I love u guys. I am new at producing. I sing, write, am a musician, and am in process of creating, mixing and mastering my own music. Devvon your videos have helped me so much. I think u are a dope artist.
This podcast is my go to for the audio conversation space. I love the ideas and opinions that come out do this show. Also, LJ is running the superior DAW 👑🤣
Feels great to know that I know something extra that my no. 1 teacher Devvon doesn't know. We have learned a lot from you and we are willing to payback by teaching you how to produce in FL 21 for free. Payback time 😅.. Be patient with FL please. You will love it!!
"Your opinion doesn't matter" - LJ 7:35 . Bro, i laughed so hard that i was down on the ground!😂😂 Freaking love these podcasts man!❤ You guys are crazy!🔥
At the start of the video it looks like the social icons didn't load or were missing in Premiere Pro, so it shows that preview thing. Just something to look out for with y'all edits. Love the podcast! Keep em coming
Studio Project C1 is a dope mic!! I've been using it since 2007 at my home studio. I don't think they make it anymore. The C1 going into an ART Tube MP recording into Cool Edit Pro 2.1 is legendary to me!
7:27 you're definitely just used to the pro tools workflow man cause back when i first started producing i had to take a whole day to learn how get the sound working but instantly made a beat in FL
I was taught if you take your car to a mechanics with better knowledge of fixing cars on any car with a cheaper price over a newer mechanic who just graduated and charging a higher price for higher price vehicles which he only been taught to fix on you will always get the best and better service rather spending a lot of money trying to keep up with what someone says is good for you and that you should get, same with Mics or any studio equipment. Know your sound and what you are going for with your music.
Devvon trippin FL is goated for production. Adding plugins can be tedious but once you have, the organization options for the plugin menu are solid. I love PT for tracking/mixing tho. And the AT2020 is never goin anywhere lol. That mic is a right of passage.
@@primee5730 I don't use the AT2020 or have one anymore. I just meant a lot of ppl will lol. I use the TLM 102 right now but I heard good things of Aston. Might have to add them to the collection. They look nice too 💯
I'm a Pro tool user because I've worked with it the longest alone side Reason for Beats from the first version then tried Logic which was fine but I Found my Favorite Workflow in a DAW I slept on and That was Ableton. It's Dope. But Since the New Pro tools update, ive been using only Pro Tools because they sharpened Up there Production Side. Now I can do all that I was using Ableton For in Pro Tools My Primary Recording Source.
been making music for 16 years just got used to fl 4 yrs ago and im in love but it took me a while it was just was not what I was used to and it was weird as hell at first but once I got used to it I rarely use anything else now for production
I switched from Pro Tools to FL. I bought the perpetual version of Protools but then realized I was gonna have to pay for all the yearly updates; AND all the plugins the monthly subscribers were getting I did not get. Being a monthly user has way more perks than someone who tries to buy it outright. Part of me switched out of sheer principle.
On the dj convo this is the dj software to DAW comparison from most popular to least regarded Serato is the protools of djing undeniable industry standard Ableton is the logic. Extremely intuitive Traktor is the cubase. Solid and reliable Virtual dj is the FlStudio. Arguably the most creative but underrated in the dj community. It literally has the same struggle to be really be considered a professional tool yet it does everything and more. That's my non biased synopsis as being both producer and dj. I use studio one btw lol.
The ultimate hood setup I've ever had: PC with no external audio interface, with a desktop usb mic(the one that looks like a big ass pen)-I would put a clean sock on it as a pop filter because the plosives were OD LOL. And I had regular ass computer speakers(the 2.1 setup) with the 2 speakers and the sub. The DAW I was using at the time was Adobe Audition(Cool Edit Pro) lol. Alternative setup I had when I first got a Macbook Pro(2006-2007 All aluminum body lol) with out having an audio interface or mic was just use the onboard mic on the laptop itself lol. Crazy times.
I got the BLUE BABY BOTTLE best 400 i've spent ever. this mic is CRAZY GOOD. ima grab the l22 next, my homie got one and it is INSANE (and glows in the dark lol).
Ok I have an extremely important question. So after I record and mix my song I like to group everything and turn them down for head room so when I print, I can take that print to master it. Do you include the parallel compression along with the sends when turning everything down. Or do you leave the parallel compression alone and turn down the vocals, beat and the delay sends? I need to know. It's been messing with me.
I personally print everything. I send the parallels and fx into an audio track(stereo of course) and record it. Then disable and mute the tracks with the fx. Then send everything into a mix bus and print to stereo track
@@noisepollutionmuzic oh, my bad got you. Don't turn anything down individually. Just turn down the bus you're printing from. I've also learned that even if my master bus is clipped during printing it doesn't affect the print. You can also turn off your master output(I can in Studio One at least) so it won't psyche you out
@@nobodyspecialmusic No I group them and turn them down until they hit at least 18 LUFS. I was just wondering if there was a parallel compression send if it shouldn't be touched when turning everything down or what
There’s no right way to route your busses. It’s preference. But I definitely have my 2 cents on it. Some ppl route their parallel comp to an FX bus, and some ppl route it to their vox bus. Some ppl route it straight to their mix bus. I personally think you should route your parallel comp to your vox bus. I go as far to create a bus that has just my vox and parallel, because I want to route that to my verb and delay sends, rather than routing the signal from the vox pre parallel comp to my verb and delay sends. Whether or not you wanna route it to sub bus prior to summing all your vox or not, you should route your parallel comp to your vox bus, if you’re using the bus to level the fader. Imagine if you turned the volume on your vox bus all the way down. You wouldn’t hear the vox at all. You’d only hear the parallel comp. So you’re completely changing the blend between your vox and parallel comp. When you set the level of the send to your parallel comp, your effectively using it like a mix knob to blend your vox and parallel comp. So you don’t wanna then turn down just the vox without turning down the parallel and equal amount. So that’s why you should sum them into a bus. Imo, you should sum just those 2 signals together into a bus prior to even summing all your vox into a vox bus.
Thenatan Devil saturation plugin is fire also like the Tape Piano but I agree the rest of the bundle is kind of mid but for like $20 it ain’t that bad….
Ya'll doing the DAW God's work! Never miss an episode! If I don't win the EQ I'm buying either way haha that price is nothing for what you get. It's not just an Eq. New slogan lol P.s #Flgang!
Ya'll funny man.. I can't lie, I like the NT-1 bro.. Great content fellas.. I wish there was a way to record with compression going into Logic with out latency.. Ohhhhh, topic guys.. lol.. Do you record with compression or no going into your DAW?
I think the SM7 has to stay because it's a staple mic that most of us can actually afford. Also Priuses get the best mileage so I get what you meant but that made me laugh because a mic compared to a Prius means it would give you more longevity imo
PRO TOOLS 4LIFE !!!! Devon can we PLEASE get a PRE AMP+ EQ Review between NEVE1073 & AVALON VT-737🙏🙏🙏 WE Can Throw in th MANLEY TOO! PLEASE🙏🙏🙏 Or UAD Pluggins vs. SLATE DIGITAL!! & Mr. FL GOBLIN, Lmao I had the same problem upgrading to the M1. SHyt Crazy but we got it done! & MOJAVE 300 Or Sony MICs are a go to for me!!
@@nobodyspecialmusic look at a picture of Acid pro 2-4 and Acid pro now, and visually it just looks like the added a dark theme. Sony added important things like VST support, and a piano roll to the MIDI, but the core of the saw visually and functionally has been there since 2.0.

