That’s a lot of moving parts. I can’t help but feel that the tedious gain staging he speaks of is an example of how taking the time in the beginning to make that static mix sound good is a big part of why his mixes are so great.
this is why when people in audio forums say they want a putney style mix, i just sigh really deeply. homie, you're gonna need a LOOOOOT of gear to get all that squish and vibe right. plugins aren't going to cut it. sound like you instead, it's easier.
I know this isn’t the focus of this video, but do you also manipulate room set ups as far a materials, furniture and placement of things to get different ambient reactions to player’s instruments and vocals?
Love this setup, very similar to what I do, I sum the outputs from Logic Pro x thru a Burl B32 summing mixer which I use for colour and to patch in my outboard gear which I use to process individual mix elements along with my busses then summing everything from the B32 down to the stereo channels 7&8 of my D-Box then from there to my mix bus comp/eq then record the stereo mix back into logic thru a Burl B2. It seems complicated but I love using outboard gear and it makes mixing way more fun for me. I also love the sound. Love your setup and your sick mixes Will!!!! He is absolutely right about the gain staging though very tedious and difficult to get right, and takes practice to get right.
you got digital tracks you recorded into your computer daw right? now you send those to a summing mixer and you can use the summing mixer to affect those digital tracks with analog hardware
The only reason I'm here is because I heard two of the newest tunes from Every Time I Die randomly on a UToob-Music mix. Song are good but the mix and production,...fantastic. Will has a new fan.
Can't argue with the results. We always encourage people to create a workflow that suits them best. This is what works for him and his results do speak for themselves. Other people get incredible results with setups that are far more simple. The setup isn't what matters, what matters is that the practitioner can do their best work on the setup.
It's not that complicated actually. It's very similar to other mixers like Michael Brauer or Andrew Scheps, just only made complex by the simple fact hes using a modular approach as opposed to a dedicated console. It gives him maximum control as well as options for swapping in different components
There's a difference between people who win and people who never try. Do you think Will Putney says I can't afford it so I give up? Fuck no he makes do with what he has and slowly adds better gear over time then fucking out works everybody around him. Why? Cuz that's what winners do. They work harder and longer. Don't sell yourself short based on gear. Work with what you have
rorz999 From what I understand, Putney was an engineering major in college who just happened to land a spot as an intern for Machine (producer/engineer for Lamb of God). So to be honest, Will learned from one of the best in a pretty prestigious studio.

That is exactly right. It's not the sexiest part but it's crucial

I'll just wipe my tears with this del taco napkin.
Makes me feel better for still using Logic Pro 9.
This guy is a young legend.
I'm sweating just watching this video.

Really cool. Looks a lot like Michael Brauer’s multi-buss compression process.
Nice!
Not quite!
Err..ehhhh... that hurt my brain
Anybody knows the name of the preamps in this vídeo?
I'm a bit new to the whole URM thing. Did the podcast end forever?
what a mensch, great content
what eq is he sending the last summing mixer tracks to?
Lord Putney
Sick
Can someone please explain summing mixers to me lol I think I have a general idea but not toootally sure
you got digital tracks you recorded into your computer daw right? now you send those to a summing mixer and you can use the summing mixer to affect those digital tracks with analog hardware
I give up. 😂
That AD-2055 doesn't see any action?
The only reason I'm here is because I heard two of the newest tunes from Every Time I Die randomly on a UToob-Music mix. Song are good but the mix and production,...fantastic. Will has a new fan.
he sounds like vinny from gta RP kind of lmao
Logic 9???????? WOah
Infommercial voice...THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY
Son is still using Logic 9... my man
and uses a lot of stock plugins. a million dollar room of analog gear and my guy is using the stock logic overdrive plugin.
Nice video but i didn't get anything
I didn't understand any of this haha
Amazing setup but way too complicated! You don’t need all that amount of gear and tracks to make good sounding music. Very interesting though 🤘🤘

You just need a few free plugins and you can bet better quality toanez
For me this is not a goot content... I don't care for the studio gear..that we... Home studio recording amatures cant afort

Pat B true work ethic bro! It’s lost on many people but you can’t have winners without losers

This is literal gold content you just have no idea what you're doing
@@luc.musicproducer totally agree, this is gold content. That’s some amazing studio equipment.
