This is gold! Thanks, Colt. Amazing that you're prepared to share your own techniques.
"level match yourself" got me 🤣thank you for being you!
thanks for sharing! it’s also great to use these techniques in EDM productions 👊🏻
I told Delvin at Sweetwater I watch your gear videos all the time. I’m almost 60 now and am too old for links and buttons:) Hope it still helps. Love the content.
Colt, most people aren’t aware of how the mono maker works. It can change your stereo image at the crossover frequency. It can be good or bad depending on what you’re going for. There are mono makers out there that don’t affect the phase as much or at all, Tokyo Dawn makes a really good one called Elliptical. Might be worth checking out!
This is why we love you Colt! Awesome video as always :)
It was insanely helpful and educational videos like this that made me subscribe back when you had about 25,000 followers.
Hands down some of the most useful and actionable content for mixing and mastering. Thank you!
Love the snare drum sample reverb default you use. Love that you don't concern yourself about stage gain and letting your ears determine how you want the song to sound and feel. This specific video was a wealth of information. Thank you.
Wow, that opening sequence... makes me dream! Great job as usual Colt! Regards from Canada.
Colt, great info. Thank you for ALL you do and share. Your technique and style is amazing!! Thank you ❤!!
Amazing video Colt!! Thank you for sharing
This is exactly what I needed from you!
Great video!!! Always so much to learn from watching your actual work process. Thanks for sharing
Thank you Colt, lots of new stuff to try
Love your tutorial video! You are one of the best at explaining what you are doing and why. I have learned SOOOOO much. Thanks for what you do.
Thanks for the tip!! What a time saver “top to bottom” mixing. I tried it for the first time tonight and man i wish i knew this before lol. Thanks again 👍🏼!
Damn Colt that sounds really good!!! Thanks for sharing this. Learned a lot!
Amazing. Love watching your tutorials.
You’re incredible dude! Thanks for the great content. 🤘🏼
Great video Colt! Pure Gold
Colt, this is really great. Thanks for this video. Please do more mix walkthroughs like this. And it would be cool to see how you typically handle other genres, too.
Dude you are the best!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!
Wow, dude. Your explanation for top down mixing finally made the methodology click for me. This was such a helpful guide and I absolutely got some helpful information out of it. I also really appreciated your explanation for what you're actually using your auratones for. I use that EQ trick all the time (and I have a pair of planar headphones that are also really good for this) but I've only ever used it just to check the feeling of the midrange. It makes a ton of sense to use that specifically to check the presence of the vocal in the mix. Thanks for what you do, I always learn a ton!
Freaken awesome video as usual. Thank you!
The outboard gear REALLY made just what you said, from rough mix to polished!
helpful and entertaining at the same time - and very comprehensive 👏👏👏
Crazy how many of these techniques I use. Great stuff. I’m loving Fabfilter Pro Q too.
Hey Colt, Its Jer from the old FB Live sessions. Glad you're killing on YT now!
I learned something ! Thank you !
Pretty good. I could watch another 3 hours of this.
top notch - yet again!
Thank you Colt, going to try some of your recommendations on a Song I'm working on rn. Thx Again ! George
Thank you sir for being so generous with your knowledge!! Blessings!
Superb, thanks! 😎
Super-Stellar intro!
So clean!! Mega depth!
…and stuff😂
Thank you Colt for helping us sound better and better!
🤟😺🤟
M
Thank you so much for the wealth of information.
Awesome video, if you’re starting out these approaches should get you a long way and up ahead 🤟🏼
This si what you're good at, this is what we appreciate .. this is the man! 🙂
great stuff man, learned a lot!
Super helpful sir as always 🔥🔥🔥
Great video!
fantastic!
keep up the good work bro
Im gonan give this a try. Im a old FOH mixer. I have been mixing it to eq for years. LOL Hats off for not level matching. I guess im just a old grumpy live dude..
its helped me a TON
Hey Colt, great video! Something to try out to save you time on that Tom Automation ; Try Smart Gate by Sonible. I'm generally all about hand automation, but Smart Gate is surprisingly good at catching exactly the drums you want and giving you pretty decent control over the Attack and release of it and does a great job killing everything else. It can even gate out specific sounds/drums from full OH recordings, actually pretty impressive in that regard.
