Thanks for sharing your way of doing this (y). So you don't use any special metering to set that gain level in logic ? And yes I can imagine that the compressors in logic also provide some coloring. I actually use my (hardware) bus compressor for the same reason.

I keep discovering things in Cubase as well despite being a long time user. You can also show the gain control in the mixer by the way, by enabling 'Pre(Filters/Gain/Phase)' in the Rack filter top right.

Yes I've been hearing some good things about the Slate console emulation, so may have to give that a try. Thanks for the tip (y).

Yes I can understand your point very well. For me the difference is very subtle and in the video probably even less noticable than in the files that can be downloaded. Due to the audio compression of YouTube. In general I feel all these small differences do add up if you have many, but I can...

Thanks for your reply. I find that if I just go by not clipping everything gets too loud ?.

I just posted a video on my YouTube channel about using a plug-in (Britson) for gain staging and console emulation on every channel. What are the experiences in this group ? Do you use anything for gain staging and coloring ?

I recently did a video on mixing the guitars for a new song on my YouTube channel. I know how you mix guitars is obviously dependant on the recordings, the song, the style, etc.... but do you guys have any go to techniques that have often worked for you ?

Nice! Yes I understood that the full version can separate more than just unmixing the vocals and it has many more editing tools too. I must say with older mixes, even if I still have the cubase project, it rarely works perfectly anymore due to switching plugins and HW setup over the years. So I...

I just made a video on my YouTube channel about the new SpectraLayers One in Cubase 11, and how I've found some uses for it. I wonder if any of you guys are using it and what for ? Maybe I can learn something new :). Regards, Maarten

Hi all, My name is Maarten and I'm a guitar player from the Netherlands. I also have a home studio that I use mostly to record and mix my own band Awash, and I make YouTube videos about that on a channel called 'Lanewood Studios'. I also have a tour of my home studio on that channel if you want...

Great, very useful to see an example of how much you do during tracking.

I find it hard to record exactly the sound that is required in the mix, and see lots of engineers that have 'go to' techniques for dealing with snare drums in the mix. Many 'famous' producers and mixers even have their signature sound and you can hear it on multiple records of totally different...

That's quite minimal indeed ....:thumbs up:

Yes I do that all the time too. Using Trigger 2 to add a sample to the actual snare or kick drum or Toms. I usually do that as enhancement though, without completely replacing the original drum or its character.

Ha ha .... no problem! I hope you find some good use for it. There’s lots s of videos around with people using it in all kinds of situations. I my last mix I used it on snare, vocals and a guitar part.

Yes Soothe 2 has really found it's way into the industry in a big way. It can be used for a lot of applications on many sources. I'm sure you can do most of these things with your usual plugins as well, probably more accurately and exactly the way you want it. But it just takes a bit longer. I...

Ah yes, I use Soothe 2 for that nowadays. Lazy me .... ;).

Hi, I just posted a video on my YouTube channel about snare mixing techniques. What are some of your favorite snare mixing techniques that I could benefit from ? Regards, Maarten
