My GUY, growing up listening to your god-tier post-hardcore mixes I never thought I'd get this insight straight from the source. At this point, I will admit that I have picked up a lot of these tips either through hours of tutorial digging or hours of experimentation, but the sauce is all here, and clear, and from the man himself. Thanks Joey.

Pretty much exactly what I thought when I found out he had tutorials on TH-cam!
This is the information I needed in my life.
Always wanted to figure out how to layer rhythm guitars properly!
ikr, it's very hard to find these stuff for metal music around internet. That mono compatibility trick is what I needed
very hard to find anything metal and modern 😂💀
I would love to watch a live stream of Joey editing/mixing a song
He did on nail the mix a bunch. He even did a more recent one with attack attack’s new song
Nail the mix or Creative Live
I've seen it before
Count me in!
second that 🙌🏻
This video is a wealth of knowledge! Probably one of the best channels out here!
That's a treasure chest of information, thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the tips Joey!
Mann I just found this channel by chance... This is hands down my favourite mixing/producing channel! It's like watching a TV show and it is everything Nail the Mix should have been! Focused and to the point!!
This was very helpful. Noticed my mistakes right away. Thank you!!!
Thank you, Joey! Very informative video!👏
I learn more in the 9 minutes your video last, than in years trying wrong ideas, SUPER GREAT VIDEO.
Always usefull tips, thanks JST!
Great hints. Thanks
On a quad track recording I particularly like the blend between 2 tracks recorded on a bridge humbucker and 2 recorded on neck+bridge splited coils. Great blend with the seymor ducan sentient/nazgul.
Awesome tips. Thanks man.
Sounds amazing Joey thanks
This is pure gold man
Man, Sturgis is the frikkin god of metal mixing and tone. Toneforge Jeff Loomis changed my life. And this video was a game changer for my guitar sound, not just the double/quad tracking but also the use of atmospheric cleans and the use of effects to create texture. We bow in awe.
So many great tips in just one video! Amazing as always!
Great channel, my new favorite place to check out with a cup of joe
Your channel is helping me with my guitar production so much, thank you.
That's awesome! Keep rockin!
Please make more of these. Like... so many. I'll give you a hug and a free song.
The song you featured in this video is BANGER! Very Scandinavian melodic style, love it.
Fantastic Video! Thank you!
Helpful Lesson! Thanks!!!
Nice video! Very helpful 👌👌
I love the tone you achieve with the guitar, it reminds me a lot of Cathedral! Cheers!
Great Video!! Thank You!
Lots of good tips here!
This was so helpful. I was wondering about quadruple layering in choruses too, and now I’m excited to do it and alter the tone a bit. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Do you hard pan all the tracks? Do you ever do like 80% left and right for specific stuff? Always was curious about that.
This is AMAZING!
So good tutorial video.
You‘re awesome! Thank you!
REALLY COOL VIDEO!
These were some cool tips!!
Excellent - thank you
Great info here, for sure
Reaper "licensed for personal/small business use", eh ? 😅
Good catch lol
shhhhhh ;)
Great vid one of the best I’ve seen regarding multiple guitar tracking!
As a studio and touring guitarist first from the late 70s hard rock 80s glam,metal and virtuoso and still playing I have always struggled with getting that big sound with separation definition and clarity
God knows I have everything from radial for RE-amping, axe Fx and every plug-in emulator available,
Ox box, Torpedo, tons of vintage heads and cabs some great mics
But no goddamn patience!
I’m also very interested in this Mutt Lange technique
Thanks
Some of my favorite guitar layering is what Ken Andrew’s did on Failure’s Fantastic Planet… so good.
I never thought of processing my FX post-record on the DI... Thank you!
The thickening 🤘🏽
The lead guitar section was SUPER useful - thanks Joey! I'd been struggling with lead guitars so this helps give me a little bit of a foundation to come up with something unique. Thanks again!
Nice video! Trying to break into metal production and this helps alot. There are plenty of techniques I've used dozens and dozens of times before but its nice to see them being repeated here. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks dude.
Wow! Thank you for this GREAT video! This opened my ears to create better-sounding guitars in my songs. Mucho Thanks!!
Joey the Legend!
Using that high end Gio. Nice👌
Dat kul man 👌🏻
What would I do without these videos...
