  • Take a sneak peek into my Worship Sound Wisdom course and learn how to use audio gates.
    To learn more and join the Worship Sound Wisdom waiting list, click here: bit.ly/WorshipSoundWisdomWaiti...
    I try to avoid using gates when possible, since they're usually fixing a problem I can solve some other way at the source, but they're a tool worth knowing how to use, since they can get you out of a pinch. Watch as I show you the theory of how the gate works, and then demonstrate it, showing you all the controls to shape the sound and push down the noise.

    I use GATES alot.. my stage is in a Corner, with the Drums 8' from the typical Downstage Vocal position. I make sure that the Vox Mics are 'closed' as much as possible to help with Ambient Noise from the Kit, yet fast enuf to catch the Vox when required. Thanks for the Tips on Attack/Release

      You might consider the chili peppers gate, depending on what your context is. Essentially have two vocal mics on top of each other flipped out of polarity. This allows for a clean signal to come into just one mic, but anything that is coming into both gets canceled out.

    Thanks for this great tutorial. I never was able to grasp the concept of gate even in my audio school to this day. But now I'm enlightened. Thanks a lot again.

  • @billyknowdownside5026
    @billyknowdownside5026 Před 3 lety

    Thanks! Your method of "explanation & example" really helped improve my understanding of these "Knob Labels" and their impacts on the wave file (audio). "Knob Label: Range" is still elusive to me.

    • @AttawayAudio
      @AttawayAudio  Před 3 lety

      Range or Depth is the highest (lowest?) amount the gate will push down the signal when it's closed.

    Hey Friend good and nice informative Videos. Thank you very much. Which console is that you had on the table?

    • @AttawayAudio
      @AttawayAudio  Před 4 lety

      Hey Srinivas! The console is the PreSonus StudioLive 32 series iii. It has a lot of great features for teaching. Very helpful.

    • @AttawayAudio
      @AttawayAudio  Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you, that's a great idea! I'll look into making a YT video focused on it!
      (This isn't me throwing a course at you) I actually have content about compressors, among MANY other topics, inside of Attaway Audio Academy: www.attawayaudio.com/academy
      It's only $19 a month and I encourage you to check it out!

    Interesting... as far as I'm understanding, it's good for bass, so the bass resonance doesn't invade and challenge against other frequencies.

    @jdj2035 Před 4 lety

    Can you explain why you went with the PreSonus mixer over a x/m32 or another board in the same range?

    • @AttawayAudio
      @AttawayAudio  Před 4 lety +1

      Great question! It has some features that are really helpful for teaching - A/B on EQ, compression & gates, plus easy VSC options built-in. I’m already a StudioOne fan, so DAW mode is helpful for me too. Plus I just like being a little different, so I thought I’d try something not everyone else has. It has its limitations (no de-esser option...???) but it’s mostly for teaching, so the no-Dante thing doesn’t cramp my style much.

    • @jdj2035
      @jdj2035 Před 4 lety

      I’m mixing with a m32 with the WSG waves card every week. Running auto tune with our vocals and some EQ and compression on the kick. The routing limitations kind of suck since we still do most of our eq, compression, etc in the m32 still. I’d love to be able to put the waves behind the EQ and compression like you’ve shown on the SSL board your mix on, but it isn’t possible.
      All in all it’s a good board, but I’m ready for the next level.
      I’m really liking the look of the waves lv1 with the right stage boxes and multi touch monitors. I played with one at infoCOMM this year and it was pretty easy to figure out the workflow of the board.

    • @AttawayAudio
      @AttawayAudio  Před 4 lety

      That sounds like a pretty rad setup, nonetheless! Aside from the tuning, another option you could try for creative compression is using it on mix busses. If you can get the routing/latency worked out, it can add a whole lot of fun things to try. Of course, it's all baby steps; no one thing you do is going to transform your mix. I haven't tried the LV1 yet, mostly because I really love the tactile feeling of faders and not staring at a screen. Let me know when you upgrade how that goes!