Makes good sense, thanks for sharing. :^)
THANK U MASTER !!!!
I love your new intro
Awesome
What an intro 💪
You are dropping GEMS here man! Literally taking notes lol. The one question I have is why do you send the drum room mics directly to the mix bus instead of the drum bus?
Learned so much; thanks Colt!
I have a slightly unrelated question for you. If you find that an effect or something similar is giving you some phase issues, how do you go about fixing the problem?
Really looking forward to your individual review of SPL Vitalizer Mk3. I used to own MK2-t but sold it long time ago, but now kinda want MK3 again lol. SPL just spoke about Tube-vitalizer is discontinued and there might be successor of it.
i love that shirt so much
On protools, if you press Comand + Controll you can inactive the hardware insert or plugin inside the insert section.
any chance you could show us your produce your brilliant video production, now with speed ramping. great work as always!
Hi Colt, really cool video thanks 🙏🏾 do you have a video on reverbs and delay, you said on this project tou have a character reverb, a slap delay, a main reverb and a general delay. What all those are doing? Thanks 🙏🏾
Great video Colt. Do you start your mixes with a template or are you starting from scratch every time?
I was always saying its thecbest way to mix every sound of the drumkit , and then every instrument on its own
I still believ its the best way
I also sometimes spilt a piano into its low mid and high octaves
Or the chords and melodies
Fitst to pan them exactly then to better work on the frequencies reverbs and everything
I felt its better to adjust rooms and everything for specific frequency ranges
Its not always necessary but i still do it when it doesnt feel right listening to it
Im not very into mixing and all these things
But here i saw that each part of the drumkit has its own chanel
Thats what i saved me as a preset when i open an empty project
Afterwards i just erase all other drum plugins and its mixer chanels
I saw very often that many producers is mixing the drums as one loop
Or opening singke windiws for the snare kick and so on
To me its much easier to find it in my mixer chanel and then manipulate the signal
24:02 - Try Sonibles Gate plugin for this, could potentially save a shit ton of time.
Also, for Vocal automation, you might cringe but Waves Vocal rider can require tweaking after the fact, but also saves a lot of time.
Oh and True Iron tends to introduce a lot of added lows even after any high passing earlier in the chain, not sure if this just flat out doesn't matter, but worth mentioning.
Well that's one to pin for reference - nice one Colt!
That snare verb trick is so spicy. You usually have to pay for tips like that!
Hey Colt, timestamps would be great for your videos man, thanks for what you do!
TRANSLATION: “No matter what” absolutely translates to “Even if that’s nearly none”.
“I use it here no matter what” in mix engineering context means “whether that’s a lot, or virtually none at all. Depending on what the song calls for”.
👍😎👍
Hahaha. “I don’t care that there’s a level bump…I know what I’m doing”. Love it. I never level match. If it sounds killer and it makes me smile. Then that’s getting to what I’m trying to achieve.
Anyways I’m surprised you don’t put a gate, like the new AI gates that are out there. Seems like a lot of work writing automation for each tom hit.
Peace!
I've got the AS 260 and yes, it's amazing. But you know what's underrated IMHO? The Q2 Compex.
5:27 how can i say that's "MASSIVE"? U got 6+db out of that plugin, i wouldn't ever tell what the real eq difference is.
ily bro 🥲
hi colt how does your mastering process look like ? cause if feel you have done everything on your mix bus processing, do you just limit in your mastering processing???
Just curious to know, regardless amazing work great song really liked it .
Great video @coltcapparrune ! How come you don’t automate the toms all the way down when the’re hitting? Do you feel that the bleed contributes to the overall sound?
I dont know whats inside a PT but the Reaper has a default plugin called: "Volume Adjustment" - it`s enough good... its a nice volume level utility. Anyway a simple params EQ with that trimmer by... makin exactly same effects, as these thousand plugins
Com exceção do mono maker, curti as dicas. Obrigado!