But Joey, could you maybe do a video about the important balance between the Bass and guitars (especially in the more heavy-ish genres)?
"The key to a great guitar tone, is the bass" is a quote I think I once heard in one of the many URM Academy videos on YT
a goldmine!
I totally forgot that the amount of layers affect the size of the overall mix. I feel dumb after that one but this will help me so much!
the song itself is amazing
This man speaks fcking truth to power! 🤘
I love u joey !
sweet thank ya
The single note chord building, insaneeee

Joey giving away all the secrets.
I’d be interested to see how you would mix a indie rock band.
I always quad track my rythem guitar tracks for the chorus and then double track in the verse
Hey man,really loved your way.
Could you please explain that rhythm section chop in a brief.
Thanks.
Thank you for the info! When quad tracking, do you hard pan guitars 3 and 4? Or do you bring them inward more? Maybe even expanded further out? Or do they sit on top of the already hard panned guitars 1 and 2? Thank you!
Man, I really gotta stop watching your videos while I’m on a timeline…now I gotta go quad-track a chorus 😢
The master of production ! Thanks for all.
The man the legend the vst plug-in...
Dope
Awesome video! Btw, how do you do that mouse selection around 1:45?
I love guitar left high end thinner, right guitar high end like thinner, duplicate left and right then make the guitars more thick mid range and blend them in all together. 100/100 high end 76/76 thick end. 🤘
8:57 - That man right there is a God among men
I heard that Attack Attack riff ;)))
When do you decide to track mono and track sterio ? Does it depend on the project / song your working on or is there another aspect to it ?
This is gold! 🤘😁 and... that's reaper? What skin? 😯
great video especially about the tape/foam - any products on the market for this?
Gruv gear sells stuff for $20 or more, but I've found that a velcro cable tie with the loop side on the strings does the same job, and you can get a huge roll of them for the same price. But the specialized products are more aesthetically pleasing.
Don't forget the tremolo springs as well.
I'd like a tutorial on how you setup reaper to be so pretty!
Please make Toneforge available on the M1 chips! 😫
How do you make this gradient color tracks???
are all of the pannings hard left and right ? for leads also?? thanks
Wait, was that “All My Life” by Attack Attack! I heard?? 👀
What theme are you using in Reaper?
Do you double track at once or in separate takes??
Or phase cancel issue?
The double track performance dropping back a few ms with different mics were to I buy this from?
Anyone know what Reaper theme this is ?
How did you get reaper to look like that? I have the same theme I think but your colours are more vibrant
Do you pan the quad track guitars hard L and R or are you off setting a pair to like 75% or something?
What is the name of the mic SIM unit did you say tunforge
2:47 is this attack attack? sounds like a riff from the newer ep
Awesome! Quick question! If you have 2 guitarist doing different riffs, do you double them, hard pan? Then merge and Pan those 2 performances L R?
I would pay money for a start to finish recording and mixing/editing tutorial from joey. Is that already a thing anywhere..?
Yes look up Studio Pass on Creative Live
Hey Joey! How you been?
Anybody know the song around 7:58? Melodic stuff!
What DAW are you using?
The quad tracking sounded so good, every time I try it, it seems to thin out the sound significantly. I noticed yours were called OCTAVE L/R are they just pushed up 12 semitones or are they actually played an octave above?
you can use the exact same DI and lower it by 1 octave then apply the same fx chain with a bit of variation
How would you go about panning the guitars where there is 2 distinct guitar parts? Such as harmony guitar riffs etc? I get the double track each guitar and pan L+R but how would this work for harmonies that are panned L+R without having both parts of the harmony in both ears? Hopefully I've explained this well enough 😅
Is there a link to the song @ 8:29?
What reaper pitch algorithm are you using for stretching the DIs?
Reapitch
Thank u Joey for this! I'm just starting out to this whole recording thing and I would like to ask if the DAW being used here is Reaper?
It is, reaper is dope
@@itsokaytobenormal3695 thank u!
Anyone knows how to get the floating mixer like in 1:55?
right click on the mixer dock thumbnail... uncheck "dock mixer in docker" 😉
Mutt Lange method? No thank you! That sounds like so much work. Anyways, this video is packed with so much helpful info, thanks Joey.
How come when I record guitars they sound terrible and quiet hard panned left and right, but sound good when panned like 75% or less?
Whats that song on 3:00?
