- In this episode the guys discuss a heavily debated topic in audio. Should you eq before you compress or compress before you eq? Are you changing the nuance you would get from compression? Are you now only boosting the good? Lets find out.

I NEED HELP WITH THE ROSETTA EQ ITS NOT SHOWING UP IN MY DAW AND IVE DONE EVERYTHING....HELP!!!
If this pod did 4 hour episodes, I’d still rewatch every single one as I do now. Thank you guys for making these. ❤️🔥
We got more coming we gotcha!
Yup I watch and rewatch every episode 2-3 times and take notes in my phone.
OD
Y’all make me feel sane. I don’t know any other engineers or real producers IRL
From what I’ve seen of professional recording engineers they’re compressing the vocal through hardware as it goes into the box and then applying EQ and then compression down the chain. So from what I’ve seen they’re compressing the vocal first, lightly to control those peaks and it’s usually a transparent compressor, then EQ and then tonal compression
This is been my new favorite podcast. I listen to every episode and always wish they were longer. Looking forward to seeing y’all really take off. The right guests could take this to the next level.
U r absolutely right we really want timbaland bad cause we ll ask the questions u kno we all want to know
Don't make longer episodes. Short and sweet will push yall further in a shorter period of time. This shit is perfect to me.
As rule of thumb I'd say: Substractiv EQing mostly before Compression and Additive EQing mostly after Compression. Except of when you actually wan't certain Frequencies to trigger the Comp earlier. Then you might actually wan't to raise these Frequencies before the Compression for a good Reason. But it also depends on the Type of Compression you wan't to achive (Upward/Downward Compression)
THESE ARE NOT LONG ENOUGH AT ALL.. AT LEAST AN HOUR WOULD SUFFICE
found your podcast this weekend and i’m digging every episode i’m seeing. y’all got some hot takes on some things where you admit you don’t know much, and it’s nice to see humility amongst fellow audio nerds.
on this topic, it’s simple. ask yourself what you want to highlight-both methods compliment each other so much that the question just cancels itself out.
I personally use corrective EQ 1st
Then compress
Then add EQ for color.
My personal preference.
Sooo... basically, you EQ (get the sound basically correct and pull out the frequencies that'll hurt when too loud), then compress to saturate and then go back to your EQ to finetune it?
God, you guys are all over the place in your podcasts, i generally really dislike (chaotic) podcasts like these, but you guys somehow make it work for me and keep me listening right up to the end xD
let the song tell you what to do, but personally I deductive EQ first before I compress. That way I get rid of harsh sounds first and the signal going into the compressor is clearer and cleaner.
yall should do a topic about marketing your music for people that have trouble with getting their music to new listeners
Yooo Sage Audio is so underrated, super happy they got mentioned
Sage audio is goateddddd
Sage Audio is amazing! I discovered Futuristic from their audio examples which is dope!
i'm glad we giving virtual dj some respect!!
I definitely EQ first so I can get rid of it all those problems and I actually learned that from dervon, and it just makes sense
Serato’s on point with key and BPM. Like 99% of the time it’s got it. Serato Sample is a great plugin.
You guys gonna get me so fired. I’m hooked!!!
You work outta protools bro😂 💀
He Smoked Me !!
1 of yall need to try akai mpc studio 2
I REALLY wanna hear your opinions on it I highkey love it
I get so many gems from yall
We need a proper Logic representative on here!
Lmaoooo we give y’all so much flowers tho 😭
@@HelpMeDevvon That’s a fact! I just would love to see the dynamic of throwing someone new in the convo from a different DAW and seeing the debates that would come from it 😂
The eq before compressor is so the compressor will press that frequently more than others
Hilarious watching this Episode with my Novation LaunchKey49 sitting in front of me!!!
MP3 is Arizona!! WAV is minute maid, FLAC is tropicana apple, OGG is Chubby!! AAC is Simply orange!
If it's Wednesday you know it's #MyAudionerds day.. Always looking forward for your episodes from Kenya.
YOU KNOW IT!!!!
I EQ before I compress because the compressor doesn’t have to work as hard changes the whole feel of the voice🔥✊🏾
Use Logic Pro X BPM counter with Nectar 2 pitch correct “key finder” is the A1 find for setup
Native instruments has the best controller/software package imo
"I had a friend of mine who was an edm DJ , imember..." 😹My man Devvon speaking a language of the Gods
I do subtractive eq first before I compress
Devvon look like Cuba Gooding JR😂
CAP!!! LMAO
@@HelpMeDevvon show me the money!!!
Another great one from the guys I love this channel
EQ matters more on the way in to your Daw then it does in your Daw. That’s what people forget we EQd on the way in.
YOOO VirtualDJ lives on my computer just for the BPM finder too 😂
FL ❤
This is easily becoming my favorite pod!
Keep it up bro love the diversity
Analog will always be at the front end of recordings. A 1073 plug-in doesn’t even sound remotely close to hardware yet..
Music recorded with analog moves me every time I hear it. Digital recordings move me for a couple days..it’s a feeling. I use both because of convience and price.
FL TO THE World
Im a UAD plugin user and I must say, they plugins are priced high, but on the other hand. They make up for it because they plug-ins are almost spot on with the sound of the hardware it recreates.
Hey im thinking about buying UAD stuff, but im usualy using waves plugins. Main reason is for my vocal chain but im not sure yet i heard that UAD because their preamp 1073 is so good. Is it worth it?
So true! I also got vdj just to check tempo and key..😂😂😅..now i use serato sample.
I MBC, then use Manny Triple D, then compress/eq or eq/compress depending on the beat or end result i want
On my moma VDJ been holding it down!!
Roll off/cut lows before compression, any other EQ after.
Mannnn!!!! I Love this podcast as a fellow nerd Thank you for guys!!!
Tunebat is my go to till this day. I use it to find the key of the song. I’m surprised it’s not underground as I thought it was 😭
I still use tunebat as well haha simple and quick, bpm is occaaasionaly wrong, but key is always on point, and if your DAW has 'tap to tempo' function you're set
@@Tai-Dyeyo I have a question about tunebat if you don’t mind?
23:42 “Have you ever touched a neve 1073 by any chance? The FAMOUS pre-amp!” He said “I prolly like dragged my hand over it.”💀
Give him a pass lol I think he’s just a music producer and he’s young
Bro I would love to be on this show, I have a podcast myself and I would love to collaborate with you guys! Much respect ✊🏾
Hey I rent to Devvon Don't trip I got your back!!! LMAO
Can ya do a episode talking about the state of underground producers/engineers
Sure we can!!
The juice comparison part got me weakkkkkkkkkkkk
Ljean threw Courtney the mean alley oop lmfao
@1:18 FLzeimer - incredible
"VirtualDJ is something you can try very easily.
But if you play in club, its also amazing...
I was super impressed, its very cool"
David Guetta
Multi-platinum DJ & Producer
That virtual dj convo was so important and triggering 🤣🤣
Buddy was checkin his armpits at 20:08? 😂
serato's grid is no joke lol, I didn't know how it actually works for the longest time. We can add up to 99 grid markers per song. and its smart too. It just takes a few tries to get how it works
hey man i really like your podcast keep doing the good work!
Highly enjoyed this. Funny and educational
But on the real “MixedInKey” is the A1 move now
Hot take . Started out using Virtual DJ, switched to Serato and used it for two years, an then switched back to Virtual DJ. Sure, Serato Stems is cool but VDJ's UI is better . Oh and btw... #ProToolsGang
Straight out of Trinidad 🇹🇹
PRO TOOLS PROPHET
I’ve never heard you guys mention any antelope audio 🤔 they’re pretty good
Back in school, somehow I was taught to compress before EQing because "the compressor can change the tonality of your audio due to saturation and stuff". But I've been EQing before applying compression post school days so....I guess it really doesn't matter lol. Yoooo, one topic you guys should talk about that's been grindin my gears is the concept of pre fader metering and post fader metering. It's been said that pre fader metering is for recording to check the gain stage of all inputs and post fader metering is for mixing. Personally, I don't see the purpose of post fader metering at all-like, why would I want my meters to follow my fader? But idk lol
Right I was taught that too!!! But I’ve changed my ways and I just use my ears
i use traktor to find key and bpm
Subtractive eq > Compression > additive eq
courtney back let’s goo!
I can’t lie I EQ first on individual channels but on my master I’m compressing first 🤷🏾♂️
“he’s rich”
“no i said it was too high of a price”
“oh I’m sorry, you’re a broke boy” 😂😂
Episode of Dolby Atmos in Logic with Apple rendering. ☘Thanks.
UAD is great
Akai DAW is awesome, as long as you send it Pro Tools later on 😎
MOTU is the goat #ijs they gave you us the first midi 8x8 interface
I dunno where he heard Canadians dont like Minute Maid. Dont lie on us 😂😂
He lied to us lmaooo
Chris Rock you mean Chris Tucker Cuh!

