    Thank you, I've bought a mixer (was told to buy a slightly better one than you need because your setup will expand) I'm utterly baffled by all the buttons and knobs and have been using a fraction of its potential and often have the mixer poised to throw out the window. Your tutorials are helping but I am finding it tough and watch them many times.

    Would it be correct to say that when describing a wave curve in an XY graph, the sample rate is the amount of steps/second on the X axis and the bit depth is simply the amount of increments on the Y axis?

    I'm wondering if analog tape sound is about wow, flutter, hiss, and other, normally unwanted artifacts or does real tape simply impart a depth of image as well as soft edges that are more forgiving than digital to a performance.

    So how you get 5 gain reduction help me with the math 😮 from how i understand it lets say my threshold is set at 10db and my ratio is 3:1 you normally do the math by taking away 10 from 3 and adding back 1 and you get 8db is the correct method

    Better to think of it as a internal fader that controls the output volume level, rather than just a gate that opens and closes. In fact it is a volume controller in digital form.

    So in a song with both electrified and acoustic guitar parts, the net effect would be the acoustic would be as loud and as defined as the electric portion? Also, personally, I wouldn't want to record anything that couldn't be reproduced live. A studio album with live support is one thing and you can do anything with it. Artists and bands who expect to tour their music should understand that audience got into their music based on the recording.

  • @poseidon3032

    Cool. For the last year, I've been playing my music through a phone with the VLC app out to various speakers, namely 1 speaker portable ones. It's been difficult trying to get a balanced sound through the 10 frequency equalizer. With a song playing, I would dial it in, getting it to sound good. And when the next song plays, not so much. Auuggh! Okay then. So I've been trying to balance it out between all the songs, making sacrifices where I need to. I sought out a video like this to explain because I've noticed that the vocals on each song would come out stronger in different frequencies. Like 1k, 2k, or 4k. I think this was very reason I was struggling to get proper equalization across all songs. I also noticed the quality differencs, and started thinking about the history of recordings and the available frequencies. The one thing that I've been trying to edit out is the echo. 500 was the worst. Probably had a lot to do with the smaller speaker. The strategy then became, "fill the echo' in hopes of canceling it out. I never thought it would be this tough.

    It hurts to listen to how many false claims and misinformation you are giving on this video. Perhaps you’d should do more research to understand your material rather than repeating myths and misinformation

    • @innovationsinm
      @innovationsinm 3 місяці тому

      @@nicksterj saying that a higher sample rate is more accurate. Perhaps at a very big push more accurate in the top end of the frequency range that most people,e cannot hear if you do lots of processing functions on top of each other rather than using a bus. Saying a higher bit depth has a higher dynamic range again is theoretically true, but in practice it means a lower noise floor that in most situations is irrelevant. Again it is only important in over processing where a badly written okug-in can introduce noise. But a plug-in could have its own over sampling to eliminate that phenomenon. To say that a higher sample bit depth is just going to sound better is just a misleading generalization and promotes a misconception.

    • @innovationsinm
      @innovationsinm 3 місяці тому

      @@nicksterj sadly you are showing your lack of understanding about how Nyquist works. Having a higher sample rate will make no difference to the accuracy of the frequency range you hear, all it allows you to do is to accurately reproduce frequencies well above the audible range or in the case of music production you can put on a much more pleasant roll off on your high pass filter to reject any artifacts from plug-ins you have on your DAW. Recording a 100hz sinewave at 44.1khz will give you the exact same accuracy as recording the same sinewave at 96khz or 192khz The whole concept of it being some jagged step like they loved to put on marketing material for CD’s is utter nonsense. So saying otherwise is a total disservice. Sure there are reasons to record at a higher frequency, as I had said, it does give you more processing room to eliminate artifacts in some post production plug-ins but it can be just as questionable if it really does anything. You are just as likely to introduce bit errors inside the recording from using a computer with non EEC memory but you don’t see anyone promoting that. Then you say about dynamic range. 24bit sound does have more dynamic range, but again it’s misrepresented by some as more sound resolution. It is not, again a 100hz sinewave recorded at 1db with a 24bit encoding will be identical to the same sinewave recorded at 16bit. And then you talk about increasing or compressing the sound, but as you are doing this all in the digital domain you are not limited by the same limitations that analog had. Then when you throw in the fact that most people prefer having an actual audible sound floor in they will purposefully add in tape hiss as a plug in. There is a saying that good is not good enough and better is always better, So with that theory we should all throw out our cell phones and earbuds as they all fall below even the good thresholds and only listen to music on $3,000,000+ equipment as better is always better.

    At last, a UA-cam channel where the person doing the explaining/teaching has some pedagogy skills. Thank you for taking the time to explain things in a clear and concise manner, while also taking the time to preemptively answer many of the 'when, where, why' questions students may have have. Explaining such questions, before they are asked, is certainly a hallmark of great teaching --certainly a skill 95.5 of UA-cam channels lack.
