Lazy on a Saturday afternoon…
Watching a engineer mixing a nice chill song on a Genesis console…
What can be wrong with that, perfect 😊
just beautiful...! 🤩
The smooth sound of Neve. The desk is like an instrument.
Wow that a nice studio... I have been just dying to see that console in inaction, and I'm certainly not disappointed... Thank You.
Oh man!! I have been drooling over the Genesys Black console for a few years now. If money was no object I'd already own one. IMO and from hours upon hours of researching, I think Neve smashed it out of the park with this console. I think this is about as perfect a hybrid-workflow console that you could get. Song sounds great too btw.
Dude honestly, after like 50 hours on one, it's...really clunky. Disappointingly low-quality touchscreen too.
@@TJF97what’s clunky about the console apart from the touch screen?
@@caminglis53 To disregard the touch screen is to disregard most of the console's functionality; that's one issue with the console and your question. Now before I get too ahead of myself I'll say I'm not really entrenched in the recording world, so perhaps this is just the nuance of a tracking console vs a mixing console being lost on me, but: You can't do much on the desk without the touchscreen. The screen itself seems to be a commercial model similar to Planar 24"; if you've never used one, they have about a 1/4" gap between the touch plastic (not glass) and the display itself, which makes it feel flimsy to use. And if you wish to use any EQ, comp, or filters, you must use the screen, and you must drag and drop. To change an EQ param from bell to shelf, you must press several buttons at once. The only encoders on the control surface are for gain/trim, sends, and pan. All the cool bits of hybrid desks-soft patch matrix, session recall, template storage/recall, signal path adjustments-are locked to the touchscreen and are just about always drag-and-drop. It's thoroughly unpleasant to apply the requisite pressure and drag a finger over this touch surface, which, again, is slightly texured plastic and not glass.
Adjustment of all EQ and comp circuits is done using a single set of four infinite encoders which do not intuitively translate to paramter adjustment for either processor.
Aside from the touchscreen, I'm not a fan of: no hard patch coming into the desk, difficulty switching banks to DAW mode and back, frequent network failures, and personally I'd have loved a digital looback feeding a recorder, just for rough prints, but that's a me thing.
@@TJF97 yes right yeah I see.
Regarding the faders that can be used for the daw do you think they properly zero out when in daw mode (this is hard electronics wise because of making both modes 100% compatible) but do you see the faders in daw mode working probably of notice what others have said, about not zeroing out daw tracks?
Lovely mix sir.
Groovy song. Nice vibes. I listened to this all the way through while setting up my new studio.
❤
awesome video! you made that song POP! Loving it!
THIS IS BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL!!!!
I like that. Sounds like 60's Motown music. Nice studio!
And it sounds amazing.
Supper.....work...
my humble salutation
Nice Video
thank you for share it this amazing with us!!!
NEVE,... and some of the all-time great analog outboard processing and effects gear,... nothing left to say. Hopefully the majority engineers of gravitate back towards this method of recording, mixing and mastering for the sake of artists and their music,... and the listener. Superb!
Maybe for recording but not for mixing and mastering.
@@jiddec Why not?,... for decades mixing and mastering did their work entirely on analog equipment. some of the best sounding records were recorded, mixed, edited and mastered totally in the analog world with the best equipment available ,... that is still highly sought after today. Obviously editing in the digital world is much quicker which is a huge benefit.The iZ Technology RADAR 24 digital multitrack recorder is the closest thing I have heard yet to 2" analog multitrack tape machines,... expensive but worth every penny if looking for that warm sound quality.

I think this is just a matter of preference based on a sound you're familiar with or used to because in reality no two analog boards sound the same and besides that, the consumers can't tell the subtle difference between two analog boards or OTB and ITB sounds, to them if it sounds good it's good. All these subtle differences talk happen only among audio engineers. To sum it up, when I watched the final video of this song (mastering) I concluded this is achievable 100% ITB in my opinion plus the advantage of recallable mix preset and faster workflow..
