What is your favourite plug in suite? If you are interested in getting T-Racks 6 you can get it here:- ikmultimedia.sjv.io/AWrveK
I have T-Racks 5 MAX. The fact you can't update from 5 to 6 at a fair price annoys me.
@@Czyszy I got email stating different upgrade prices based on how many you own.
I have found over recent years that some companies charge a bit more but you are not paying for updates. However I appreciate plugins like this are really cool. One can't help but notice how the main TH-camrs ares pushing this all on the same day. IK are good with marketing.
A not so secret here too. Trick; "IK's one" on the master two. Been doing it since the first version came out. Master 2 trick for those not sure = instrument busses routed to single track and side-chained to the vocal buss for ducking purposes. These days, my master 2 will have IK One adding some extra width, transient definition and bass pump along with light compression altogether. One is followed by a de-resonance plug set to side chain for pulling down instruments to make room for vox with hi/lo bandpass targeting only the vox mids. For me that doesn't mean soothe. It means TB pro audio's "dseq3". IK tape 24 "finish 15" on master 1 followed by a limiter. Keeping the vox away from a lot of instrument processing on the main master keeps it a bit cleaner and standing separate. At least, that's my current theory, lol. Hope that made sense. Cheers. 👍
It's not really mixing and mastering but IK Amplitube & Modo
The One is a favorite of mine. Been using it several years.
That’s awesome to hear
IK are probably my favourite plugins. They just do exactly what I want, it's the best.
Thanks for sharing!
This is the only guy that can hold my full attention when turning knobs {mixing and talking} ... Probably because he always lands on the almost exact spots that I would . Only he's the master / maestro !! Love u Warren 😀💜✌
You're very kind! Glad to be able to help!
Very glad to see this video with Warren. I have missed these. Always a pleasure 🙏🏻
Haha I"m always here! Been working A LOT!!
T-racks 5 was the first bundle I bought and I( still use it. I'm upgrading.
Marvellous! Thanks for sharing!
Stealth Limiter is one of those shining stars in their T-Racks bundle. Crazy loud without destroying.
Marvellous!
Only the other day I cited the T-Racks One as my Desert Island plugin. It's so simple and it just works! 😎
That’s great to hear!!
@@Producelikeapro One day, by mistake I put t rack one on the acoustic guitar buss. Default setting... j adore !
@@DanielGuillaud perfect!! Happy Accidents!
@@Producelikeapro It's like what my parents told me about my existence 😂
T Racks is my fav. I use the individual components within my mixes and for mastering.
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
The 16th note kick you were talking about ... you´re so right ;-) ...by the way, I sat there where you were sitting... 1990-91 ... isn´t it crazy 🤘😎 ...thank you for a great video
Cool, thanks! 🙏 I really appreciate it
I really own a bundle from t racks but I never took advantage of all of the possibilities that these plugins offer. This video really changed my mind and I discovered one of my new favourite plugin brands. Warren always being incredibly professional and kind!! 🎵🔥
Thanks ever so much for sharing! I am glad to be able to help!
T-Racks is doing well this days, I love it's Studios Room Emulations and other mixing plugins
Marvellous! Thanks ever so much for sharing
Updated directly when I saw it. Can't wait to dig deeper. I have used tracks 5 so many times. The new modules looks wild :)
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
I love the sound of T-Racks, this year I upgraded to the Total Studio 4 Max and it really is a blast. The sound provided by T-Racks is very clean and beautiful. One has been on my Bus Master for years and is the best.
Thanks for sharing!
Great overview. I just upgraded to this suite and love them. Nice that they still support us guys on older macs. Thanks for explaining the nuances of getting it hot but not losing the dynamics and details.
Thanks ever so much! Glad to help!
Thanks for having me on the channel. Your a legend ❤
No, YOU are THE legend my friend!!
@@Producelikeapro 😅
@@WhoIsAlexElliott you're the man!
Cool. I remember you taking us through the building on a video awhile back. 😊 I wanted T Racks for several years now and almost got it Labor Day.
Thanks ever so much!
You won't be disappointed! I upgraded to T-racks a few months ago. Before that, I was using Studio One stock plugins. I feel like I went from a VW bug to a Porche 911 Carrera Turbo.
Got 5 Max for $50 bucks a couple months ago. Been bug free, so not in any rush to upgrade (especially since I wouldnt use the new plugins).
Thanks for sharing
Absolutely love Hansa, some of the greatest albums were made there!
Me too! Amazing studio!
The One is the one for me I always uses! In the Suit plugin I parallel it to the Model 670!
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
Love this video, history, mixing and great plug in demo!
