You are one of the most helpful engineers out there! And KIND I might add. I've learned so much from your videos. Finally feel like someone isn't preaching or lecturing me.
Amazing thks for sharing broo, my first time in ur channel, I hope u can make a review about IDX from waves, loots of people said it’s alse good and cheaper. Happy new year. 😎
This plugin sounds good! Thank you so much for demonstrating it so well 🤘 Are you using the channel strip across all of the tracks or just the groups/busses?
We demand the Steven Slate preset Kit you used for this track or... maybe make a 6-7 minute video about it "How to program a modern Pop-Punk drum kit" and let the youtube revenue hit you hard!!! Seriously... it sounds so warm and beautiful... way wayyyy better than the last Blink182 album produced by Barker! p.s I know you released a video a few months ago "Mixing Midi Drums - Everything You Need To Know" that video feels kinda illegal, sharing so much knowledge for FREE... but can you imagine if that video had a genre of music attach to the title?? "Mixing METAL Drums - Everything You Need To Know" I bet you anything it could have triple the views cause you know... Metalheads search for Metal related videos, pop-punkers gonna search for pop-punk etc etc etc MAKE IT A SERIES!! Go rename that one and add the Metal word on title/hashtags (if i remember correctly it was the Metal Man preset enhanced/mixed by you to perfection) and then make a new part "Mixing Pop Punk Drums - Everything You Need To Know", "Mixing Indie Drums, "Country" etc etc You deserve all the revenue for helping all of us noobs here :D Since i found your channel my mixes improved so dramatically that I'm actually embarassed for still having my old songs up on youtube and spotify! Thank you for everything!
@@spinlightstudios Emm.. I was talking about the drum-kit you used for this video and... I had no idea about the Frank Zummo Expansion... I just google it and... YOU SNEAKY MAN... that video is uploaded only on Steven Slate channel! I have bell and notifications about your new videos!!!! So I guess the drum-kit you used on this video is the drum-kit you programmed with Frank Zummo Expansion??? If yes... then I know what I need for black friday!! Xrack Pro + Sum41 SSD expansion! :D
@fevgatos But if you listen to the pop punk demos (all of the demos) on the zummo expansion pack page (stevenslatedrums website) - you’ll hear some zummo kits I programmed and mixed :)
It's more comparable to neutron, but this just does it better, neutron has got ai, but with this, you just pick a preset and tweak it. All of the nuro plugins are nice, izotope are hit and miss at best..
would this substitute the god particle plugin on the master bus? i'm a bit confused on how to use this exactly. is this a plugin for everything else in the mix except the vocals (since xvox) exists? i know these are two different question, but would appreciate some clarity! thank you
You could use this anywhere in the mix. It’s like an all rounder style plugin. I wouldn’t necessarily use it for mastering, but you could definitely apply it to a mix bus for some processing. You can still use this for vocal, I think xvox is just specifically tailored for vocal processing.
Hey Mike! I used a mixture is spitfire intimate strings and spitfire studio strings. I definitely spent ALOT of time programming them and manipulating the velocities and feel of the strings, you have to otherwise they can sound a little robotic like all midi strings
Only thing is looking at the screen. It looks like that you’re using a number of different plug-ins and plug-in chains prior to going into xrack pro, is that accurate?
@spinlightstudios let say that will can see similar things, but ozone is much more dedicated to mastering. But this one looks much more dedicated to mix isn't it? Can we use It for mastering too? But as I know for a while the main difference between both is the price 🤣🤣. This one is much more cheaper than Ozone which is VERY expensive 😂😂😂
This is more similar to Izotope’s Neutron, which is suited for mixing more than mastering. I think X Rack is easier to use and more musical, but Neutron might have a bit more options and complexity.
@@spinlightstudios I'm on windows using brave browser and my computer deleted the file as soon as I download saying virus detected. It seems like a crazy useful plug-in though. I'll be watching for updates for sure.
Feel free to explain why you think this, pointless comment unless you can back it up with good reasoning. As someone who has used the plugin and learnt its ins and outs, it is definitely not snake oil and is a very useful mixing tool.
You are one of the most helpful engineers out there! And KIND I might add. I've learned so much from your videos. Finally feel like someone isn't preaching or lecturing me.
Thanks mate! Just keeping it real :)
Remember, every moment you waste in all things audio today is an investment in your future regret.
I started using this months ago and it's absolutely awesome
It’s a great mixing tool for sure!
Amazing thks for sharing broo, my first time in ur channel, I hope u can make a review about IDX from waves, loots of people said it’s alse good and cheaper. Happy new year. 😎
Superb demo.... Thank you !!!
Thank you for this... Definitely need to check out more of your videos!
Thanks man!
Great review
Thanks!

