- Every mixer eventually hits a wall, and the only way over it is "better instincts". Fortunately, you can cultivate your instincts with a few simple tweaks to your mindset and habits, and Kush Audio's Gregory Scott is all too happy to tell you what he thinks about that!

We want the "complementary frequencies" video!!! Great stuff as always Greg.
So do I, it's well overdue.
@@TheHouseofKushTV - It's been 13 hours already, Greg! Where is the video!?
Another super insightful video, thanks!
Want? More like need!!
Agreed-- and man, this channel is fantastic.
As a simple starting point you can use 1k as a mirror point.
I.e. if you boost @ 2k, cut @ 500 (1k X2 vs /2), boost 10k, cut 100 (1k x10 vs /10). make sense?
"mixing is like a game of wack-a-mole"
I love that analogy, it's soooo true! Man, you're to smooth for TH-cam 👊
Thats what i thought💯🎯💎
I'm here to absorb your wisdom.
As are we all, young Padawan.
The tip with using multiple EQs in a row... it's like using different grindstones to get finer and finer :)
Never thought of it that way, but.... yeah!
@@TheHouseofKushTV well done, fellas
Nowadays you can't get away with your lead unless it goes through 24-32 plugs when it hits the master bus. Just saying 🤗
@@wolfgangdevries127 as long as one of them is Autotune, the other 31 are all wasted...
I mix hybrid and only use minimal eq in the box (mostly for surgical stuff) or or unique to plugins stuff like Soothe. I think the difference in the “old way” of one analog eq on vocal in mix is that people used to have a lot more in the tracking chain….I know I do. I will commit EQ to taste in tracking, as well as compression and saturation. Nowadays, the majority of engineers just do clean capture and then a stack of plugins in mix. There’s no right way, but I sure have a lot of fun twisting knobs and making the record sound like the record starting at the tracking phase. I also have found when I’m mixing purely ITB, I have to use lots of plugins to get the sound I get mixing OTB with console and outboard….like more plugins than eqs and comps engaged in my typical OTB mix.
Hey Man....it's been a while.... where are you? How are you keeping? When's a new video ??????
the whack-a-mole comparison is so accurate. "complementary frequencies" video next, please! You're our best teacher, Gregory!
I'd love to have Gregory as a tutor. He makes everything so clear, but relatable at the same time.
You do! Subscribe to this channel and watch his videos 😉

Thanks Greg. Your content always changes my thinking pattern about mixing. Love.
Love the zen quality of these lessons. Kinda like learning in a way that used to be thought of as an intangible. 🕉
So generous with your knowledge - I always enjoy your videos - thank you for your wisdom!
Thanks man! You freakin rock. I highly enjoy your videos.
BEAUTIFUL. JUST BEAUTIFUL.
Fascinating. I do this instinctively but always have the thought “I should be able to do this with less tools and in less moves”. In reality, vocals I deal with for example need at least two instances of Eq. If I reach for another for let’s say just to add air, my brain starts to go into high alert lol. “Doing too much!”. This just freed me. Gem.
Most times if you have a good recording you barely have to make many adjustments. A good vocalist has very consistent volumes making compression be less pronounced to achieve a desirable outcome and EQ would be just to cut that little bit and sit it well in the mix. I've always heard to make small adjustments on everything
@@pedrosilvaproductions what if your style dictates big adjustments? not even style, the vibe of the song can justify almost every move you make to make it speak to the listener. sometimes it's lots of smaller moves, sometimes one big, bold, and proud😉
Do whatever you need to to make it sound “good” 🤗
Bro, the people want a new Kush segment.
once again, very well said and presented. The longer I do this hobby, it's more about this kind of "perspectives" and less about "trick's and plug in's"
Agreed, mindset is 98% of the battle. If you can hear a thing, and if you have an instinct about it, you'll eventually figure out what to do about it. Might take another 2 or 72 mixes to figure that out, but it's inevitable. If the mindset isn't right, though, it's hamster wheels all the way down!
@@TheHouseofKushTV as someone who’s been mixing for a while now and just recently come to the “mindset” I can wholeheartedly agree. Back then I was doing way too much over thinking and going backwards that I was never satisfied, but now I’m confident in my movements.
I am exactly there 😊 this advice comes in at the perfect time. Thank you 🙏🏼 so much! Keep’m coming 📽
I'm really appreciating where you come from with your approach. It took me years to get to this and your reiteration is wonderful! Thank you
keep them coming, love that tutorials, thanks!

you're the guy
Man I have just found your videos this week and can say you have absolutely opened my mind up to looking at music in many different ways! So glad I've stumbled upon your channel, the light you shine out into the world truly is so bright and the way you are able to speak of these concepts with compassion and finesse is truly a gift and a pleasure to experience. Thanks so much Gregory, looking forward to your next video!
Thank you Kush! You are in my head and I'm better for it :)
Some of the best advice I’ve heard. I love these introspective videos that move away from the technical and towards the philosophical. These types of videos help my mixing more than anything. Thanks for sharing!

These videos not only offer me new perspectives, but also reinforce things I already understand from new ones !
You are the coolest guy!! Thanks for all these tips
Well done, man. Thank you for the wisdom!
The most style and groove videos are laid down in the House of Kush. Even when I’m not currently recording, I get the bug after watching. Love it.
Beautiful
Man this put a lot of things into perspective. Thanks big time man
Your videos have really helped me. My mixes are sounding better each time nowadays, and I am never stressed about making decisions anymore. As you said, it takes time. I’ve been mixing for years and feel like you can always learn more no matter what level you are at. 🍻
Yup, Your always amaze me on how you hear things and the way you go about doing it. I know i'm getting better not just that i follow/understand want you saying but sometimes i Finishes your phase... which is nice for me to know that i'm thinking/MIX like a Pro ! :) Thank you again, I enjoy & learn something everytime. :) George
Just found this channel..love it..MORE
Oh yeah. Just home from work on a Friday evening here in Oz; keen to get back to the mix on my latest project this weekend; and there's a new Kush video up! Could life be any better?! Love your stuff Greg. Cheers!✌👍
thanks to you, i can enjoy mixing more and more as the beautiful artform that it can be. You showed me a fresh perspective on the craft. Real inspirational content. - thanks
glad to see you still doin your thing brother
My approach has always been multiple plug-ins doing mostly subtle and specific things, which I've often questioned as perhaps being overly particular about my "tools", but you're helping to silence that voice of doubt in my head. 🙏
Love it. The EQ seesaw!
AMAZING. I watched this video when you posted it and it went a little over my head. Just watched it again 6 months later after mixing a ton between now and then and it makes 100% sense now, so a few wisdom seeds must have gotten into my brain and begun to grow and transform my approach into a more holistic one like you said. This is a huge one. You are a goddamn guru - thank you so much for sharing this deep knowledge with us
Thank You !
Love from Quebec :)
I enjoy listening to you a lot. Nice view on things.
Man I love your videos. A hybrid of the science and the art of mixing. You have a knack for describing sound with adjectives that convey the timbre and texture of tones and really evoke vivid imagery in the minds' ear. Keep doing what you're doing, and we'll definitely keep coming back for more.
Very good, man! I'm gonna try all those tips!
Man I’ve been watching your channel for about 3 years and I’ve learned a lot of useful tricks that have helped me mix more consciously. Glad to see you’re still putting out very insightful content.
Thanks kush 🚀
