music production

In music production software, dBFS (decibels relative to full scale or full code) and dBTP (decibels relative to true peak) are both units of audio measurements used in the digital domain, but the two aren't quite interchangeable. dBTP is essentially a way to gauge extra volume above zero, aka...

Yes, you can use both Image-Line Maximus and Fruity Limiter software audio plug-in at the same time for your audio mastering needs. This is what you would refer to as your mastering chain where the signal goes from IL Fruity Limiter to Maximus or vice-versa. If you like to keep things simple...

A non-technical and simple explanation you need to know about the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit audio plugins is that 64-bit audio plugins provide better performance compared to 32-bit audio plugins. 64-bit plugins can access huge amounts of primary memory, whilst 32-bit audio plugins are...

In music production, an audio compressor is a sound effect (i.e., either an analog hardware unit or a digital audio software plugin) designed to reduce the dynamic range (DR) of the source material or entire mix as a means to either smoothly or aggressively control volume fluctuations...

A brickwall limiter is an audio signal processing effect either found in a physical hardware form or as a digital audio software plug-in extension (i.e., VST, AAX, AU plug-ins, etc) and is for the most part used in audio post-production (or audio mastering) to make music (or the program...

This sound design tutorial shows you how to make a basic electric piano using the digital audio software plug-in Xfer Records Serum inside Image-Line's FL Studio (DAW).
