What's a plugin you can't mix without? Please comment below!

@melodious2261 Год назад

My Sans amp haha : )

@charlesrocks Год назад

For drums...UAD Pultec Pro Legacy on the drum bus...with Soundtoys Decapitator. Vocals...I'm loving the JST Howard Benson Vocal Plugins (The Doubler and the OG Plugin) and CLA Vocals...For reverbs...Waves CLA Epic.

@keithferris9574 Год назад

Neold Big Al. Absolutely gorgeous saturation. Works on everything.

@davidasher22 Год назад

There’s no specific plugin that I need for every mix. I was going to say my stock EQ but if I didn’t have that I would just use a different EQ. Sorry, probably not the answer you’re looking for but it’s the truth.

@RolandDeschain1 Год назад

Waves SSL E console. I have one on every track just giving the slightest bit of compression for colouration.

@davejohnsonmusic Год назад

This gentleman has the most helpful insight and tips out there and articulates things in a way that makes sense and is easy to digest. You learn more from the thought-process behind his mix decisions, than any plugin settings.

@Featherlightstudio Год назад

Great Video! I think the big takeaway here is starting with an incredibly consistent drum performance. Taylor is spot on with consistent kick and snare hits. No pensive or half hearted sticking here, Hawkins is just killing it and proving yet again, what a monster he truly was.

@snapascrew Год назад

One thing I do when I’m trying to build a mix for my live concert tours is take a sample of the snare from the drummer and I use trigger2 to resample itself so while I’m doing my dynamics and eq I don’t get bummed out when the drummer hits off center or botches a rimshot. Then at the end I take off trigger and see how it translates. If everything goes well I transfer the avid/waves settings onto my live console.

@wyrlismike Год назад

im mixing a local band and the drummer was not consistent at all, its just one big face palm. id like marc to come to my house and show me how to mix drums like those

@Joey-rp5vg Год назад

Thanks very much Marc, great as always. Cheers to the PLAP team

@RONNYMORRISMUSIC 3 месяца назад

Love your videos. So much to learn from watching these. Simply the school of rock as it should be.

@richardsp2794 Год назад

This was a game changing video for me. Using MJUC to bring out the kick and snare in the room mics without the OH's overwhelming everything, so you can then use that energy creatively in parts of the song. I have 2 songs I've really struggled with to get a drier drum but just have some life in the mix and could never get room reverb right to do this and keep the punch. This totally unlocked the mixes for me and wider creative options too. Proper gold dust video.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Yes, great trick! The MJUC is an amazing plug in

@Okewen 11 месяцев назад

Great stuff! Thank you guys!

@bobbydreg5597 Год назад

Love these videos! Cheers Marc! RIP TH

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Thanks ever so much

@sgfdancecompany Год назад

Great like always with Marc

@Mansardian Год назад

I came here from Instagram where you posted the teaser. When he mentioned "one of the best LA in the itb realm" but the teaser didn't tell WHICH one, I had to come here 😀 and I KNEW IT!! MJUC. Always a winner. It always amazes me how much weight MJUC adds on the 2bus.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

We love MJUC plug in!! So amazing

@joint2joint2k Год назад

Marc Daniel Nelson is a beast!

@antcall6779 Год назад

Marc and Joe in the same week! Thanks Warren you rock🤘

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Thanks ever so much Ant! Yes, amazing combination of two huge talents!!

@charlesrocks Год назад

Oh man....I needed this content right now. I'm happy that I'm not too far off with how I've been mixing my drums. Except I use more outboard gear. Very cool though to see what you can do with plugins.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Great to hear!

@SinclairSound Год назад

Marc is the man, want to meet him and just listen to him talk about mixing

@mikemccaine4229 Год назад

Why would you want to meet him? You can hear him talking about mixing loads on here?

@peterheinen6110 Год назад

I'm a fan of the dbx160 in m/s for drums. 100% bigness, everytime

@Luke-ot6mk Год назад

Compressors from Overloud. They are amazing!

@nickperez_ Год назад

Awesome video

@AKAtAGG Год назад

The man's a legend. How I would love to have to mix Taylor's drumming. Love this so much. Validated me doing the 'want nothing above 150' cos that's exactly what i would've done. and i am a 100% amateur.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

You can! Make sure you check out Marc's course in the description for the full multitracks

@BlackenedNL Год назад

Love Marc!

@Producelikeapro Год назад

We do too!

Hi Marc. Could you make a video where you will be showing us your must have plugins plz? These kind of tools which you will be taking with you on journey to alpha Centauri?

@danymalsound Год назад

Great, now I have to buy the BlackBird strip lol Cheers!

@tutubeos Год назад

Exactly what I thought. It sounded already awesome since the beginning 😅

@pricedlx Год назад

I love these videos. Even though I use Cubase - it translates perfectly. Also I was sold on Marc once i saw his dog. I also am a Weimaraner owner. It is now my favorite breed. But even a noob mixer like myself can take away so much from these vids. I need to just bite the bullet and join the produce like a pro academy

@Producelikeapro Год назад

That’s amazing to hear that it translates! Hope to see you inside the Academy!

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Marc is there creating. Ideas and doing Q&A’s, he Rocks!

@BLACKSYNTH Год назад

Q: How Do you know when the drums are done? A: When the dog wakes up.

@sixstring3639 Год назад

What a joy to watch. It always sounds so good. How does one know that the drums don't camouflage the vocals for an example? Great show .Thanx.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it!

