This was a brilliant watch. Amazing job. Yeah we can do it all in the box now with infinitely less cost and while we can argue for days about whether or not that can sound better,, worse or equal one thing is more sure - it's nowhere near as fun as this. Surely that's the point right - every stage of creating art should be a joy
My FAVE Queen song. always gets me pumped. Mixing this on a remust have been a blast!
So well said.
You don't have this result in the box
Jason shaw, U don t have rhis rich and euphonic result itb,..wash your hears:)
yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Joy is so underrated. We as humans work tirelessly to create convenience, while simultaneously robbing ourselves of joy.
Amazing how humanity has invested time, money, brains and effort just to create something that manipulates vibrations so it sounds "pleasant" to the ears.
Best comment 👌
The way you fattened up the kick and snare compared to the original mix really brings this song into the next century. Love it.
The bass is so fat my man
@@se-ku3op T H I C C B A S S
every Bass needs to be at least as fat as yo' mama!
Too, bad that wont work on record labels.
These Comments made my day, hahahahahahaha
This demonstrates the importance of good source material.
Interesting to hear a modern mix of this track, it literally sounds like it was recorded last week. More wider & bottom end.
Cueboyd Fat bottomed mixes make the rockin world go round
@@jimjamkillsnerds fat bottomed mixes are cliche
@@F0nkyNinja anyone with "ninja" in their username are cliché and overrated
@@muziqfreek anyone who calls something overrated is edgelord
@@SatEight dafuq you talking about bellend?
I'm proud of saying I can finally understand what he is doing
I don't :(
@@leandroisaac2000 mostly leveling, EQing, Wideing Channel's like the Solo Guitar or Background vocals to take more space in the mix and soloing stuff from the mix to see what needs reverb or eqing, running it into some racks to give it more compression, Overdrive, Stereo Enhancer Etc.
I learnt instantly things that I have been wondering about audio mixers for ages, what is the use of soloing everything and send channels why what? Obvious I know but I have never seen a studio mix happen.
I occasionally do live mixes but I am an embryo in comparison.
Just watching it made total sense. Thank you.
Nadeshiko is best girl
;
hats of to this guy. as a live and studio sound engineer i honestly have to say that mixing like this is a rare skill nowadays.
What a mix! Makes it sound like the track was recorded yesterday.
Why does that laptop stand have lights and names all across it?
:)
Lol
It took me a while to understand this comment hahaha
Oh I get it lol
It's an old laptop stand from the 2000s when they thought you need lights to make laptop stands look cool
I love watching people mix, especially analog mixes, for some reason its satisfying me for me
What amazes me is that.. Just the raw tracks and the performances are so amazing, and you can really tell how big of a difference getting the best sound you can at the source can make
I’m not sure why but when the guitar solo came in, a lump appeared in my throat. Your passion and love for what you do is extremely inspiring man, thank you for sharing this. I had fallen out of love with the idea of this being my career, but this gave me the fire to jump right back in, thank you sir
Wow, thank you!
Most folks do a lot of talking with a bunch of expensive gear behind them and by the time they’re done rambling you’ve already mixed 2-3 songs! Good shit man!!!
Well, this song was already established, before Mr. Duskin here could even turn a knob on a mixer. Still, great work
Or they'll just write an audio book, instead of working
Mixing on a board like that is an art form... a dance... only the great studios choreograph the perfect mix. Excellent.
Simply amazing how analog boards sounds. It has a life of its own.
2:26 Applies magic
2:29 Applies more magic
2:57 Magic rack is magic
This is the most accurate comment in this video
Hell fucking yeah!!! There's a FATSO EL7X Compressor, then a NEVE 33609 Stereo Compressor and 2 Pultec EQP-1A. Am I right?
In 10 years of UA-cam surfing and 16 years of FOH for all kinds of venues I have found a perfect video.
Love every second.
Love this mix. Wish the re-mastered song on Apple Music sounded this punchy.
It should, is it an Apple Digital Master?
every step he makes im like this cant sound better and everytime he prove me wrong. MINDBLOWING
I want all of Queen's back catalogue to sound like this. Which would probably take you around 15 minutes.
I love how virtually all of those console setups have a Lexicon 480L sitting somewhere nearby.
Wow dude... you are fast as hell. This is an amazing example of why to get an analog console rather than working all in the box.
