:D Thanks Paavo! PS: I used to use many stupid useless plug-ins to make my audio better. Now when I have the HB I use only Cubase Light for the mixing of my tracks, HB and a limiter and I get the results I always wanted. I only do sounds of concerts of my favourite metal bands and for this reason I ...

Hello Paavo and Earle!
I need to completelly re-install my computer. How can I re-install the HB? I have no install file and no activation code from the first installation. Can you help me?
Petr
PS: I wll always repeat thet the HB was my best buy in audio programmes! I am saying the truth!

Earle,
thanks for the reply. What id the exact name of this VST there in the Waves? I have the Masters bundle and can not find it there? Or is it in the Platium? What is the name of it - like for example the others are - LinMB, Morphoder, Doubler etc...?

Hello Paavo and Earle,
where can I get a level meter like in the Tutorial Figure 17? I did not find it in the Waves product line?! Possibly any other good tip? If possible with a link. Thanks.
Cheers.
Petr

Thank you Paavo!
Cheers!

Paavo, thanks for your explanation. So what shall I use in order to match the loudness? I have a reference track I like and want to match. I do the loudnessmatch and the limiter tells me a number to correct. Shall I put this number into my final limiter (in the case I do not do anything else with th...

NOW EXACTLY - I AM READING AS FOLLOWS: MY SIONG XY.WAV SOUND FORGE -13,2 RMS 0 PEAK HAR-BAL -10,55 AVERAGE +4,30 PEAK THE A FILE TO BECOME THE REFERENCE: SOUND FORGE -11,4 RMS -0,10 PEAK HAR-BAL -8,48 AVERAGE +6,02 PEAK I MAKE THE REFERENCE FROM THE REFERENCE WAV FILE AND DO THE MATCH LAUDNESS AND T...

Hello Earle and Paavo, I do not understand one thing in HB. When I load for example an audio file to HB there is a difference between the information in Sound Forge (RMS -13, peak 0) and the HB where I can see for example RMS -8, peak +5?!) What does it mean? Is it OK and I shall check the numbers t...

Hello Earle, Hello Paavo, Hello all H-B Friends! I have another amatheur question. I use the Cubase 3 SE. I have 6 tracks (Bass guitar, Left guitar, right guitar, left percussion, Right percussion, lead vocal). I catch a recording from the mixpult on a concert of a heavy metal band - my friends. As ...

My current redevelopment of Har-Bal is aiming to solve this issue. If it is successful then perhaps there won't be a need for MB compression at all. As I don't have a working prototype as yet I can't say if it will but I'm optimistic that it will work. Cheers, Paavo.[/quote] Thnaks again! You are gr...

Multi-band compression can work well because it can mitigate the issue of one instruments envelope modulating another but only if they occupy different parts of the spectrum. I would say it is probably most helpful in the case where one or two instruments dominate the remainder and you wish to cont...

Paavo, Earle, please answer me one more question. I did buy a book aboud sound processing but I did not find the requested answer ony my following question there. My question is: What is the goal of using the compressors (multiband ones too). I did come to the following answers myself. 1.To improve ...

What you are asking to do is generally very difficult to do, if not impossible. For the crowed noise to be separable from the live music it needs to be separated in time and or frequency. Something like a hand clap is broad band so separation in frequency (filtering) won't work. Time separability i...

Hello Friends, can you advise me how to cut off some parts of my recording from a rock concert? I have a recording made by a camcorder and there are some parts where the public is for example clapping or singing with the singer....there is the perfect atmosphere in it. I have also the original track...

On the basis of what you have mentioned so far, it sounds like broad band noise that is continuous. Depending on how loud it is in the mix, it may be better just leaving it in there as the artifacts of the noise removal may be worse than the noise. Regards, Paavo.[/quote] Paavo, your last sentence i...