Thanks! I really appreciate it
My god that is so crazy the difference this plug in makes. The life it gives the mix is creamy and the clarity of the high end of the vocal makes it sound louder even with the volumes matched. I would be curious the see the LUFS measurements for both of these.
Ps. I was mentioning the first plug in you went over.
The New multiband saturator looks amazing!
Pretty awesome
Thanks IK, warren and Hansa!
Thank YOU!
Glad to see others enjoy this "one" as well
Marvellous!
Love T-Racks stuff, since way back when it was an all in one app. Speaking of Peavey, I was at a gig once and had someone whom I really respected ask me about my tone and what amp I was using (I had taken it out of the housing and put it in a homemade rack) - it was a Renown! Had zillions of nobs on it and while it wasn't expensive or say Marshall on it, it was pretty cool!
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
This is fantastic Warren. Id known T-Racks for years since my very early Cubase days and used some tube sims or something but I’m so glad they’re still a thing. At 99 dollars I may well go for it and start using it on mixes - cheers
Thanks ever so much for sharing! I really appreciate it
I have been a huge fan of the One plug-in and have always wondered why no one really raves about T racks plug-ins more they do, so thanks for giving them the well deserved spotlight👍🏾. Also loved the collab with Alex Elliott at the end. Great content as always!!
Alex rules!! We love him!!
I always loved T Racks! Been using them since 1999! Yowsa! That’s a long time
@@Producelikeapro Warren, your content always leaves me feeling inspired and makes me just want to make music! Thanks for everything you have done and continue to do for the music community-your passion and heart are undeniable.
@@Producelikeapro yes Alex is amazing. Have only recently discovered his channel, but I am hooked and a HUGE fan. That head nodding stuff is insane😂
@@riasure wow! That's very kind of you! Community is so important to me!!
Wow! 5 hours ago? I was watching a tut yday and they were using the TR5 Clipper which I was investigating, I didn't realize their gear was so good, just an amature you see! 😅
Love that tune, sounds like the inside of my head, Small Faces anyone? Ogdens Nut Gone Flake? 🥰 I had a Peavey amp in the 80's can't remember that far back....oh dear....
Great! I was thinking Munjo Jerry 'In The Summertime', however, I'll take the Small Faces!
@@Producelikeapro Love Mungo Jerry, wish I was that cool! But it's defo Small Faces, if you're not familiar with the Album, alter your mind slightly and have a listen, it's life assuring! ;D
T=Racks is underrated IMO. Even if I'm using components from different companies on my masters, I always have t-racks plug ins like the Fairchild, linear eq and others, like the clipper is fantastic.
Me too
I use the "White Channel" on every track as my channel strip. That hold knob on the gate is awesome. I use the "ONE" on my drum, guitar, and vocal busses.
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
IK T RACK 5 IS ALL I USE ITS STUNNING FOR CINEMATIC MUSIC GREAT VIDEO WARREN BEST WISHES PHIL
UK SHROPSHIRE 👍
Great studio, great plug ins!
thanks very much!
Great video, excellent tips, wonderful studio!
Thanks ever so much!
Rock on! 🤘🏼
Thanks ever so much!
I really like T-Racks 5, even though I don't use all of the plugins. Some of them are real gems. I won’t be upgrading due to the cost and the fact that the new modules don’t interest me, except maybe the Pusher plugin. Thanks, Warren-great to see you back on the channel. Cheers, Chris
Thanks for sharing! Oh I’m always here! Haha thanks ever so much
Thank God for the blessings He has given you.
Each and every day my friend!
T-racks is my go to! 😁💪🏽
Marvellous
Love all the IK plugins but didn't know about their One mastering plugin!! WOW time to upgrade ha!
Yes!! We did that! Haha
I used this back in 2003 to master a Weezer recording of Green Day's "Worry Rock" haha, in some guest house in Whittier. It was dead simple (and all I had)
That’s awesome! Who played bass on that? Was that just before Scott joined? Thanks for sharing
Totally awesome suite, and worth every penny
Thank you Warren, for bringing a bit of your genius to us mortals 😘
Aw shucks! You're far too kind! Thanks ever so much
@@Producelikeapro not really. You and your brilliant team put a silverlining to our 'struggle' to create good stuff. And I can't imagine you Warren ever got time to actually work in your sweet studio. That level of devotion is admirable!
@@nilsakesson1346 that's so kind of you! We really appreciate the support!
There is something to say about having a wonderful track in the first place to master which just bounces along so nicely. I like to use a limited number of plugins which add something organic back into the track and removes that digital feel from it. I like stacking compressors until a natural thickness happens (glue) and removing harsh frequencies, getting all the bits of the track in the right place so that that there is a dimensionality to the sound in all directions. Brilliant session again 😃
Couldn't agree more! Thanks ever so much for the marvellous comment!
