PRODUCTION INSIGHT: TRUE PEAK LIMITING OR NOT

Hey fam,

end of last year I got a question of a Patron about my opinion on "true peak limiting" (such as on Fab Filter L2 f.e.) and what is it all about. I figured this actually is an interesting topic and answer for all of you. So I am more as happy to share it with my whole fam here.

To start with, what is true peak limiting precis...

Hey fam!

I did this DnB flip of RUMBLE just for fun and ofc wanted to share this with you already before I give it out for free some point later. The simple repetitive 1/16 bass groove of the original was literally bawling for it to be done this way, at least in my head :D

I tried to keep the original vibe alive as much as possible a...

MYTH BUSTER: MASTERING ENSURES MY TRACK WILL SOUND SPOT ON

Ahoi fam,

on this post today I am back at trying to bust another myth and share my thoughts on it for you.

And this time the myth is that "mastering will ensure a track is going to sound spot on in the end".

Well, simply put this imo is false. Don't get me wrong, mastering indeed can be an important factor to polish things a li...

Oi fam!

Got a new production insight for you here. A very simple but very effective gain staging / limiting hack to achieve an overall more open, clear and less compressed sound. In a nutshell: you share the load of working the "gain" on shoulders of more instances and by that get a clearer and more flavored signal; the video should speak ...

MYTH BUSTER: DO I ALWAYS NEED TO LOW CUT / HIGH PASS EVERYTHING EXCEPT BASS AND KICK 

Hey fam,

I am finishing off this month with looking at another music production myth. I very often hear "one always needs to get rid of all unnecessary low/bass frequencies to leave room for bass and kick". The myth is rooted on the following thought: "If the sound is a midrange or top-end sound, then it doesn’t need unnecessary bass or ...