Yeah it’s pretty awesome! A bit of both!

Haha I appreciate that man! Maybe a good idea for another video! Are you talking about the midi drums I programmed for the Zummo expansion pack?

@ ooo sorry there is so much going on right now haha the kit in this video is live drums I tracked, and maybe a kick and snare sample blended in!

Great vid! Would you use this on vocals as well as XVox? I love that plugin but this looks even more useful.
You definitely can, Xvox is a more specifically tailored to vocal processing though. Xvox is great, used it in a few mixes recently!
How different is this from XVox Pro. Seems like there is some crossover here? Both look great! I have Xvox Pro.
Xvox is really only good for mixing vocals, it’s really been tailored for vocal processing. Xrack is more all rounder processing
thank you for clarifying
I'm interested in a channel strip like this Nuro. How does it compare to Ozone from Izotope ? They seem to be playing in the same ground.
Thanks
I haven’t used ozone for mixing so I can’t really compare the two sorry!
It's more comparable to neutron, but this just does it better, neutron has got ai, but with this, you just pick a preset and tweak it. All of the nuro plugins are nice, izotope are hit and miss at best..

Try using Kraftur VST demo instead of God Particle for the limiting/Centre area of God Particle 😀. I have both God Particle and Kraftur.
Awesome. What drums are you using?
Thanks, these are live drums with a snare and kick sample blended in!
only for BUSSES or can i just throw it on a Vox track too
Throw it on anything!
The Transient is just an Attack knob for the compression isn't it?
I guess it could just be manipulating the attack and release.. which is basically what a transient designer does!
@@spinlightstudios 90% of the time I use compressors as transient designers, the other10% for density or glue like mixbus.
should I go for xrack pro or xvox pro?
Xvox if mainly wanting to process vocals / xrack for all rounder processing!
Can you review the sound quality of the free vocal remover PopPop AI?
Hey Rhys, I was listening to “My Heart” I was wondering if those are real strings or something else like EastWest Hollywood strings or something?
Hey Mike! I used a mixture is spitfire intimate strings and spitfire studio strings.
I definitely spent ALOT of time programming them and manipulating the velocities and feel of the strings, you have to otherwise they can sound a little robotic like all midi strings
Only thing is looking at the screen. It looks like that you’re using a number of different plug-ins and plug-in chains prior to going into xrack pro, is that accurate?
Not on the sounds I’m demonstrating.
Hey Rhys. What's up? Can we say that it's some kind like ozone? Even if ozone is much more mastering?
I haven’t really looked into ozone as a mixing tool, does it look similar to you?
@spinlightstudios let say that will can see similar things, but ozone is much more dedicated to mastering. But this one looks much more dedicated to mix isn't it? Can we use It for mastering too? But as I know for a while the main difference between both is the price 🤣🤣. This one is much more cheaper than Ozone which is VERY expensive 😂😂😂
@@fwscoringmusic6670 with Black Friday, ozone advanced is in the same price range as xrack pro (which is also discounted for BF) : 175€ vs 169$
This is more similar to Izotope’s Neutron, which is suited for mixing more than mastering. I think X Rack is easier to use and more musical, but Neutron might have a bit more options and complexity.
Impressive. Shame about the price. Good vid, thanks.
Thanks! Yeah I guess, but you get a lot in it!
Which one i should buy to make my songs sounding better in final mixes. This xrackPro or izone11?
Ozone 11 is better for mastering, Xrack is more suited for generalized mixing.
Both. Xrack for some color, Ozone for mastering 👍🏻
I tried to get that plug-in but my computer said it was a virus for some reason
Do you use Mac? They changed some security settings a while back and you always have to allow third party plugins access to install.
@@spinlightstudios I'm on windows using brave browser and my computer deleted the file as soon as I download saying virus detected. It seems like a crazy useful plug-in though. I'll be watching for updates for sure.
Drop the price and more people will buy it !!!
It really sounds great but the charging too much damn money for it!
Soundz like snake oil ..nah I'm good
