Why is 4 plugin companies with the same hard clipping code even important?<\/h2>\n<p>This video is important NOT because the companies use the same hard clipping algorithm, BUT because it reminds us all that we are susceptible to BIAS and MARKETING HYPE. Don&#8217;t forget, we are bound by the same laws of physics, so don&#8217;t expect a plugin to be miraculous. Be sure to TEST and EXPERIMENT and decide for yourself if the companies claims are valid! And testing and experimentation need to be done correctly to minimize our biases!<\/p>\n<p>Another IMPORTANT part of the video is <strong>showing you how to test plugins yourself using free tools<\/strong>. This helps you OBJECTIVELY understand what is happening and will allow you to make better comparisons. Not many people know how to do these kinds of tests, but they are really easy and<\/p>\n<p>Some CRITICISM I received from the video was that I looked at 1 setting of all these plugins (hard clipping) but there are other settings that I didn&#8217;t talk about.<\/p>\n<p>This is true &#8211; I didn&#8217;t get into the soft clipping settings that some of these plugins offer. This was for a few reasons:<\/p>\n<p>1. Submission audio claimed that their plugin could sound BETTER than clipping $10,000 mastering converters. This type of clipping is a HARD CLIPPING PROCESS, so I set up the experiment this way to test their hypothesis.<\/p>\n<p>2. It&#8217;s extremely difficult to show different plugin settings between two companies are the same because of how the knobs and sliders are PARAMETERIZED and their RESOLUTION. So, &#8220;1 notch&#8221; on Plugin A may NEVER equal &#8220;1 notch&#8221; on Plugin B. This means that even if the plugins use the exact same algorithm, I may or may not be able to prove that. I could try to adjust the slopes while listening for a perfect null, but that wasn&#8217;t the point of the video.<\/p>\n<p>3. I tried many other hard clipping plugins, and those weren&#8217;t exactly the same as these 4 companies. Maybe those other companies &#8220;messed something up&#8221; or maybe its part of their &#8220;magic&#8221;. Regardless, this suggests that MORE can be done to a hard clipping plugin to make it UNIQUE.<\/p>\n<p>There has already been a movement online from this video with lots of people posting spectrograms of their plugins and several people have even discovered software bugs from major companies because of this video!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Video Tutorial Section&#8221; module_id=&#8221;video&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.8&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.1&#8243; header_2_font_size=&#8221;28px&#8221; border_color_bottom=&#8221;#000000&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>TIMESTAMPS<\/h3>\n<p>0:00 Intro<br \/>3:02 Sine Sweep Tests<br \/>5:23 Artifacts<br \/>5:50 Proving The Same Hard Clipping Algorithm<br \/>8:15 So What Does This Mean For Us?<br \/>8:25 Is It The Same For A Song?<br \/>9:10 Clipper Settings For Test<br \/>10:07 Clipper Shootout With Song<br \/>11:00 Song Null Test<br \/>12:02 Aliasing and Fixing It<br \/>13:37 Oversampling<br \/>14:03 Plugin Differences With Oversampling<br \/>16:05 Nature of Null Tests<br \/>16:50 How Do We Know Which Plugin Is The BEST?<br \/>18:02 Analyzing Artifacts With Sonic Visualizer<br \/>18:52 How To Read A Spectrogram<br \/>20:23 Spectrograms of Clipping Tests<br \/>24:00 Recap of Important Concepts<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.8&#8243; header_2_font_size=&#8221;28px&#8221; border_width_bottom=&#8221;2px&#8221; border_color_bottom=&#8221;#000000&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Watch The Video<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Video Title&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.1&#8243; quote_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;22px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||||false|false&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; header_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_font_size_phone=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;18px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_3_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_3_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; header_3_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|3px|3px|3px|3px&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">See the PROOF!
