6. How do I get started with bx_digital V2 in a
typical mastering or recording-session?
your music that you might want to correct / adjust, so why don´t
you just do it?
Start EQ-ing the M- and S-section individually while Solo-ing the
respective section - and don´t forget to switch the Solo-buttons
off from time to time and listen to your complete mix in “full stereo
sound” again. This way you get a feel for how your adjustments on
the individual sections effect the whole stereo mix! After you have
used a few EQ-bands on your mix compare it to your original mix
by using the Bypass switch of the whole unit and/or of individual
EQ bands (a new feature in V2).
Mastering in M/S takes a little time to get used to - it´s just really
different EQ-ing 2 separate mono-sums than EQ-ing conventional
L&R-signals. But, it´s a very musical way of working, and there IS
a reason why some of the top mastering studios in the world have
been working like this for ages with custom-made M/S-boards -
without really telling anybody…
M/S-Mastering might just be the key for your music to sound as
big - yet still open and clear - as productions often referred to as
being „BIG“… :-)
Many people who have used the M/S-modes for the first time
told us that they had the impression of a “3D-like” depth in their
mixes after processing the M- and the S-Signals individually. While
using the M/S-technique for mastering does affect your phases
in the stereo-signal we do not see this as a problem. In M/S
modes altering phases is done intentionally. Of course, though,
the M/S mastering mode works best if you want to correct small
mistakes in your mixes… for adding or cutting away big amount of
general bass or treble signals you might be better off working in
L/R-mode…

TIP: if needed simply use two instances of bx_digital on your
master bus. one in L/R mode, the second in M/S mode.
Once you are used to the basics of M/S you might easily get
