Absolutely! I feel the same way about Anthony Maranelli's new channel. He most notably was involved in the making of MJ's Thriller album and has been cranking out the videos from his home studio where he goes into incredible detail about the sounds and has even debunked some myths that have been flying around the internet for years about certain songs...I'm just ecstatic that so many of these people are opening their doors and giving us the information we always wanted. Every recording enthusiast knows who Bob Clearmountain is by now, but he was just tucked away in recording studios during his heyday. They know how important it is to document all that musical magic before they are all gone. With all the craziness going on all over the world as things change at the speed of light, videos like these remind me that we still have good things all around us, it is just hard to shake the negativity. Nothing better than nerding out to a video where Bob talks about mixing one of the most prolific songs of that era like he's just preparing dinner or something... I am here for all of this....GIVE ME MORE
Kindly thank Bob Clearmountain on behalf of all the music nerds who fucking loved this video. His sharing the mix and his knowledge was literally incredible. & thanks to you guys. You're enthusiasm reminds me that there's more like me.
Gated snare was created by Hugh Padgham while recording Phil Collins playing drums for Peter Gabriel's third album. The gated snare sound actually came from the room microphone(which was gated. It was a happy accident. Bob Clearmountain has done amazing things and is a very fast mixer(rather like Stephen W. Tayler), but he wasn't the first to come up with gated snare. Cheers, Alan Tomlinson
A big lesson here is how good the raw tracks are. The performances are all there and the sounds are top of the line. Then when someone with talent like Bob Clearmountain gets ahold of it, all that potential can unfold and open up. He’s not spending time trying to turn an uninspired recording into gold.
I remember reading an Andy Summers interview decades ago and he touched on this quite beautifully. When they asked him how much processing/effects he uses to make a riff sound better he said it doesn't work like that because no matter how much you polish a turd you're still left with a shiny turd.
Incredible. I never knew how much went into mixing and what a profound effect it has on a song. I always thought " Born in the USA" was a relatively rough cut song. Boy was I wrong. The mixer really doesn't get enough credit for the feel of an iconic song. Great video guys
Ok. This is an AMAZING series. Please try and do more if these. What’s so cool about this particular one is that the song and Bruce’s mojo totally reign supreme. That out of tune guitar??!! The dry vox sung live into a 58?!?! Just goes to show you that there’s perfection in the imperfection. If you’ve got lightning in a bottle - just hit record and share it everywhere.
let's be honest. this is the best mix breakdown ever. they actually ask relevant questions, and not get satisfied with answers like "i go with the feel".
Yet, the guys who say they 'go with the feel' are the ones who have created a piece of art that has sold in its millions. A fact that belies you kids who think 'the tech' is what's important. Plus, you clearly haven't seen too many mix breakdowns if you think this is the 'best ever'. LOL.
@@BoutYoungAnnaLee I think you are overreacting. He's saying it helps the viewer by digging a little deeper beyond just the abstract way that a Bob Clearmountain mixes a song. He's in no way criticizing Bob's process or implying he's anything except a master at his craft.
Holy crap - this is a Master class! Wow! This dude is brilliant, and deserving of you guys "geeking out". I'm geeking out watching it. My father dropped out of school in 69, got arrested for having pot, and was offered a choice of jail or the Army. My grandparents had to sign for him, as he was 17. This great song is his life - RIP
The Yamaha "CS-somethin" is the CS-80. Absolutely legendary synthesizer which has such a recognizable and iconic sound. It adds so much depth to this song's sonic power. Peeling away the layers like they did here really helps to show how complex this song is.
A yamaha cs80 a piano and a Hammond. Would love to be a roadie on that tour . Wonder if it was the same guys that put that piano I the woods for Brian Adams??
Bob shows why he's one of the best mixers. His ears tell him what the mix needs. Love his modesty too. He said that the song just about mixed itself because the band is used to playing together on stage. So they naturally are adjusting their playing and dynamics. They're listening to each other. A mark of a great band.
Damn. Bob is just so amazing. He’s so humble and respectful of the music. He makes so many GREAT points in this video that apply to any mix that you might do. The biggest thing I want to stress about what he says is to start a mix by listening to the tracks all up and then listen through the individual tracks as “characters”. You make much better choices, in my opinion, when you do that instead of starting the mix with the kick drum….. he’s just such a talent.
This is exactly the type of content that should be presented more often on UA-cam. The audio engineering industry/history, and it's iconic people, have long been in the dark and they need to be better presented/recognised in the main stream media, not only for the incredible educational value such content has, but to actually acknowledge and shed more light on the print those legendary producers and engineers had on shaping the history of music. This is such a great and a unique episode indeed .. keep the good stuff coming our way!!
I used to be very skeptical of 57s and 58s as main studio vocal mics for their dirty nature but they work perfectly for gritty rock vocals. It sounds amazing on my own vocals, better than condensers when it comes to heavy songs.
I think the key point (and what is wrong with modern recordings) is that we need to let the performers perform and just record the performance. The gentleman on the left said (paraphrasing) “keyboard made a mistake, redo the performance”. Bob said “there is no mistake”. That’s the master level piece of advice. Get out of the way of the performance. Thanks for sharing!! Great video!!
Slight mistakes make music human. I've found myself moving the odd note or two on the piano roll because I've played too perfectly sometimes, so I get this.
I've been in his house. Got to go in 2013. Super gracious host. That console is the size of a boat. He was mixing something with Bruce and the Rolling Stones live. Seeing those meters move and hearing Bruce, Mick and Richards guitar move them is an experience I will never forget. One of the most beautiful home studios I've had the pleasure to visit.
