Tony: Clicks bypass on. Clicks bypass off.
Crowd: applauds 👏👏👏👏
Omg that sent me miles away
I saw this lecture when I had cold and wanted to relax by watching some UA-cam videos at October last year. I can say now, a few months later, that it completely changed the way I was creating music and I would even say it changed my life little bit. I'm constantly coming back and watching few bits of this amazing lecture. I even screened his whole session for analysis how I can use it to improve my mixing. Absolutely love this.
these mixcon videos are so underrated its crazy
I still can't believe they're free!
right
I don't understand the criticism of this talk. No he didn't get technical, but what he did do was expand upon his mixing philosophy. Namely that mixing is about feeling, not sonic technicality. Another valuable lesson is to capture the best recordings possible, and leave as little as possible to the mix process.
Tony lives and breathes mixing, I mean the man can do it in his head! If you want to mix like him, you have to apply that same dedication.
The fact that mixing involves feeling does not exclude the fact that it's also about sonic technicality. And actually, if you group a whole bunch of professionally mixed songs together you will notice that they have something in common when compared to amateur mixes. They are more balanced. Balancing a mix involves a lot of sonic technicalities, and there are plenty of mixing classes that involve sharing those technicalities.
@@SubscribersWithoutAnySubscribe what do you mean exactly? gain staging, riding volumes etc?
@@SubscribersWithoutAnySubscribe All of mixing involves a lot of technicalities, but again he wasnt here to explain how a compressor or EQ works, he was explaining his philosophy behind mixing which is something new engineers need to develop. A better feeling record will always sound better than a technically better record, period. That's why AI hasn't taken over the mixing industry.
@@JakeLewisReal Yea I mean I don't agree with what the OP called the criticism of this talk, I was just pointing out that the statement "mixing is about feeling, not sonic technicality" is patently false. I don't think that's an accurate summary of what Tony Maserati or any industry mixer believes. Also your conceptual separation of 'feeling' and 'balance' is highly inaccurate, balance is a big part of what determines a mix's feeling. Otherwise you wouldn't need mixers, you'd just leave it to the composer to 'feel it out'. What separates composers from mixers is not their vision of the song - the mixer largely caters to what the composer wants - what separates them is the mixer's ability to achieve that vision, and much of that is technical.
@@SubscribersWithoutAnySubscribe you have incredible grammar . And great responses
This album (3:33 - Debi Nova) just win a Latin Grammy for best engineered album and its awesome i saw this 1 year ago... congrats Tony, niceeeee Debi
I'm almost half-way through. Incredible value and lots of wisdom. Something not to be missed.
Tony Maserati is a living legend !
I was there!!!!
I've seen you on about 3 or 4 different videos dealing with waves or producers/engineers that deal with waves how has your mix came along so far has it really improved?
Thank you SonicScoop! Tony Maserati is such a great human being
Thank you SonicScoop!
The biggest takeaway on this video was definitely his passion to keep learning and be curious even at the level that he's at.
Thumbs up without viewing the content. Sonic scoop is doing so much for the mixing and the all encompassing music community! Already subscribed and notified, those viewing this comment should too. They got Tony Maserati people!!
Thank you McDsp you rock 😎
worst name ever though... can I get a 6 piece chicken mcnuggets on the 2-bus please
Fola the ProVerbalizer the creator, coder, owner of the company is Colin McDowell hence the “ MCD “. DSP is what the plugins do, they are Digital Signal Processors! Just combined his last name & DSP has nothing to do w/ chicken nuggets, burgers, or McDonalds. Add some fries on the master for warmth!
I had to watch this video a few times to really understand what he was trying to say. His philosophy is really on point, it makes sense why his mixes are so great.
You watched it a few times LMAO it's literally just a pitch for a product
Can we also talk about how great this song is. I can't understand a word but it has the vibe. Without that, you cannot create good mix.
McDSP rules!!
