Have you ever mixed a vocal to sound great & found an awesome sounding reverb to go with it - only to find that there is still some muddiness in the mix? Most people don’t realize that even a great sounding reverb most likely still needs a little EQing. That’s because every song is different & the frequencies that consume each individual varies from song to song. Luckily with a little EQing, you can make any reverb sound amazing in the mix & sit perfectly with all the other tracks in the session.

Want to know the difference between gain & volume?

It's actually pretty simple!

They both allow you to increase or decrease the level of the sound.

Mid/Side EQ is a powerful tool for both mixing & mastering. For this post though, we're going to focus on the benefits of using it for mastering.

This week’s tutorial is an unboxing & review of the brand new WA-8000 mic released by Warm Audio!

If you produce, engineer, or even write music, you have come across an EQ & you probably know how important this tool is to shaping the sound & tone of your music. Even if you’re not an engineer, having some good EQs in your collection will be useful.

When it comes to setting your levels for mastering, start with the loudest part of the song first.

This will let you get your levels in place & help avoid any surprise clipping or over limiting/compressing later on.
