You are the first guy I’ve found in a long time who isn’t just recycling what everyone else has been saying but actually giving new audio knowledge. Respect

[j.stribling]

This knocked my socks off! When you demonstrated what is happening with signal processing speed vs wavelength — never thought about it before but it makes perfect sense, logically and audibly. Thank you. You really increased my understanding in a meaningful way.

I began falling down the rabbit hole of thinking I need hardware to mix and master. While tools are nice, knowledge is much more helpful. Thank you for this.

[burninator]

holy crap - so nice to see a mixer have exactly what they want to achieve in mind, talk through the thought clearly and pull up the precisely right processing tool to execute as you're describing it. beautiful vid man.

[hughmitchellmusic]

Thank you for showing us actual technique. This change the way I think about how individual instruments interact how a mix fits new together

[xrabbz]

It’s so refreshing to see someone posting videos who can explain the science and demonstrate the application. Outstanding work, glad I came across this, I’ll be binging this channel in the coming days!

I wanted to tell you that you made things a little bit more complicated with this approach. But after watching the whole video, your tips are actually very helpful. Especially if someone struggles with having the low end sit in the mix well. Thank you!

[elymuff]

Finally! After countless attempts to understand this specific scenariao on YT, I think yours was the lesson that flicked the switch in my (sometimes lazy) mind, and I 'm now much, much closer to working this all out.

[aintnopicnic]

You really bring something new and valueable to the table. Much appreciated.

3:01 There is a more easy way. Acon Digital Dynamics does not introduce any harmonics from 20Hz to 20kHz in any configuration as long as the lookahead is >25ms.

[NCz]

WOW, OMG... Thank you for taking the time to post this. I had no idea that the attack and release time on compression could introduce or take away harmonics. Really great video!

[ITRiBUTEI]

The best part of your videos is watching you jam to every track

And that's saying a lot since your videos are packed with info

Thank you

[inkwell]

Command clicking on the tracks volume display changes it to peak measurement. This is useful if you don't want to open an analyzer to find the fundamentals peak amplitude.

[LucasMichalski]

Thank you for another great video. Quick question. When you're finding the perfect attack/release time for compressing bass, why do you divide 5000 over the frequency? What is that 5000? Thank you

[jxcn]

I was already familiar with the concept and this was such a fantastic demonstration that helped me understand this to a much better level, thanks!

[LeoJusten]

one of the best videos about low frequencies so far. Congrats from brazil

[janzimmermann]

Thank you for your videos! Most channels just scratch the surface but from u I can always lean something even after 8+ years of prodcing

[astrobearmusic]

Very good workflow! When you use LUFS to balance the loudness of each bass notes do you ever run into issues where different notes take different headroom? Since LUFS does a frequency dependent weighting Some of your bass notes would have to have a larger amplitude in order to hit the same LUFS. Maybe it’s not really noticeable difference, so just wanted to ask if you ever have to consider that for downstream processes that depend on peak amplitude such as saturation.

[markbeling]

Bloody fantastic!! Loving your channel Nick! Been doing this for 24 years and still picking up so much from your channel. Thank you

[dannyjohnstone]

Can you please show this lesson with aucustic instruments as well?
