Good choice! These Heritage editions are fantastic, and really IMO bring the best value to Apollo and the whole point of their emulations. If you're new to the Apollo Series, check out my new Heritage Classics Pack at my website, I'll be uploading a video explaining it in detail shortly, but I just released them the other day. It's a collection of awesome sounds and starting point signal chains for tracking with the Apollo. A lot of new Apollo users also really appreciate my Console Deep Dive video! Thanks for watching Jeff!

Right on mate! It always helps to network in your local area too. There are studios and people all over that have gone setups. A lot of people want to do it professionally but never had taken the time and effort to build it into a business. Why is that important? Well it might be a way of working with someone who could help you track or help you mix while you get up to speed. Networking is important! Keep up the hard work and it will pay off mate!

HHi Steve - awesome video - really love the clarity with which you have explained things - what do you think of the Capitol Chambers as a Reverb? should I normally put the "Effects" such as reverb and delay in the DAW as opposed to the console? I really love your channel and have also purchased your console classics sessions pack to get the presets for vocals.

I'm working on building a VO chain for Audiobooks, so not all of this applies, but much of it does. I'm looking forward to playing with the DEPTH feature of the Plate plug-in to see what that will do for spoken word. Maybe I'll even do some singing (I'm a tenor) to see the difference in how these effects process my voice. Thanks very much for this video!

@ModernCult
@ModernCult 3 года назад
What are your go-to settings on the Manley? I feel like there’s so much EQ running around in there that if I use it as a vocal chain instead of adding it after my vocals seem a little flat. I’m also not super knowledgeable on it but yeah that’s my personal experience.
@TheSteveKinney
@TheSteveKinney 3 года назад
@@ModernCult I believe the Manley will be my next purchase - I don’t have it or have much experience with it - but everyone. And I do mean everyone talks about it. It’s all the rage. Personally - what I like to do is use pre amp EQ’s to season and flavor the signal. And then if I need to - I can fine tooth come and detail later with something like a fab filter or very precise eq.

Will - that’s awesome! Glad you dug the sound. It helps that Kat has an awesome and unique voice. I’ll likely be doing more live mix Mondays after this week. I’d be happy to go over it. But it’s more of the same from me. From memory : Wa-47 > UA-610-b > corrective eq > 1176 rev a > la-2 > de-ess Then I buss the effects. Likely lexicon 224 & then a digital delay. Doubled the chorus parts and used studio d on the double to give depth and dimension. Automated the sends on the delays to create an effect. As far as specific settings - that’s something I could go over on a livestream. 😎 cheers mate!

So glad so see you are down with the API Vision strip - at least for this. It's my strip of choice. Honestly I'm just not there with any SSL strip I've ever tried and for the life of me the Neve RS plugin just does not cut it, including the UI. Guess I just don't get it. Also the Voxbox is as clean and tidy as anything you good run a decent mic into. I would love to have Manley hardware gear. Finally, the Plugin-Alliance Lindell 50, which is suppose to be a (I think) earlier API strip is not even close to the UAD API Vision strip. All of this of course is IMHO. Thanks for the video!
@TheSteveKinney
@TheSteveKinney 3 года назад
Dude, right on! Thanks so much for commenting. I generally agree with you in every way lol The RS is cool, generally I find it's magic is with crushing drums through it, or if you run it on literally almost every track to simulate making it a console. I know a lot of people swear by using UAD plugs like this. Although - I will say the SSL is damn cool with bass and Electric guitars, especially electric guitars when you get it to where the peaks of the track start to redline the output fader, or input stage works too... (I know this will get scoffed by most) Listen to Nickelback's Dark horse album. Sonic masterpiece by Mutt Lange. If you listen with your headphones on that you're used to .. you can hear the tone of the electric guitars start to crush the console, and sounds juuuust like the SSL Plug, obviously a real one here ha ha.. the song next go round is probably the easiest to hear this on since there are so many spots where the e guitar peaks out on it's own. fantastic sound. From everything I've found with the Lindell stuff - I'd agree. From so many angles, the UAD stuff just really seems to be the most authentic sounding for sure. Great thoughts, cheers!

@@ryancohenmusic thanks mate! Yeah - the neve 88rs is the neve channel strip that is closest to the api, in terms of feature set. The 1073 sound, however, can really only be found in that plugin. The reason there is no 1073 channel strip similar to api is because, the plugins are all based around real hardware and the 1073 wasn’t designed like the api vision console, which is a much newer design. The 88rs is a lot more similar for the era.

