Ryan Hatton was tapped to re-mix the unique audio of viral hit horror film Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey for theatrical and DVD launch
London, UK (May 16, 2023)―After supervising sound designer Ryan Hatton was tapped to re-mix the unique audio of viral hit horror film Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey for theatrical and DVD launch, he found that his workflow wanted an improve.
Diving into the challenge, Hatton enlisted the assistance of Nicola Itro, who served as assistant sound designer. The pair initially trialed a wide range of upmixers and LUFS meters, which they quickly realized weren’t offering the outcomes they hoped to attain.
“I used to be having a variety of hassle getting correct readings, so I took my combine over to Justin Fraser’s studio and we seen the loudness studying in his studio was barely totally different than in mine,” Hatton explains. “We finally decided that the plug-ins I used to be utilizing weren’t as correct as we would have liked them to be. The director [writer and producer Rhys Frake-Waterfield] actually wished us to push the dynamics as loud as they may go, so we needed to be very cautious.”
On Fraser’s advice, Hatton finally turned to the Nugen Audio VisLM loudness metering plug-in to boost his workflow all through this course of. “We needed to set a limiter to minus two, however the loudness was essentially the most essential half, so we wished to guarantee that the readings had been correct. After I trialed Nugen’s VisLM at Justin’s studio, that’s what I finally used to do the ultimate combine and ship the challenge.”
As the movie was set for a theatrical launch, along with mixing and modifying audio for the movie, Hatton was additionally tasked with turning the unique stereo music combine right into a 5.1 encompass combine. Having beforehand been disillusioned by different upmixers, Hatton additionally determined to attempt Nugen’s Halo Upmix, which he says is a typical amongst his friends.
“Everyone I do know within the trade makes use of Halo Upmix, they usually’re very keen about that,” he says. “Halo Upmix made the 5.1 combine sound extraordinarily correct as regards to comparability to the unique stereo combine. It did simply what it wanted to do. It sounded far more pure and trustworthy to the unique stereo file, which was crucial as a result of the composer, Andrew Scott Bell, initially had knowledgeable mixer combine it―I wanted to ensure the encompass model sounded precisely the identical as the unique.”
Hatton additionally discovered the dB meter studying to be extraordinarily handy. “I are inclined to have my plug-in home windows on a separate display screen, so I don’t all the time have my meters up,” he explains. “One factor I seen on Halo Upmix is that you may even have the meters in view, which doesn’t appear to be the case on most different upmixers that I’ve tried, and that’s an enormous bonus.”
New York, NY (May 12, 2023)—The MIYA plug-in (Mac/PC) is a singular distortion processor that detects zero crosses in waveforms and replaces what’s between them with user-controlled additive synthesis. It creates distortion within the literal sense of adjusting the composition of a waveform.
MIYA shouldn’t be the kind of distortion processor that emulates tubes, tape or transistors being overdriven. Instead, it will probably create glitchy or textural distortion or fully resynthesize a sign. It will in all probability be most helpful for EDM, hip-hop and different digital genres.
The GUI options a big Graphic Visualizer that shade codes the waveforms in a approach that means that you can see the consequences of the processing. A gray line represents the unique sign; orange vertical strains present the zero crosses, the blue line depicts the synthesized sign, and the inexperienced reveals the sign on the output.
The plug-in consists of three sections of adjustable parameters. The Analyzer part has two controls. Skip tells the processor to skip as much as 5 zero crosses, thus altering the size of the wavelets. Longer wavelets equal decrease tones. The Minimum Length knob discards zero crossings utilizing a time reference in milliseconds. It’s helpful for dialing in quite a lot of resonances.
To the correct of the Analyzer is the Synthesizer and Filter part. Here, you need to use sliders so as to add first by fifth-order harmonics. A knob known as Duty Cycle gives one other option to management wavelet size. The Gate knob blocks any sign beneath its threshold, making it attainable to course of solely louder sounds, reminiscent of drum hits.
The Threshold and Boost parameters present extra management. They inform MIYA to amplify any sign that exceeds the Threshold setting by the Boost quantity. You can additional sculpt the sound with the Low-Pass and High-Pass filters.