I don't think you can
@@andreagaravini5014 I do it all the time.
me fascina el sonido analogo digital a si como ese estudio
Very cool song!
lovely
Awesome,,,
A very expensive Audiovisual mixing device...
I love it !!!!
Never have enough comp! Sounds great though top job
Greentings from Brazil, man. Great song, great sound and mix. Analog's such a good vibe.
Thats a beautiful song...where can i find it
muito massa top demais que lindo trabalho
Oh Lord
won't you buy me
a black Genesys,
my friends all drive porches,
I must make amends.
which from all the speakers did you used in this video? The Mixcubes ?
Sweet mix bro 😎
lol , thnx 4 this Carlo!
good music
What's the name of this song and artist?
Amazing sound, do you use GenesysControl plugins anything or are you just going console mode
How do you print the mix please🙏🏻🙏🏻?
Did you get the Ad/Da card on the channels and/or monitor section
Can you explain me how works the genesys black please. Do you need a computer ? How works the integrated screen ? Need to be connected to a primary computer or stand alone ? Thanks
Ma funge anche come controller daw protools come la ssl duality ?
How does he do this? I mean record this? Is he recording the audio into a separate software?
GOOD AFTERNOON TELL ME THE EQUALIZER FOR MASTERING ?
What desk is that ?????
are the 1176 in parallel?
Nice console...This works with Cubase? :)
of course lol. you can run any sound thru it from any recorder or digital audio recorder/DAW.. ur funny...
Ey man, i am thinking of getting some old analog mixer but it seems not every one can route audio from a daw thru the preamps and back.
What would be the way to do it?What specifications on the mix desk should i look for?
I just want to test this on some cheaper mixer and route audio from a DAW thru analog preamps and back..
Thx
I started watching this video 3 years ago
at time it was at 1.5k views, I watched this video at least 10 times a day religiously
now you’re at 50k!!! Good job !! Time reveals greatness 😊 awesome mixing!!
I wish I had people like you listening to my music 😂
Nice mix and quickly done too. Must be nice to have everything at your fingertips instead of having to use the mouse for everything.
Question for Carlo: For recalls, do you commit all of these tracks when you're done with printing the mix, or write all of the settings down for every piece of gear? I don't know much about the console, but I believe it can recall everything, but still, that's a lot of outboard gear to keep track of.
Before // 01:03
After // 31:12
Amazing work indeed. Which pair of monitors are you mixing on in this video??? Engineers have different work flows & yours is incredible. Also, I see that most studios have a pair of Yamaha NS10m Studio’s right. Are these used during the mixing process or just to reference after the mix is complete? I could ask the same question about the Auratone’s…
This was so enjoyable and amazing first time catching this hope there is more many more lol
Beautiful amazing room! Congratulations on reaching the height of good taste and recording equipment..✨
This is great stuff but it's hard to watch, I'm getting sea sick. Where is the lock-off over the shoulder now and then? Sounds fantastic but come on..... Dramamine time. Question: How was the board fed to UA-cam, a separate DAW?
Great mix boss. Thanks 4 allowing me the privilege of shadowing your get down. Fantastic song 2 sounds like you got Etta James on tha vocal. Classic.
Gorgeous! If the money was there I would have the Genesys Black yesterday and all the toys!!
What console is that? Sorry for the silly question. Thanks.
Its a Neve Genesys Black ;)
black Genesys
The bleed from her vocal mic destroys the drums. It's the biggest challenge of Kat's recordings from Telefunken. Automation is necessary throughout on the horns and the vocal blend at the out.
genial
this is it... this is what i want in my live, forever.
Where do you use your Focusrite preamp? on what sources, or is it a white elephant in the studio along side with the Neve console?
Yes!! white elephant! not use, only parket
Great video Carlo! Beautiful console!
Good watch!
Nice Sound! 👌
Great!
I’m loving every bit your whole studio setup, and how that mix came together. Awesome vid….🦾🦾🦾💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥
