Hi. i'm looking for mic preamp but i do have tube mic it's avantone cv12 is it okay if i connect the ART Pro MPA II 2-channel Tube into tube mic does it cause any problems cause they are tube the mic is tube and the preamp is tube i never had preamp before

Own a pair of the DT770's.They are sort of mid rangey sounding, which is good for people tracking vocals. All the parts can be separately purchased from Beyer, which is good for replacing any broken worn out bits. But sound wise, more so for tracking, I absolutely love the sound of Vic Firth MKII Stereo Isolation Headphones. So much so, I bought 5 pairs of them for the whole band to track simultaneously with no bleed, +20db of isolation due to the 'ear muff type' design. They were designed originally more so for drummers, but they have a great clarity/ bass response around 100Hz area to hear the kick/ bass relationship, and quite smooth/ flat sounding. Apart from needing just a bit more air/ brightness/ 10khz lift, if you really need to hear the cymbals/ vocals clearer, I'm really happy with them, especially at that price point.

I DO have them . The 250ohm version. I have had mine 2.5 years and I love them! When I let my friend try them she loved them too! The only thing I could love more would be a 2.4 Ghz wireless version for everyday listening!

my ears are trained to the AKG 240 open backs and the DT 770's and use both!...less ear fatigue with the 240's and can still communicate with the environment around me, good for jamming... the 770's though are super luxurious in comfort and sound quality.

I have a Kemper Stage and HR Prime & Core, and had an FM3. Honestly, the Kemper and FM3 have to have a real good day to beat my 2nd gen HR products. I freely admit Fractal effects are the best, and I do think Kemper overdrives are the best only if on a top capture. My Kemper Stage is a nice unit, but my HR Prime & Core are so darn good at getting really good tones fast, and so easy to use. All of these units have very different personalities.

Are you saying that this bus is not too much to figure out.? To figure out.

thanks for the rig rundown, low-rent liverpool Seth Green , keep 'em coming!

To my ears, none of the IK Multimedia emulation compressors actually sound or behave like they should compared to the originals (and I have quite a few, for example their Black76 behaves and colours things more like an LA3A, and the tape echo is unlike any vintage tape echo machine I've ever owned through the decades), and their ecosystem/download & update system is a real PITA. That said, many of these pluhins are very flexible, with M/S processing and extra features etc, and some of the ones not emulating anything but just being their own thing are really good. Horses for courses. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Oh, and their Sunset Sound Studio rooms, chambers, plates and spring is IMHO one of the absolute greatest ITB reverbs ever made. (BTW, for 1176 and LA2A and SSL bus comp and analog tape machine emulations, the humble Hornet Plugins, also from Italy as IK is, does far better for far less money and with far less fuss, albeit with very graphically bare bones GUIs... try them, is my advice)

This is a hidden secret. Its very good

This comp is excellent! That grit button sounds great

Oh, we use what we prefer. Yes.

I'll tell you why. Because T-Racks is a pain in the @ss to install lol.

Hey Robby, really interesting in light of our conversation the other day. In that situation l found the Townsend got me where I wanted to go faster. But with the material you have here, I think the iK is performing quite well. And it doesn't have the crush sound of the Pulsar (isn't that effectively 20:1 or more?) but I thought it opened up your drums very nicely in a less dramatic way. Ultimately, its less about picking "the best" plugin and more about finding what works best for the recipe you are working on right now.

IK make good stuff, love their Fame studio reverb

I don't use that comp from them but I do use their Black 1176 comp all the time on every single mix and on many sources. Thanks for showing this one.

Haha first in!

Reaper is like that quiet girl that you get talking to and discover she is the most amazing beautiful girl in the world. Literally so much endless depth to it. When you get the action lists and extensions and JS scripts going however you want along with all the general customisation its great, I mostly use Ableton live but for sound design and music for film and video games, its perfect and lately I have just been using it for demos and experimenting musically due to its fluid routing and speed.

Excellent video

Good stuff! You can also use Melodyne for drum triggering- you can drag a drum track in and analyze it with percussion mode, then drag the resulting file onto a track with a sampler. I use the stock Studio One sampler Impact so I easily add one or more samples to the track and blend them.

Great job, Robby! I love the ones that just do what they should. Another great one for almost anything you want to stay level is thr LA-3A. Black Rooster has a great one, and I think the bx_opto might be too.

seasick steve would want one I think

You said, “Here’s how I used to do it, I would grab this… so dumb!” Well, that’s how I’ve been doing it, so THANK YOU!!!

Just got my player in today. I was curious of the kemper sound as i have a fractal fm9. Im blown away at the sound and how easy it is to dial in a good sound. Frectal is awesome but this is much better for me. I already bought the upgrade lol. Worth it to me

How easy is it to dial in a Metal tone on a Kemper as compared to the Neural Dsp,Axe Fx 3 or the Line 6 Helix?

It's a pity guitarists commenting all over social media and YT didn't take 10 seconds of their time to read the Kemper website. "The Kemper Profiler Player now also lives in the Paradigm, the Philosophy of the original Kemper Profilers". "NOTE: Of course the Level UPGRADES do not replace the traditional free software and feature UPDATES tradition. The LVL UPGRADES are just an offer to optionally enhance the feature menu towards the bigger units".

