The Waves SSL E-Channel has been my go-to for 15 years now. I use it on nearly every channel on every mix. This video will show you exactly how I use it on Kick, Snare and Vocals... also Electric, Acoustic guitars... I'm telling you, this preset will work on anything you want to make sound punchy and urgent!
Thanks for this great breakdown of your “instant awesome” setting. While you’ve demonstrated this in the past, this is the best and clearest presentation yet.
Love how you actually explain why you do what you do! Incredibly good video!
one of the best tutorials on the strip Ive seen in along time, well done!
This plugin is fantastic. If you have an untreated room the gate/ expander will take the majority of the noise out . Also it takes away headphones bleed. Greatest plugin ever.
What settings should I put it on to take the noise out and remove headphone bleed
@@nash5753 let me know if you’ve figured it out I’m wondering the same thing
Just turn your threshold to about -16 dB then adjust the range until you hear the bleed somewhat fade. Threshold dictates when the gate opens. Attack and release can be adjusted as well. Typically faster attack is good for drums, release is whatever sounds good or is practical in my opinion.
Really clean and precise tutorial...I just got my SSL E channel yesterday...can't wait to take things to a new level in my tracks. Thank you for this!
Thanks, I'm four minutes in and have already learned a lot. Already liked, subscribed, and added to my playlist.
Got to admit.... this exceeded my expectations! Thanks Kevin!
I agree with John. One of the best tutorials on this plugin I've seen. Thank you!
Man thank you for this one, your application of the channel strip is realistic, much appreciated
Excellent video, particularly the graphical depiction of the Split and Channel Out buttons. And I'll be using the compression tip for all future mixes. Thanks so much!
Literally the most explanatory and clear tutorial I've seen on the waves ssl e Channel strip.They need to send you a check. You have a new sub💯
You are amazing with your explanations, sir. Congratulations. Much appreciated
Love this video man. Thanks so much. I've had the SSL series for almost seven years now, and I've probably used the E channel just one time!!!! I use the LA2a compressor emulations, the Pultec emulations, the 7 band stock Eq in Pro Tools, and the 1176 emulation to make happen what I need. I've recently just started using the Scheps Omni Channel, and that's cool, but I'm glad you gave me more insight to this strip. Appreciate you much brother.
You really helped me understand the plugin a whole lot better, just learning bout the signal path of the plugin helped a ton
Thank you! I love how you went over everything in order to recap - it definitely helped a ton. If you could use this on vocals as well that would be amazing. I appreciate the effort and work!
Thanks Kevin, this tutorial was very helpful! I just grabbed the Waves version of this plug for 29$ and am enjoying it soo far!
This one of the best tutorials ssl have ever watched , thanks to mixcoach....
From a teacher's perspective, this is bar-none the best tutorial I've seen based on one concept....REVIEW! It drives home the points with review and repetition. I wish all tutorials could be this concise, the world would be a better place lol. Thanks man. Liked & Subbed
This is great. I just bought this plugin, and I've been struggling to EQ my drumset. Then you gave an example with a kick at the end which I wasn't expecting. Thanks!
Very helpful. I saw a video talking about how much Dr. Dre loves the SSL board and I tried the plug-in for the first time using the kick drum preset and it was amazing. This may very well be my go-to setup for my mixes. This video helped it make a little more sense!!! Thank you!
This Vid changed my mixing technique forever!!!!! you are the one!! I wish all engineers would watch this vid!!
Thanks for taking the time to make this. Huge help!
this is the kind of tutorial that i need, with conviction and commitment that it will sound good ! thanks for this .
Thank you rets mej! Let me know if it works for you
Sir you saved my life.......your video on ssl on vocals 🙌 thank you
Excellent video explanation of SSL E channel! Thank you!
hey bro im from UK, i bought the SSL E- channel because i heard a lot of people talk about it. and i also bought the SSl Com too. Thanks for this video bro, I've just tried it on a project that im working on and it sounds so much better. Thanks a lot for this video bro, cos its helped me to go a step closer to my dream and goal of being a good mixing engineer.
