#WAVEBURNER PUT MORE VOLUME FULL#
Sometimes, when things sound really great and big and full when soloed, all that hugeness adds up to cause muddiness in the mix. How about instead of boosting a bunch of stuff, cutting frequencies in the problematic areas? I find my self doing WAY more of this than boosting. ranges around 4k or 6.5k a heck of a lot. Then strap on the wrote:So you wouldn't get in and do anything real serious with EQ? Sometimes I'd get frustrated from muddying up the mix and boost certain freq. Use one or 2 compressors doing 1 or 2 db of gain reduction. In general, I've noticed that at alot of the mastering sessions i've gone to, the mastering engineer will use small amounts of compression at several different points in the signal chain. At this point, you should be hearing a very full mix, where most of the peak information is still intact. Adjust the Out Ceiling slider to a ceiling of -0.1 dB to extra-guard overshoots (there are still playback systems around that display signal clipping when the signal is at 0.0dB). Grab the left Threshold slider, and drag it downward until you begin to see very slight activity on the ATTEN (attenuation) meter. Either of these conditions may be normal, or they might suggest the mix balance could use some additional work.Īssuming all looks and sounds well, you can proceed to the L2. Also notice if the lowest frequencies are very active. This indicates a lot of activity in the band, something which may be normal for the mix or which could indicate a frequency balance problem. Make note of any frequency bands that are really showing a lot of action. Stop when the DynamicLine is moving through about half of the total Range represented by the blue rectangle.
When the animated DynamicLine begins to dance like a snake, you are beginning to apply compression. This lowers the thresholds across all frequency bands. Grab the THRSH (Threshold) control and drag downwards. These controls globally affect all of the frequency bands. Under the "Master" heading, you'll see control boxes with arrows. Load the "Adaptive Multi Electro Mastering" preset. Place LinMB and L2 in the master chain - LinMB first, followed by L2.
Here we'll use Linear Multiband and L2 to create a radio-friendly mix that doesn't look like a close-cropped, GI-style wave shape. Mastering loud mixes without the squashed flat tops - Linear Phase Multiband and L2