London uses Ableton and FL gang that man barely uses it other then for flipping samples.
Don't forget lord finesse 😉
Also Decap
@@LAVA422 Damn, forgot about Decap. I'm subscribed to his twitch too. Haha
@@ecorduna haha! Good vibes 😎
My hood setup was a Rockband USB Mic, GarageBand and the school macbooks they gave us
Studio one in the building 😎🔥
Great discussion, great debates, great energy, great length, great podcast! Much Love!
Also as someone who is windows based, FL on Mac has some annoying bugs I didn't even know was possible
Ludwig Goransson uses Ableton
i always feel so seen during these episodes!! i appreciate y’all
I love u guys. I am new at producing. I sing, write, am a musician, and am in process of creating, mixing and mastering my own music. Devvon your videos have helped me so much. I think u are a dope artist.
This podcast is my go to for the audio conversation space. I love the ideas and opinions that come out do this show. Also, LJ is running the superior DAW 👑🤣
Bro totally agree
Hey Devvon all you have to do is import the protools key commands in Studio one then you'll be at home and it'll be an easy transition. All Love 💪🏾💯
I was gonna make a comment saying the rode nt1a deserves more praise but yall pulled through ❤️
My mixes been even crazier since watching this pod. Day 1 fan here.
Sony PS2 had Singstar, which had a dynamic mic with mini jack that connected to a USB Interface and I recorded into FL Studio, that was my hood rig
Lmao it was Rockband for me
LJ really defined one of my first setups with the mxl 67 😂
How yall leave out the Blue Bluebird for hood mics? 😂
Blue Bird was my upgrade from hood mics 😂
@@407movementBeats 😆 I feel you
Nah fr tho
Need that warm audio and Sony c80 review soon
You guys should give away one of your dope templates 💯
Me & Courtney had the same beginnings; I started with a Band Hero USB Mic and Audacity 🤣 don’t clown the man!!!
Rockband mic and Acid Pro here 💪🏿
really enjoying these podcasts, keep it up fellas
Feels great to know that I know something extra that my no. 1 teacher Devvon doesn't know. We have learned a lot from you and we are willing to payback by teaching you how to produce in FL 21 for free. Payback time 😅..