One of MIYA’s most impactful controls is the Dry/Wet knob, which lets you mix the unique and synthesized indicators on the output, whose degree it’s also possible to regulate.

Soundtoys TremendousPlate
In addition, Soundtoys added loads of further options, corresponding to infinite decay time, an EQ part, stereo width and stability knobs, modulation controls and a pre-delay knob. The firm additionally touts the Auto Decay part, which incorporates Threshold, Target and Recovery controls. According to Soundtoys, it’s “a singular decay ducking choice that adjusts decay time to keep away from overlap or masking.”
In the press launch for TremendousPlate, Soundtoys CEO and lead designer Ken Bogdanowicz says, “We at all times attempt to take our results past ‘easy emulations,’ and with TremendousPlate, I really feel like we discovered the right stability—switchable modeled preamp types, built-in parametric EQ, and prolonged and dynamic decay time—to make TremendousPlate a flexible go-to reverb impact.”
If you already personal the Soundtoys bundle, you’ve in all probability seen that you would be able to’t open Little Plate contained in the Effect Rack (the plug-in that permits you to combine and match the varied Soundtoys results). TremendousPlate won’t have that restriction. It will be opened as a DAW insert plug-in or within the Effect Rack.

If you personal the Effect Rack solely, somewhat than the whole bundle, you’ll be able to add TremendousPlate for $59.
THE TAKEAWAY: “If you’re unhappy along with your mixes or wish to velocity up your workflow, I like to recommend attempting it out.”
COMPANY: Ayaic • www.ayaicinc.com PRICE: $199 PROS:
• Unique and well-executed plug-in.
• Automatically creates a balanced tough combine.
• Drums and bass are persistently well-balanced with one another and within the combine.
• Ducking, increasing and mute teams.
• Fine Trim fader options helpful “level-plane” shortcuts.
• Create and save presets.
• Tutorial movies obtainable. CONS:
• Each plug-in have to be individually configured earlier than “studying” and mixing your audio.
• The handbook lacks depth.
Music manufacturing software program has turn out to be so subtle that it’s now not novel to have a plug-in that may analyze your monitor or combine and create computerized settings for an EQ, compressor, reverb or mastering limiter. So you won’t be stunned to find Mix Monolith (Mac/PC), a plug-in billed as an “Automatic Mixing System.”
Its developer, Ayaic (pronounced “Ay-yi-yic”), says its goal is to not create a completed combine robotically, however to set the elemental achieve relationships between tracks and guarantee correct achieve staging. The thought is to get you “90 % there,” comparatively rapidly, and assist you to spend extra time on the artistic elements of the combination. Unlike different “sensible” plug-ins, it does all this with out AI.
The Mix Monolith plug-in is available in mono and stereo situations, and you place one on each channel of your combine. Each occasion works independently however communicates (“syncs”) with the others.
If you might have a DAW with post-fader inserts (for instance, Cubase or Nuendo), Ayaic recommends utilizing these as insert factors for the Mix Monolith plug-in. That manner, the plug-ins will regulate the achieve after all of the pre-fader inserts, fader settings and any automation you will have written. It additionally means you should utilize Mix Monolith to wash up an current combine the place you wish to hold every little thing however the achieve relationships.
For DAWs with out post-fader inserts, Ayaic suggests inserting Mix Monolith within the final insert slot on every monitor and setting all the amount faders to 0 dB earlier than beginning. If you might have any quantity automation already in your monitor, you’ll must take away that. You don’t need to reset your panning, as Mix Monolith solely offers with achieve.
Mix Monolith creates the equal of a tough combine with appropriate gain-staging.
LEVEL ASSIGNMENTS
Mix Monolith makes use of Integrated LUFS to measure the typical loudness of every monitor. The plug-in provides in depth presets for various devices, vocal varieties, buses (each sub and grasp) and aux results.
A achieve stage has been assigned for every preset between 22 LUFS and 40 LUFS, relying on the supply kind. Within the preset classes for every supply kind, Ayaic offers choices that function LUFS targets akin to their roles within the association. For instance, on vocals, decisions embody Lead, Background and Doubled Lead, every with a unique achieve setting. For multitrack drums, there are separate presets for every equipment piece, together with overhead and room-mic tracks.