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Thanks ever so much

@joemiya6689 Год назад

@1:10. Wow it does have room ambience from overhead mics. This is without reverb plugins? Did they put mic very high? My recording experiences are limited. So I’m curious how come the overhead can capture that much reverby texture. It sounds awesome anyways!

@DeadOriginal Год назад

This is great!!!

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Thanks ever so much

@charlesrocks Год назад

YOOOOOOOO! When are you dudes gonna release some new songs!?! Can't wait for the follow up to Bought and Sold!!!

@DeadOriginal Год назад

@@charlesrocks yo!!! Been Demoing songs. Nothing to post about for release as of yet!!! With the shows and line up changes things slower down. But making effort to get new stuff going so!!!! This is Paul btw

@charlesrocks Год назад

@@DeadOriginal That's really great, Paul. I really dig the sound of the band. There's still so much to explore with that sound. I'm thrilled to hear you're still working on stuff.

@DeadOriginal Год назад

@@charlesrocks honestly been test driving it live getting our live sound down and it’s been very very very shocking on the positive feedback. It’s been so inspiring. I’ve been wanting to do this whole life man!!!!

@slesher84 Год назад

hey hey doctor evil will be jealous of your masterful hair style

@RolandDeschain1 Год назад

Taylor was rock-solid. Just a perfect timekeeper. And that is not to diminish his skills in any way.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Absolutely, agreed 100%!

@figlermaert 5 месяцев назад

Drummers should be timekeepers first, right??

@hazeofthegreensmoke505 Год назад

Wow! RIP Taylor Hawkins 🙏

the guys was not even doing anything and the drums where sounding amaizing wowwwwwww, i totally wanna hear this song

Thanks for sharing

@gutekzpoligonu Год назад

The drummers of this caliber playing to the click in this kind of studio with this kind of console sounds like Superior Drummer with just a hint of humanize, The same is with Ryan Vikedal. He sounds so tight like a SD3 and You have to put it into actual SD3 grit editor to see that it's actually live. I remember one track that CLA was mixing, very new wave, everything digital and the drums sounded the same and at the end of mix CLA is killing with the line: "That was live drums played by RHCP drummer", and I was like WTF?

@Producelikeapro Год назад

It’s so often dictated by genre. If the song has push and pull and drum parts that mirror the feel of the vocalist then they don’t have that gridded feel. Jim Kellner is a Perfect example of that kind of drummer

@gutekzpoligonu Год назад

@@Producelikeapro I know. I was just first shocked how tight those drummers are and how close to SD3 type of program they are. The valocity and the timming is almost always around +/- the same but then like You've said, and we all know - You don't have to play to the click or give it to hardcore digital editing AND at the same time if You don't have a great drummer but a great drums from program and great mixer, then You can still make a record and then find a session drummer to play live which is much easier than "rent" a guy for a longer process. ALL IN ALL: it's good to be a songwriter in this era and have a lot of options.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

@@gutekzpoligonu I’m still a fan of music that breathes! There was something that happened in the mid ‘90s on, even before digital editing was pervasive, that really changed how drums were heard

@Producelikeapro Год назад

@@gutekzpoligonu I grew up on Jazz, Blues and Queen!! That’s my kind of drumming!

@gutekzpoligonu Год назад

@@Producelikeapro and I on Polish punk-rock scene so the metronome type of drums were not in their neighborhood as You can imagine ; ) But it's all season to taste and a matter of HOW MUCH You wanna to be sign/get a career in today's DNA "rock and roll world". But isn't all starter with Pop punk/post-grunge? If You get those old multitracks (guitar hero and others) then the beginning of 2000's is a start of Nickleback'ish digital editing. Personaly, I'm in between with a live drummer and huge drums with a lot of heavy low end like Sean Kinney had on Black Gives way to blue record as I mention few times.

@Mansardian Год назад

What I notice more and more is that even engineers who do promotional videos for certain plugin companies and their SSL channels.... end up using SSL's own stuff. I agree. I did the same journey. I couldn't use any other SSL channel anymore.

Where can I get Marc's drum room IR? I bought the course and he mentions it, but theres nowhere to download it. Thanks!

@@Producelikeapro Oh my goodness thats so very kind of you. Thank you!! Happy to follow along with this now :)

@jeremythornton433 Год назад

What is that mixer/controller that Marc is using? I"m also noticing that the tracks are really really hot. I tend not to do that. Should I? They look clipped on some tracks. I didn't think that was good when you're working in the digital domain. Thanks again for another great video.

@godofspacetime333 Год назад

That’s just a zoomed in view in the DAW, if you watch at 3:26 you’ll see him zoom out and see that they’re not actually as brick-walled as they looked.

@Erix77 Год назад

I really have to say this course was abit lost on me. I mean these tracks are so good sounding, that if you get tracks like this, you dont need this course. I also think some of the examples where abit quick, like he is explaining something he thinks you already know. I got the course on recording drums at home, witch I think was better aimed at hobbyist or semipros, but hey, fun to hear this. The big take away I think is, get it right at the source, witch is solid advice anyhow👍 Anyway.... love the channel, keep it up.

@Okewen 11 месяцев назад

I think that was plane old mixing like a pro. I found I had to pay loads of attention. I'll watch it again in a noise-free environment and my best headphones. It's like sitting alongside someone actually mixing, only he's telling you stuff as he goes.

@johng7423 Год назад