Out of his entire catalog, I'm here for his work on Twice lol. I'd pay for a deconstruction of I Can't Stop Me, thanks. EDIT: this is such a great presentation btw. people who take issue with it are pretty ridiculous tbh. and that's coming from someone whose initial comment was "gimme Twice." He let everyone in on his driving philosophies and mindset. If you need specific fader and knob moves, you're missing the entire point. By and large, what I want from a presentation by a master is their mindset. Here and there, a little trick is nice but he's here to let you in on what he deems important. He literally has content doing exactly what people are saying they want. This content complements those things perfectly. What more could you ask for from a guy like this? On top of all that, unless you're mcdsp, you didn't even pay for this lol. tf is happening
Thank you so much, Tony, Justin and Mcdsp. With respect from Russia
no wonder my mixes did not come out good, I was not thinking of the finisher on the wood...
I would love to hear a Tony and Tchad and JJP private conversation about technique and taste (without all the fluff and niceties of an official televised presentation per se.) Tony appears to be exceptionally suited for expository presentations that get across copious amounts of meta-information. Maybe somebody close to him can convince him to instigate something like this? It would be a remarkable accomplishment for the art in my opinion. Great work here. Thanks Tony.
Serban Ghenea is Gawdd! Please can you get him?
BTW Thank you for this!
YESSSS!!!!
This times a million, I'm sure many people would pay thousands of dollars for something like this with Serban or even just a video where he goes over one of his mixes
@@janetbailey6727 You can get the Grande stems that he mixed and deconstruct some of what he's doing.
Who else uses Maserati VX1 (stereo) on their audio tracks to record? I do every time. What a legend!
Wow, wow, wow! I would like to thank Tony for a wonderfully messy but hugely inspiring presentation!! I had only seen him as a somewhat smartass seller of Waves plugins. This shows him as a hard working engineer, still learning, still experimenting, working late hours for small details... This was, to me, a fascinating peek at real life in this wonderful business. Thanks and congrats to Tony and to all who made this presentation possible !!
Thank you, *SonicScoop* and *McDSP* !
Anyone who recognizes the last insert of BG vocals? Is it C-18? Never heard of plugin like that.
just sparked some ideas for my mix, great insight into his mindset and questions he asks himself!
This is what my soul needed
Real verb pro for the win!
his philosophy has me asking myself what kind of fiber-count the fabric in the room has
Tony is awsome!
*plays track*
Nobody:
"🤔Hmm, what kind of room do i want to create? Do i want it to sound like
there is a wooden floor...
a cheeto bag sitting halfway on the venetian edge of a freshly sealed mid grade sized granite counter top?...
😔decisions, decisions..."
Is the packet lays or is it Doritos?
Great video. Thank you. Awesome song too.
Talking bout finnias distorted an 808 like aphex twin didn’t do it 20 years ago....
Seriously...
Tony doesn't play, don't forget to train your EARS! Thanks for sharing the knowledge, it's great to get to hear how a legendary mixers mind works. =)
Wow can't thank you guys enough!
Thanks SonicScoop & McDsp this is great value!
My dude,,- had the pleasure of working with Tony waaay back in the day,, powerful info from a mix icon.. -
Love your channel. Love the vids
I love Tony and so grateful for his willingness to share his knowledge but this lecture was really brutal. I zoned out, then fast-forwarded. I guess I was expecting more in depth mixing knowledge and techniques.
reminds me of Steve Jobs , Tim Cook - a Keynote.... he's on that level ! Great.
We all respect to the culture of the art of recording computer recording would never have a thumb finger foot or match to reel the real 2-in tape recording the quality is unmatchable.
We need to rebirth and rethink the 2in reel to reel
Good luck with that.
Lol wait finneas created that 808 bass distortion? That’s lowkey been done by Ronny J, Bones, etc. Finneas is still a great producer though
been done by so many producers before finneas, i think he was just using a modern example.
