 Up
  master levels in Sonar 7         


Author: jeffl

Just wondering what actually happens (if anything) when you dial back your
master levels a bit. I'm getting better at it but I still find myself
ending up with a mix that's too loud-ie-over 2 or 3 and dial the masters
back to -2 or -3 to compensate. Is there tone loss or anything going on I
should be aware of? Also, for the general rock mix do you recommend
throwing a compressor over a master bus to take care of these peaks
instead --if so, what are people using and what would a typical setting be
for limiting?
I generally bring the mix into an old version of Sound Forge and do a simple
mastering including L1-sonic maximizer to fatten up and also some basic eq.
I have the Waves bundle.
Any thoughts appreciated!
Jeff

Since they're not gonna do that, I suggest Googlebar lite for
Firefox; it doesn't install extra processes like the full Google
toolbar but AFAICT you get the same features, including Site Search
button.

That's real cool...to go along with a great story on the kitchen btw.

How'd they hear about your song in the first place?

  Sup 2.0 Drum X-drum question         


Author: jeffl
Date: Jan 29, 2010 06:44

Okay, I have a base drum kit-Thrall uptempo kit-wanna just add a tambourine
but when I pick one out from the percussionist folder it will not sound.
BTW-I'm able to load the entire percussion ist as a base kit and play. And
I'm also able to load in other x-drums and they will sound --just not
percussion...?
Another BTW---not sure if anyone remembers me having problems loading the
Metal Foundry samples into my DAW(bad cd drive)--I did a workaround by
loading them into an ext drive thru a different computer and then loaded the
samples into my DAW successfully. Curiously I was never prompted to
register my product w/my serial number and MF works and shows up fine in Sup
2.0 for me. I did, however recently load in my NY Hit factory
(excellent-sounds GREAT) and Allaire with the usual...