Thank you so much! I always wanted to learn how to use Waves SSL E Channel. Liked & subscribed straight away!
Hi bud, this vid was really interesting and helpful. Thanks so much for sharing your experience with this plugin. Lot of love for the SSL!
Thank you Real Home Studio! Love this channel strip. Appreciate the comment.
This tutorial was freaking awesome sir! Thank you tons :)
Amazing tutorial. This trick has changed everything!
Great teaching mate :) Good well paced clear explanations..
I have it for quite long but never understand it properly until I watch this from you ☝🏻
Great work!!
Glad to hear that!
Thank you Kevin! Excellent tutorial!
Thanks for this. So pleased to have come across this tutorial. I’m now feeling less intimidated by this plugin...
WOW. I almost never leave a comment, but this was the most helpful thing I've seen in a while! I had decided (for myself after messing with it) that the Waves SSL E Channel was not for me, it was ok but none of the preset sounds grabbed me, and messing with it the weird switches (which I know are SUPPOSED to look like that old mix board) confused me and I really had no idea what they did. Why "split" would mean moving the EQ ahead of the compressor I dunno. So with lots of other tools available I forgot about this one. Recently, I became interested in transformers and that saturation click sound, and I actually am getting a hardware compressor and mic preamp with transformer inputs and outputs. BUT they're not here yet and looking around I found this. THANK YOU. What is best is, you show exactly how to get from A to Z, and you repeat it, because that's how you teach. This is the "sound" I've been searching for to use on drums etc. I've gotten close, but it takes me 5-7 plug-ins to get my snare track to be even close to having that little "click" or attack, which that old console and this plug-in do very well. Take care, I will be watching your other videos and learning.
Gracias Mr. Kevin, very clear and useful !
Absolutely a very good tutorial! Thanks!
Excellent tutorial and advice ...blessings
hey man your way of explaining some moves with this plugin is superior to others and i wanna thank ou for the info and guidance
Excellent explanation sir. Thank you!
So glad I found this channel! I need a mix coach.
Subbed!
Really good advices there, I will definitely try this and maybe give an update about it.
Thanks Kevin, I will give this a try!
that was solid. another skills in my arsenal... thank you sir !
Unbelievable method of explaining things in detail very clear and precise. None of this flash and fireworks look at me my way is the real way stuff. Plus you actually went over the the details twice showing a visual. What a great channel and resources you provide to a us beginners, ( 8 years ) level folks. I purchased this plugin a couple years ago slapped it on some tracks but seem tutorials on it but it was kind of confusing how the plugin works initially. I knew you could split the plugin into doing different things but didn’t exactly know how to swap the EQ first instead of compression .nonetheless I’m subscribing now . Thanks a lot Kevin appreciate what you do.
Thank you for such a kind reply Darrel
I've been using this trick since you taught me this back in 2013. It makes such a big difference on just about everything. Like you said in the video, this is awesome on vocals. I've used this on every mix I've done for our church's virtual services since March.
God Bless you
God Bless President Trump
brilliant explanation.....and am putting into place right now....and loving it..
Thank you Steve Blaque! Thanks for the reply!
I just bought the E channel strip from Waves, and my first impression is really good!
It's become my fav plugin recently, just makes things easier using one plugin for the EQ, COMP, Gating and Gain saves my CPU and is quicker if i need to go back and tweak anything later in the mix, love it haha
That compression tip is brilliant
man you changed my sound this works perfectly thanks very much God bless you
R.B
You explained that perfectly. It makes so much sense
great walkthrough, thanks! I now understand it better.
