so we can get the lowdown on all this trickery well really all it is is this a 32-bit
hard... uh, software mixer right. Yeah.
But because it's 32 bit, you can crank the crap out of
the levels internally. So I can take this fader and ride it up to say
+9. And it won't clip. Hmmm.
It chops the top of but it does it in a way that
it doesn't sound dynamically compressed. Like a soft clipping type thing?
So you can push it up and it sounds loud without sounding
[distorted] compressed. Or distorted. Jody was just like:
I don't know what you did man, but the file you gave me, the mastering... It's the loudest I've ever heard
and it's like
doesn't sound bad at all. It sounds great. Well, yeah.
He did a master of Touch. Uh huh.
That he gave back to me and I was like it was just... what did I say? Mind shredding loud?
Yeah. It was super super loud. [it was so loud...] I didn't even realize I had done this
when I did it. Until I went back and looked and I went, oh wait a minute I didn't go through this whole thing that I thought I was going through.
And I'm looking at the meters of my thing and my meters are still going up and down with all the dynamics.
I'm like how the F^#$ is it so God damn loud!
Yeah. And not like: Phhhhfffftttt!
Like crushed. Normally you do that and it gets crushed. What I discovered is that you can actually use this internal
little mixer
to jack the heck out of your levels, but it doesn't distort. Wow.
And it doesn't sound compressed. That's cool.
It is really cool. Cause it's like you can add 6 to 9 db of limiting without it sounding at all
like that's what you did. The nice thing that I like about the master that I did is
The attack of the kick and the snare are still there. Dynamically
it's like BAM BAM it just sounds so good.
I couldn't believe it. I was like, what the hell. Okay, are we ready? We're ready. We're ready. Anybody ready?
