I've been playing guitar and bass for over 30 years. I didn't know bass players were supposed to be using compressors until I had been playing about 27 years. My Uncle Bob who started playing music in the late '60s early 70s told me that I was better off having not used a compressor because it forced me to control my Dynamics with my hands with the instrument and I tend to agree with him but there's only I guess bass players like me are a rare breed. The first compressor I used was the onboard compressor in my Ampeg svt4 Pro and I only use that at about 10% I don't know if it even did anything. One thing I loved about that was the onboard crossover allowing up I am signal low frequencies to the electro voice monster cabinet the chest crusher we used to call it and upper mids and eyes to the cab with the 410 celestions and a horn. It also allowed to send out a biampdi signal so we could process it that way or send each biamp signal into a crossover and really fuck it up by splitting it into four signals based on frequency. I always found that the frequencies that we're the problem area where the really boomy and muddy frequencies and that to me that started about 1:20 and went up to about 180 to 220 but especially that 1:20 to 150 range those were the worst to deal with I think 100 and below specially what you talking about 90 ballsy gutsy low frequency that I never wanted a engineer or live sound man to touch on my rig leave those alone that's that's my stuff I'll get that kick drum out to the crowd you just leave me my frequency down there I definitely will go check out all of you plug-ins I'm probably in the market for a couple Pacific plug-ins and a couple just kind of wild cards to see what's out there keep doing what you're doing man I will like your channel and some things I've learned from you I think will help as I start releasing guitars and bases that we build and instrument components like Bridges and bridge saddles aftermarket stuff knobs pick guards you name it as we release that I'll need to do demo recordings of the instruments and I've learned a couple of things watching your channel I think will definitely help me so thank you and I'll keep watching take care
It's not about the tone when playing in solo or even in a live situation, but in to be heard in a dense mix without the low rumbling resonant tones going overboard.
This is definitely a awesome plug-in! The huge selling point is for me is that you have a solo button and I parallel process my instrumental group my drum group as well as my vocal group and so this is going to give me the versatility I need in order to use the low bass as my starting point in the mix 🙌🏾
Love what you've done with the design and function of these plugins Jordan, they look & sound like great tools! Also, I think TH-cam forgets how good of a sense of humour you have! 😉
I see some comments comparing this to the RBass. That was my thought too, but honestly I'd probably use this more for frequently. I'm often stuck between leaving the low end uncompressed and clean and open, but still wanting more control at the same time. Sometimes I'll reach for a C4, but this plugin looks cool. Looks like it'll save time too. If anyone reads this, lemme know what plugins you use for controlling lows and subs. I'm always looking for new techniques down there.
I´m throwing it om my master buss! Works great for both taming and controlling low end and also for example to enhance some nice sub to the mix...You can of course also get the same result with other plugins...but you will then need at least two or three of them....This is WAY easier and saves both time and worries about the lower parts in you songs.
This looks great, as you said there are ways to do this with multiple plugin chains but no one plugin that does all of it. Anything that speeds up my workflow and lets me use fewer plugins (read: less CPU) is a buy for me. Looking forward to the trial.
I think I’ll grab this one, cause currently I’m using a MB comp + rbass, and I’m no satisfied with rbass. Also I tend to overthink the MB comp cause of the amount of parameters to tweak. I’m really into this minimalist approach
Cool, I watched a little further and you can cut what needs to be cut and down below it bring that ultra low chest something set a frequencies back up so kick ass this might be something I can definitely make use of cool
I literally fought my bass for weeks trying to get the low end of my riff to stay consistent as it went up and down the neck. This would have saved a ton of time.
I like this one quite a bit, UI looks crispy and it really does make that low end pop. I also like that you can control the frequency as well. Good stuff \m/
Damn Jordan, recently I was thinking that my mixes rock but I'd like to improve my low end a little bit and make it bigger, fatter. This is the answer to my production-prayers xd
Super cool! Would love to try it! Very well thought out - the right blend of simple and with enough tweak ability with frequencies to do what you need to do. One question though - how is the attack and release behaviour of the compression modelled? Is it a standard setting or is it program dependant?
Looks like a really useful plugin! It doesn't actually do anything that I don't do already with free plugins and multiband dynamic eqs and exciters but the combination of all these things in one easy to use plugin is tempting, I have to say! Workflow is everything! Saving time is definitely worth something to me...
Slider on the left is set to 90Hz, slider on the right is set to 80Hz. Why is the linear area of the 90Hz slider smaller than the linear area of the 80Hz slider? Might be helpful to specify the range of each slider? Or at least make them congruent.
How is it like rbass? Doesn’t that just emphasize a fundamental and add harmonics? This is like compressor side chain inside out. Instead of using filter to stop the lows triggering the comp, it uses the filter to stop the compressor affecting the highs. I think?
The world doesn’t need more plugins to do these things. Hopefully there will still be learning videos on this channel and the plugin selling doesn’t dominate
@@SeymourZenn at the same time none of these things are difficult to achieve with conventional plugins. So it kinda goes against the learning aspect that brought me to the channel. But no big deal. Each to their own
Looks good man. What model are your headphones? I’m always looking for some good headphones to be able to hear low end properly. Sucks about living in an apartment
Or Waves maxx bass for like 1/10th the cost, most months anyway. Their prices are just nuts for what's on offer. Sorry but they are. Very different for reviewers who get it for free who therefore can't judge it vs the cost.
They're nice plugins but the UI needs some work in my opinion. It looks like it has the beginnings of a visually appealing plugin, but as is it kind of looks like it was designed by someone who's very talented at PowerPoint

Both this and the Escalator are great looking and sounding plug-ins.
Looking forward to try them out next week.
This looks like a really useful plugin. Not really the same thing as RBass. I would love to see an autogain feature though!
Same!