You EQ First
Compression is for final Dynamic Control
LJ really not an engineer 😂 we still love you tho brobro

I need to join the podcast team I'm a studio one master
Chris Tucker you said Chris Rock it was Tucker brudda

Eqing First then Compression
Also sounds more music
The track attenuates better
More Musical
Devvon U Said U Would Never Get Rid of the CLA 76
have u Tried the AVID ( PRO-COMP) ???
Nooo 😮
We need a guest host that is a logic user 😂
bro i’m downnnn wtw 😭😭😭 ik a fair amt about engineering and im lowkey nasty w logic
@@tjgeorges6331 Hey I don’t own the podcast but lowkey would be dope to have that logic representation one way or the other 😂
if you print your compressor then you are compressing first
Your trying to play a mind game with me n I don’t like it💪🏽🤣
Don't you dare touch Stevie bro😂
Lmao
😂😂😂
13:40
Camera Quality Dropped, ya'll good?

THIS IS WEIRD cause i Mainly Compress before i EQ in the (DAW) Then Again I EQ Before I Compress In The Avalon 737 Sp
Cause I Eq The 10K Freq @ Around
-2 DB cause i hate that freq coming off of the WA 8000 And
The Sony C800 that Crispiness Bothers me to the core ( Eventually i put it back when i Air the Vox Back up 🤷♂️)
