In this video, I share a few ways to use Mid-Side EQ to improve your production and mixing. It is important to have a good understanding of Stereo EQ to get the most out of Mid-Side EQ but it can be used by anyone of any ability.
I find that it is a good tool to help me do less damage and be more precise when mixing but it is certainly not essential in most situations. It can be used to create width, depth and space in a mix. Many mixers use this to create a 3D, spatial sound stage.

@brentanthony6038 2 года назад

You bring an ease and accessibility to your topics which give me some confidence to give them a go. I had to nod my head when you were talking about removing or adding this through L/R eq would remove too much, or not enough. I've been there. The focusing of the bass, also, really helpful. Thank you.

I loved this video! You just honed in on demystifying the whole Mid/Side thing and although I recently figured all this out, SEEING it being used by you, gave me a confirmation that I was doing it the right way and now I can release any doubts I had. Verification of a technique brings great clarity. Bless Sings. 🙏🤗

Probably the most helpful tool in my arsenal. So many things I work with sound great in stereo, but basically cancels itself out in mono. And sometimes, just one side has weird harsh resonance that I need to dampen without making the whole track sound lofi lol

As always amazing work , please keep making the videos for some mixing process tiny problem which a beginner/intermediate level producer won't know like resonance removal,mid-side EQ , stereo enhancement and many things which an audio engineer / mixing engineer hear and fix ...cause the mixing is 80-90% work while mastering at last enhances those issues which end up sounding bad so please sir I request you to make videos on such topics !!!

I think this is the best tip to get kicks and bass to the front. Before I used M/S eq, my kicks and basses would always be washed out and never cut through. Now it's just hilariously easy to get them in the font and you don't need to do anything else.
