Many successful mixers use compression on their stereo output. There's a reason mix bus compressors are a thing. I get that it can be done poorly. But I'd advise someone to try it before they dismiss it at as a bad idea. It can be a great way to achieve glue across a whole mix. I would just say not to set the attack too fast, the release too slow, or the ratio too high. Shoot for 1-2 db of compression.
This Is also true...what Sage Audio means, is that not everytime will it be necessary,,, but also every mixing eng or producer knows their own way of arriving at a final cut... If I am Not wrong...
Finally a channel with real true great and advanced tips and techniques, congrats !!! Also each featured track sounds really good, smooth and balanced, will check the mastering service for sure ! 👍🏻
Another amazing set of tips, especially the tips to do with phase rotation. Only one I don't agree with is using compression on the stereo out. Mix bus processing (and mix bus compression especially) can definitely destroy your mix if used incorrectly as you stated. However if used correctly can provide a track with more punch, glue and overall balance. In this video you compress the whole signal by 7 dB, which is bound to destroy a mix, a simply guideline I try to follow to prevent myself from destroy a mix via mix bus processing is to avoid compressing over 4 dB or adding more than 4 dB via EQ and Saturation. I wouldn't stay away from it I would embrace it, however with caution.
I said the same thing. Mix bus compression is incredibly common. And it's used by many of the most successful mixers. There are literally compressors described as "mix bus compressors." I would just advise anyone doing it to not set the attack too fast, the release too slow, or the ratio too high. I personally shoot for 1-2 db of compression. I'd also advise people to use the right compressor type for the job. VCA-style compressors work best, in my opinion.
Your videos are great, thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have one suggestion - some explanation during the demo portion of each section would be really helpful to folks who aren't sure what to listen for. Something like 'listen to how X affects Y'. Thanks!
Last video about the 10 different ways of using Soothe 2 is just perfect for that! And provides a lot of other amazing techniques. Thank you Sage Audio 👌
I'm not gonna say you do or you don't. I'm not a doctor butttttttttttt...... I had a similar problem when trying to learn new tNice tutorialngs and it helped
2:40 This Trick 💯

Amen. I use the ikmultimedia bus compressor with about 1 db reduction and it absolutely makes a difference. So much smoother

Yes I would say it depends on taste/experience. I find it easier to mix, when everything gets in a mixbus comp at the end
Ya he was also compressing 5db and I was under the impression to glue around 1 db 5 is way to noticeable
I use SSLs Bus Comp 2. It sounds so good on the master bus. Everything sounds so much more consistent. Its got an over sampling feature too

Great, as always 👍🏻
Awesome content as always ... ty!
Worked, thx
Do you have a video already describing the use of gullfoss on different buses sidechained to one another? I'm interested in this idea
Thanks a lot! I m not a telegram user, do you have a regular email where I could reach you?
I've tried with great results sidechaining the vocals and instrumental as suggested in another video, excellent tip, it worked like a charm
@@alexandrecapelier that's a scam. I hope you didn't give them any money.
@@DaDandyman course not 😉, but thanks for warning other people!

is this a chain for stereo output channel plzzzz ??
I wouldn't use these steps as a chain - each one is useful for a specific problem you might be having in your mix.
@@sageaudio thank you very much sir...yes i understand now thank you for your responce
the last step in RX u should do before or after mastering? i didnt get that, sorry. can u make it clear? thanks
Nice

Without fabfilter? Lol
You can apply these techniques using any plugin of your choice. He just happened to use Fabfilter’s tools
Yep its just an alternative all of the stuff you have in your daw, it's the concepts you should apply not necessarily the plugin