@@ph0kused ahh okay. Cuz he was saying it like wow did you hear what he did with that 808? He added distortion to it! That’s so creative and he’s a genius for that. That’s how I took it lol but if he was just using a modern example then I just took it out of context
Firstly, thank you to all the creators and facilitators for organizing, presenting and making these talks and making them available for free, it is fantastic work you are doing for us all. The Bob Power talk is fantastic, very helpful and inspiring. However, regarding this talk - as someone learning mixing and production, to spend over 30 mins talking about your friend's piece of kit, especially at a price many of us can't afford, was not helpful. Many of us are on a very tight budget and working on analog gear would be amazing, but is not possible so we have to work in the box. Also, although he certainly has tons of experience and helps create some excellent quality songs, to speak about being sent songs that are almost finished already is more mastering than mixing. I'm sure he has much experience to share that this talk didn't highlight, but again, the focus here was much more mastering than a mixing masterclass as the title would suggest. I'm not a hater, I just feel it's important to give honest feedback, not biased due to the speaker's credentials. Thanks again guys. Love & Music...
12:00 I think this shows that he is absolutely knowing what he is talking about, but that he also overestimates the expertise of audiences. I call this the "math teacher phenomenon". He simply knows so much that he cannot get into the mind of the average listener. Like this math teacher in school, who looked at you like you're dumb because you didn't get the Pythagorean theorem immediately. 😂No average music listener does actually recognize the nuances in kick drum sampling and mixing. They can tell if it fits in the mix, but they cannot tell more, nor do they care more. Still engaging talk so far.
HA! We got a shout out!
Thank you very much for this. Great.
I love this!!!!
Distorted 808’s have been used for years prior to Phineas in trap music he just adopted it in his sound.
you dont explain that to TONY MASERATI thinking that he doesn't know that. He is one of the most influential mixer of our generation. btw mike dean invented the use a sub heavy 808 and all the top engineers know it. dave pensado says that in an interview.
Man , Candy Rain was s banger!
Distorting an 808 is brilliance. I have been brilliant for 25 years then.
Fd Schuler amazing it’s like people were born yesterday
what a monster...this guy was reaching Tesla levels of mental visualization when he was mixing all in his head.
What's the name of the Debi Nova track?
Music can be a universal language, knowing the exact lyrics is not an urgent factor.
Marlon Brando Mixing? :O Thanks for the lessons!! Padrino!!!
What song is he taking about at 15:31? Anyone!
"xanny" by Billie Eilish. He was talking about how the distortion on the 808 kick seems to affect the vocals as well. Fire.
Once you hit a certain point of technical knowledge, it becomes 90% about hearing and feeling and 10% about anything technical. If you're working on fundamentals, this can be seen as aspirational and not educational. If you're well past fundamentals, you can pull some good info here.
Damn! That APB-16 (McDSP) is $7000.00. Wow!! Why these things have to be soooo expensive? Great vid from Mr. Maserati though.
Melodyman supposedly 16 analog compression circuits ( 16 channels ) that can digitally controlled in your DAW. Also they can emulate certain analog circuits not sure if this is done in the analog circuit or the DSP.
I do not agree with everything he said. For instance I don't think it's paramount to keep up with plugins. But I really got something from this speech, which I cannot say about every speech, even if other speeches are a lot more detailed on what kind of frequencies do what for them and how they eq or when they compress. In a way it's a liberating speech and helps you visualize music like a child again. It's really important to really understand and picture the emotion and work in broad strokes first. That's great advice.
I did not expect if George clooney start mixing
Pls Tony share all you had in your head in a book.An e-book will will do.Thank You
3:33 ❤
36:03 LOL 😂
I use his waves plugins
Al final se me hizo corto, apareció el amigo a cortar justo cuando se ponía mas ondero el contenido, buena la idea de la maquina, sabemos que la tecnologia se va sofisticando y esta integración de la circuitería analoga dentro de un sistema digital para comprimir esta buenisimo pero es un paso 🤔 me gustaria verlo inverso sistema análogo compresión digital, escuchar cual es mas dulce y un sistema que combine ambos a continuacion o paralelo 👌
Which Billie Eilish somg is he talking abt with the 808?
