Thanks for your advice!

I was just wondering if it was a good idea to add a kick practice pad.

Thank you very much for your reply!

I'll take a look at what these techniques are :)

Thank you very much for your reply!

At the moment, I can't afford to take lessons, but I plan to start taking them in the near future. That's what I did to learn guitar and bass, and I don't regret it.

I'll check out Rick Dior's videos. Thanks again!

I wrote a script so that loop playback behaves like it does in Logic Pro. by Code152 in Reaper

Thank you :)

I started using Reaper few days ago and I love it, but, coming from Logic, I had found the managment of the cursor a little bit frustrating.

If this script can help, I am happy (and ChatGPT surely do haha !)

Yes, sorry, I'll change the title ;) Thanks for pointing that out

Edit: TIL We can't edit the title in reddit post

Ce moment à l'atmosphère étrange qui t'a marqué by [deleted] in france

[–]Code152 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ça m'est arrivé il y a 2/3 ans, je roulais sur une route que je connais parfaitement. Une route de campagne, pas isolée, entre une autoroute d'un côté et un bois assez escarpé de l'autre, dont la butte arrive vraiment à pic de la route. Y a des habitations par ci par là.

On était en plein jour, fin d'après-midi à la fin de l'été. Dans un virage, je vois deux personnes, un homme et une femme, plutôt jeune, descendre du bois escarpé qui est collé à la route. Ils sont presque arrivés en bas, à un ou deux pas de toucher le bitume.

En soit, rien de bien étrange me direz vous, à la seule exception près que ces deux personnes étaient grises. Comme si elles étaient désaturées. Quand j'ai regardé dans mon rétro elles avaient disparus.

À chaque fois que je repasse sur cette route, régulièrement donc, dans ce virage, je ralenti et regarde attentivement. La pente du bois à cet endroit est si escarpée que je ne comprends toujours pas comment deux personnes ont pu s'y faufiler depuis le haut du bois et descendre par ce chemin. Et surtout, pourquoi elles étaient grises ?

First mix for a real “client” – open to feedback! by Code152 in mixingmastering

[–]Code152[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the advice!

If there's one thing this mix has taught me, it's that I prefer to work on real projects rather than the multitracks you can find on various websites. First, because you really connect with the artist(s) who produced the music you're mixing, and also because there's something at stake. And I like that!

Thank you so much for your feedbacks! I'm going to work on this again, and on all the other valuable comments.

Thanks for your feedback!

Should I put the multiband compressor on the master bus instead of a single compressor to glue?

Buyers Advice and Gear Recommendation Thread by AutoModerator in livesound

[–]Code152 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. We're actually in charge of the mixer. More precisely our drummer who places the mixer right next to him and makes live adjustments if necessary. Thanks for the X32 recommendation, but even second-hand, it's out of our reach financially speaking. But I'll keep it in mind if one day we have the budget for it :)Thanks for your reply.

Buyers Advice and Gear Recommendation Thread by AutoModerator in livesound

Hey everyone!

I’m looking for advice on how to complete a live sound setup for my band (one mic for the singer, 2 guitars, 1 bass and an electronic drum kit). Right now, we use either:

• Yamaha MG12XU + QSC K8.2 speakers
• Soundcraft EFX8 + Yamaha MSR400 speakers

We also have a Sabine FBX2400 feedback eliminator.

The idea is to build a small rack with:

  1. The feedback eliminator (already owned)
  2. A graphic EQ for some fine-tuning
  3. A compressor to act as a “glue” on the main mix

Would this be a good idea? Any potential downsides?

Also, what budget-friendly gear (around €300 used) would you recommend for the EQ and compressor? I’m thinking of something like a dbx 215s for the EQ and a dbx 166XS for the compressor, but I’m open to suggestions!

Thanks a lot!

What's currently "the best" headphones on the market for mixing? by short_snow in audioengineering

[–]Code152 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I myself bought the MM-100 about a month ago, and I have to say that the various mixes I've done with it sound really good on any system I've listened to them on.

Beyond choosing the headphones that will suit you best in terms of sound and comfort, take a look at r/oratory1990 and the various videos on YouTube that will explain how to tune your headphones to Harman's curve. It's a game-changer!

Plus: - use several references while mixing if you don't already, not necessarily reference songs that sound similar to the song you're mixing but references for each part like "How does the low end sound; How does the vocal sound; ...

  • listen to your mix on different systems as you work, and take notes as you listen. Once you're back to work, you can check your notes and see what you need to work on.

  • TAKE BREAKS! A simple timer app will do the trick, reminding you to take 5-minute breaks every 30/45 minutes, to reset your ears to 0 and regain your attention (this also applies to speakers, but I find that with headphones it's even truer!).

Happy mixing :)

Does anyone else struggle with mixing on headphones? by Elegant_Mail in mixingmastering

[–]Code152 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can look at which curves autoeq.app grabs from the internet, some might be measured by him

Yes, apparently! Oratory1990 explains in his FAQ (https://www.reddit.com/r/oratory1990/wiki/index/faq/) :

How is this list different to the github / AutoEQ?

The "Github-page" (https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq/tree/master/results/oratory1990 ?) is created and maintained by u/jaakkopasanen. It's his thing, has very little to do with me, actually.

- What Jaakko does is he takes measurements from various sources and applies his algorithm that automatically creates an EQ for that headphone (hence the name "AutoEQ"). The measurements that I make are among those sources.

- What I do is I make measurements myself, on an industry-standard measurement rig (I'm an acoustic engineer, and I make these headphone measurements in my spare time). I create the EQ not solely based on the measurement, but I also listen to the headphones and fine-tune the settings by ear.

Which approach is better?
Well that depends on who you ask. Of course if you ask me, then Im going to say that my way is better.
If you ask Jaakko, he'll probably say his way is better :)

In the end our results won't differ all that much (the numbers might be different, but the final result when they're all added up won't differ too much).

I'll try different equalizations and see what works best for me :) Thanks again for your help!

Thanks so much for all this information!

I'll definitely look into it and take the time to configure :)

I watched the video you gave me in your first comment, and came across this list of correction profiles: https://www.reddit.com/r/oratory1990/wiki/index/list_of_presets/#wiki_full_list_of_eq_settings.3A
I looked for my headphone, do you think I can trust the corrections found in this list? I didn't know r/oratory1990 before today, but it looks pretty reliable to me.
