Knowledge Vs Tools
The knowledge is the power not the plugin. The plugin is just another tool in the box with a GUI and knobs and buttons. It knows nothing. It's up to the person using it to make it do what it does in a way that's pleasing to the ear and results in something that is cohesive with the rest of the tracks in the mix. Think about it this way. A hammer is a tool in the box. All it does is sit there until called upon for a specific task. The master craftsman needs to fasten one piece of wood to another. He chooses to use the hammer and some nails. He then places the nail carefully to ensure proper alignment so that maximum hold will happen between the two boards. Then starts with light taps to get it started and then drives the nail home. Does the hammer do the work? The answer is yes but not without the guidance and perfect aim of the master craftsman swinging it. When he's done, the two boards become one and the task is finished. The moral of this story is that without the knowledge of how the hammer works, the hammer just sits in the box being useless weight. Well I hope I've got my point across. What are your thoughts on this? Hope this helps. 🤠

What do you use for phase correction? Multitracks with issues needed
I did a couple of times run into phase issues in my mixes, and the special offer ($70 instead of $100) mail about MAAT RSPhaseShifter interested me a bit, especially since I also recently saw videos about Neutron 5 and its new Phase module, I wanted to gather info on what alternatives are also there. I currently own FUSER, which has phase rotation option and different modes of phase auto-correction in side-chain. But FUSER is kinda a heavy-weight plugin. I am also 99% sure that I'll upgrade to Everything Bundle of iZotope again in January (did so 2 years ago) with a PayPal payment plan, so I'll own Neutron 5 soon enough. What I'd love is to get my hands on some Multitracks with different kinds of phase issues (not just allignment, Cubase can take care of that just fine, I believe). The way I see it, what can be done with RSPhaseShifter, could also be done with putting either Neutron 5 Phase or maybe also FUSER on different bands of Waves StudioRack, also stuff like mid-side splitting could be done there. As for side-chains in StudioRack, I will have to look on it specifically as well, didn't yet try that. I produce almost exclusively with samples and VSTs, having only really rarely recorded my voice and some SFX with a mono mic before, but I also want to learn to be able to mix and master recorded stuff with different issues and learn what kinds of problems can be fixed with some tinkering and what kinds are "fatal". I already got trial versions of Neutron 5 and RSPhaseShifter installed and only have a week left on Neutron. I tinkered around on a track I lately was working on again ("the possessor") the day before yesterday , as at least one of sub-tracks was problematic, but i think that its problem cannot be fixed by those means (a slight improvement only), I rather need to go back to the pre-bounce production phase. And the phase issues I had in my own projects before were usually of layered kicks and basses kinds, where I see FUSER as the preferred way, having used it a couple of times for it.

@Berlin RedluX I was going to say the same thing. Melda has some really good stuff. And agree automation is killer

Old guy who has been recording his own and or bands music since the late 90s. I am looking to learn how to do this better.
