Larry begins by concentrating on the kick and snare, making use of multi-band dynamics and imaging on the kick. You’ll also be introduced to a free correlation meter to help you visualize phase problems between the left and right channels. Discover tools for creating mono-compatible bass, such as unison modes, oscillator phase considerations, and artificial width generation.
Next, learn how to manage the stereo width of shakers, creating a natural Haas effect width program that will work in mono as well. Then learn how to exploit ProQ-3’s ability to split and right while using a high pass filter to create phase discrepancies between the left and right channels of stereo claps.
Some of the other topics covered include stereo synth brass (using a combination of chorus and mid-side EQ), guitars (using Waves CLA Guitars), electric piano (sound designing a stereo patch), mono-focused EQ and compression, and more!
