Here's the mixing video for Bloodline! This one was hard to keep short because of the cool drum sound I got going and also all the synths!

Next cover will feature the same drum tone so you'll hear more about it there too :)

When you are tracking DI’s what db are you hitting? I am trying the clipping technique but my levels are way lower and not getting the same effect.

João Medeiros

I'm hitting just below clipping point Daniel! My highest peak at about -3.0dB. What "effect" do you feel you're not getting?

I am noticing you are pushing the JR inputs into the red. I can't accomplish this while using JSTClip. The input level won't get any higher since it is getting clipped. My DI's are around -3dB going to the guitar bus into JSTClip at 1x max, which won't allow it over 0dB.

I can clip the JST input by cranking the input gain but it still isn't hitting as hard.

Check the little Trim screw on the bottom of JST Clip: it must be at 0 for you to push the amp the way I am doing it

Yes, the trim is at 0. The point of a clipper is to clip the signal at 0dB. It seems yours is outputting higher than 0dB since it is clipping JST. I added a trim plugin after the clipper and was able to push it harder. Really odd! Love the mix.

João Medeiros

Weird, it really should output at 0 but I'm glad getting a trim to boost it was good enough! Thank you so much man, I'm so happy you're trying out some of my tips :)
