I exported the result, and here's what In Da Club now looks like in VLC's spectrogram: So here's my threshold curve with In Da Club being played through Soniformer (I also made some crude adjustments to the Ratio and Release curves as well, which are not shown here):ģ. I wasn't going for precision, I just wanted to get a rough overall profile, and used some pretty extreme settings. Mind you, I spent about 15 seconds doing this. I quickly applied a very rough compression curve that sort of approximates what I see in Billie's songs. It's basically a 32-band compressor, so you can get very precise with compression behavior across the frequency spectrum. I've since moved on to other tools, but I still occasionally rely on Soniformer. About 10 years ago, Soniformer was the backbone of my mastering chain. Next, I applied a great little plugin called Soniformer by Voxengo to the 50 Cent track. Here's a snapshot of its spectral profile in my VLC media player - as you can see, it's typical of most pop songs:Ģ. I took a popular hip-hop song by 50 Cent from a few years back called In Da Club. sheesh), I thought I'd try a very crude little experiment to see if I could get results that are somewhat close to the spectral profiles in Billie Eilish's songs. After thinking about this for a while, and reading all the interesting posts above (about the mix, not the marketing.