These stage relationships are important to Mix Monolith’s success, as every occasion of the plug-in matches the achieve of its monitor to its preset LUFS goal, placing the combination into relative stability. The quantity settings for every preset are primarily based on what the corporate calls “stage planes,” that are increments of 5 dB (equal to five LUFS).
Ayaic’s Menno Froese explains, “If you simply make strikes of 5 dB and also you don’t fiddle with anything in between, every little thing can be on a level-plane—25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 LUFS—and your mixes can be excellent. It sounds odd, however that’s the best way issues work.”
Indeed, it does sound odd, particularly contemplating that a rise of 6 dB doubles a sound’s stage. After enjoying with Mix Monolith, I’ll say that the level-plane idea appears to work.
OPEN PLUG-IN, HIT PLAY
The Mix Monolith workflow is fairly easy. After instantiating every monitor with the plug-in and setting the suitable preset, you’re prepared to start out what Ayaic calls the “two-step course of.”
First, open one of many plug-ins, press the Learn All Channels button and play the music from begin to end. Each plug-in then measures the Integrated LUFS on its monitor. When the music ends, you hit the Mix All Channels button, and it robotically calculates an “Applied Gain” setting to match the monitor’s output to its LUFS goal.
The Applied Gain discipline on the GUI reveals you ways a lot you’re boosting or slicing on that monitor. You can lock in that worth to make sure the achieve doesn’t change on subsequent studying passes.
The second step is to repeat the educational course of, however this time for any bus (subgroup) channels you might have in your combine. This will solely work appropriately after the person tracks have been “discovered” first. If you wish to use Mix Monolith in your aux results, Froese suggests “studying” these tracks once you add them to the combination, so long as it’s after the preliminary two-step course of.
You also can put an occasion on the final insert slot in your grasp bus, and the plug-in comes with a number of grasp bus presets for setting the general quantity of the combination. It is sensible to study these final.
Each preset class options variations of supply varieties.
UPS AND DOWNS
After finishing the 2 preliminary passes, your music can be roughly balanced, with every instrument or vocal audible and the gain-staging set appropriately.
From a stage standpoint, you’ll doubtless wish to make adjustments to suit your artistic imaginative and prescient. If you want, you possibly can proceed utilizing the Mix Monolith plug-in, which helps you to modify the amount for any monitor utilizing the Fine Trim slider, a regular fader with one-click shortcuts on both aspect for enhancing or slicing a monitor by level-plane increments. (The shortcuts additionally supply a ±3 dB choice.)
At this level within the course of, you possibly can return to utilizing your DAW’s mixer in order for you. For simplicity’s sake, I discovered it best to depart the DAW faders at 0 dB and make any further quantity changes, together with automated ones, from Mix Monolith.
The presets additionally embody assignments to Mute Groups that may be automated. The Mute button on every Mix Monolith GUI will act on all of the tracks that share the identical group project.
The ducking and enlargement options assist you to set off attenuation or boosts primarily based on sidechain indicators from one (or a number of) tracks. You can set every Mix Monolith occasion to ship or obtain from particular channels or monitor teams. You also can set the Threshold and Range that management the ducking or enlargement, and the Attack and Release, of the incoming sidechain sign.
With some presets, ducking will get arrange robotically. For instance, for those who use the electrical bass setting, the bass will robotically get ducked by the kick drum. All of those settings are totally adjustable.
MONOLITHIC MIXING
Primarily utilizing Pro Tools, I attempted Mix Monolith on numerous mixes over a number of weeks. I discovered that when configured and used appropriately, it really works as marketed. Inserting it on each monitor and setting all of the presets makes it considerably time-consuming on the entrance finish.
But even with the additional setup time, Mix Monolith was a time-saver and at all times yielded wonderful achieve staging. I used to be persistently impressed with the stability between sources within the mixes it created. The drums and bass have been at all times at an applicable stage and sat effectively collectively.
The rhythm devices, like guitars and keyboards, have been additionally well-balanced, so long as I picked applicable presets. That’s to not say that I by no means adjusted them afterward—there have been at all times loads of tweaks to make earlier than a mixture was completed—however the tracks at all times sounded balanced after Mix Monolith made its achieve settings, offering a strong begin for the combination.
