Learn How You Can Mix Live Multitrack Drums Fast Using Waves Plug-ins In Pro Tools - Part 1

In this free four-part video tutorial series, brought to you with the support of Waves, we show you how to mix live multitrack drums using a selection of very powerful plug-ins from Waves.

The drum tracks in this session are:

  • Stereo Overheads
  • Mono Room
  • Kick (in)
  • Snare (top)
  • Tom Rack 1
  • Tom Rack 2
  • Floor Tom

In this first episode we show you how to quickly gate and remove rumble from the tom tracks using Waves C1 and how to remove unflattering resonances from snare tracks using subtractive "corrective" EQ. The kick drum in this example sounds a bit flabby, we show you how to focus the tone of a kick using Waves PuigTech EQP-1A, a passive EQ that can boost and attenuate the same frequency.