😍 Cool plugin! Do you use it for the master track as well or just for the low end instruments tracks, like kick and bass, etc.?
would be great to have a pricing idea...
FIVE BAZILLION JAPANESE EURO!!!
Bitcoins bro...
My guess is normally $79... $49 Intro price?
If it's over 100 no one is touching it lol
This is a helpful to enhance a low frequencies. Because some when you boost a little for low frequencies the low part becomes muddy. Nice plugin.
Love what you've done with the design and function of these plugins Jordan, they look & sound like great tools!
Also, I think TH-cam forgets how good of a sense of humour you have! 😉
love how the piano was sounding!
Jordan: I'm kind of overdoing...
Me: SOUNDS AMAZING DUDE!!!

Hi Jordan, I love your work, I would like to know if you have any templates from your mixing session to provide us, I love the sound you make
This looks great, as you said there are ways to do this with multiple plugin chains but no one plugin that does all of it. Anything that speeds up my workflow and lets me use fewer plugins (read: less CPU) is a buy for me. Looking forward to the trial.

That’s all your fault if you don’t have self control.. you probably tweak every plugin that you put on your tracks.. that’s not the companies fault
Can’t I just use a multiband compressor instead?
Well done Jordan,,, Bring it on let's give it a try.
this looks like something I would use this alot
Cool, I watched a little further and you can cut what needs to be cut and down below it bring that ultra low chest something set a frequencies back up so kick ass this might be something I can definitely make use of cool
I literally fought my bass for weeks trying to get the low end of my riff to stay consistent as it went up and down the neck. This would have saved a ton of time.
Very cool! Similar to Waves RBass + the added compression control.
Yup, similar thing. But I think you'll find this enhancer more versatile & powerful
I like this one quite a bit, UI looks crispy and it really does make that low end pop. I also like that you can control the frequency as well. Good stuff \m/
Liking this one. Can see myself using it often as well as getting me a couple more steps away from waves
Hello Kitty Boom Box??..lol Sweet lil Easter Egg.
Other than the UI what makes this different from Waves Maxbass or to a lesser degree Rbass?
Damn Jordan, recently I was thinking that my mixes rock but I'd like to improve my low end a little bit and make it bigger, fatter. This is the answer to my production-prayers xd

The attack & release is fixed; but it will work for you on any source.
@@hardcoremusicstudio thank you
Looking forward to checking it out!
Cool, thanks for the review! 7:36 This is a Nick Johnston track, are you mixing it?
Looks like a really useful plugin! It doesn't actually do anything that I don't do already with free plugins and multiband dynamic eqs and exciters but the combination of all these things in one easy to use plugin is tempting, I have to say! Workflow is everything! Saving time is definitely worth something to me...
Super interested in the low control.
i want this 1 as well
I tried this today on a mix (bass) and wow, this is a great plugin. I hope it’s going to be affordable since money’s tight atm..
Just checked the price, nevermind. :(
@@toefes lol yeah it’s $99 bucks.. it’s never about helping anyone in the end, it all about making money and nothing else.
The low control have some “clicking and noise issues” when you export it to audio. 😭😭😭😭
This has the potential to replace two plugins in my bass chain.
sounds like earthshaker amp💯
Despite already having a workflow that addresses low end pretty good, I will definitely check out that plugin. So easy to use! BTW, Nick Johnston. 🥰
So this is like a RBass alternative?
Rbass with compressor/limiter for low end I would say \o/
C4 + RBass
Could you just use a multipressor?
Slider on the left is set to 90Hz, slider on the right is set to 80Hz. Why is the linear area of the 90Hz slider smaller than the linear area of the 80Hz slider? Might be helpful to specify the range of each slider? Or at least make them congruent.
How is it like rbass? Doesn’t that just emphasize a fundamental and add harmonics? This is like compressor side chain inside out. Instead of using filter to stop the lows triggering the comp, it uses the filter to stop the compressor affecting the highs. I think?
You put bass under kick in the eq? Just wondering :)

He is using the Audiotechnica m50x if I am not mistaken.
They look to be Audio Technica M50X. I also own them and they are great!
Looks like Audio Technica ATH-m50x. I have the m-40 and am pretty satisfied with them.
@@JayKayProductions Nope. Those are the old M50's. They supposedly do have some sound difference.
Is there windows support or is this mac only?
Windows & Mac
It's like C4 multiband meets Rbass
Are these gonna compete with waves pricing😂
No, we are not a discount brand
Feels good. Shame the GUI is unattractive tho! So where can we buy these plug-ins?
not yet out. gui looks good to me no bs
are you blind?
Sign up. May 18th for early access.
I like the GUI but hate that it doesn’t have auto gain.
@@nenntmichbond No but you obviously are. There are much better GUIs than this. Gtfo with your negativity.

Seems like an 1176 and maxxbass

Another snake oil! If you want to control your low end you just need limiter and that’s all🤦🏾♂️
Limiter will flatten the low end.
Hahahaha I really hope this was supposed to be sarcastic
Not really, limiting reduces peaking. While 'enhancers' and saturating increase the harmonic frequencies, literally fattening up the sound.
@@BukanIbuMu no
@@christianbiend4458 u put a limiter on 1-300 hz?
