Everytime I see your videos I cannot wait to turn on cubase and try out things😅 you have a great way to wake up my creativity. Thanks a lot for that!
Same here 😂
Would appreciate a video on limiters as well ( brickwall / maximizer ), and maybe even comparing them to some of the compressors.
second that
Can you do a video on how to roughly master using the channel strip and super vision? How to set the limiter and what lufs setting to use etc?
Glad that ure still with us) Havent seen your videos for a pretty long time! Thank u Dom!
I'm not sure if you only see him here on the Cubase TH-cam channel. But he has his own channel a well. Just his name. DomSigalas. And he has uploaded at least 4 or 5 videos in the last month. And they are usually about Cubase.
Black Valve is FIRE! 🔥🔥🔥
Love the standard compressor, it has been my go-too for drums for while now.
The Black Valve is fantastic on Bass guitar , add lots of drive drive and it cuts thru the mix . Cubase are knocking it out of the park
It has some noise without even using it. I have no idea why.
Thanks Dom, compressors finally explained well.
Thanks a lot Dom very useful
Thank you, Dom!!
Dom, the Cubase guru's , a great artist & technician, thanks a lot for your work .
VoxComp sounds useful. I'll have to try that, instead of playing around with EQ to get vocals to stand out.
Gracias!!! Great video!!
would like to have the new C13 "VoxComp" and the "Black Valve Comp" (and "Raiser" maximizer) in Channel Strip modules too! (please @steinberg!!!)
was just about to ask that :-)
+1
ThanK you Dom verynice.
Always amazing tips Dom Thank you
Great video as usual! love the song too
Thanks Dom love the 80s track!
I like how the Black Valve adds a little something even with no compression. It gets a fair bit of use in my mixes.
I ALWAYS use the Compressor for sidechain because of the brilliant "hold" function. Gives me total control of the pump 💪
Thanks Dom, like always.
Standard are like a VCA Compressor right? The new Vox Compressor are a rip off the Waves Renaissance Vox. I use the Renaissance Vox on every mix. Sounds amazing what it do. Great that Steinberg has add that to their compression suite.
Thanks for a nice video
awesome!!!
Definitely would like more on stock plugins because I'm too poor to invest in top-range kit 😢.
Thanks Dom. Cubase has some amazing stock plugins.
Thank's Master...we are here wherever you are and we are waiting for every word in every video because this is how our musical dream works...!!!!!!
I just love that we have all these choices, and they are all included in the DAW and 3 of those are available right in the channel strip. I almost never use a 3rd party dynamics processor plug ins except for more special effects or the final mastering dynamics processor.
Cubase compressors dont have internal filters, channel linking and knee settings. For me, those things are absolutely necessary
@@voinrima I get it. Some of them do have filters and variable knee settings, however. Just not all of them. I think most of them have side chain input sources though.
thank you su much
I use the multiband comp and transient almost all the time
Hey Dom! Nice work, as always!! I was waiting on this video updating on the old one u made a few years back :).
I'm a bit confused about what is going on under the hood of the voxcomp, can you tell me if it is by chance the classic combination of a 1167 style and a LA2A style? Or should I add the vintage/tube/valve compressor before or after it?
I normally use Vintage on everything, but I can hear the advantages of the others for certain elements, so I'll need to start doing that.
yes. Cubase has so great fx and pro compressors, no need for thirdparty. Great times!
The only pro compressors are Pro-C2, ReaComp and smart:comp 2. Everything else is just kinda cool, not pro.
@@voinrima nope. In a full song arrangement with multiple tracks you can't heare these tiny nuances.
# Don't mix in solo mode ^^
@@voinrima I've compared my Waves 1176+LA2A vocal chain with Cubase Tube Vintage comps etc. With a little tweaking you can achieve exactly the same result !! ...overtones and attack behavior included. (Measurement/Analyzer/HP+ears: double signal left (Waves) and right (Cubase comps) hard panned - same sound, same levels, same modulation. It works great.
That says it all.
My favorit compressor is the mk3 Vintage.
Спасибо бро
Nice video DOM. Was that Maniac from Flashdance drum beat on the first compressor review?
Vox compressor is awesome
Voxcomp is great for getting your vocals sit in the mix and to bring it forward. I find it to be somewhat harsh in the upper mid when compared to other 3 party plugins (mostly using UAD, distressor etc.) Is this something you´ve noticed as well?
Hi Dom, please I need your help on this. When i press control+S to save, it takes up to 1min before it’s done saving. How do i fix that??
Your videos are always very interesting, however... I would like to be a fly wandering around your studio while you produce your songs and see the plugins your really use ... :D
I like simple Compressor, on drums, on mix busses, side-chain, or when I need just plain simple compression
Vox comp is great for Vocals obviously,
Black valve - on synths, brasses, etc.
Vintage compressor - on parallel compression, sometimes on vocals, guitars
as for Tube Comp - I tried it several times for different scenarious, but it didn't work for me, so not using it
is there any video on freaquency masking in cubase pro ?
Voxcomp is a life saver
The vox comp is great for impatient not very skilled people like me
❤
The only thing that separates Pro-C2 from being an absolute allround beast is the distortion comression. Other clean compressors are useless, for example there is no wide knee settings or a graph screen. The Knee is maybe the most important thing in the whole compression.
Is wavelab pro needed along with cubase? Thanks
No wavelab is mainly for mastering (or podcasts i believe). It's a completly different programm.
✌🏾
I wish the regular compressor had a sidechain filter. Kind of odd that it doesn't
soooo...vox comp ist like Waves RVox? haha
50/50 Dry/Wet is a strong volume jump.
Steinberg needs to fix this.
You need to change the dry/wet ratio.
Squasher doesn't have this problem.
Hello, I bought cubase 13 pro yesterday. But tell me there is a problem. I cannot access my audio files from the section on the right. The audio files of the cubase program appear, but mine do not. Could you help? I am using windows 11
Did you install the Files in the Download Assistent and activate them in the Steinberg Activation Manager?
@@littlewestghost7434 Yes, I downloaded all cubase files and activated them. but the problem persists
@@littlewestghost7434 I found the cause of the problem and solved it. thank you for your comment
@Would you mind posting what was wrong and what you did?
@@AcousticBruce There is a line in the lower right section where we need to see the audio files. I tried to move that line up and it worked.
Test the "black" for aliasing and then come back to me - it's terrible - no excuse Steinberg it's 2024.
It could be that this exists technically, however I've used it on vocals and absolutely love what it does, to each their own 🤷♂️
If you had no measuring tools would you even know it’s aliasing? Measure the aliasing on Sound Toys Decapitator, it “looks” awful but sounds great and has been used on top hits and productions by the audio engineering elite for donkeys years.
LOL. measuring and analyzer view. 😅
Use your ears.
This Cubase onstock comp is amazing and on par with pro expensive thirdparty stuff.
@@theaudiocooker2423 Measuring tools? You don't need them - send a sweep through it and you'll HEAR the aliasing.
@@theaudiocooker2423 Measuring tools? Just run a sweep and use your ears! You can hear the aliasing loud and clear.