Excellent! A rare opportunity to see a master like Bob Clearmountain dissect a mix of such an iconic song. Amazing to hear all the parts, mistakes and all, mixed together to create a masterpiece. Great series!
BC, a mythical multitrack, an SSL4000, what we could possibly want more! I particularly love the simplicity, the humility of BC, it's always a lesson to see such an important person being so humble
Wow this is mesmerizing stuff. You guys are doing an important thing documenting these old masters because in twenty years they will be all gone. Keep it up!
Love Bob talking about his process just basically being "yeah.... I just mix it" Yeah, he got more specific once you poked him a bit, but there's something beautiful about a master just working their craft
This is nuts, I know next to NOTHING about mixing or really any of this technical stuff, but it's honestly just awesome to see any of this stuff. To be able to re-mix something to sound nearly identical to the original, though "nearly" is an understatement.
Just an FYI : Phil Collins and producer Hugh Padgham pioneered/invented the gated reverb drum sound. "In The Air Tonight" was one of the first examples if not THE first example of it....you guy should actually do an episode with Hugh Padgham. That would be sick, much like this episode. This was so killer and very informative.
It was indeed Hugh Padgham and Phil Collins who came up with the gated reverb effect but they were working on Peter Gabriel's PG3/Melt album, specifically on the track 'Intruder'. They replicated the effect on 'In the Air Tonight' later that same year.
@@gcoudert Yep. They discovered the sound by accident and loved it, and Gabriel asked Collins to give him 5 minutes of that initial beat that eventually became Intruder.
YEEEESSS! Please more stuff like this. Really loved to see more mixing analysis of legendary songs with legendary peeps! Also have you listened to Talk Talk stuff? How they made first records super poppy and then went straight art/experimental? The Rainbow from Spirit of Eden is a very good example. Like the weird shaker stereo in chorus is fucking fascinating! Anyway thank you guys for this! Love this show!
I mean this video is just great. The giddiness of you guys with Clearmountain and to hear all the raw tracks! I mean listening to those sloppy keyboards should teach us all a TON about recording, it's not perfection, it's ALL feel!!!
‘Born in the USA’ was one of those songs that knocked me off my feet the first time I heard it. Immediate goosebumps. I’ve tried to do a cover of it, but it’s impossible to capture the magic of this incredible song (at least for me). Truly lightning in a bottle. It was a privilege watching this video. Thanks guys 🙏🏼
Bob is the GOAT! The mixer’s mixer, an inspiration to so many and a humble gentleman to boot. Amazing episode! (and thanks for the name check - an honor!)
There's such a valuable lesson for new mixers to be learned @ 14:13. I've definitely been guilty of over-analyzing trivial details that don't actually matter, so it's awesome to hear a living legend say that they've never really thought about those things. He's just using his ears and making things sound good.
Brilliant. It was an homage to "Street Fighting Man" all along. The grinding guitar and added percussion so cool. Shakers are a totally Jimmy Miller move.
In 1984 a band called Scritti Politti put out a song “Perfect Way”. Amazing music for 1984…..check it out ? This is blowing me away! You guys are too hip😎 Thank you for showing us all that you do at the pro level.
Wow, amazing episode! I have seen Bob interviewed before, but never right at the mixing console performing his magic. Back in the 80s and 90s I read his name one so many records, but there was no way to get a look behind the scenes. So glad you are doing this now!
Same here - I had so many records either mixed or remixed by Bob, and I'd built up an image in my head of what he was like. I had no idea he'd be so down to earth, humble and cool. I could spend hours annoying him.
OH MY GOD. Just fast forward to 24 minutes - guitar, bass and drums. It’s just the greatest sound ever. I wish Bob would do a ‘less 80s’ version based around that rhythm section.
This was so much fun! Every episode stands on its own merits but getting into a home studio of one of the greats is super special! I would love to see more of this kind of thing.
Thanks a lot! This was so cool you guys. I love these pulling back the curtain type videos. There’s so much going on with all our everyday things that we don’t know enough about to appreciate
I'm so happy to discover this channel! These interviews is the best thing that musicians can do for their fellow musicians around the world! It's so much fun to watch you guys being like kids in a candy store)))The production quality is so great I literally felt like I was there with you! Thank you so much and please keep going!!!
Great episode - Bob is such a gentleman as well as a gifted mixer - I knew him from 'the olden days' at Mediasound Studios and he was incredibly dedicated to his craft - it seems to have paid off! Really enjoyed this.
I'm late to the party for this one, but this is a really inspirational episode! It's awesome to hear the separate tracks bare and then hear how they sound after Bob is done with them. There's so much I can learn from this!
My Lord this episode was chock full of information! Thanks as always for helping a learning musician understand the way things work! I love your episodes! Keep them coming!
Gentlemen, this really was epic. It shows how the performance of emotion when recording, trumps the need for perfection of the take every time. I’ve not seen your channel before, so thank you for this sonic nectar.
Awesome episode gentleman! What a great interview with Bob, your curiosity brought out a ton of wonderful mixing insight that Bob wouldn’t have thought to highlight. He’s a treasure of knowledge and it’s wonderful that he’s so open to share.
I love that he’s slightly annoyed by them 😂 it’s like asking Picasso why he’s using certain brush strokes…😂
Well, they are annoying.
The "two nerdy musicians awestruck by a grand master of their craft" episodes are the best ones
Other way to see it, newer music overstrained makes the old mix feel organic
agree but isn't that every episode?
This
@@dylanlenn7836 Yes
All hands in their pockets, being careful...🤣
This kind of content is the way. These stories will be lost for ever if they aren’t captured. Bob is a living legend!
Absolutely! I feel the same way about Anthony Maranelli's new channel. He most notably was involved in the making of MJ's Thriller album and has been cranking out the videos from his home studio where he goes into incredible detail about the sounds and has even debunked some myths that have been flying around the internet for years about certain songs...I'm just ecstatic that so many of these people are opening their doors and giving us the information we always wanted.