Thank you Kevin! This video developed my understanding of the plugin immensely. I'll reply to this comment of my record I'm using your technique on for you hear it in action.
sweet! would love that
THIS IS HOW TO USE THE SSL 4000 E. Love this. We just re-learned how to use our SSL; Filter and Compress to hear what you want to EQ... or not. And if you push the EQ pass -6dB on the compression meter, just readjust that Ratio knob until you're back to hitting between -3dB to -6dB again. For a bonus, try the Waves SSL with the NLS and/or the Plugin Alliance BX SSL 4K E plugin with their multiple channel modeling. Thanks for sharing this Kevin!
Short, sweet and direct to the point :D
could you do a tutorial for vocals using the SSL too?
Best tutorial on SSL by far!
Alex... what a compliment
Great tutorial. Thank you.
Wow!! Just found this. Good stuff Kevin. Thanks. 👍🏾
you are an exceptional teacher
Amazing! I tried it and it works! Thanks!
Great video brother... I love this particular one.. Also the G is excellent as well... especially on vocals.. Can you do a vocals video on both??? Stay Up Bro
Just used the SSL E and SSL EV channel strips in conjunction with the waves H. Comp on the Lead Guitar and Mains track. I like what the overall mix was - nice and warm sounding.
thank you, enjoyed this a lot!
Love you mr. From Brazil
Nice. Will definitely try it on my next mix. Thanks Kevin. Ronnie Davis Barbados.
thank You master ! for amazing knowledge , I am fire i bought this plugin :) ! very nice tutorial , regards
great job Kevin thank you
Thank you! Excellent explanation 😉
Very well explained. Thanks a lot.
I've been wanting a channel strip for ages. It will take some learning to figure out how to use it. Glad I got it though.
the dynamics tip on the threshold tip is so good. learned that from a few heroes of time.
Thank you Say What! I do this every mix!
@@MixCoach do you ever mess with the release time?
Thank you, it's very clear now 🙏
This was extremely helpful!
This advice is gold, man!
Gold... I love gold!
Great video, Kevin! Thanks
Yes! We need more kev!
thanks, this works quite well !
thank you for explaining those buttons!
Great Great tutorial ! Thank you !
I have SSL UF8, UF1 and UC1 I will try this out on my 4KB and channel strip 2. Thank for all the insight.
Thank you sooo much man ..Well done!!
This was really helpfull and interesting, thanks :)
Just bought, thank your for explanation
good job! very clear!
Very nice! Now all is clear =)
Very cool! thanks man!
Thank you very well said and done
This was helpful, thanks
Thanks a lot for this tip I would like to see it on vocals the waves ssl is a powerful tool and you're right small subtle changes is the best way for gain staging.
Thanks Kaiser!
Thanx ! Hello from France ! :):):)
This gate is incredible
So helpful thank you! :)
thk for this vid i always had trouble figuring out this console
I just bought mine for 35$ on sale. So happy
Fantastic tutorial here. My little suggestion would be, I tend to drop the output to make the tracks SSL output the same volume as the bypass volume. This way you're not getting swayed by "Louder" instead of "Better" and believe me... the ears get confused easy, especially after long mixing sessions.
Lower the output to match the bypassed signal then when you A-B (on/off) the effect you can hear the difference in tone without volume messing with your judgement.
One thing is for sure, there is no "RIGHT" way to mix. I always suggest trial and error but truly, I feel like we are past the age of insanely clipped volume on mixes. A good way to get volume in your mix without losing dynamics is truly just like this gentleman said... Small little changes will make your mixing life so much easier.
Learning compression, eq and to a lesser extent noise gate, are like an instrument... take some time to work with it.
Great video... Subbed.
Thank you Paul Menard! Good advice here. Thanks for the thoughtful comment
Best tutorial!
Excellent video!
Thank you very much!
Very cool tips! Just tried this and it gets you a great sound. I even tried that compressor tip on the mixbus and it sounded good. Just curious, I saw you did a vid a while back using Harrison Mixbus- do you still use that?
Thank you God bless you 🙏 💖
