The #1 GAIN STAGING Mistake

Описание: The #1 GAIN STAGING Mistake

The first step to getting a professional-sounding mix is with proper gain staging.

Getting your levels right can be the difference between balanced tracks that sit perfectly in your mix and tracks that clip, distort, and ruin the song.
So what’s the best way to ensure that all your tracks are properly gain staged?
In today’s video, I’m going to share with you the #1 gain staging mistake I see and how to fix it.

I’ll also walk you through how I set the levels in Cubase and give you tips on how to gain stage after you’ve started adding plug-ins to your channels.
