I misspoke in the video and wanted to clarify some things. A limiter is a very fast compressor in essence. It does its best to quickly turn down any peaks with its quick attack. This can be transparent to an extent, but when you push a limiter too hard it will result in a rough sounding distortion and artifacts. A clipper will actually chop off the peaks rather than turn them down like a limiter. This can be done lightly for a more transparent effect or aggressively for that clipping sound. Either way you will be feeding your limiter with less peaks so it can react to the audio more smoothly. Hope this helps.
Found this channel yesterday and learned a few gem already when I thought I knew it all after 10 years at this on the production side. Keep killing it Jerry!
What i really like about your videos ist the fact that you actually provide usefull tips in the right context. There are so many channels and some provide good knowledge too, but more often than not the information ist not connected to a real world szenario or a concrete situation. The best example for a really helpfull, easy to understand video ist your clip about how to gainstage. That alone was super helpfull for me and is something i incorparated in my production process like i have always know it. Keep up the good work !
Right it sooooooo true man I don't know why I watch big TH-cam channel and I don't connect like the way I do with your channel it like I understand everything you saying so quickly thanks man
Exactly. Try to get the kick or snare (whatever you’re clipping) to sound the way you want as far as volume, EQ, and compression goes and then clip it for headroom.

This video and your other are just on point! Love it
God bless you! Amazing tutorial, straight to the point, and addressed the confusion I had about soft clipping. Thank you.
you would put this last in your signal chain on something like a kick or drum bus right? Last meaning before any time effects
Exactly. Try to get the kick or snare (whatever you’re clipping) to sound the way you want as far as volume, EQ, and compression goes and then clip it for headroom.
@@mixwithjerry bet appreciate it
@2:11 am I crazy or did hihats reappear when the clipper is turned off? Is it cutting the higher end?
best videos Bro..could you review plugin alliance.......?
But how will the punch be maintained
Very good tutoriel. What is the same of the song please use at 2:16 ?
It’s one of my songs.. it’s called “Find Myself” - Jerry Gleam
Ive seen you dont have email address or direct contact... Any way to contact you for any advise or suggestion on mixing?
Hi man, i have a little question
Do you personally use drum bus like only kick+snare or you also route hi-hat and perc mixertracks to the same bus?
I route kick, snare, hi-hat, open hat, claps, snaps, and crash. I also route my 808s there too but a lot of people have their own 808 bus
U can make ur master loud when make ur mix loud
correct, but you have to save yourself headroom when mixing also.
