    I love all of Monomono's devices. I got the new pack with the Console a few weeks ago and it's great. If you click on the "Monomono" logo on the Console, there's a hidden feature where you can simulate re-routing the audio. I don't fully understand what it does exactly, but it sounds like ends up applying different saturation curves to the source audio. Great videos!

    Cool Rack! I can also recommend the free Mix Matcher MaxForLive device by Funkatronics. Its a Perfect addition to the Mixing UU Rack. And mybe doing the EQ Filters in Parallel would be better than doing them after on and another. This would allow for listening lows and mids together. great Video tho! Cheers!

      Damn right, MixMatcher is the 🐐. I actually used it in one of my previous videos as a instrument conflict analyzer (that was before I discovered TDR Prism which is free and way better).

      @Zdrewe 10 днів тому

      First of all, thanks a lot for watching man! With all respect gain staging is really an overrated therm especially in digital age. If you don't mind, you can watch my other video about mixing super loud where I showed slightly different approach - clipping every bus (and instrument) to 0dB and then playing with faders to get things to the level I want. It all depends on the genre and loudness target you aim for but to answer your question - I usually start with putting everything to 0 and then I play with faders following the technique from this video

    My dream is that one day Ableton will have a way to use modulators like Bitwig, (of course you can create similar things, but in Bitwig it's something that becomes fun and intuitive) but even so, Ableton is my primary daw, because it's really powerful when you combine the tools

    • @Zdrewe
      @Zdrewe 10 днів тому

      100% agree. Funny thing is that I started to get more and more familiar with Bitwig tools due to some similar comments and well... those are the only thing I would add to make Live more powerful. As you said, you can trick the system by using M4L devices for that but still, it would be awesome to have those things stock.

    hi bro sorry if I write to you again for the same thing. where is this setting in live 12? then I wanted to ask you, I'm from fl studio. even on fl studio there was this setting exactly in the audio clip where you dragged the sample, pressed the wrench at the top and entered the time shift screen. together with the time shift there is also the delay time which I used to give a little delay to the hi hat layer. I don't know if you understand what I mean, however I use it often, do you know if this setting is also available on Live 12? I'm sorry if I comment like this, but I'm following your videos, they're super beautiful

    I love the fact that people decide to make these great M4L devices and make them free, but there are often issues with many of them. For instance, we have a tendency to believe that if it's made with Max 4 Live then the CPU usage is great. NOT SO with SOOOO many of these plugins. An example is the PRE 73 you showcase here. It sounds great, but the CPU usage is off the charts compared to similar plugins from great 3rd party manufacturers. For instance, I can set my buffer to 512 samples and use 20 instances of VPRE73 from Black Rooster with only 25% CPU usage (plus those are optimized so they only use CPU when audio is running thru them). Meanwhile, just 8 PRE 73 instances gets me to 25-28%... Sometimes 3rd party is just easier to use across a massive session because they take the time to optimize them.