“It’s hi-passed where?” “70, it says.” I love that moment.
However cliche it might be to say, it really is heartwarming to see such an obviously humble guy just doing what he loves.

Well that's told us then.
He's playing that console like an instrument. Brilliant and inspired in its own way.
You listen to a track for 40 years and you think you know it, then you see this video and its like a whole different song. Mind blowing!
Agreed! I love things like this that give you a whole new appreciation and perspective on things!

Nailed it
Exactly. Source material is EVERYTHING... today, it's all DIY tracks and we're "creating" the sounds as mixers, like producing after the fact :/
Incredible. I never knew how much went into mixing and what a profound effect it has on a song. I always thought " Born in the USA" was a relatively rough cut song. Boy was I wrong. The mixer really doesn't get enough credit for the feel of an iconic song. Great video guys
It is rough cut. Polished songs take even more effort... Bob Clearmountain is a genius.
@@MartinKrijgsmanMusic 💪🏼
The “mixer” is the reason the song even happens
It’s so crazy how all his guitar parts were like almost punk rock and all rickety but yet altogether they work perfectly! That mix is incredible. ✊🏽

I came here to say this. Unmistakable filters.
The shaker on Born in the USA is Clarence - he often did extra percussion on songs without the saxophone.

Great vid. I worked on the ‘Born in the USA’ sessions and can confirm Bruce often cut vocals live on an SM57.
I used to be very skeptical of 57s and 58s as main studio vocal mics for their dirty nature but they work perfectly for gritty rock vocals.
It sounds amazing on my own vocals, better than condensers when it comes to heavy songs.
I use SM57’s on my acoustic guitar in the studio. Mainly because all my valve mics are broken. Use what you got.
Springsteen on a 57?! Damn!
Totally makes sense, since he was cutting them live and those mics would be ideal for getting minimal bleed.

Bob “When I stop getting up and fixing stuff on the console.” 🔊✨👍
You guys are really hitting the big leagues with these guests! Every week is better than the last.
No Surrender is still my favorite song on that album -- those lyrics hit me hard

Cool. What a truly nice guy Bob Clearmountain is. I really enjoyed this episode.
This is what separates ARTISTS from technicians. Artist don't think... They just DO. and that's why they impact the souls of the people.
The Primal scrub guitars are life affirming! I was so happy to hear just how raw they are.. fabulous.

So many of my 80s records had "mixed by Bob Clearmountain" on them. It always made me wonder why they all used him. Outstanding work, guys.
John Fogerty went to Bob with his 1997 album. It helped get the Grammy for Best Album.

When you isolate the guitars it becomes Pete Townsend backing Bruce. So much of that could be The Who if you never heard the voice and the keys.