The sources I most frequently needed to modify afterward have been the lead vocals and lead devices, which is sensible, as their ranges in relation to the opposite devices are extra subjective than for another monitor kind.
Mix Monolith ought to enchantment to each beginner mixers and skilled ones. For the previous, it rapidly ranges a mixture to the purpose that’s doubtless far past what they may obtain with out it. For the latter, it accelerates workflow and offers constant achieve staging.
One gripe I’ve is with the handbook. It’s well-written however might use considerably extra element. Thankfully, there are wonderful tutorial movies on the Ayaic web site, which I availed myself of when studying the plug-in.
I even have blended emotions (no pun meant) in regards to the “computerized” side of Mix Monolith. If I apply it to all my future mixes (which is kind of tempting), will my talents to stage and gain-stage a mixture stagnate or atrophy over time? And will it inhibit novice mixers from studying the fundamentals? To be truthful, I felt related reservations about different “sensible” plug-ins that I now use repeatedly.
Those considerations apart, Mix Monolith is a powerful piece of software program that’s conceptually modern and delivers what it guarantees. If you’re unhappy along with your mixes or wish to velocity up your workflow, I like to recommend attempting it out.

THE TAKEAWAY: “Turn just a few knobs, and increase, your monitor sounds nice.”
COMPANY: Waves • www.waves.com PRICE: $34.99 introductory, $149 record; Also obtainable by Waves Creative Access. PROS:
• Authentic-sounding, adjustable tube emulation.
• Compressor is flexible and sounds nice.
• VU meter might be calibrated. CONS:
• Limited parameter management.
As you’d anticipate from a channel strip plug-in, the Waves Magma Tube Channel Strip supplies EQ, filtering and dynamics processing—however not like most, it additionally affords a formidable modeled tube-drive circuit for dialing in authentic-sounding saturation.
The plug-in is split into 4 sections. The Input part consists of the Drive knob, which controls the enter degree and the tube-style saturation. The more durable you hit it, the extra saturation you get. Waves used the identical modeling know-how in its standalone BB Tubes saturation plug-in, which sounds terrific. Depending on the place you set the knob, it may give you the whole lot from slight breakup to important overdrive.
The Input part additionally encompasses a polarity reverse change and a three-position highpass filter with settings for Off, 60 Hz and 110 Hz. I used to be shocked on the lack of frequency choices. I usually set a highpass filter effectively above 110 Hz.
The EQ part supplies three bands. The excessive and low bands have a single knob every to manage shelf filters at fastened frequencies. The excessive is about at 2.5 Hz; the low isn’t specified however appears to be round 110 Hz. Waves did a wonderful job of selecting the middle frequencies to maximise the utility of the fastened bands within the EQ, however I discovered myself wishing for extra management.
The most adjustable band is the midrange, which makes use of a bell filter and has a frequency knob along with the increase/reduce change. You can set the middle frequency wherever from 100 Hz to five okHz. The filter will get wider when boosting.
The Expander/Gate and the Compressor every provide one-knob management with a mode change. On the previous—whose knob impacts how a lot the gate opens and closes—I used it on a kick drum monitor and rapidly discovered settings that lowered bleed with out clamping down on transients. I had much less luck on a loud guitar monitor and wished I had assault and launch knobs.
The Compressor sounds wonderful. Its knob governs each threshold and make-up achieve. Its regular mode offers you comparatively clear compression. Switch into Smash mode, and also you get a better ratio and quicker assault and launch instances. Turn it up excessive, and you’ll crush the sounds in a cool method. I notably favored the way it sounded on drums.
The remaining part is the Output, which options a big quantity fader and a VU meter, which you’ll be able to calibrate to your DAW utilizing a “screwhead” knob.
To check the plug-in, I inserted it on each channel of a few mixes I used to be engaged on, and it carried out impressively. The means so as to add tube saturation—whether or not mild or heavy—on any monitor got here in useful. Waves designed the Magma Tube Channel Strip to be straightforward to make use of, and it’s. For less-experienced mixers, that simplicity shall be notably interesting. Turn just a few knobs, and increase, your monitor sounds nice. More adjustability would make it even higher, however it’s excellent- sounding as is, and I plan to make use of it lots.
