Spektakulatius - Our Love Is Here To Stay - Lucky
#1
Hi music loving sound engineers,

Here's my mix, more ore less conventional.

Had to clean a lot and removed lead's most loud breaths

Hope you like it , comments are very welcome, thanks

Cheers,
Luc

01-25-2016 Update: replaced original kick track for midi track (using BFD3), original kick track too fuzzy

01-29-2016 Update: tackled the serious "@!$#%$&" Pro Tools / iZotope fckng breathcontrol latency disaster, with some honest single track, single breathcontrol plugin bouncing to a new breathless track. Grrrrrrr: 26796 samples latency on an high end system, wheeeep Sad No one of both parties: iZotope as Pro Tools takes its responsibility, however I suspect iZotope with their Nectar2 breathcontrol are the "evil genius" who are responsible at the end. I'm an old fashioned guy who buys CD's which he likes and off course I buy plugins from an authority on this like iZotope, but I get really really mad, that at the end I realize I apparently bought not to say crap, but I payed for waiting time, waiting time till some of the programming NERDS finally for once and for all will fix this and BEFORE fixing, the programming NERDS shoud realize they are payed by guys like me instead of pointing to DAW brands and not give any solutions. Solve it Nerds, solve it! (Grumble grumble mwoh mwoh humumummm Big Grin)

Hey Luc, There seems to be some timing issues between the singer and rhythm section and the sax and rhythm section. It's like their both lagging behind somehow. Great sounding mix otherwise.

Hi Dave, thanks dudeCool

I was able to isolate the problem: I have used Izotope Nectar 2 Breath Control plugin to remove the excessive breaths inhales of the singer.
Its a resource / CPU consuming plugin, so it has a automatic latency control, but in addition I forgot to check the AAX bullet which makes the latency virtual zero mS. Corrected and reuploaded.

Thanks again and cheers Wink

Replaced the kick with a midi kick, original kick was too fuzzy and to much bleed Big Grin

Please tell me that I'm not going crazy Luc, but it still sounds like the rhythm accompaniment is coming in almost half a beat early. Seems quite noticeable with the guitar strumming. I would like to hear the 2 versions of the tune you have mixed with the different kick drums for comparision.

Dave you are totaly right, I think there is a serious, not consequent and probably intermittent, timing problem between iZotope breathcontrol in combination with Nectar2 after breathcontrol.
I will sort this out asap and let you know as soon as it's solved.

cheers,
Luc

Hi Dave friend,

Please see my new comment on new upload V2, I really am dissapointed in iZotope breathcontrol, it seems they are still not able to fix this exorbitant high level of plugin latency. Dodgy

Hower, I can assure that you definitely are not getting mad hahahahaha, the latency was there and it was there way too much, solved anyhow Big Grin
