thank you so much, just spent a couple hours applying this and finally was able to hear the snare with the sound I have in my head! amazing tutorial, thnk you MR PENSADO
this is great. I love this. The tips and advice and general thoughts you give is very well suited for ANY genre. Be it Trance, Hardcore, Rock, Punk, Hip Hop or anything, this is very very good advice. Thanks!
Yeah! Great demonstration. I use this technique a lot, but Dave's demonstration made it so clear and obvious, and his choice of compressor and EQ has given me a few pointers - Stillwell audio do a great DBX-style plug-in that is pretty economical, and it is an under-used plug-in in my selection, so next mix, I'm gonna try to USE IT!
Love this, trying to get upfront CRACKY snares. So would you route both these snare tracks to a single "snare buss"? If so, is that where you would put your EQ?
great tips, thanks, do you have any ITL that tell how you set up our session, beside bass, drums, guitars, keys, vocals, where do they go?..like sub mix..master, sub master..not sure what is best routing and why..what is the final piece in the chain
Just for clarification, does the d3 works as a compressor+limiter at the same time? I can never crank up my parallel kick track that much, the transients are killing me!
It's set to an automatic time, so it has different thresholds that change the release time. So for example, .5ms over 10 db, 20 ms over 20 db, 100ms over 30db etc.
MORE GOOD STUFF as if you are an artist, then the more you know, the better to help you shape your own sounds and desired end results. More vids pop up after this to watch and learn for hours. Do an "ADD TO" a playlist to keep for reference.
In pop or rock, that's probably true. IMO, you don't need to compress crunch guitars; they are already compressed. Which is one of the reasons they sound so great. This is not true of jazz, classical, broadway, cinema music though.

Thanks for spendin so much time into these videos, they're priceless!
That Pultec EQ is my all time favorite plugin by far.

Forever grateful for the knowledge
Thank you for your videos. They are some of the most helpful videos out here. Dave is my Idol!!!!!!
"We all know the importance of dynamics in music" I completely agree.
I love watching ITL, awesome tipps and tricks!
BRILLIANT!!!! Just changed my mixing life!
I'm curious why the 160XT (Focusrite) for the kick & 160 VU (UAD) for the snare?
Love this, trying to get upfront CRACKY snares. So would you route both these snare tracks to a single "snare buss"? If so, is that where you would put your EQ?
so when you mix it's a common thing to put a compressor on almost every single track?
Are there ever any phasing/cancellation ?

When hes doing kick with and without it sounds exactly the same to me ?
Hey David! Can you tell us why do you think about your NS10 and when do you check your mixes there?
thanks!
“Mo Betta makes it Mo Betta” Mo Betta Blues movie Spike Lee. Great vid
From of Chile, thanks Dave..
thank you Dave!
the 160 is just a nasty monster...
3:03 subtle... might muddy a mix though
I dont understand the release times. I understand the attack but what does 1 sec/ 125 db mean? Every 125 of threshold?
It's set to an automatic time, so it has different thresholds that change the release time. So for example, .5ms over 10 db, 20 ms over 20 db, 100ms over 30db etc.
Yes, most tracks or send a group to one for eg the drums
