    "What is Nyquist. What does 'reaching Nyquist' mean?"
    Drew Townson's Answer:
    "The Nyquist theory states that, in order to accurately record analog sound in the digital domain, the digital sampling frequency must be at least twice the highest analog frequency.
    Since analog sound in the range of human hearing reaches about 22k, CD digital audio is 44K."

    Mick Guzauski - a true master. Had a brief conversation with him at MixCon in NYC. Really nice and humble guy for someone with such a successful career.

    One of the greatest mixers of all time, imho. His work on pop ballads is untouchable. Hope Dave and Herb have him back soon!

    Thanks for Pensado's place! It takes me about three hours to watch one episode because I'm checking out the songs that are mentioned, searching various terms and equipment used and opening my own mixes to try different techniques. Invaluable source of mixing and general recording info. Thanks again!

    Mick is a Genius, a master at what he does and has an undeniable passion for his craft! I have known him since the late 70's, and can say, he was destined for greatness from the start! This interview is incredibly generous of Mick, sharing these gems of engineering and mixing!! I hope all will realized that!! Congrats to Mick for another mega hit!!!

  • @AmpsforBuddha

    I've heard from him in the past saying, work in 15 minute increments then take ear breaks (our hearing becomes compressed after about that time). Also pick yourself up a Sound Level Meter, if you have not, they're rather inexpensive (Radio Shack). Maximum mixing levels should be below 85dBs.

    I can't complain about any of the guests you have, because this is such a great resource for all of us. Having said that, I wish you would have more guests like Mick. I love hearing the masters share their wisdom. These are my heroes (including Dave of course) who mixed music back when it sounded incredible to me. Now, here is my very selfish request that I have no right to make. Is there any way you could get Elliot Scheiner? Ok, I feel guilty for asking. Thanks for all you are doing!!

    One of my favorites so far! Amazing insight into the new Daft Punk record. If I may make a request, I'd love to see a prominent metal producer like Adam Dutkiewicz (Killswitch Engage, As I Lay Dying) or Devin Townsend (Lamb of God, August Burns Red)...If metal's just not your thing, I totally get it but itd be a fun contrast and a particular interest of mine. Cheers.

  • @caponsacchi
    @caponsacchi 7 років тому

    Mixers rule. When I go to an outdoor concert and the middle section is occupied by the sound man on risers with giant-sized boards, moving sliders up and down for as many as 20 musicians (i've seen the same with neophytes who use an iPad and virtual sliders)--I'm filled with a mixture of dread and awe because what I hear has as much to do with the mixer as with the musician. (I'm someone who can no tolerate most of my Alfred Lion Blue Note discs because of the "Rudy Van Gelder piano"--Masterpieces like "Kind of Blue" and "Time Out" could have been made only in a spacious studio with engineers sensitive to the individual touch of a pianist. RVG's records bring every instrument to the front, brightm deep and clear--but at a cost. Some of the instruments are distorted, and the space is flat, not 3-dimensional. RVG means hard bop played with lots of fire but no ambiance or depth. Roy DuNann (Capitol, then Contemporary) captured a different sound from the same instruments.

  • @cussem
    @cussem 11 років тому

    The show is amongst other things primarily about engineering (with everything that entails). My ears, sharpened by watching nearly all episodes, detected a detail that should be improved and I mentioned it. Has nothing to do with how much work is being put in the show or how much experience the team has.
    You failure to grasp that and especially your outrage over my request and your feeling of having to "defend" the show while there is NO ATTACK in the first place, SHOWS your immaturity.

    • @jonsubs9998
      @jonsubs9998 5 років тому +3

      You mean besides writing the music, planning the album, coming up with the theme and feel of the album, performing their parts, and managing the entire process so their creative vision comes to life? You are right, I wonder what they were really doing for those 4 or so years working on this thing. We gotta get to the bottom of this.

    Question for Dave or anyone for that matter.
    If you find out your monitors lack certain frequencies. for an over exaggerated example. between 90hz n 200 are down by about 5db. could you put an eq on your output to compensate for the lack of frequency response? then remove the eq when bouncing. theoretically it kinda sounds right? Just I can't afford baddass monitors yet.
    Thankssssssssss !!!! :D :D :D :D hope u understand what I'm trying to say haha XD
