MASTERING like a Pro with Free Plugins Only in Ableton Live

Excellent video. I did indeed swap that EQ8 out for an SSL EQ and it made this chain work even better. As a novice to mastering, this is a terrific starting point. Thanks again!

I don't have LUFS option in my Span. How do I enable it?

Thanks for the tips, really helpful!

very good👍👍👍
thank for tuto

Thanks

Is the actual LUFS read out value blocked by the cam footage? I am seeing it going up to around -10 -9... but not seeing actual value number.

now that I know what LUFs are I have a clear way and reference point how to improve my music, thanks, I was a bit lost at the moment

came here for tips on how to master, accidentally learned how 'Freq, Width and Depth' in the saturator work. thanks man

thanks for the awesome video! how do you get both SPAN windows open at the same time?

This is what i always do in FL studio

What is this intro song btw?

I'm mixing/mastering on Mackie HR824's with ableton glue compressor.. following your tips.....kinda bedroom studio but should I take into account the nearfield flat responce or trust what I hear will work elsewhere? I guess I'm asking are my monitors good enough. they sound awesome but on other systems my mixes have mixed results. I'm doing Rap on Trap and Drill styles but messing with Classical influences, also popping out a bit with 5/4 and 7/8.

The muddiness in the low mids is killing me!!! It's such an easy fix too😭

Really helpful! Straight to the point!

Thanks my mix is sounding nice now

Very helpful tutorial, thank you! And sick track for whatever it’s worth 🤘🏻

Hey, good video !! My Span doesn't show the LUFS option in the drop down. Where did you get your version of Span ? Thank you !!

Totally forgot how good span was.

I struggle with mastering so this is a life saver for me and for a lot of bedroom producer also! Thank you so much. This is pure gold!

i got SPAN, but theres no option for LUFS-SL... Help?

Hey nice tutorial. Im confused though, most of the tracks I use as a reference are way too loud, they all clip on the master, these are tracks bought from iTunes for example. Do I need to turn the volume down of the reference tracks? but at the end they will have different dbs if I turn their volume down. cheers

And right now we are going to talk about it which we will see later as it is something important that could do things which we can talk about in another videos, I'm also going to do things and match it then I use this then I use that. 20 minutes

perfect 😎

By far the best mastering tutorial on YT. Love your philosophy on mastering as well. You have a ton of knowledge and properly explained what each step does unlike other tutorials.

Merci pour le tuto :)

Hugely informative, thank you! Took away some side points as e.g. "use anorher Limiter than the stock one", and the Idea with a plain parametric channel eq (vs. EQ8) I took away as well, great stuff, thanks a ton!

This is a message for ableton to add a LUDS meter 😊
Great video.

Thank you so much. Really helpful and practical!

NOOB QUESTION how do i get both Spans up at same time?

Great tutorial <3 What is the track you are mastering btw :)

Very helpful

thank you for these tips !

Thanks for the video ☺️

Great stuff Jules, makes me feel a bit better, as you said this can get quite complex but you explain it very simply here, cheers man :)

Great vid again, thanks.

I really like Ozone Pro and Smart Limit... but, like you said, for like the last 5%. If I have mixed stuff properly, there should not be much of a difference between running these 2 program's AI and what I already have. Often I find myself going and readjusting what the AI did and sometimes even turning off Ozone or Smart Limit a few times before I get it where I want it. Usually don't push it out after a round at it, either though.

Nice

This gives me a bit more confidence that I can create a decent master at my current skill level. Thanks for the tips.

It was super useful , thanks a lot !

Nice video, thank you!

👍👍