@@Producelikeapro thanks for the demo of the mastering plugins. I didn't realise that the IK mastering suite had an extensive array of sound and frequency analysing tools very much like Paz plugin built-in. I think if you don't have those tools, the IK plugin covers it all. Great value for sure.
I’ve tried some mastering plug-ins but buying T-Racks was an easy choice when comparing the others.
Yes, agreed! Sounds great, easy to use, a no brainier for me for 25 years now!!
Very good and impressive. Thank you! 🙏🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for doing what you do. You do it well.
Thanks ever so much
What a marvelously joyful song that is. It immediately put me in mind of T-Rex for some reason which then made me laugh when I thought - T-Rex done on T-Racks! Sorry guys. It's been a long day lol. I love IKs Classic EQ and their Echoplex emulation.
Haha good one! Thanks for sharing!
That is wild. It opened up so much when you turned it on. Took "the blanket" off it nicely. And I agree, it's nice when you find a plugin that does multiple things. Unfortunately for us, profits keep the doors open so that will always be something we have to deal with.
Thanks for sharing! ‘Unfortunately’ profits keep your business alive? Please clarify!
@@Producelikeapro Just meant that they know it's more profitable to make more plugins for us to buy so holistic plugins that accomplish multiple things at once are uncommon. It's unfortunate for us as the end user since we're the ones having to pay for all of them.
@@ProduceWithGibbs understood. I do think that the 60 plug ins that come in this bundle for $300 at $5 a plug in is extremely good value for money! Several companies charge that price for one or two plug ins!
@@Producelikeapro Agreed!
Thank you so much!!!
You're welcome!
No one have been talking about it because of it's amazing futures its always a secret weapon
Mastering with T Racks is the best
Agreed 100%!
Superb video
Marvellous!
T-Racks were my very first 3rd party plug-ins many moons ago. Can’t say that I’ve found anything better - as impressive as? Sure, but not more so. Trustworthy with their pricing too.
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
Thank you!
You’re very welcome
Been mastering with tracks , since 1997 , the first purple version with a dinosaur graphic. Now t tracks 5 max is one of my secret sauce mastering tools . Especially the tape plugin and limiter , and the master match
The secret is out! Good! Great product
Its a great software. Sir, do you have any tutorials on how to mix lead and backup vocals especially for soft and hard rock?
Upgraded
Marvellous!
I've got a few pieces from TR5 that I like to use often. Black76, Comprexxor, Classic Clipper, EQ81, Model 670. Really high quality stuff. I love their synths and sampled instruments too. My only knock on IK is the bloatware and not being able to choose what formats you want to install. Storage real-estate runs out pretty quickly if you don't get rid of formats you don't use, or need.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
That coke bottle sitting there is freaking me out man
On a table behind me no where near the console? Haha
Hey Master, I can’t wait to update my software
That’s awesome!!
I've been using One and Clipper on the Mixbus for a while now and also like Stealth Limiter on the Main Out. I don't use a lot of the others in T-racks 5 but i use Amplitube 4 quite a bit. I really should experiment more with the plugins, probably too many other options? My only small gripe is, when A/B-ing there is a bit of latency but as i say, this is a minor issue.
Nice one Warren (Track is reminiscent of The Small Faces? - Groovy!)
Cheers!
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
That 'Pusher" be giving 'Cubase Squasher' vibes
Thanks for sharing
GR8 WAW❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Thanks ever so much!!
You could hear the vocals come forward with the first plugin, I think it is called "the one"
Yes, I really like that plug in!
Great video!
Love IK
@@spitfiremusic3997 we do too!
Thanks ever so much!
Wow it's sounds good❤ .
Marvellous!
Great video as usual, Warren! I have been a big IK fan for the last ten years or so; extending to the old Sampletron and Miroslav Philharmonik days. I totally agree that IK goes below the radar. I have the 5 series plugins, they are all outstanding. Do you use the Tape Echo plug in at all?
I will double check when I get a chance! On a flight!
I doi use the Tape Echo plug in! I did a review a few year ago about it!
@@Producelikeapro Oh you did? Nice. The Tape Echo, I find, really re-creates the hauntingly beautiful inconsistencies that are looked for in that sort of thing.
I'm a huge fan.
Marvellous
It just works.
Exactly!
That is a beautiful blue
Marvellous
the volume boost is not distracting... when it's bypassed the mix sounds small and narrow. When it's engaged the mix sounds large and wide ...
Indeed, I just know that there's people who are new to this and can't yet hear the differences and only assign it to volume changes, so it's important to help them!
