Mixing low level details with Melodyne

Sometimes, your audio tracks sound exciting and full of energy when you listen to them on their own. But when it comes to mixing, they may interfere with the other tracks. When this happens, the key to transparency often lies in the low-level details of the tracks, as Rich demonstrates in today's video. First, he adds excitement to drums with full compression and distortion using tools other than Melodyne. Then, he uses the Fade Tool of Melodyne assistant to control how much space the drums are leaving for the bass in the mix. From 6:05 onwards, Rich uses several tools of the Sound Editor, an exclusive feature of Melodyne studio. This allows for aggression, punch and even more excitement on the one hand – and mix-friendly transparency on the other, with enough room for layering additional tracks. Rich's approach in today's example is definitely worth trying with your own loops and recordings! 0:00 Intro: Threshold based tools 1:00 Today's audio example 1:24 Compression & distortion 2:03 Adding fades to each single sound in the drum-loop 4:57 More impact on the bass 5:57 Controlling dynamics in Melodyne studio 7:40 Hitting harder with ADSR shaping 8:52 Original vs result #1 9:06 Less aggression, still full punch 9:53 Original vs result #2 For more on Melodyne: https://www.celemony.com Why not try Melodyne 30 days for free, without any limitations? https://www.celemony.com/en/trial Buy Melodyne: https://shop.celemony.com Follow us on Social Media:   / celemony_   https://www.threads.net/celemony_   / celemony   https://x.com/celemony #melodyne #celemony #tutorial #mixing