Mono maker apenas corta o side, não transforma nada em mono.
I've learned a lot of tips from you! Thank you. I want to share one, humbly suggest: why not use a plugin like maag or michaelango eq instead of FF pro q 3 for that high band boost you do.. Thank me later ;)
I noticed that clown car interface Avid M-Box is no longer on your desk. Good choice.
You are easily my favorite mixing engineer (besides myself),... you da man. #respect #continueon ✊
Hey Colt question here: What are your thoughts on phase aligned for drums and how do you tipically get that done? Sound radix offers Auto Align is that something you do manual or use this plug-in. Also that duplicate of the snare is to compensate for the inconsistencies in volume on every hit every drummer naturally has, is that why you also route it to your reverb to trigger that more consistenly? they also have the auto leveler which level out the gain of every snare hit, is that something you would do?
❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤
Remember folks. Top-down mixing is not the same thing as top-only mixing
is there sonic difference between this spl and the bx_digital? i've been using the digital due to the visual it also has.
Colt, did you go back to the UAD interface? I was wondering how you would get your outboard rack in and out of the avid box.
For your hardware chain, how much are you changing settings per song? Or do you have a main go to for everything?
Is the grit/saturated sound in the vocal something you mixed or did you add saturation to the vocal. It sounds fire. Or is that the singer?
Great video thanks!
My master bus chain now has become
Dynone, Kelvin, Unisum, God Particle, Sonnox Inflator, Ozone
Strange that you would automate the toms like that, not only that you're doing it by hand instead of using a favorite gate with envelope settings, but also that it's an "every song" policy. I mean I get it and I used to do it too, but what do you do for extended fills or drum solos?
while looking for saturation plugins I found this compressor called shapeshifter by aberrant... 5min later it replaced every compressor I use...
When top down mixing, do you do your high and low passing before you start?
I got the Neve MBP Based on your video of Turn that Country UP. 🤣🤣 then saw you have MBT. This actually happened. What are your thoughts on the difference?
would love access to some of your favorite home-made drum samples
One question. The dynamic EQ at the beginning almost feels like a second instance of a multiband compressor. What makes what you do at the start different than the other?
I want one of those T-shirts.
Pretty sure they are Audioscape T-Shirt (maybe available on their website) :).
Sounds like you are… set in your ways
Have you tried using Heat rather than or combined with saturation on each track? What are you thoughts on Heat in general?
Colt, I kind of noticed that you do not really stack plugin saturation on your channels. like you either use TUPE, True Iron or Black Box per channel but do not stack. Is that correct? What makes you choose one over the other?
Trigger warning: I hate mono maker.
I hate it too, and it's totally unnecessary. If someone is listening to music on a shitty system then they don't care about audio quality anyway, why would you compromise your mix for them? There is only one good reason to mono your bass, out of phase stereo widened bass that is being cut to vinyl, that's it. It's one of those UA-cam engineering myths and it cuts the balls of your music. Stop doing it people 🤦🏾♂️
They use a filter technique behind the scenes that can massively effect the phase and stereo image. Dan Worrall has some really in depth videos explaining this phenomenon. There are some really good mono makers out there. I don’t think that brainworx makes any of them though. Tokyo Dawn has a really good one, probably the best on the market that has zero phase or stereo image problems and truly makes the low end mono. It does pull some cpu though.
@@dudemcgee256whats the name of the tokyo dawn plugin?
Just use Pro-Q 3 in m-s mode and cut the sides. This won’t mess up your stereo imaging and their phase relation, unlike those so-called mono makers.
@@spvcecowboy That will work as long as you’re in linear phase mode. Otherwise you’ll be subject to the same image changes. Dan Worrall goes over this exact topic in much better detail than I ever could. The video is called “headphones are not stereo”. Really great stuff.
cool tshirt :) where can i buy it ?
In the drum tracks, what is the one called "Hose?"
Are you planning to get Blackbox hardware??
Have you compared the serpent to the G comp?
