, these are the additional parameters: Sync Path Type: Classic Modulator: Saw Tooth Trigger: Off
To brauerize your mix in the box, you should change the 'stereo output' of your track to 'no output'; open two send busses (in Logic) and you put a different sounding compressor with the same settings in each bus. You've just split the dry sound = brauerized. You can also brauerize the wet sound: add all your plugins in different send busses (= parallel), and put the stereo output of all those buses to for example bus 20; change the 'stereo output' of bus 20 to 'no output', open two busses and add a different sounding compressor with the same settings to each bus; your wet sound has been split = brauerized. Next step: change the 'stereo output' of the dry compressors to, for example, 'bus 30', and change the 'stereo output' of the wet compressors to, for example, 'bus 40'. Bus 30 = volume of dry compressed sound; bus 40 = volume wet compressed sound. Change the 'stereo output' of bus 30 and bus 40 to, for example, 'bus 50'. Add a multipressor with light settings, only taming peaks, to bus 50. Bus 50 is now your premaster for this specific instrument, containing a mix of the compressed dry and wet sound. (Brauerizing means enriching the sound by splitting it up, and it means controlling the dynamics of each instrument, or instrument group, before it reaches the stereo output.)
Thanks Joe! Do you compress any of these with the BX SSL 9000 J? I noticed the compression kicks in sometimes, especially on the Ampex. Would be interesting to see the full template you're using these days if willing to share. Thanks for your helpful videos!
These end up feeding into his multi-buss compression setup, which I'll go over in another video. As far as I know they don't get compression from the SSL, other than what is applied to the source signal on the channels feeding the delays.
@@GreenLightSound Thank you for the reply :) Did you also check out the Brauer Vocal parallel compression? Been getting into it over the last few weeks. It sounds really great, especially sending to reverbs before compression :)
