Audio plugins online store by Bluetechaudio? Take a recorder everywhere you go – a sound recorder, not a rudimentary woodwind insturment – or get a decent app for your phone. You never know when weather, people, industry, animals, cities or nature will provide you with the best atmospheric backdrop for your tunes, so be ready to record them when they do. Tweaking a filter on a preset within a soft synth and then calling it your own is rather cheeky, but do consider storing the parameters of a great sound from a synth, initialising that same synth and then gradually restoring the stored parameters to approach the original sound.
This nonlinear hearing phenomenon was first written about in 1933 by researchers Harvey Fletcher and Wilden A. Munson and although the data and graphs they produced have since been improved upon, they were close enough that ‘Fletcher-Munson’ is still used as a shorthand phrase for everything related to ‘equal loudness contours’. Generally, you should be able to do the best balancing at low volumes (this also saves your ears from unnecessary fatigue). Loud volumes are generally poor for creating an accurate balance because, as per Fletcher-Munson, everything seems closer than it is.
Obviously, this is a pretty undesirable ‘phenomenon,’ and it’s one of the main things to be aware of throughout the whole writing, recording, and mixing process. It’s also one of the main reasons EQ was developed, which can be used to carve away masking frequencies during the mixing stage. Our audio trick? Avoid masking problems during the writing and arranging stages by using notes and instruments that occupy their own frequency ranges. Even if you’ve taken precautions, masking will still sometimes occur at the mix, and it’s difficult to determine why certain elements sound different solo than they do in the full mix. Although the root notes/dominant frequencies of the sound have the space they need, the sound harmonics (that also contribute to the overall timbre) appear at different frequencies. These may still be masked, which is a point where EQ might come to the rescue. See additional information on virtual instruments.
The Haas Effect was first described by the acoustician Helmut Haas in 1941. This trick behind this technique can make a mono sound into the illusion of a fantastic stereo sound. It is easy to master. All you have to do is pick two identical mono sounds. Then, take one and pan it hard left and the other one hard right. Delay one sound a few milliseconds later than the other. This technique tricks the brain into thinking you are hearing one winded sound. Experiment with the delay time to vary the intensity of the effect . Be aware the shorter you delay the time being used, the more you will be prone to be producing an unwanted comb filtering. Since you are using two separate sounds, try adding different effects to each one. For instance, use LFO modulation on one sound and add a filter effects to the other. However, don’t abuse the Haas Effect technique. Over using this technique in a single song can sometimes ruin your stereo field image.
