    Halloween '24 mixes.

    It's that time of year again, folks! A few members have already shared their spooky halloween specials so why not join in and share yours? I thought I'd post this sticky thread to highlight some of your monster-mixes so feel free to dust the cobwebs off (or leave them there!) and share what...

    How do they get waveforms this BIG without clipping?

    As said the size of the waveform isn't necessarily important but, looking at your two pictures, the main difference is going to be dynamic range. Hard to say but it looks like the loudest peaks in your audio are nowhere near zero so there's probably room to turn the entire thing up a fair bit...

    Eq confused

    I imagine Tascam know what a shelf eq is. Whether they explain it as clearly as us, with pictures, or not is another thing. Good luck.

    Eq confused

    Tascam literature says all the eq options on that unit are shelves.

    Maxman, slow down. Go back to the start and read over the posts. I've described it several times, and posted images showing what I mean.

    Sure. My second picture illustrates that.

    Nothing falls off a cliff, unless you set the gain to negative infinite or as low as it goes. All frequencies above, or below, your chosen frequency are raised, or lowered, by your gain setting. The result is something that resembles a shelf...long, straight, flat. It sounds like you're...

    Eq confused

    The low shelf (low frequency shelf) would be the one of the left. In both my images frequency is indicated, rising, from left to right.

    Eq confused

    The EQs I'm using here don't let me have a low shelf starting at such a high frequency, but what you have programmed in would look similar to this.

    Eq confused

    I don't know that unit so I'm making an educated guess, but those look like controls for two shelves, or a two band shelf. Hi-F would be high shelf frequency - the point above which everything is turned up or down. Hi-G would be high shelf gain - how much it's turned up or down. Lo-F would be...

    Eq confused

    Those are some of the least simple terms I've ever heard. :ROFLMAO: My picture has a high shelf boosting frequencies above X, and a low shelf cutting frequencies below X. That's two of the four possible shelf options. I could have shown a high shelf cutting and a low shelf boosting. High...

    Eq confused

    The attached image shows a shelf used to cut low frequencies, and another shelf used to boost higher frequencies. The gain setting determines the level of the flat part and the Q setting, if you have one, will determine the steepness of the slope. You can effectively use a shelf as a high pass...

    Ram upgrade 32 to 64gb

    +1 to this. If I had a £ for every time people just went off and upgraded their ram regardless here I'd be retired but what DM says is true. If you run a heavy session and your ram doesn't get over 20% (or any % well clear of 100), more ram won't help. It'd be upgrading your 10 litre container...

    Gain staging ok but main bus clipping??

    Hi, It sounds to me like what you're describing is perfectly normal. You can be as careful as you want on a per track basis but the master is the sum of the parts so, eventually, the more tracks you add the closer you're going to get to clipping it. (Assuming some degree of frequency overlap in...

    New Members: Introduce Yourself Here!

    Hi Miguel, Welcome to HR. I love seeing old gear restored and maintained and, ideally, used. Plenty of other people here do too so welcome on in. (y)

    Ram upgrade 32 to 64gb

    With memory and CPU usage you can just open Task Manager and look at the performance tab and know for sure if you'll benefit from an upgrade or not. Fire up the heaviest workflow you've got then watch TaskManager as it's running. If the memory in-use % is well below 100, then you won't benefit...

    Mix This!

    It’s fun to share your mixes and get other members’ feedback, but did you know we have an area for sharing your raw tracks? Why not give it a go and see where someone else takes your project?

    Is Movavi good for beginners in audio and video editing?

    Hi, I'd never heard of Movavi before but it looks like the free version puts watermarks in your exports so, basically, it's not free. I'd recommend looking at Da Vinci Resolve for video. It is free and without watermarks, although there is a paid version with additional features, but the free...

    Nothing

    Yeah, seems most people are just confused now, which is why I suggested more communication in the first reply. Perhaps Odi just intended to share this music for us to listen to without really wanting feedback or discussion. If that's the case I can move them over to the show off forum.
