Are you Sebastian?
Excellent videos you’ve created! Very informative!
I would suggest to you that you make sure on each of your videos to add targeted KEYWORDS to your descriptions which will make searching out your videos on youtube a lot easier!
To see what I mean just search the following on youtube:
{ANY DAW BRAND NAME HERE} tutorial
and see your results. Looking at the videos and the descriptions of the top results will give ideas!
Fine tuning your keywords will get you MANY more subscribers and views!
(and for newbies: once you’ve selected a channel strip insert you can Right-Click your mouse on its colored name and select “Load Preset” from the popup menu to check out many excellent starting points!)
In Channel Strip I like:
Pre Gain
Noise Gate
All compressors - Standard, Vintage, Tube (for color as applicable)
DeEsser
Magneto II (Master Warmth preset)
Standard Limiter
on Group Channels
filters:
Low Cut (48 dB/oct at around 30 Hz)
High Cut (6 or 12 at 15Khz - 18Khz)
You can easily create a SINE Sub Kick with an audio track with Test Generator (insert)
with sine selected and around 40 to 70 hz setting (tune to correct corresponding fundamental note!)
followed by a Gate with Sidechain button activated.
Then use a send from your “attack Kick” track to the Gate sidechain for a great thumping sine!
I love REVelation reverb with Reverse Ambience presets with long tail times and no Early Reflections.
Combine with a sidechained Gate for more flavored effects.
I’ve used it on 3 or 4 projects in completely different ways and not had any issues with it so far… could just be i’ve not hit the right ‘button combo’ to initiate the bug though…
Despite having a selection of distortion plugins, trash 2, saturn, radiator, decimator, qf2 still has its place and gets plenty of use - it’s a cracker!
Steinberg implements their plugins and fx so smartly that it`s a real joy working with them.
I use the instant inbuilt channel EQ 70% of the time,a huge time and resource saver.
Compressors,reverbs + other Cubase tools are used all the time as well.
Nice video!
It’s really nice to know what other people are using … Quadrafuzz 2 seems to be appreciated by everybody!
I almost included the Flanger, Gate and Compressor because I use them quite a lot. I use the compressor when I need clean side chain compression, otherwise I use UAD 1176, LA2A, Fatso or Waves H-Comp for fast compression.
The Gate is simple and effective and the Flanger sounds great!
