So I just watched all the videos on the Logic compressor. Yours is hands down the best. Almost so good that there's no point in me making a video, but we all use it in different ways is the beauty. So I think I still might.
I've always like the sound of the Logic compressors! I start every song with classic tube EQ and a Vintage VCA! Top down mixing!! Analog Obsession's Compressors fill in the gaps! Thanks for the video!!
There are a lot of instructors that use words to describe an intent which leaves me clueless. So many instructors use the word 'glue' among others and I'm like WTF?! My man Shane breaks down what he means by 'glue' beautifully! The quality of the sound and the music is incredible with theses videos. Being the Logic Pro geek I am, I really needed this video!! Awesome!! I'm a fan THANK YOU
I've had logic for two years now and I'm finally learning lmao 🤣 , this video helped out so much understanding and identifying the emulations the compressors come from
I recently switched to Logic for mixing and videos this in-depth make the transition a lot easier. I'm really impressed with the stock plug-ins so far, and the compressors might be the best of the lot
If anyone's interested, "circuit type" is what the Logic documentation calls what the video producer is calling compressor "modes." I'm not pestering - "mode" is a valid way to describe the user interface choices set up as they are. I just wondered what Apple was calling them, and I found out, again, "circuit type."
Compressor circuit type seemed like a worse video thumbnail and title. I actually thought about saying that, BUT seeing as how there aren’t any actual circuits in the plugins, I went with mode.
@@EchoSoundWorks Yeah, "modes" is catchier and easier to grasp. I really like how you're doing the Sine wave test on each compressor to show the coloring. Another trick I can refer to.. Sweet!
I prefer Logic’s compressors over most 3rd party plugins I have. I’ve tried a bunch of waves compressors and they aren’t as good for sidechaining I noticed
You've nailed these comparisons! Great video :) It's definitely encouraged me to use some of these stock compressors when I'm scratching an idea down rather than reaching straight for my UAD stuff and incurring a large latency hit early on. Logic also shows a gain reduction meter in the channel strip when you use the stock compressors which is quite useful for broadly assessing the amount of compression over your mix. I'm not sure if this is something that can be enabled when using third-party compression plugins (my gut tells me no).
absa friggin lutely loved this video... the way you explained what each one does is exacccctly what I needed because ive been lookin at different compressors and knowing what they all do in one video was amazing so thanx... Is there any vsts out there for other daws with good sounding different compressors like the one u just mentiond?? or would I have to look individually.
Is the goal is to sound as good as possible or as much as an original piece of gear as possible? Does anyone start a mix thiniking that they want all of the compression to effect the mix the best it can or as much like an 1176 as possible. I dont want a mixer whose goal is anything but as good a result as possible.
Hey! Yeah that’s very common actually. It allows you to get more control over the sound. You can use one to catch and smooth the transients and then another to glue the vocal and give it that compressed, in your face right at the front of the mix sound. If you try to do that all with one compressor, you usually end up either over squashing the vocal or under compressing transients
Note to self: Platinum = original Studio VCA = Focusrite Red Compressor Studio FET = UA1176 black face Classic VCA = DBX 160 Vintage VCA = SSL G-Master Bus Vintage FET = UA1176 silver face Vintage Opto = LA2A