Hey there! Thanks so much for the feedback on the video. Some of the videos I make are more practical, with audio examples, and others are strictly informative. So I'm glad you dug it. That said - during the making of this video - I was on my x8 rack unit. I had a session going on in the background. So the DSP load is a little skewed here, just FYI.. If you're curious what plugins take up what percentage of DSP, PGM, etc... go to UADForum.com and they have an excel spreadsheet. Simple way to think of it - the Solo's are great for single signal chains and tracking, and committing your audio signals. The Dou's are great for smaller sessions and mixes. The Rack's are great for large sessions. The trick is knowing how and when to commit. I have no problems with DSP on my solo all the way up to my rack unit. Cheers mate!

Hey Steve, thanks for all the content.. I just recently purchased the Apollo solo and love it. Been messing around with all the plugins. I have my eye on the Digital Slate M1 microphone and my question is.. how could I use both the mic emulations and UAD plug-ins together? Probably not good to run the apollo mic pre’s and compression before the emulators? I guess I could just put the UAD plug-ins on the insert strip and print it then get rid of them for DSP.. let me know, thanks
@TheSteveKinney
@TheSteveKinney Год назад
The emulator mics throw a massive wrench into the chain tbh. But in reality - if that’s the way you plan on running everything - you basically will have a post production only workflow. And all of “UAD console” will just be in “UAD Mon” mode for monitoring in real-time. I wouldn’t use unison pres before running into the slate plugin in post. And as anything proprietary - the slate mic will sound it’s best with the slate pre. Nature of the beast! Hope this helps and makes sense. Cheers mate!

@@bigbizzle2734 I mean. I think a lot of it should be put into perspective - I did a big a/b comparison on unison plugs. And turns out, that while it does do a little something something, it’s not enough to completely write off the modeling tech mics but it certainly makes those mics kind of a pain in the ass to work with because you kind of HAVE to do everything in post. And the biggest point of the Apollo is the workflow of being able to commit mic pre emulations and other plugins on the way in, working just like you would with real hardware. So. Ya. Kind of a tricky spot. I have used the tlm’s. Great stuff. I like what telefunken is doing at the moment too. The new “alchemy” series is on my collection list. And the warm audio stuff is great too. A lot of great mics in that range. And if you mic live acoustic guitars or amps, or other sources, don’t be afraid to pick up used random mics. You’d be surprised how much better mixes can sound when you don’t use the same mic on all sources! Cheers mate!

Hi there. Thank's for your advices :) I recently bought a Manley Black Cardioid as mic. Witch vocal chain could be the best for this mic ? Thank's.
@TheSteveKinney
@TheSteveKinney 3 года назад
Answer: yes. A signal chain. 😭 Great mic and choice! My true answer - depends on the voice. Each mic pre interacts with your mic differently and as a result - you could have an awesome sound with one pre and then someone else jumps on it and you don’t like it as much. So give them a shot and try them out. For compression - you’d wanna generally have an idea of how you sing - I like the distressors as a Swiss Army knife. 1176’s and la2a is always a go to. Those all generally do the job but Sometimes you have a creative thing you’re going for. Eq - generally just kinda high pass and then season to taste. If I do anything it’s usually adding mid range. Delays and reverbs are gonna be choices. My go to reverb is usually a lexicon 224 or the galaxy tape echo and engaging the spring verb.

Experiment to get to where you are happy with what you hear. Now as far as my presets, I have a free one based off the API, you could start there and put the API in demo mode to see what you think if you don't have that plugin of course. Outside of that, console classics pack is based off the included plugins with all apollos and has a lot of "starting point" presets that kind of give a general idea of what you'd wanna do to a chain.

You’re looking at. Mic pre (hi passing at the pre) > and sort of resonance eq’ing > deess > compress > de-Ess again (if needed) > compress again if needed.. pretty common > tonal eq or final de-ess if needed Sounds like a lot ..

@@dek10157 So ideally - the way I'd approach it is that the master output of the 710 is pretty much Dime'd at 10... this ensures that whatever gain you apply through the 710 - the Apollo twin is seing it at the same level. Now, this might make the signal quite hot going into the twin, so I'd say pull back to maybe like 8 or 9 initially,... you shouldn't have to really use any of the gain on the twin in this case, so I'd pull that down. More than likely, you'd only need it to be at around .5 or 1. just to see a signal in general. You may even find that you need to engage a pad. Since you're using an external pre, and a nice one, you don't need to really gain at all on the twin. Now - could also be a bad cable. Try swapping the cables out with others. If you don't have any other cables - then connect the mic directly to the interface, and then swap each cable out with this configuration. My bet is that at least one of them are gonna be noisy. If not that - try connecting the 710 with a TRS cable and see if the problem persists. It's all a process of elimination. Hope this helps. -Steve

@@dek10157 Did you figure it out? I have a focusrite and the 710. I contacted both companies and they advised that I use an xlr to trs cable to connect from the 710 to my interface.
