Okok. hmm no i used a few i tried Acustica Fire the clip ( GOOD results ) the i trike KClip OK result and bx_clipper way too strong but usefull on individual tracks AF

Lastly i setled with Sir Audio Tools Clipper. and the settings is like softest algo 55%-65% brings some punch out. Also it gained like 0.8-1 LUFS

 

Thank you. I was thinking of my name its rly hard, i came up with Johnny Boy Music for label, and had no luck in a nick, so i think i will be using my real name untill something just clicks there are names that fit and that doesnt. But for now it will stay

 

i would say to just never master your tracks, and if you do, never say it's mastered.

you should never have any energy in your soul left over to master your musical work. there's too much emphasis on tools and technology, but "the best music was made 300 years ago by dead dudes in wigs." and they weren't trying to decide what EQ to use n sheeyit. i mean as long as we're talking about music. are we talking about music or about instruments? the most important thing to a musician is how interested they are in making music. and to be interest-ing, one must be interest-ed, that is the magic ingredient to great art, not how popular you are or if someone else likes it or if its radio ready or any of that kind of outside validation.

I just wish someone told me that decades ago and stopped me from wasting my life.

 

I have soothe and pro Q 4, i just smashed them so they would punch thru,

Thats good advice, little changes, i get somewhat static i know that

I use shaperbox on shakers and stuff to automate volume, maybe use it on straight beats aswell!

 

hehe yeah well mastering is a thing now and i sent 5 tracks that i both mixed saved mastered saved. sent the mixed ones and compared versions, my "masters" where better or at same level i could not hear any big differences, so mastering is just limiting and transient handling plus stereowidth if you paralell it or not. Mastering is ez if you ask me, its all in the mix rly

 

I Use Sir Audio Tools, bx_clipper KClip3 and Fire the clip, Sir audio is the better one overall

 

Nice! try a transient shaper to get them to punch through. There are some great ones out there. My go to for years was Waves Smack, but lately have been using Transgressor. Its really interesting, and can get very transparent results. Highly tweakable too.

Yah, ive found over the years that when a song is "done" but you are still in the final stage of adjusting things, its easy to get carried away. Small incremental changes of 5-10% can really tighten things up / smooth things out. Sometimes even 10% is too much.

Shaperbox is awesome. Its my go to for volume shaping. Triggering it with MIDI is the best.

 

I have a magical name for you that will draw hundreds of millions of listens and people will flock to you like pigeons on breadcrumbs...Fenik Hargrove.

Your welcome. All I want is a tee-shirt in recognition.

 

Standard Clip isn't "better". At a certain point the increased available oversampling rates may barely matter. But they are usually used a little differently; especially if you like using the Assistant in Standard Clip so you will not end up with any overshoot in your render when you add it after the final limiter. The way you can unlink the input and output gain in Kclip3 can be really helpful, because by adjusting the input trim you can maximize the waveform signal-to-noise ratio without any compression. After that, you re-link them to minimize the amount of signal you are going to have as overs and adjust the threshold to dial in how much you are really clipping. You can toggle the Delta Monitor button on and off to adjust the amount of information getting clipped by listening to it solo'd that way. This is what people mean when they refer to it as "shaving".

 

oh damn, new info thank you, you know ur shit ;)
