    Invulnerable High Frequency Noise

    This is not personal and not an insult to this site. You can not arrange pictures around text here, and that was very important for the step by step explanation. I'm on a mac using Safari. When I upload them, they all upload in a single box, and you can't even label them. On top of that, your...

    Invulnerable High Frequency Noise

    I'm a full time sound designer and game audio specialist. I know exactly what your problem is here. I'm attaching a copy with the HF removed. This did a little too much damage to be usable, and once I explain the technique, you'll want to attempt this again using the original unedited file. I...

    Transient Designer ?

    Those are good observations. There's something to be said for the push-pull aspect of some of these units. The SPL TD is good at what its does and in its time it was the best. Technology is leaving this behind though. The SPL is SOOOOOO limited compared to the Waves Smack attack, the Izotope...

    Transient Designer ?

    That level of oversimplification has some pretty obvious faults. A car, an airplane, a bike, and a train all get you from one location to another, but the method by which this is accomplished differs to the point where one can not be interchanged or subsisted for another once you consider...

    Transient Designer ?

    No. They're not doing the same thing anymore than an 1176, an LA2, and a Manley Vari Mu are all 'doing the same thing'. The attack, decay, slew rate, knee, response thresholds, and clip algorithms are drastically different. In a nutshell, the differences are determined by drastic differences in...

    Techniques for getting vocal levels even?

    Yup.

    I think this is the correct sub-forum for a question on mixing "large" songs

    Hi Timbo... Freezing tracks is usually faster than bouncing them Use global busses instead of placing tracks on every single channel. A global bus is a reverb/delay/distortion etc...that is parked on a bus which every track in the session has access to through a send. You should be able to...

    Techniques for getting vocal levels even?

    Yup. Pretty much. The only other one I don't see is side chain ducking. Not side chain compression, not side chain filtering. Volume ducking. Different than automation. It can give the vocal the appearance of being more even than it actually is.

    Layering guitars without horrible phasing

    You're not too far off in your line of thought. I don't know about leaving it to the professionals, because you can certainly achieve a similar result if you have the gear. What you're up against is almost always a problem with the source. It takes a lot of amps and a lot of planning to make...

    Manual De-essing?

    Sure. Good question. Here's my pro opinion (lol) on how this is best done manually. A spectral editor lets you attenuate certain frequency ranges and plosives will almost always occur below 400 hz. The one in this first example lets say that circled region is a plosive from a gush of wind into...

    Transient Designer ?

    Hi mjb. The TD's are insanely powerful tone shaping tools. A common trick is to run them after a compressor to restore lost energy. I use them after reverbs, doublers and other time based effects like lo-fi delays if I want them to stand out a little more. Thats a trick I learned from Warren...

    Quick Reverb/Bus Processing Question

    Gotcha. I understand. Sorry Boulder, I misunderstood his question.. Seems Johnny's questions was if the group bus would receive a signal independently from verb bus if the sends were inserted infront of the group bus. I thought he was asking ~IF~ the verb bus would still process the sources...

    mixing with guitar pedals

    Which console? What did you do about the mismatch in the impedance? Didn't this make quite a bit of noise?

    Quick Reverb/Bus Processing Question

    No!!! Not correct. His reverb return is returning reverb and therefore it is VERY processed. The dry buss is what's not processed. The reverb return is processed. The source tracks are also processed.

    is duplicating a track a good way to make the sound fuller?

    Yes. No. Not when you do it like that.

    No way. Absolutely not. Try it and you'll figure out why.

    Basic Guitar Reverb Techniques

    Doesn't matter. Flip a coin and pick one. Use different reverbs and put them in different places. Add pre delays to the reverb. Modulation on reverb tails. Maybe use transient enhancements on the tails. Or perhaps distort the tails with a lo-fit plugin. You can also gate the tails. There's a...

    Mix guitar on backing track

    Either way works. Doesn't matter. Monitor always.
