Groove3 Mixing with Neutron 5 Explained TUTORiAL

Join mixing guru Larry Holcombe for a thorough look at mixing with the tools included in iZotope's Neutron 5 mixing plug-in. In this series, Larry takes you through the process of solving various trouble spots, enhancing sounds, applying processing, and more using the various components of Neutron 5, sharing many tips along the way and helping you achieve pro-sounding mixes quicker than ever before. These videos are designed for new Neutron 5 users.

Larry begins by introducing the series and briefly discusses what all will be covered in the course, so you'll know exactly what to expect. Then it's down to business, starting with a layered kick drum example in which you'll see how to tackle a phase issue with Neutron 5's Phase module. Then Larry shows how to create front/back perspective using stereo bus compression and carve out space for the lead vocal with the Unmask module.

Next up, Larry explores the subjects of transients, demonstrating how to increase a track's punch, followed by the use of gating to clean up headphone bleed on a vocal. You'll then see how to affect stereo width and shape transients in mid/side mode, which helps create separation between different instruments and effects in the mix.

Over the rest of the course, you'll learn about other useful tools and techniques, including EQ (for clearing space and creating front/back perspective), using track assistant to create a vocal channel strip, compression (musical release times, attack times, etc.), saturation and parallel processing (for thickening sounds and rounding off transients), clipping (layering clippers to control dynamics), creating a basic mastering chain, and more!

If you've struggled to achieve pro-sounding mixes (and who hasn't?), Neutron 5 could be your key to success. With this Neutron 5 course, you'll quickly learn how these tools can transform your mixes in no time at all, not to mention plenty of useful tips and concepts along the way that are applicable in countless other musical scenarios.