Nice video mate. Nice compressor. I just bought one tonight. Haven’t got it yet. Sounds great on the drums and guitar. However IMO , just listening on my phone I felt it absolutely destroyed the lead vocal. Even on the mix I felt the vocal just lose. So I wouldn’t use it for mix or lead vocal and def wouldn’t track vocals through it ever. As far as the background vocal stems, it could work if you want that sound. But for the instruments you got here it sounds wonderful for the price. And nice playing too I like the guitar parts. Good song. Cheers.

Devil-loc is the way. Its most obvious use is a drum buss compressor. Recently, I started using it on my stereo buss, putting an attenuator before it with preset amounts (0, -6, ,-12, and -24db). It gives a certain flavor that I love to mix into.

I watched up until your 1st plugin was a Waves plugin. as a musician, I would literally be throwing my soul down the toilet by buying anything and using anything by Waves. A company so demonstrably devoid of decency and honesty on a number of occasions. The Waves plugins are old and on the last occasion the nearly went bust due to their business practices, many lists of alternatives, free and paid was made. Most daws just come with the equivalent of these plugins and there are lots of free ones. there's no need to buy anything from company's that have proven to hate you.

It's the price of the upgrade. Fine they did it but at that price? No thanks. I'll vote with my wallet and purchase something else.

Can't Afford Not To Record? instead? House Keeping?

My only problem with Kemper doing this is that people are having to install beta software before they can receive the upgrades which to me is just not good enough. I'm going to wait until after Christmas before I decide whether or not to upgrade my used Player.

Softube saturation knob, is also an easy to use plugins to add vibe to vocals and drums

Will be a good idea to run the Kemper on studio monitors? I want one for my studio and I have a pair of Adams

Hi, great video. Does anyone know how to turn the power amp off on a powered Kemper please? Thanks.

I am not against paid upgrades but then the hardware must be cheaper. As it is, kpp price / features ratio is very bad compared to orher contenders in this category, then paying extra $300 makes it even worst.

The issue is simple, you should pay for new amps/cabs/sounds but not unit features. It's like buying a car and then finding out you can't go above 60 unless you pay more and then a wifi update unlocks to 70... then a year later you are allowed to pay more to unlock to 80... The tires, seat covers, fuel, speakers ect are all on you if you want to upgrade, but finding out you have the best speakers but the sound quality is locked behind a paywall is absolute garbage. In fact your logic is bad here because as it goes, the claim is that "You can't expect the Kemper to have ABC and pay 700$ day 1!" But the Kemper DID have AB and C day one... what it didn't have was more cabs/amps/pedals b3ecause they had not been made yet. Kemper deserves the blow back and the revenue loss is has and will continue to take for screwing people over by selling them something twice.

The cost is extortionate £€ 300!!😮 like you said previously £30 maybe. I was going to buy one of the players the other week and glad I didn’t, Kemper have lost a new customer, I’ll take my money elsewhere. Also agree with units that don’t have an on/off switch 😂

It's funny how shills try to rebrand the name "update" to justify this. No need to justify haha, if you want it buy, if you don't then don't. No need for word gymnastics

If you add a two footswitch for $20 you'll now have 7 foot switching options considering the latest free firmware update enabled dual 1/2 & 2/3 foot switching.

People and TH-camr influencers were too emotional when the paid upgrades were announced. Instead they should have waited 48 hours to cool down and think before exploding with negativity. The new upgrade firmware gave a bunch of free updates to the Player....no one's mentioned that on social media because they're confused as to the difference between upgrade and free updates. If you do a paid Upgrade or not you'll still get free updates for years to come like we've been getting for the last 12 years. I choose to do no paid upgrades to my PLAYER. Because currently I have a bunch of Drive stomps, Compressor, Boost to choose from upfront and a bunch of Modulation choices, great Delays and Reverbs, Cabinets, IRs, every amp Profile imaginable including most important, Liquid Profiles, etc etc....compare that to the Nano Cortex....stock Level 1 Kemper Player wins, no contest. Plus. The latest free update added all the Amp and Cabinet parameters that the Stage has. Added ASIO Drivers. Enabled dual 1/2 & 3/4 foot switching.

I should go visit and we can compare my tonex to the kemper Could be a fun video

wow, I've been using REAPER for years and didn't know that. I usually make a region for the render period and double-click it, but this is easier (and doesn't result in overlapping regions). Another render tip is that you can save render presets. I have one I use for when I want to do a quick and dirty bounce to mp3 but with loudness boosted a bit, and another for my final project renders.

Nice tip will have to give it a try

Ive got (2) Heritage VTX amps and (4) Classic VTX amps. Overall I own 34 peavey amps. Best products ever invented!

Hello! How it sound VLA 2 in song mastering? 🤔

I bought a used one ten years ago (I live in France), the guy didn't use it anymore. I paid 80€... but the handle was missing... when I took it, I immediatly understood why he sold it so cheap 😅. In mine, there are scorpions speakers. Wonderfull clean sound and tubescreamer sound inclosed. I don't use it often cause it is very loud, but i will never sell it.

All i use is vintage Peavey now. I got one of those amps It had been left outside for years and it still works.

first decent amp i ever got. i loved it. moved and sold it. missed it. got another one. moved and sold it. now on number three. this one has black widows but i always liked the scorpions, too. the phaser is still great. :)
