Make sure "use in playlist" is selected at the top of the audiosuite plug-in window. When it's active, it should be highlighted blue. If that ever isn't on, when you click on "render'" it won't do anything. I hope that fixes it for you!

@ I got it 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

@ and thank you

@@TherealSEPT6IX you're welcome! So glad it worked for you.

@ ayeeeee 💯👍🥂

I'm so glad it was helpful! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.

Great point! I like to use the HOFA Blind Test plug-in, and push the up and down keys on the keyboard to the point where I don't know which is which and listen with my eyes closed 👍🏼

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment, it means a lot.

I'm confused...what is this in reference to?

?

WOW 🤣. It’s wild isn’t it?

i was considering to buy serrano vintage 87 or BU87i (orC version) but now im stuck with thinkig about this one for OVERHEADS or ROOOM Mics, what do you think is better for this?

I have not used the FET version yet but here is a link to hear some examples of both that I hope will be helpful: realgearonline.com/thread/16258/beesneez-bc12a-tube-fet-shootout

If I had to choose one out of that group, it would be the BC12a Tube. The tonal versatility of the 9 different pick up patterns makes it worth on anything!

@@SeawellStudios uff tube version is over my budget for now. I think i will get two BU87i matched and maybe sometimes later just get one BC12a..

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for taking the time to watch and share your thoughts, it's much appreciated.

Yeah the limiter mode on vocals is truly something special! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it's very much appreciated!

You're so welcome! I'm glad it was helpful.

I definitely will at some point! So far I've spent time with an Avalon 737, Manley Voxbox and the Powerstrip. I didn't really care for the 500 series Chandler Opto so that's really the only thing that's held me off from trying the cassette up to this point. Now...if they put their RS124 in a channelstrip 🔥🔥🔥

@@SeawellStudios the compressor in the cassette is awesome good :D It is two comps in one. Round ist a sort of LA3A maybe - good for Bass and Vocals. The Sharp Knee is super nice on drums! I've never had any better comp than this one and I guess that the 500 series is not the same unit as in the expensive cassette strip... And the EQ ist so good: Highs and Lows are only fixed but it'S like magic: They always fit on every track! Best unit I've ever bought in my life.

Great to know! Thanks so much for the info!

I love the Sta level as well! If you're asking about my acoustic panels, they are from GIK Acoustics 👍🏼

@@SeawellStudios Thank you! Keep up the good videos.

Thanks! I haven't had a chance to use any Hazelrigg gear but have heard good things.

Thank you Keith! I appreciate the continued support.

Thanks, I'm so glad you enjoyed the review! The Retro(powerstrip & revolver), the Chandler RS124 and the Highland Dynamics(BG1) all are great but are all different enough to where I don't think if you're happy with one, you could just switch to one of the others and not notice a difference. The Chandler is the thickest of the bunch to me, which is a good thing for how I normally like to use it(Vocals & Bass). In the finished version of "The Wanderer" which is the song used in this video, I did the processing shown in the video with the powerstrip and then followed it up with more aggressive compression with the Chandler RS124. The Revolver and BG1 are both a huge value considering they are two channels. I like the Revolver in particular because it(like the powerstrip) can be faster than what I can get out of the Chandler or BG1. For me, the RS124 style compression and box tone is my favorite of all so I'd love to have multiple channels and different manufacturer's takes on it all at the same time eventually. So, if you're starting with a RS124 sytle comp, I'd get the Chandler first just because it's THAT tone that we all love so much and what it can do on a vocal & bass in particular is just unmatched. Superfuse mode is also something that you'll definitely miss in other RS124 clones once you're used to using it. If you already have a Chandler, I'd take a strong look at the Revolver just to have something in that same tone family but that will come in handy for times where the Chandler may not quite have the speed you're looking for. I hope that helps!

@ Thanks for the insight.

Thanks, I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! I ended up keeping the RS124. I'd love to have the RS660 again at some point but didn't feel it was as versatile as the RS124. For instance, there are some vocals I tried it on that were a bit mid forward(2kish range) that just didn't seem to vibe with the RS660 at all. When it did work on a vocal though(particularly limiter mode) it was something I hadn't heard out of any other unit, it just jumped out of the speakers in the most awesome way! For overall versatility and something that just makes everything sound better, I'd go with the RS124. I hope that helps!

@@SeawellStudios Exactly the sort of answer I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time. Also, I pulled the trigger on the Audioscape Opto based on your review in particular. Thanks for all the cool content. Keep doing what you're doing - it's much appreciated! Best regards from Denmark.

Are you getting any kind of error message when your playback stops?