Frfr.....I would choose Lauten Audio Atlantis and Telefunken 251 over the U87 and C800 🤷🏾♂️
Love yalls content. Thanks for bringing the heat ALWAYS!
S/o to waves plugins for allowing us to build collections at such an amazing price for the longest
7:27 you're definitely just used to the pro tools workflow man cause back when i first started producing i had to take a whole day to learn how get the sound working but instantly made a beat in FL
this podcast is phenomenal.
Yes it’s Dope! ❤
Facts
Ableton: Skrillex, Deadmau5, London, Kenny, DJ DAJHI, Elite, etc
How can you have this convo without mentioning the Telefunken 251 ?!?!
Unrelated topic what what do think about rumor that all apple streams will have to be in mix atmos .
Blue “Bluebird” = King of hood mics
AT2020🔥😂😂I swear everyone has that mic
can't wait for devvon to get Ableton😂using that daw😂it's like perfoming a heart surgery
FL gang🤝
Illangelo (THE WEEKND!!!) uses Abelton… watching him work is the one thing that made me question PT
I was taught if you take your car to a mechanics with better knowledge of fixing cars on any car with a cheaper price over a newer mechanic who just graduated and charging a higher price for higher price vehicles which he only been taught to fix on you will always get the best and better service rather spending a lot of money trying to keep up with what someone says is good for you and that you should get, same with Mics or any studio equipment.

I sold mine once I heard the Aston Spirit... Best decision I ever made, other than getting the ISA One
@@primee5730 I don't use the AT2020 or have one anymore. I just meant a lot of ppl will lol. I use the TLM 102 right now but I heard good things of Aston. Might have to add them to the collection. They look nice too 💯
i gotta try Pro-Tools at some point (logic got me hooked tho)
I'm a Pro tool user because I've worked with it the longest alone side Reason for Beats from the first version then tried Logic which was fine but I Found my Favorite Workflow in a DAW I slept on and That was Ableton.

