The Mastering Show #55 - How Bright Is Too Bright?
Published 7 years, 7 months ago
Description
Everyone wants that glorious, sweet, silky-smooth top end in their masters - but how do you get it ? How do you stop things sounding harsh, tinny and brittle ? And even if the high frequencies do sound gorgeous, how hard should you push them ? In this show we’re talking about treble, and our topics include:
* What is “Newton’s 3rd law” of EQ ?
* How do room acoustics affect how you hear high frequencies ?
* How can you “calibrate” your ears so you’re aiming for the right amount of top ?
* How do dynamics interact with high frequencies, and why does it matter ?
* What’s a “spiderman” plugin ?
* Which EQ plugin or hardware unit should you use for the best results ?