I think he's talking about xanny
@@samanthasalinas1059 I appreciate it
im sorry but I think its really important to understand what the singer is saying if you gonna be the last person putting your hands on their material before mastering. For example theres a error on her vocal track where she says; " No me quedan fuerza..." Well ...she should said "fuerzas" with "s" at the end. To explain you a little bit better .."Fuerza" no "s" means more like ..muscle strength . Fuerzas..with "s" ...means courage. And since she's singing in Spanish who you think its gonna be number one audience? Now a lot of you that dont understand what she's singing will let it pass not knowing what went wrong and probably get call out at the end even tho its not your fault since you only mixing not recording or vocal couching. Now another point is ...in some songs theres some instances where the lyrics can inspire you to make some drastic changes . For example a verse that ends saying the word "empty "....a long reverb decay ...or a well pronounced delay effect will give more impact to that word and so on. So bottom line ...its really important to know and understand what the singer is really saying.
Yes I totally agree with you on this point - as you said, not just to spot errors but to accentuate the feeling of the lyrics. I do realize that if someone's working on a lot of projects on a tight schedule and unfamiliar with the language, it might not always be possible, but for me (vocal) music is about the emotion , the lyrics and what the artist is expressing and that should be what your job is about prioritizing, so to just say 'I don't need to know what she's saying' is missing a massive part of the whole picture in my opinion! Good point well made.
Nice!
whats the song in the beginning
It is an unreleased track from Debi Nova, used in the presentation: ua-cam.com/users/DebiNovaMusic
I hope they'll sell billion of this unit but I'm not sure about $7k.... or I'm missing how is going down Audio market!
McDSP....my son heard "Nick Diaz peed"
X-men need to put u in the next movie and also mix master the audio lol
Does anybody knows what is that song in spanish ?
5:10 Can someone fill in the blank here, sorry I don't understand what Tony is talking about. Only 808-ish I can get from Elish is a few songs with the very typical trap snare (distorted 808 snare). Is it a trap genre thing? What am I missing here?
Second half of Billie Eilish - Bad Guy. Edit - more like 4/5 than halfway
808 has become a term for long sustained bass-drum used as the main bassline, instead of tr-808 samples specifically.
@@evighvitveis Oh Right! Thanks.
That I know but that's nothing Phineas came up with.
hes talking about the song xanny
@@youngalexander3166 Thanks, not sure though that I think he has a relevant point but that doesn't matter at all, it's just subjective to each and everyone. And Tony is a great mixing engineer even if I don't agree with him (or understand his point)
: )
Tony! Money is more important than giving someone a hand right?
@SonicScoop what is the intro song before the video starts?
It is an unreleased track from Debi Nova ua-cam.com/users/DebiNovaMusic
techno is always leading the way in what he is talking about, its a genre based on the future
We need Serban Ghenea

How is he using something like chickenhead without a rack of outboard gear?

$7,000 is kinda steep for 16 channels of pseudo analog compression in 2019. It would have to be infinitely better than the modeled plugins that are out now, and I'm not convinced of that. It seems like 10 years too late to me.
No pseudo-compression at all. Real analog compression with real analog components :)
Believe me, this shit is worth the money. Once you go McDsp you will never go back.
@@McDSPTV I'm not trying to discredit the APB but I'm confused how you can call something a 'tube limiter' when there's not a single tube in the box? From my understanding, it's an algorithm and 'some' analog components.
Damien Lewis typically the bigger the box and power supply, the bigger the processor allowing for more algorithms, which results in deeper better sound quality.
The price is out of this world

why does he constantly throw his so called assistant under the bus.....lol
He has RTS
a long McDsp ad
just a sales pitch for McDSP box :(
Fact that this is an audio masterclass and the reverb is so distracting is throwing me off.
i wonder if any of the people behind the production of this series have any idea how to mix because the mic levels of the lecturers are terrifying.
soon AI is doin it for us guys
This lecture is sooooooo boring