Def try out FL. 21 made some big changes.
Yall guys are great! Keep going!
been making music for 16 years just got used to fl 4 yrs ago and im in love but it took me a while it was just was not what I was used to and it was weird as hell at first but once I got used to it I rarely use anything else now for production
11:01 . bro said we tried to ease you in there and you jumped . i had to rewind that 10 times
WOAAAAH CHILL ON VDJ SON 10:32
I switched from Pro Tools to FL. I bought the perpetual version of Protools but then realized I was gonna have to pay for all the yearly updates; AND all the plugins the monthly subscribers were getting I did not get. Being a monthly user has way more perks than someone who tries to buy it outright.
Part of me switched out of sheer principle.
On the dj convo this is the dj software to DAW comparison from most popular to least regarded
Serato is the protools of djing undeniable industry standard
Ableton is the logic. Extremely intuitive
Traktor is the cubase. Solid and reliable
Virtual dj is the FlStudio. Arguably the most creative but underrated in the dj community. It literally has the same struggle to be really be considered a professional tool yet it does everything and more.
That's my non biased synopsis as being both producer and dj. I use studio one btw lol.
Keep in mind the parallel compression is a send as well.
Studio one user waiting for the shine we deserve! Lol
C-800G and U47. Best mics and if you have those 2 you’re done for good.
Facts. Maybe a 251 too.
The ultimate hood setup I've ever had: PC with no external audio interface, with a desktop usb mic(the one that looks like a big ass pen)-I would put a clean sock on it as a pop filter because the plosives were OD LOL.

At2020 go hard 😂😂😂
I got the BLUE BABY BOTTLE best 400 i've spent ever. this mic is CRAZY GOOD. ima grab the l22 next, my homie got one and it is INSANE (and glows in the dark lol).
Yo bro i bought one oh your recording templates but how do I get to plugins i dont see then?
I distinctly remember Ableton blowing up once peeps saw Skrillex using it
greetings from Germany .... shout out to FL GANG #birdcall
Decap, Kaelin Ellis, Oh Gosh Leotus, Dr Dre, Skrillex, Deadmau5,Kshmr, God’s Plan -Drake was made in Ableton.

8:21 Thats the same way I feel about FL's gui 😂😂😂
Wild Card! I’d go with the Manley Reference cause it’s basically the perfect balance of the c800 and the Neuman
Still waiting for yall to mention the c414

Somebody get Devvon a Townsend L22 so he can go ahead and sell that slate mic lol

Sony c800 gave us 2001 sonically the best album in rap
Dang Adobe did yall dirty lmao
Townsend 251 emulation 🔥🔥🔥
Logic/FL & Shure combo let’s gooooo
The blue kiwi can compete with any mic! I stamp it
Say y'all, Neumann got an interface called the MT 48. This is the best dam interface I have seen look wise. But too much for my pocket. lol
The modern u87ai is the reissue of the vintage u87
Aw man the banners are missing the logo
I think the SM7 has to stay because it's a staple mic that most of us can actually afford. Also Priuses get the best mileage so I get what you meant but that made me laugh because a mic compared to a Prius means it would give you more longevity imo
For me it’s too dark sounding so I’d use it for BGV and harmonies. But I’ll record leads with a condenser mic.

I hate the AT2020 too lol. I was saying "get rid of it" as soon as it was brought up
Keep Doing your thing
As a new Audio Engineer in this space I’ve got to say FL and Logic are the easiest DAWs to understand. Pro Tools gave me a headache.
The GOAT DAW finally got a shoutout! Acid Pro gang! I might be 1 deep in this gang but I love it!
I will say, to support your anti-Sony argument, Sony didn’t give us Acid Pro. Sonic Foundry did and then Sony bought it and almost killed it.
@@GastorAlmonte really was a different daw before Sony bought it
@@nobodyspecialmusic look at a picture of Acid pro 2-4 and Acid pro now, and visually it just looks like the added a dark theme. Sony added important things like VST support, and a piano roll to the MIDI, but the core of the saw visually and functionally has been there since 2.0.
As a FL user I can firmly say it takes too many clicks to get simple stuff done.
HAHA this had me cracking up!
90% of my production is thru the VST Korg Trition/Legacy😂
My favorite vst all time
Tone Stith does everything in ableton * the problem solvers use it too .
At2035 or the AKG P420 Mxl 990 are the king of budget mics
And PlayStation Music Generator was the 🐐
Akai MPC in the building
Devvon is gonna try ableton and hate the fact that he loves it 😂😂
Great podcast
Mxl990 was traaaaaaaaash bro. I hated that mic. It was soooo bright. Also, y’all should’ve put the Blue Baby Bottle in the mix
The Mike Joly Hulk versiom of that MXL was much much better. U47 cap I believe.
