And that brings a completely different mindset and approach to audio mixing.įigure 3: Through Spectral Casting, we can essentially cut holes in the guitar just where we need to in order to make the vocals stand out more.įigure 4 shows the vocal track hidden so that you can clearly see the holes in the guitar track.įigure 4: Spectral Casting 'cuts' holes in the guitar track to create more room for the vocal track to breathe. In fact, it's not almost like that Spectral Casting is exactly like that. Instead of turning down the entire guitar track, what if you could turn down just the guitar frequencies that interfere with the vocal frequencies, and thus mostly preserve the integrity of the guitar track while still making the vocal stand out in the mix? As you can see in Figure 3, it's almost like you're cutting a hole in the guitar track just where you need to in order to give the vocal track more room to 'breathe' or be heard.

While you can certainly 'hear' the vocals better, we've turned the guitar down drastically so that it is now very low in the mix.įigure 2: We've made the vocals stand out by pulling the guitar way back out of the mix. This is emulated in Figure 2 by dropping the opacity of the word GUITAR. In the traditional mixing approach, you might attenuate-or 'turn down'-the guitar track in order to hear the vocals better. In the figure, you can plainly see the word GUITAR and while you can also see the word VOCALS, you have to work a little harder to read it.įigure 1: In this visualization of a music mix, the guitar track overpowers the vocal track.

With both tracks at full volume, the Guitar track overpowers the vocal track. Figure 1 represents a guitar track and a vocal track in a music mix. Spectral Casting takes a much more surgical approach to this type of mixing problem. For example, the engineer might lower the volume of the lead guitar in order to allow the vocal to be heard more clearly. In traditional audio mixing, the mixing engineer will often attenuate an entire sound to bring a different sound out in the mix. When you become familiar with these concepts, you'll be able to apply that understanding and work in a completely different way in both mixing and sound design. We'll focus here on the concepts so that you can gain a solid understanding of what these tools do and an appreciation for how different they are than anything you've used before. In this article, we'll take a look at these revolutionary tools in SpectraLayers Pro. Spectral Casting/Spectral Molding presents a completely new paradigm for audio mixing and sound design.