I just realized recently how funny it is that the determining factor of certain qualities of a music production stage/process usually comes from the last stage/process. For example, how loudness and punch in mastering, usually comes from good mixing; how good arrangements, instrumentation, usually comes from good songwriting, and in this case of the video, how good sounding mixes, usually comes from flawless performances
This is amazing.... no talking, just mixing - and the end result is mind-blowingly better than the original mix. Really shows how far music technology has come
My man, those Pultec Tube EQ engaging are the moment this song goes from great to AMAZING. I absolutely love this mix, and the video you put together for it. Please keep this coming! Saw you on Facebook and loved every single second of it.
where do you think the pultecs are pluged in? maybe in the master track?
i think master track, you can hear they bump up all instruments
@@oinkooink i can confirm the klark teknik are like adding magical stardust to anything, you dont even need much skill to have them improve your sound
Mateusz Madej ีาคะ ิึ่ง
OMG when he turns on the Pultec!! 2:58
Bass mode:ON!!!
What did he switch in at 2:30? That was a step change too.
@@PurpleTT99 NEVE 33906.
what does that unit do? EQ+compression?
@@jugobugo Pultec is EQ, uses tubes and sounds very F A T and B R O A D
this guy needs to do all of the remasters and re-releases. absolutely brilliant sound.
Here I am again. Watching this for the 100th time and just applauding with tears in my eyes at the pultec moment.
This is ASMR for sound engineers.
(or should that be ADSR :thinking:)
Every year I come back to this video to motivate myself. It's a pleasure to hear all the analog gear doing its awesome work for music.
thanks so much for this viceo
Fascinating! It's amazing how much you can learn from hearing each track.
This is the most exciting mix video I have ever seen, it gave me goosebumps to see & hear this amazing mix evolve into such a gaint & balanced wall of sound...love it!!
So many layers in this song! I appreciate what you upload :)
Outstanding to watch you at work and create something beautiful and stunning. A pleasure and a joy to witness. Thanks for giving this to us. Respect my brother ✊🏾
Such an absolute pleasure to watch!
That's some top notch gear and flawless mixing skills. Awsome!
this was simply an experience... my heart is pumping. thank you :)
This video is a real experience!!! You’ve gained a subscriber. Thanks for this!!
Amazing to see how a song born! Thanks for sharing this art!
It sounds so good. Thank you for your ears.
Great video! Now it's easy to show people how ergonomic, fast and expressive an analog mixing workflow can be. Thanks for the great vid!
so many 1176's OMG
Yung Lev ты чего тут забыл?)
As someone who's mixing down an orchestral version of this song, I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm always coming back everytime I see your videos on my timeline...this is one of the best channel/idea on the tube...please give us more! cheerz
OMG You've just made my day!!
Such a beautiful song)
Listening to it and singing along while watching how you mix it was awesome!!
Really cool video! Adding a few captions or youtube annotations that narrate the mixing moves- especially on the outboard- would really be valuable as well. Thanks for making this!
Too much fun watching you on the console! I love hearing the soloed tracks and then hearing your treatments on them. Your mixes are awesome, and fast! Great job, brother!
Man, that was a captivating watch. Thank you!
Freddie’s voice is so strong and cuts right through everyday. Was an amazing talent
this literally made me tear up, holy cow. You don't see this kind of work flow often at ALL!
It’s always nice to see someone actual mix on a console that knows what they’re doing with analog gear. Great mix
Dap👊🏽🎶
Thanks for making this man~ super cool!
honestly it's already sounded good on 2 minutes mark, but then you disengaged the fatso, then the neve comp, .....and the pultec. i nearly cried :))
quality content mate, please keep making more!
Wah ada om Redshift.. Halo oom.. 😁
Wow!!! This is so cool!!! Your isolations are very fast! Amazing!
ohhh its sounds so warm and soft, i like it very much
This was amazing, great job!
I just did a A/B between your mix and the album version.... and WOW!!.... this just slams. Well done.
This is it! This is what we all want to see! The work being done to the point. Great job. Sub'd!!!
This was so fun to watch, love it
Fantastic modern mix that sounds like it was recorded yesterday. The recording itself was brilliant, of course. Keep up the good work
this video must be included in most satisfying video of all time... amazing...\m/...
Excellent! Great mix! Loved how much you highlighted the solo, that sound deserved to be highlighted in the original mix.
The Jazz LP is often said to have not been very well produced/mixed in comparison to their other releases but this sounds phenomenal. Would love to have a full remixed version.
This is a so enjoyable video man! Enjoy every second. Very good!
