Nuce riddim

The snare is soooooo crisp…. Tutorial on how to get that sound!!!

No way I google this and Kurt pops up lmfao! I'm looking for a timbale!! 😅😅😅😅

Meticulous Shootout !!! Great Comparison !!! Keep it up !!! The API in is another league altogether !!!

Killer sound 🔥

Need some lessons to get that kind of results :)

is there anywhere i can listen to full song?

Sounds incredible is there more info on your set up

The 1073 sounded fine on the individual instruments, but honestly where it shined in this video was the mixdown bus. Whew, did that sound good. My favorite has to have been the Camden though. Thanks for the comparison! That was awesome - and I appreciate that you played the same thing on each. Real easy to compare that way

Cranbourne subtly was a contender didnt expect that

Thanks for doing this comparison. I do wish you'd have thrown in your audio interface's built-in pres.

3:45 the sax/horn section is crazy sexy. How do you record it? Do you use plugins like session horns pro for demoing horns etc. and then you record it with real saxophone?

Average person: “They all do the same shit.”

I liked the Rupert 511 best in the mono section, but the Camden took the prize in the stereo section. The mixdown of the Camden was the most surprising. That mix just had a lot more color and dimensionality to my ears.

512c is the closest to a nicely 'finished sound' on all sources to my ear and the Camden was surprisingly similar to the API, albeit a little less consistent. Nice work

For rock and metal , I generally Hi-pass everything up to 500Hz sometimes more. I find that if I get too much "Drums" in the overheads , the drums get muddy/boxy , especially the faster the tempo is. I let the shell mics and room mics take care of the body and glue. I like your approach to cymbals on Reggae.

i have an old Windows 10 PC about 6 years old i have the first type apollo twin type c, ive had no issues, i see you are using Reason studio, which version? i use reason version10 and 11, the reason i mention this is because i was unable to use reason version 12 on my system, i got terrible sound breakup even at 1024 lantency sample setting, i tried upgrading my graphics card but it didnt help! i mainly use Reaper now, and reason 11 as a VST inside reaper.

great video!! mixdown was super helpful, those camden’s are no good

Can you do a review of MODO bass, and compare it to your real bass? I do reggae and can not get a full bass sound out of MODO. Your real bass sound full. Very few people have compared a real bass playing the same part with the same vol vs MODO

Mixdown 14:13

What software is this called?

this is video is great and super helpful. thanks man!

Big fan of your work and thanks for all these videos you’ve been putting out! Quick question, what drawbar settings do you have on the bubble organ? The sound is perfect

What’s your guitar setting brother , chops sound fire ! Would love to know how you make a mono chop sound bigger energy in mix

The Cranborne punches above its weight. I liked the Stam the least, but I’d be happy with a rack of any of them. Great vid, thanks!

They all sound great on different sources. Cranborne surprised me though while API sounds great on everything. I’d still go with the SSL as it has that undeniable punch that the others didn’t have. Great time to be a producer/mixer.

Congrats on the nice new gear, enjoy.

Amazing job, it sounds impressive and polished.

I found a iOS plugin called dub - high pass filter by audiothing. It’s modeled after what king tubby uses. Might give it a try when I get some extra funds.

hi! nNice video:-) i wonder if u could help me out, since u got a simular set as me, i as u have R8 as my main interface, recently ive added a ferrofish pulse Adat to increase the possibility for extra IO, the plan is to hook up some 19 inch comp/EQ using the ferrofish pulse adat,back to R8, but im using reaper as my DAW, i can se signal, but i cant hear anything using channel 1 and 2, do u need to set up a different monitor output for this setup in reaper maybe?, im slightlly confused, here.....how would u set this up?,using the R8 with ferrofish pulse in reaper?

Thanks for the vid. I just picked up an extremely clean example of this amp. I bought it without hearing it so I'll have to go through it to clean pots and I'll check the areas that you pointed out. In your video. There is no mention of using a Variac to bring your repair amp up to power. Did you use one? I intend to bring the amp I have up slowly with a Variac to make sure there are no funky issues before playing through it. The Standby toggle switch on mine is stuck in "On". Can that be sprayed with cleaner to loosen up?

The Cranborne is a lot better than I thought it was, can see a lot of use cases for that one... here to see how the audioscape golden pre sounds.. lovely for some high end sparkle... it's best to have a good amount of choices as there's never any best ones, just what fits for that one bit of one thing in a track

API 512C and Stam 1073 get my vote! Thank you for making this video!

I like the sound of Stam and Api

as usual, the api has no competition.

Is this the Stam with Sowter or Carnhill output?

The drums sound great, keep jamming, forward!

Thrones!! Are we using A HPF on guitar chuck?

dry drums sound so tasty

I'm impressed by all of them. That Stam tho, holy. Sounded like it had a little EQ on it. Probably unavailable as you'd expect! I may just order the Cranborne, very interesting that one, seems like it can do a lot for the price, and bonus with the Mojo. Surprised how the SSL kept up with the API, and was a tiny bit scooped in comparison with a little extra sheen. The Neve is great on acoustic. I think the Golden 58 should be traded for something better, was the least impressed with that, only sounded good on bass and snare 1, OR I'm not getting what it's about. Thanks for your efforts!

Thank you for your amazing video ♥️🙏

Should run the exact same performance through each preamp, thereby eliminating possible differences in tone due to variances in perfromance.

It sounds like it really creates more room for the vocals to shine in

Nice bro 👊🏽...

Wow, I hear significant differences on good headphones. API was tight and accurate sounding. SSL was solid, with a significant lift in the top frequencies (did you use it completely flat eq?). Camden messed with the low frequency transients, sounding woofy like boosting a bass eq. 511 was very saturated, almost overdriven, but with a modern character (did you use the "silk" knob?). Audioscape was way more compressed with significant top-end roll off. 1073 was super punchy in the low end with larger than life high mids. Very hifi "studio" sound.

Good stuff man!

Thanks for the video, roots fire sound and song🔥 How to make a mix sound so wide?

This was helpful. Thanks!

I'm a neve fanboy but the api shines here

This is my go to plugin as well. I find myself rarely using any other plugin when mixing these days.
