I can't find an all-pass filter plug-in in Logic, or an obvious freeware — can you recommend anything?
How do you differentiate between the following terms: saturation, harmonics, distortion, overdrive? Are all of these just similar terms with different names?
I'm having real difficulty routing a source track to FabFilter's side-chain when using Reaper. Has anyone done this before?
How many different reverb sends do you set up? Is it OK (or even preferable) to send one track to more than one reverb effect?
I recently watched a YouTube video in which it was recommended that you match the input and output level of every plug-in in a mix session...

I’ve not found a way of bypassing an external effect (Boss DD-500) by using automation in Cubase 8.5 Pro. I didn’t want the...
I’d like to start using the very helpful Schwa Schope multi-analysis plug-in within Cubase Pro 9. If I would like to assess the frequency spectrum of, for example, the kick and bass guitar tracks, how should I set up the routing?
I thought I had a handle on this, but seem to have a hard time understanding the difference between a compressor’s ‘Hold’ and its ‘Release’. Can you help explain?
In Ableton Live, I used to use a plug-in to split a channel so that I could do multiband processing. I’m now using Cubase Pro 8.5 and it doesn’t seem to work...
How can you tell that a particular recorded vocal or bass track includes resonances? I’d like to know how to identify where the resonances are visually.
I do a lot of dance music, and have been referencing my mixes against commercial releases. How can I get the fat synth sounds of my references without going nuts with EQ?

Can you explain what is meant by ‘panning law’ in the context of a DAW’s setup?
My outboard equalisers have no level or peak indicator, what would be the correct way to output the signal from my DAW (Logic) via an RME Fireface 800 audio interface?
I’ve been trying to get my reverb settings worked out, but when I settle on what I think sounds right two main...
My band tracked some songs at a local studio using their Pro Tools rig and I want to mix the tracks at home in Reaper.
The effects of recording to tape seem to be very subtle, with the so-called 'warmth' appearing to be largely due to the soft-saturation characteristics of the tape itself and other non-linear components in the signal chain.
I'm looking for any VST freeware that can really do for amp distortion what convolution reverbs can do for sound reflection...
Does Apple’s controversial product strategy for the new Final Cut Pro X give any hints as to their plans for the next major Logic version?
