Great, thanks!!!
Sorry for late reply
You probably made the good choice with the annual plan .Thatās what Iām using too, the annual subscription for āThe Slate Everything Bundleā, the only downside is that youāll never own the plugins in the end, itās not like a rent to own plan, but you can pause your subscription when ever you want and when comparing the individual plugins pricing and the āEverything Bundleā offer + the fact that youāll have access to the new releases, itās really a fair deal I do think.
BTW they will be adding the āLiquid Sonics Lustrous Platesā reverb plugin to the bundle soon
Glad to hear that the tuts where helpful for you, James Dymond & Nate AKA āProtocultureā are both very talented producers and thereās always a lot to learn from their courses here on Sonic Academy. For the specificity of the Slate āEverything Bundleā Nate did a very good work uncovering the use of the bundle for mixing & mastering, really should help if starting with the SD plugins
Cheers & happy mixing with your new SD plugins
Hello and thanks for the replay.
Thanks for telling me that you will never own them buy having this plan.
But in the future i will probably buy some of them when i get more money. Yes iāve seen that reverb plugin. We will probably get a mail when that happends.
Yes iāve learned ALOT! I MEAN ALOT! Thanks to this course my mix sounds EPIC in sound quallity. But Iām very new, i started to produce and taking this job seriouse last year JAN / FEB. And i see this Tutorial 16 where he have all these envelope automations and all that. I dident get to see why and how he did this.
Is there any tutorials about filtering like that and stuff like that?
Exept for that its all good.
Yes Nate did a very good job with that.
Cheers and have a good day to all of you in SonicAcadmey

Canāt recall of a specific course just dealing with filtering, I donāt think thereās one. In fact filtering will be used in many tutorials since itās definitely something you will need to use for both mixing & arrangement purposes.
In this case what James did in video16 is more on the 2nd approach, itās about arrangement : using those High Pass & Low Pass Filters and writing automation for them allows him to bring elements IN & OUT in the Mix to ābuildā a progression and create tension & release for the listener. Just filtering out the Low end frequencies of certain elements, combined with volume level automation allows you to create that kind of progression. Think about a DJ performing a live set when he will filter out all the low end and just let the highs coming through before getting to a main drop with filtering off gain & low end back. Thatās basically the concept here.
In the mixing approach, High Pass & Low Pass filters are used to remove/cut unwanted frequencies in order to give space to each elements of the mix and avoid frequencies dueling/masking. The main difference is that in this case, the filters wonāt be automated but set as permanent and many times, some fine EQuing would be done too to remove harsh frequencies or peak resonances.
Hope that this basic explanation makes sense
So yes, filtering is a great technique that youāll need to experiment with, once youāve mastered the controversial names, because the Hi-Pass filter is cutting off the lower frequencies before the cutting point when the Low Pass Filter is cutting off the Higher Frequencies after the cutting point , itās just a matter of using them with your ears & some visual tools like spectrum analyzers. You will see it used in lotās of tutorials anyway and will get familiar with it very soon if you started to dive seriously into Music Production
Hope that helps !
Cheers !
Thanks
I guess I just have to do it sometimes in order to understand it. Experiance with it.
Great explained thanks again : )
