Hi Guys, i recently learned a trick about Haas Effect.. but i am little confused in this that..can i use haas effect on every track in mix except Kick, Bass and Snare ?? can i use haas effect on Different Busses ?
Basically i produce Progressive House kind stuff...where plucks,pads,paino type elements i use most .


any help would be appriciated. Thank You

There are no rules. Just remember that Haas introduces comb filtering when summed to mono. Just a heads up.

Generally any directional (hi freq / reflective) sound will benefit from Haas. Omnidirectional (low freq / "penetrating") sound is kinda best dry & central. Try sounds. Learn?

- I mean, (there are no =) rules are there to be broken, but best stick to those two? Unless mud & noise & phasey mess is ur goal?

 

I mix using the LCR technique. Haas effect is what I use when I don't want something to be hard right, center, or hard left for some tracks, but I stick to LCR as much as possible. LCR seems anti-intuitive if you have never tried it, but the more you stay on it the easier it is to avoid phase problems or frequency masking. I found a little reading material: https://www.sageaudio.com/blog/pre-mastering-tips/use-haas-effect.php

 

found a good article on the lcr technique.

 

lcr best way unless 11.1 surround haha

 

There is no rules for it .. It is not like fundamental mixing steps , it is more like production. I use it but i know for what i need to use it

 

I actually mix in 15.1 surround.

 

i wouldn't limit the amount of time u use an effect as long as its not creating problems on the " mixbus = your whole mix " your good.
