[@ItsKADO17]

yo this dude interview him without any knowledge about mixing

[@derendila]

he's asking so the audience knows too

[@user-th6rh8zp3t]

what does that do what is that

[@alphalax7747]

He just a fan cmon now

[@enochi777]

hakeem isn’t a fucking producer, he’s a personality that’s invested in the culture. if you wanna get that outta mike, interview em.

[@gaypeoplesuck420]

yeah and there is no problem with that. besides. he's just a fan of mike dean and he wants to interview him. there shouldnt be any more to it.

[@angtongteron199]

Am pretty sure It's not gang station. It's gain station. His own plugin

[@thenarrowtruth8480]

lmfao gang station

[@ThoughtFall-uo7uq]

I’m making gang station as we speak

[@oogamer5367]

"I feel that" no you don't lol

[@ripsticklord]

110%

[@kashcot]

no shit he’s an interviewer

[@ItsQueViolette]

LMFAOAOAOAO CHILLL

[@ItsQueViolette]

I read this comment before I finished the video and when I understood I started dying

[@klampers]

This interview could’ve been better if the interviewer knew what dean was talking about to make the convo alive.

[@marrrtin5599]

I mean you know those vsts? 😂

[@kjellbeats]

​@@marrrtin5599yea

[@bengsynthmusic]

It's not his fault Dean brought up an EQ plugin that isn't a household thing.

[@danny9732]

@@marrrtin5599yea. Even someone with basic knowledge about mixing could’ve kept the conversation going

[@terenceblack3724]

Damn. That's the most barebones way I heard anyone describe a Pultec eq.

[@swishmajorgotbeats]

Mike Dean is so chilled. Like this cat knows that he is a legends but he is so chilled about everything

[@daddydrozee]

he high as hell

[@biggamer4113]

Lmaoo hes faded beyond faded

[@psychjuice]

Broooo 😭😭😭😭😭

[@ricerice245]

i saw him doing mastering, he pretty much does the entire thing with different eqs , no fancy stuff

[@limittestresearchinstituti5801]

Mike is the fucking man dude 😂 “you know the blue one with the two knobs” 😂😂😂.
Proof u don’t need any fancy expensive shit

[@michael8122]

He literally uses fancy synthesizers lmao

[@5ivestar65]

⁠@@michael8122a lot of his synths have much cheaper VST versions. he has the analogue gear because 1. He likes playing and 2. He’s mf Mike Dean lmao, his synth studio has well over $400,000 worth of gear minimum. You could still get fairly close to his sound if you wanted to with way cheaper options. But he’s from a different era where those options didn’t exist.

[@jafaremir1403]

Surprise he didn’t mention his love for CLA Vocals

[@evan-vw7fr]

i mean he made gainstation(his own plugin) bc of how much he loved CLA Vocals.. its basically his own version of it

[@russcontact]

😂

[@gunnarmarks5754]

Stock plugins are great for keeping CPU down

[@brian_eye]

I love the EQ-7 on Pro Tools. One thing I wish they’d have is a spectrum analyzer

[@ravebourg]

TLDR: his EQ skills (and hearing) are his secret sauce

[@jkyotikhiphop4730]

So many people are mad that Interview guy doesn't know about mixing but it's okay if he didn't ask so many people wouldn't know what that Plugin does, Its Okay to not know everything, He is learning too and making so many people lear together

[@jiat_spacejams]

What does that do? Maybe this fellow wasn't the best man to interview Mike Dean 😂

[@terenceblack3724]

Then when Mike Dean explained it he was like, "Oh! That's what it is." Like it isn't one of the most emulated hardware units 😂.

[@ImBlackSnowTNA]

Mike dean reveals the secret sauce

[@darthkrator9366]

Yo chill it’s GainStation

[@cypherbeatszw]

I think he also used that EQ and wobble in his voice too

[@ntandosithebe8873]

If Omni sphere was a person

[@DonMadeItzw]

Mike Just being humble own every plug-in in the world but still uses stock plugins 🤣Legend 👑

[@Miltersen]

@musoai - Not gang station - gain station.

[@russcontact]

Yes it’s the skills not some magic tool. How many times do people need to hear that?

[@quantumo2099]

That’s one mean cat on those keys, believe that

[@mrmrbenjamins100]

Pretty sure he’s talking about the EQ-P1A at first

[@bennz9907]

It has to be, I have that one I'm surprised he uses that lol

[@user-ux1vj9vx7s]

It’s the same thing.

[@cualfuneri2510]

i have it too and im surprised that mike also uses it, truly a wonder plugin next to xfer ott

[@jm.Beats.]

Bro, Pultec EQ emulations are used for the "low end trick'. Very popular plugin. I'd assume he actually has the hardware tho. UAD, Waves, and T-Racks all have a pultec emulation.

[@Bayleybeats]

Same

[@ohh7117]

If you interview Mike Dean about engineering and not knowing what a Pultec EQ is, you might not be the right person for this. Pultec and LA2A are probably the most emulated Hardwares ever and the most significant tools for Mixing Engineers.

[@RTXRetroGo]

Mike dean is a hurt individual. Eyes tell the truth.

[@olibarahosasa1137]

This was probably after a doobie or two

[@lb2696]

He smoked himself stupid on a surface level.
