  • Vienna Suite setup question

    Hi,

    i did download the demo version of vienna suite yesterday and i've some questions.

    In fact the most of us are using the same sample library [;)] someone could explain how he uses

    the effects.

    Frist eq, then compressor for every track ?

    What are your favourite setups ?

    Thanks in advance.


  • Personally, I load an instance of VE and then use the VS Power pan for each instrument loaded.  In addition to the Power Pan I add reverb, either convolution or Hybrid it just depends on what I'm doing,  I do this for every VE instance I have loaded.  I do not use VI or VE Pro versions.

    After the tracks are bounced I then EQ each track individually.  Sometimes I use the presets, sometimes I use my own set ups.  While mixing, if I find a track or two low in the mix I'll use either the compressor or limiter to put a little kick in them. 

    I find that the Exciter works wonders for choral tracks.

    Once everything is mixed down, I put the analyzer on it to see what freqs need to be addressed.  Then, I put the Master EQ on it, Reverb (converb or hybrid) to give the track an overall ambience which tends to meld everything together.  Then, either the multiband Limiter and/or a multiband compressor (VS does not yet include a multiband Compressor so that plug-in is from my own stash of plug-ins).

    I then analyze the final mix again to see if it needs any fine tunning. 


  • Thanks a lot.
