What does overloading mean? In the digital world we have a level ceiling, and once a sound exceeds that volume level it distorts. The most common mistake I see is people overloading either their individual channels, or their master channel. However, there is a good way to do this, and a not-so-good way to do this. Let’s be honest, we all want our productions to be more thumpy, and a big part of that is making the playback level loud and proud. Help end DAW/FL Studio Bias today! Mistake 1: Clipping Your Master Channel

I mix a lot of records that were produced in FL Studio and there’s a few stand out mistakes I think need to be addressed. This leads to a lot of mistakes that are simple to fix, but often go unchecked. DAWs are complex and reading manuals is boring. However, behind many biases are a grain of truth. It’s a great tool in all forms of electronic production, including Music For Film, Experimental Rock, and of course Hip-Hop, EDM and Electronica. Countless smash hit records have been made in FL Studio. This is marked by the belief that only amateurs and people without talent use FL Studio, and is usually accompanied by being a low-key hater of Hip-Hop and EDM. The most common and one of the most damaging forms of DAW Bias is FL Studio Bias.

Notable signs of someone with DAW Bias are: blaming the DAW for the music made in that DAW, making sweeping statements about the capabilities of a DAW (without spending time to actually learn it), and randomly cursing people out on the internet for not using their DAW of choice. Digital Audio Workstation Bias (DAW Bias for short) is real, and it’s a problem.
