You Won't Believe How Loud!

Great tip, clipping has change my life, I get so much head room now and my final compressor and limiters aren’t working as hard to contain the snare and kick, legend thankyou!!

Thank you very much steaky!It's amazing technic!With respect from Crimea!

Great man! Following you for a long time now, since I started following you and appying your advices, my producing quality improved like crazy, I even get complimented alot on my mixes in feedback sessions with A&Rs and other producers! 😵 Thank you so much! <3

Amazing tip thank you from Orlando FL

oooo cant wait to try this

That's interesting, Streaky. That is precisely why I recommend the Spectra 1964 V610 peak limiters to review. This is exactly how I see them on the (front end) of the mastering chain - which in turn allows the rest of the chain to focus entirely on the content of the mix rather than the in-audible peaks. Give it another go if you have a chance. Spectra very much appreciated your review ages ago. Cheers mate. Thank you for your support and coursework

Thanks a lot!!!!

Thank you for this! Another golden nugget from the Master!!

Oh.. got to try this.

🔥🔥🔥if you know, you, know..Great work!!

It sounds so good, will this boost reduce the effect of any sidechain compression I have on? Or would there be any point in adding sidechain after the clipper? Thanks!

Thank you, 2 questions. Can I just that that without exporting the stems in the different busses? and also can I rather use an actual clipper for the busses? thank you

great tips

I've always switched to my crappy bass boosted speakers in order to hear distortions in the kick and bass like that but I've never even realised this is how its supposed to be done!

Basically, stem mastering. Really works when it's indeed necessary. 🙂👍

Best teacher in the world

Hi Streaky, I’ve recently gotten around to using your presets for Pro-MB and Pro-Q3, there’s some proper gems in there, thanks! I’m asking about the use of the mastering presets, particularly Pro-Q 3 ’Bottom Separator’ and Pro-MB ’Loosen The Bottom’. With the goal of making the mix as good as possible, if you had access to the mix bus (at the mix stage, before mastering) would you apply this kind of processing? Or should these presets always be used for mastering? My mindset is to make the mix as good as it can be. So now I have these presets that define and control the low end, is there any harm in adding them at mixing stage? Additionally, would you ever recommend a mix engineer adds these presets on the mix bus, AHEAD OF mix bus compression (typical 4:1 SSL G-comp) to lighten it’s load going into the comp? In other words, because I CAN control the low end at mix stage (with these presets), should I? Or in your experience, does this take too much ‘energy’ away from the mix if applied before mix bus comp? Thanks very much in advance!

stem mastering.I'mma try this in the mix with my final busses. Ialso have two more final busses being the vocals and music and bass and drums. I think imma bounce those two final final busses seperetly to see if they have any crazy peaks cause thats gonna add up too, then limit and clip them by just a little then put all this into my mi buss chain being fed into my master chain.

It sounded better before the clipping imo… no dynamics left after. Try listen on your phone speaker and you will even hear the difference.

For trance and house music, this might work but please clarify whether this will work for orchestral music?
