🎚️ Tune your vocals right

If you have multiple vocal tracks and you want to apply autotune, make sure you put the plugin on every track rather than on a bus

It will work wrong on multiple sources at once.

⚙️ SSL X-DynEQ

Nah this is wild now…

• Piano Roll View
• 24 band dynamic EQ
• Per Band dynamic sidechaining

And more.

Who do you consider your fan?

F*ck how it sounds.

Tell me how it feels.

🎚️ How to increase DAW performance?

I’m sure you are aware of the things like buffer and all of the settings in your particular DAW that help the performance.

But one thing is not really obvious.

Due to how DAWs interact with CPU, you always have only one core that processes

I don’t understand the point of EQs costing $200-$300 emulating some hardware and not emulating harmonics

Makes no sense to me.

That moment when you don't want to work is the only moment when you can change your life.

You are not ANY better when you do something if you want to do it. Catch yourself not wanting to do sh*t and remember that IT IS THE TIME TO GROW.

🏆🏆🏆

You put so much effort into your music. And I'm here to make YOUR songs to sound like they deserve.

W for my artists.

🎚️ Markers are important for me

Always create markers when mixing a song. Not only it helps to navigate a session, it helps me to easily create automations for different parts of the song.

I always see the timeline, and I can easily create automations for anything.

What was your best music related investment?

🎚️ Restore clipped vocals

Sometimes artist sends clipped vocals (or even an instrument) that clearly shouldn't clip, and he doesn't have possibility to re-record and provide clean material

You don't have a choice but try your best working with what you have.

In this case,

When you scroll Youtube and see another 'learn how to mix vocals professionally in 5 minutes'

You can not neglect the human factor when organizing your workflow. You are not the robot.

Try to optimize every process as much as possible. Template, shortcuts, your setup, your environment. Nothing should feel hard and tedious.

It directly affects the final result.

🎚️ Add excitement to vocals in the hook

You can try automating the high frequency shelf with analog modeled EQ, slightly increasing the high end only during the hook

Giving some extra excitement and movement to your song.

🎚️ Auto release in compressors

Auto release allows the device to automatically adjust the release time based on the characteristics of the input signal.

This can be useful in dynamically changing audio material, as it allows the compressor to adapt its release time to better

I genuinely believe that short form videos is the best way to promote music for free right now.

Do you agree?

⚙️ Slate Infinity Bass

It almost feels like a cheat code when mixing bass or kick with it. I get deep, rich and punchy low end within minutes.

Together with UAD Oxide Tape, and some dope compressor (for example my favorite Neve 33609), the low end is supreme.

It doesn't matter if you bought or demoed the plugin.

First thing you should do is open the manual.
Seriously. It's free knowledge about your tools.

Knowing them very well is essential.
Nathaniel W.

Don't be like that😅
