How to Use Meters to Get Better Mixes & Masters

Learn how to use metering in your DAW for mixing and mastering at three different experience levels using iZotope Insight and iZotope Tonal Balance Control. In the first level, learn what metering is and how it can tell you how loud your track is before you distribute it. In level two, learn how to use metering to determine how tonally balanced your mix is across the frequency spectrum. In level three, use metering to visualize and fix frequency masking using a spectrogram.

I am an audio school graduate and recording engineer and have had these plugins for years and have never used them. Wow, im blown away at what this can do. Thank you!

[NovoHorizonteRio]

I have to admit that iZotope has become my favorite when it comes to mixing and mastering. Not only the amazing plugins and apps themselves, but also the very well done tutorials. Thank you!

BLOWN AWAY... This Should Be Automictically Linked After The Purchase Of This Plug In Or If This Plug In Is Included In Other Izotope Packages. GREAT JOB!

[TangleWireTube]

Had no idea you could colour code the spectrogram. I love it so much when I learn something new like this.

[dspoet]

Masterclass for sure. Ima rewatch this a few times.

Sam, you are bloody good. Fantastic! Izotope should be proud of you.

the best lecture ever that's what any musician needs

This is really helpful thank you. I finally understand the LUF. It's been years since I recorded anything and when you get a bunch of new gear and instruments I realize I got to change things all up because they're very different. The volumes and the peaks are all different. This is the treasure info I was searching for. I used to do that with the cheap headphones test I wish I didn't throw them away. Hehe

[boonong]

Love the tutorial and i learn so much using these plugins properly.

[Colin-cr]

Amazing plug-in, I’m going to use this from now on, great host

Yeah man. I just upgraded my copy of "Music Production Suite" so umm good🙂👍 I like that joint. It's been out for a few years now but still a cool banga🔥🔥🔥✌✌✌

I've run several pro recordings through a meter and I'm getting mid to upper 20's lufs. Do we need to go any higher?

[Harrysound]

Oh wow, I thought the crest factor meter was for the whole track not just the low end portion

[Reggi_Sample]

I have completely disrespected the power of tonal balance control 😮

[Mixedbyjojo]

This must be called “the guide to eye mixing”