Really great done mix,this song have new life,everything is move in this song,waiting for next ,thanks !!!
Wow hella modernized feel 💕 You brought out all this clarity and room while keeping everything up to face. Exceeding expectations as usual
I'm learning to use this exact board at school. Amazing!!!❤️👍🏾
If Freddie had all this technology now, imagine what Queen would have sounded like! This mix brings the song to a new plato.
John Bovinette freddie didn’t need new technology it should have stayed that way
It's funny you say that, literally 90% of what's used here comes from the 60s 70s and 80s. The console itself uses a channel strip design that's almost 20 years old.
You engaging those pultec eqs is my new drug. Absolutely loving these videos! :)
with a voice like that, everything sounds killer! :) Nice job man!
WOW.....SUPER AMAZING JOB!!!! BOSS, YOU'RE AWESOME!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR TALENT/SKILL TO US....
When listening with good headphones, those Pul-Tecs engaged add so much room around your ears. Fantastic!
Wow love your pace mixing great work man what a great band
This is just amazing, please do more queen
Amazing & inspiring! - Thank You So Much! x x x
An artist making art. Putting the perfect frame around the picture.
Subbed. I mean, who doesn't wanna watch a mix every week! Awesome dude.
Amazing work. Although the original mix is very good, brilliant, considering it's age, when I switched to it, almost felt off my chair. Would like to have your mix in wave file!
There is something beautiful and inspiring about this. I only have the vaguest notion of audio production and I have no idea what most of the things you are doing actually do, or why one tweak or another is necessary or desired, but still to just watch you fly through this electronic jungle like a leaping lemur was just great.
Best thing I've watched on UA-cam till date. Your workflow is incredible. Not to mention the sight of all that incredible vintage gear!!
Thank you so much 😀
this is so satisfying thank you!
He kicked on the 33609 and I was like "OH." Then he threw on the Pultecs and I went "OHHHH." Sonic bliss. Great mix!
I am a fat guy, and I can confirm that lol
God when he pans the choir, it's super satisfying.
Zeuz Makes Music I watched that part about 20 times
Nothing can beat mixing on an analogue desk and using eq on it! Such a big difference from doing it in DAW! Pleasure to watch! 😍❤️
How is this the first time I've seen your channel. Totally awesome. That was more than a video, it was an experience.
UA-cam recommended this way too late, I should have known about this by now. This is the CLEANEST mix of Don't Stop Me Now I've ever heard. The ONLY complaint is the fade out is a little to quick at the end, other than that, this sounds like what the final cut should have been. The flashing levels and bouncing VU meters on top of that warm and punchy sound are just ecstasy. An excellent mix of a wonderful song, done on beautiful equipment by a master technician.
It sounds really good!✨✨
I've never heard that silent "whii" at around 06:57. It's audible in the actual mix too! I will never unhear this!
tbh its sounds a lot cleaner than the 2011 remastered, the instrument just sounds more real
And this is just the mix, it’s missing the mastering!
Iñaki Hernandez it barely even needs mastering in this case.
That's because the new "remastering" crushed the dynamics with compression.
@@sjsh5837 if you are mastering for streaming platforms these days you would like to preserve some dynamics or the algorithm will lower the overall volume of the master. Since conversion to loosy formats tend to add distortion artifacts to tracks (I guess that's the reason).
@@MertensHelbelga I really hope they push that more aggressively, had some amazing albums come out recently that are completely brickwalled.
It looks like you’re prepping a plane for landing
😂
no, he corrects the rocket flight
all studio mixer knows , mix Quick and make strong decisions. thats why he is so fast like a pilot ;)
Awesome stuff! The POV perspective gives some great insight on what it feels like to work with a great board and some sexy ass outboard gear. 💪
Beautiful Studio, amazing hardware, congrats for your studio, a dream!
The Puigtec's add so much warmth! Really nice job dude
Mixagem é arte mesmo, Sensacional !!!
Amazing work! Thanks for this video =)
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen!
This is hella dope you got strait to it very awesome my first time seeing someone today actually mix on console plus i can tell you did this for yeas of experience the way you move and know were to turn and press very learning experience. nothing beats the hardware and analog maaan this is crazy love it. I sub Keep doing this format bro
Love it!! Sound amazing!
Most awesome, good sir! Thanks for the good vibes (y)
one song: one hour of recording 10 minutes of mixing, so 1,5 hour of completion of song.
13 songs on Jazz album.
The whole album completed in 20 hours.
Great job.