​@@SeawellStudiosplease delete my comment. I did not have your specific issue and I should have clarified it. Mine just keeps stopping. I had a session with 100 tracks and a ton of plugins. It worked perfect for years. I made inactive 25 tracks and deleted 40 plugins and still the same result. I even cranked up my sampke rate to 2048 in playback engine.

Thank you btw!

So both boxes have a good bit of box tone with minimal compression. I'm fine with that because when I'm reaching for hardware, I want to have something fairly significant. If I want something cleaner, I can just use a good plug-in. Both are quite versatile with the compression and limiting modes of the RS660 and the standard/superfuse mode of the RS124. The RS124 in particular has this interesting effect that even when compressing 10-15 dB, it can still sound quite transparent but in the most beautiful way. The RS124 has my favorite box tone out of any compressor. One of my favorite uses of the RS124 is to just tickle the meter a bit on acoustic guitar or vocals in particular. So yes, even at very low levels of compression you can get something quite compelling out of these units(the RS124 in particular). I hope that helps answer your question!

Ah...you made my day!!!

Thanks so much! The change in snare tone at times is probably just places where the drums were comped with a different take if I had to guess. It is kind of cool how it worked out that way.

@@SeawellStudios yeah it definitely sounds cool

Good ears! That’s exactly what’s happening here. I preferred the choruses from the first round of drum takes and most of everything else was from from the second round. Different takes from different days and I believe the snare was intentionally tuned differently to match the song from the second round.

Awesome Thx for the info

Indeed! Which plug-in are you using? Acustica Smoke?

@@SeawellStudios yep...Smoke.

Cool, yeah the EQ is great! Can't say the same for the compressor unfortunately haha. I think Tim Petherick's Vari Level is a much better Sta Level plug-in.

The 2A3 is sublime! I’ve used it to mix acoustic and vocals and have needed nothing else.

Thank you so much, I hope you enjoy it!

I appreciate your kind words about the material! The Sta Level is particularly great on bass. Bass and vocals it just seems to be made for.

You're welcome! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. I unfortunately did not have the Stam SA-47 and SA-87T at the same time. I hope the demo I did of each can offer some insight though!

Like any pair of headphones or even studio monitors, you need to spend time with them to learn how to work on them. If you do that, you won't have low end translation problems. Having said that, I don't enjoy or recommend mixing 100% on headphones(even with something like Slate VSX) unless you're in a situation where you absolutely have to. Finishing up on monitors is always my preferred method. It's just nice having something like the Focals to get started when you're traveling, etc..

​@@SeawellStudiosyes 100 percent. It's a good pair of headphones but only for casual use. Casual music making. Within this price point I would never ever recommend these over mx50.

They are both professional tools, just different flavors. I don’t much care for the MX50. Anyway, use what you like 👍🏻. There are plenty of happy Focal users.

RS124. It’s thicker to me which is what I’m looking for in hardware. BG1 is awesome but is a little cleaner and more hifi than the RS124 to my ears. Also, superfuse mode is something none of the other RS124 clones have implemented so that also sets the RS124 apart to me.

@ ok thanks! Haven’t had the opportunity to demo the bg1 so that helps me make a decision:)

I’m so glad the video was helpful! Thanks for letting me know.

Thank you so much, that's very kind of you! I plan to do a more formal studio tour video at some point so just let me know if there's anything else you'd like to see covered in that.

To be fair though the AI is going to have that same volume difference against a vintage Neumann U87i. The U87ai is a hot mic!

Man, sorry to hear that! I'd reach out to iLok support and see if they can do anything further to help sort it out. I hope so! Thanks so much for the sub!

LOL! These videos usually take me multiple days to complete so I have to go deep into the hoodie locker 🤣. I'm so glad you enjoyed the review! I truly appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment.

That's a great description of vari mu on vocals! It's just the best!

Hey man thanks for checking on me, that means a lot! It has been a very long road to recovery but I'm doing better and I've got some videos coming up over the next month or two that I think are going to be my best on the channel yet! I truly appreciate everyone that has watched my past videos and chatted with me while I haven't been able to do much on here over the past year. The support and interaction with everyone has meant so much to me. Thank you 👊🏼

I’m so glad the video was helpful for you!

In limiter mode I think it would be.

I've never done anything like that. I'm flattered you'd ask! Maybe a live Q&A on the channel would be good sometime soon?

@ totally yeah! Keep us posted about that please.

I bet it would be great for that! Particularly limiter mode. Let me know what you think once you get a chance to try one.

@@SeawellStudios ok cool by the way I just tried the new elysia skulpter mpreesor qube up against my ams Neve 1073 in the ams Neve genesys black console Ilooking for something different but there's no comparing the 2 the console of course is on a whole nother level

@@SeawellStudiosalso I think I might purchase the dynamic card for the console

When the screen has a dark overlay & says “bypassed” in the top left corner the EQs are bypassed.
