- Finally at the mixdown stage, nearly done now.
This episode will mainly be concerned with Clipping, saturating and slight EQ changes. The project luckily is quite clean, so not much in the form of Eqing is needed.

ok i gotta get that standard clip now. I've dismissed it initially because form my tests it let the most inter sample peaks through, compared to other clippers. Seeing why the softclip pro mode is good in this case persuaded me to acctually give it a proper try.
I use it quite a bit, I've not done any intersample peak tests though, did you enable the ceiling on it?
Heres what the manual says about Pro mode btw:
Soft Clip Pro
This mode has a slightly different characteristic. It compresses a dynamic range by half. A line in the function diagram shows the level at which the saturation begins. Dynamic integrity is maintained below this threshold.
25% - compresses the last 6 dB into 3 dB, and adds 3 dB
50% - compresses the last 12 dB into 6 dB, and adds 6 dB
75% - compresses the last 18 dB into 9 dB, and adds 9 dB
100% - compresses the last 24 dB into 12 dB, and adds 12 dB
@@samkitt ISP stuff probably is less relevant than cleaner and louder sound in case of bass/sub. i've tested it with ceiling on, but purely with number based approach, disregarding the sound. that might have been not the most appropriate way to do it, cuz yeah it sounds amazing on low-end.
if you want no intersample peak overs, turn off oversampling
See 'the science of clipping' from warp academy
Just watching this now, definitely a good one! Probably an idea to keep OS on for when you want to distort cleaner sounds, and then possibly turn it off for transient clipping for mixdowns etc. I'll try this on the next mix master process. Tbf you could probably just add another clipper right after without any oversampling just to catch a stray ISPs but I'm not sure if we're just chasing 0.1% things here by that point
It's a fine line between master and club ready, love to see the progression through this track
Any chance you can do a complete beginners tutorial?
I have talked about it with a friend and It would be something I'd like to do but I'm not sure If Id put it out on YT for free.
Given that it would take weeks of planning, and the same to film, edit etc Its hard for me to justify taking the time out of my actual production, tutoring etc. If I can generate enough interest and support that I can offer it affordably and still make it worth my while Its definitely something I'll consider in future.
