Got it , it's an amazing feeling to see how unknown people are leaving their kindness in such forums for unknown people.All you generous people on the other side ....Thanks for your help.

So what you are saying is in LPX if we select 'pre fader' , I should lower the output signal of the vst or the input signal of the track by 'VST's main volume knob' to the level where the meter of the selected midi track shows its peak at -18...

Thanks Ashcat_Lt.... It's so kind of you to elaborate on my question , I will read it again a couple of times, just one more question ..... when we use a vst and record something on a midi track..... pre fader .....what should be the input level ideally , is it so that we should take the full...

I have been reading and watching stuff about gain staging have followed someone .....imported every instrument or let's say sounds from vsts at -12 db ( maximum peaking at -12), exported the mix at -6 (max peak at -6db)to -8 db and exported master at -0.1 db .... in the meter.RMS level it now...

Ok even if we forget the tutorial , from vst's in all my tracks I am getting almost -12 db , still in the output track if I keep my fader at 0 my level is at 2 to 3 db that is way past 0db and without putting any plugins anywhere .....now what are the ways to get output under 0 db,should I...

Watched in a tutorial that it would be good if all input levels from vsts on logic software tracks are keep at -12 on the pre fader .....now after doing that when I am trying to start my mix I am realizing I am not able to increase the volume of instruments much with faders (post fader) .... 1)...

Hi , I have seen some tutorials in which they claim that , you should always keep the faders in the mixer at around 0 db and if you have to increase or decrease the volume of a track do it by putting a gain plugin on the track.... is it true that if we drop a fader much below 0 db.....the...

Thank you everyone , that's so kind that you gave so much time .. by secrets I did not really mean one recipe, all I meant was the approach or mindset or workflow that some of you have developed that are may be unusual and definitely lines that I might not be thinking on.... I think trial and...

uff so now people are laughing at me ha ha:) :) ..... the forum says home recording ,we should also talk about what would you do in that situation,even if it is 1 out of those million things that are required for a good mix ....at least I will learn one tip..... as obviously people are not...

a)No ....I am not talking about recording anything live, I just use Vsts ....., and vocal mixing is not a problem , I can make my vocals sound good,I record them in the studio, it's about the arrangement .....after the mix it seems as if I have used muffled sounds when it is not the case I...

1) MUDDY SOUND - I do everything that can be done to broaden the sound , compress, eq , cut lows, dip muddy freq , choose best of sounds while programming , use very little but best plugins , YET when I compare my sound with others, neither it sounds as powerful nor as sharp at mixing stage...

Thanks for you replies how do I know my previous mixes were good ??? it's been almost 8 years of posting those videos or listening to them every time things sound proper and clean ... what was it that I was doing different then ?? I had no knowledge of what to cut what to boost , I had no...

That was informative thank you ....

YEah might be the daw ,as mix proceeds definitely frequencies start fighting with each other but what do you think maintains what I am describing as quality of a sound till the end..what methods you use to maintain 1)distinctness of sounds 2)body and power of individual sounds

for last 8 years I have been composing , arranging programming and mixing ,when I was mixing on Nuendo I had some great mixes, then I switched to Logic pro x , PROBLEM : I eq I compress, I select the best quality sounds in the business..... yet when I listen to my mixes now it seems as if...
