Less is more PART 2 !
In part 2, I start to treat the “ big food group “ busses instead of putting plugins across every track , working from Macro to Micro , and using some cool compressors from @KITPlugins and @UniversalAudio

Less Is More PART 1
Переглядів 216Рік тому
PART 1 of a series called LESS IS MORE. In this segment, I discuss the importance of the mix prep, getting a good blend with faders and pan pots first, how and WHY not to overuse plug ins / treating AUX busses vs each channel. I also set up the mix like a virtual console. I am featuring the brand new BBN73 plug in from KIT plug ins, just listen what this can do even WITHOUT any eq engaged ! Ple...

Awesome band I am playing drums for / producing at Forge Recording Studios ( www.forgerecording.com )
hello sr,let me ask .Sound quality from SSL mixer and SSL audio interface SSL2+ is same or different?
For those who don't have access to the 4000 console, try Alex B 4000 AI console, black and brown eq...it's nebula-based and sounds stellar...thank me later:)
Thanks for the VDO. how often does the console break down or needs repair and what is the most common issue? I'm considering buying one. Tsanks
Subscribed. I have a SSL 4040 being installed for the first time next month.
I swear routing is one of my weak points in audio engineering. I'm pretty slow when it comes to understanding signal chains.
Analogue...and as few plug-ins as possible!
Can't get enough of it. 🥺
To each his own, but you're skipping the mix bus by essentially using the channels like inserts and summing in-the-box. Also, the transformers are only involved in the mic preamps so not used in the channel line amp signal path. Still a great desk and certainly sounds different than all digital. Don't underestimate the importance/character of the SSL mixbus/summing! You can even upgrade your "26 cards" (LF and RF quad bus mix amp cards) if you wanted a more detailed modern sound off the desk.
Unfortunately, the 2 buss and the compressor need service , so I’m bypassing it while I wait for the repair . I plan on doing another video explaining the importance of that section. I misspoke about the transformer, great point about the summing !
@@RDSmix yea figured that, last 4000 i worked on extensively was the opposite, mix bus was fine but preamaps were shot....we had a room full of various BAE preamps and just used the SSL to mix and sum...that Cue bus usage was great, too gonna have to steal that one...lol...thanks for the vid
Transformer is only on the mic pre I believe.,
Actually simplified this whole process for me. It makes so much more sense now 😮
That’s great to hear ! Thanks for checking it out :)
Love this stuff. Analogue mixing is still the best way to go. Get a good sound and then mix it on analogue
Great Stuff! Were the other videos released? Looking forward to them.
Thanks Joey ! I’m actually releasing part 2 and another one this coming week. Thanks so much for watching ! Ron
Beautiful!
Smart workflow.... Print everything then finish ITB. Best of both worlds.
Thanks for checking it out , and definitely beats having to do recalls off the monochrome monitor haha 🤘
Analog porn!!!
Thanks for this part 1 video, very useful and informative and your description is well explained, thanks. I like your studio 😍. Waiting for the other parts of the video
I appreciate it, Tommaso ! I’ll be adding the other segments this week . I also just put another video up about simplifying mixing in the box. Thanks again for checking these out !
@@RDSmix many thanks for your effort
@@RDSmix i’ll wait also for other parts. In the meantime i’ll play the video you put up
Awesome! I do some of the same things when mixing on my console! I'm curious as to how do you handle effects printing of stems? Do you ever share effects between instruments/vocals, and if so I'm guessing you are printing all effects stems separate? Thanks!
Hey Seth, thanks so much for watching. Great question, as there are only 4 aux sends. I typically will do them in batches , as I tend to use separate reverbs for the drums and vocals , different delays for guitars and vocals . Worst case scenario it’s a second set of effects prints. The other scenario is when it’s a much larger mix than this where I have to reprint another 30-50 audio tracks. That’s when I will cook down big groups like backing vocals , multiple room mics etc down to stereo pairs.
Dope! I never knew you could monitor the eq without committing to tape. SSL we’re/are great innovators. Cool walk through Ron. Cheers. -Sean Bombz
Hey Sean ! Thanks man ! I know we are both die hard API guys , we should trade off talking about the 1608 !
@@RDSmix that would be great! I’m just now starting to mix using the ssl uc1 controller and the ssl plugs sound great. Nothing beats going through the console with outboard though. All client dependent of course.
I loved the 4000E at Cypher Sound KCMO, but I spent most of my time on 4000G or plus in Atlanta and LA. I always prefer the 4L's over the 9K's or newer Duality/AWS series.
All great desks, amazing how different they are . I teach at Montgomery Community College that has a 9000K that came from Atlanta . Wonder if that’s the same desk you worked on in Atlanta ?
Never ever see a center session on the left like that....
Good eye ! I’m also used to the vca’s being center channel as well. But since I’m not using the console automation it doesn’t matter much . Thanks for checking this out ! Ron
I think your console was a big ass console and was cut down
@@octavestud4687 you are probably right !
