This video is a literal goldmine of understanding. I just learned so much, thanks man. It was like the last secret sauce tidbits I needed to really solidify my understanding.
I have seen many vids, but I think u explained it where I could understand in plain English! :) If you have anymore suggestions, I would s till like another vid part 2, perhaps gain stage and how u mix. Thanks.
This is helpful information. I usually just turn down the volume directly on the plugin, then use the mixer knob to adjust the instrument sound to taste in context with the other sounds in the beat/song. You exposed some new techniques. I'll be watching this video over, until I understand what you were doing with the gain plugin and the peak and loudness. Can you do a mixing tutorial video? Thanks for sharing your expertise. Blessings and peace to you and yours.
Pre-fader metering is just a good way to see the level of the signal entering the channel. But it’s also important to check post fader metering to see what is exiting the channel and being sent to downstream processors
There would be no difference. -18 full scale average would still be the optimal input level. You can then increase or decrease the input level a bit, to achieve the desired tone.
woudl be nice if we coudl disable that 'analog behavior' from eth past and directly mix hot without first normalising to see something and then reduce teh gain again thats just stupid
Of all the gain staging videos I’ve seen on CZcams this is by far one of the clearest and most concise ones I’ve seen. Thanks, Maurice!
Thx so much
Totally agree.

Glad it helped!

This can be the best production information video before the sleep good night man..
Well done! This video answered a lot of unknowns and questions with mixing..
Glad it was helpful!
People have much to gain by watching you sir!
I see what you did there. Thanks for watching.
This is very great to know. It’s really interesting that you understand how to use it. Okay so I can have your input and mix my projects
Glad it was helpful!
This was a great video. Didn't realize the DAW channels wouldn't clip. Very simple and straightforward explanation.
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful. Thank you Maurice.
My pleasure!
Excellent explanation. Thanks Maurice.
Glad it was helpful!
omg subbing you right now. I'm a self taught engineer and you are definitely holding massive exp under your belt. Would love to see more.
Thanks for the sub!
23 bit hot tip blew my mind
Fun stuff right?
Great explanation and thoughtful language - I’ll need to watch a few times however as there is a fair bit of info! Cheers Maurice. JPMusic
Thanks so much for watching watching

That would be happy to do one when I can.
Gain staging is King
Excellent- thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video thanks. How does pre-fader metering fit in to this?
Pre-fader metering is just a good way to see the level of the signal entering the channel. But it’s also important to check post fader metering to see what is exiting the channel and being sent to downstream processors
Any tips on gainstaging instrument tracks that have Neural plugins or amp sims?
There would be no difference. -18 full scale average would still be the optimal input level. You can then increase or decrease the input level a bit, to achieve the desired tone.
@@chevaliermusic thanks!
🙏
32 bit float is better for newbs but I prefer to do it correctly first .
What's the key command to normalize region?
It may differ based on the version of Logic you’re using. Try looking under the edit menu in the main tracks view.