So you've done great reviews of this and Masterplan, which do you prefer?
I've used T Racks since 2000 when they came out!
Now I've added this to my arsenal as well! Horses for courses!
I have had 5 for a while, happy with it, is there a vast or subtle improvement with 6???
If so in what ways?
You'll have to go to their site and see what improvements there might of you! Ultimately I was using 5 until last week and LOVED it! IK make great stuff!
Ik it’s good when I can hear it on my iPhone speakers!
Haha indeed! That's a good sign!
oh yeah track is awesome
Thanks ever so much!!
Thank for the video, Warren! You could have had two subgroups on the console being fed the track, having one pretend to be your master with T-Racks and the other one dry, to accomplish proper level match.
i was in hansa last Saturday :-)
Marvellous! We had just left! Wait which Saturday?
@@Producelikeapro i was travelling to berlin i did the tour of hansa the 8th!! the room was exactly like in the video (except your laptop) :-) amazing room the sound is great!!
the guide has us listen to Bowie and Iggy's and u2 on the main monitors was amazing! totally different from my bedroom studio :-)
@@electronik808 that's very cool!
@@electronik808 Yes, we had an amazing time there! As per usual!
Man I would buy a max bundle a week before a major upgrade 😅
Could only be improved by adding selectable or defeatable oversampling options in some of the modules,notably the tape machine collections,which have a high CPU footprint.The Stealth Limiter has this,so,please IK,extend it to other modules in the future where oversampling is operating under the hood.Excellent product aside from this.
Thanks ever so much for sharing! Maybe that's in the works?
what onestop mastering software would you recommend for home studio digital recording what do you think of ozone 11 for mastering in a home studio
Ozone is great! However I do consider it a repair software, I tend to only use Multiband to fix
@@Producelikeapro so T-rex 6 is a one-stop pc software for mastering, I use Ableton 11 and want software for Idiots to master my home recordings, I had T-rex years ago? but don't really know their new software abillities
I’ve been rockin with IK Multimedia since I bought the cd-rom of Sample Tank 2 back in 2008 in Sam Ash (such a shame Sam Ash went out of business)
Thanks ever so much for sharing! Yes, less retailers is not a good thing at all
Any chance your Home Studio Book could be relased in Kindle version?
Interesting idea!
Thanks for a great video appreciated
You’re very welcome!!
Peavey were great amps especial for pedal's
Agreed, loved my Peavey Amps!
If things like this do stuff that makes it sound better, isn’t it better to go back to those components of the actual mix and change them there instead?
The video focusses on mixing, we have lots of videos on recording! The assumption is this is what you've been given to mix, not that any of the files here needed any major manipulation! Wishing you all the best!
Sadly very underrated
Not by me!!
Multiband saturator rules
Agreed!
Impressive!
What song is that? Sounds great
It’s by a band called Love Sick Radio! You can download the multitracks
Have they made it possible to just install one plugin or do you still have to install the whole pack even if you only own a few? Because that is a dealbreaker for me.
I don't know, I only have the full bundles as the price makes sense for amount of plug ins I use of theirs. I'm sure their support can answer that question for you!
I love T-Racks, but lack of automatic gain compensation is driving me mad ;)
Sir can this used with Logic Pro 11 ??
By my ears, the bass punch is just a hihpass filter of what comes in and triggers the compression. The focus is just a 3db boost of a frequency betweek 800 to about 3k to p7ch the signal and then trigger the compressor by the boost. But I am not a professional, so I may be wrong.....
Nice
Thanks
I f I upgrade do I lose my t rack 5 plugin or dose it keep 5 and install 6
Will my license/installation of T-Racks 5 Max be affected at all by this release? I had just bought 5 and am concerned. Also, would the new upgrade be worth it at all?
It comes with 8 new plugins and an updated GUI , the upgrade from 5 is decent price, but if you don’t want to upgrade your all good I’ve seen no problems staying at 5.
You should be totally fine just to keep using 5 I wouldn't worry.
@@Todzuum Thank you so much for the info!
@@BrofUJu Thanks!
Firstly 5 its amazing! Secondly I'm sure IF you want the upgrade it won;t be that much, considering how many plug ins there are! Let us know how you get on!
Honestly i just want the sound from t-racks 2.4 standalone in my daw. I have been searching for it for years. Im about 99.9 percent sure it was the multiband unit in there that done it, i use "the one" now, its good but its just not the same
You can still use all the T Racks Classic modules, exactly like you did at the beginning! That's what I do!
@Producelikeapro it's from the standalone version, unfortunately the plugin version just doesn't sound the same to me, I still use the 2.4 standalone version to this day lol
