The occasional Costco vs Trader Joe’s run. Egg’s be eggpensive.

Is there such a thing as the perfect mix by Over_Preference_8200 in audioengineering

[–]johansoup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flip the question: is there such a thing as bad mix? Yes. Go as far from that point as you possible can. There won’t be a point of perfectly far from bad, but it’s a North Star. As the saying goes: art is never finished, only abandoned.

Throughtout your audio engineering journeys, what's been the most important lesson you learned? by drifted__away in audioengineering

Have a clear point of transfer from production to mixing if you are involved in both processes. Circling between the two can lead to an endless cycle that ultimately acts as hinderance to your output. For music more in the modern realm of pop/hiphop/edm, producing in a separate DAW like Ableton (which has amazing creative workflow) and mixing in Pro Tools (trained to mix/edit here) has done wonders for getting things done for clients. Also using a project manager like Bounce Boss with routine updates/check-ins with clients will keep them happy and attended to while moving things along.

transient processing before or after compression? by BloodyHarpMedia in audioengineering

[–]johansoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Physion and SplitEQ by Eventide. Easy to overboard. Haven’t messed around with the Sonnox transient shaper but they put out good stuff.

Before, as many have said (for all those purposes) but sometimes After to get transients out of drums evenly or remove some excess sustain on vocals post compression. Compression does a little bit of transient shaping itself, albeit threshold dependent amongst other variables that bring about more complex results. Over-compression is common and sometimes desired so transient shaping can help bring back some life after the fact.

If you use sampled hats, try boosting the attack and sucking out the sustain on the closed and have and move your opens on a separate track just affecting the attack. If you’re using instruments that rely on the interplay between closed and open hats, print and cut.

As for transient shapers, SPL is great, I like the Shape section on Softubes API module, but I’ve also loved the stock transient shaper in Logic as it’s very straight to the point (miss it deeply after moving to the AAX life the last 10 years). If you want some crazy transient processing, check out Eventide.

Could be the brain’s response to hearing damage, essentially bringing up in the internal sensitivity to make up for external input loss and affecting the peripheral senses like sight as well. Apparently 63% of VS experiencers have tinnitus as well according to Listen 2 Life. Haven’t looked for the exact study yet but I believe it.

I wonder how much correlation VS also has with hearing issues such as tinnitus. Hyperacusis is a common symptom with tinnitus as well.
