[@africanrevolution3551]

Recently got into Plugin Alliance and what I REALLY like about this brand; THEY ALWAYS HAVE Mixing tutorials showing and explaining how to use their plugins!!!! GREAT BRAND!!!!!

[@PluginAllianceTV]

We really appreciate the great feedback. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your sessions!

[@ShynAwkward]

I like this guy! - Very insightful with actual music production (and not just the endless, generic 808 drum loops of this era).
More Erik Griggs, please!

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Thanks for the great feedback and letting us know!

[@blu2th101]

Thanks so much! I’m definitely down to do as many of these as PA and its fans would like.

[@JoeyFTL]

​@@blu2th101came for the mixing, stayed for the tasty drum playing! Much respect, one would think it's your primary instrument

[@blu2th101]

Thank you! The drums are Superior Drummer played with my Roland V-Drum Kit.

[@e.apollis2877]

[@mrkas811]

Niiiiiiice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally a return to song with soul, Groove, and feeling! ;-) 🙂

[@groovedealerfeaturing-ashl6476]

EXCELLENT video!
REAL music with REAL musicians and REAL singers!!! We need more of this, not endless pitch quantised robots, 808s or guitars clipped beyond recognition.
MORE of this guy too, highly insightful and talented!

[@cateador12]

Awesome video. Really surprised me that he recorded this as singer, made this whole complex production and arrangement and then mix and master it. What a Titan. Thanks for showing the project and also share your vision about the mix.

[@thegroove2000]

[@ulyg505]

"Adventures in the land of Music" type beat

[@DICARLOPRODUCTIONS]

Great track, and Good advice!!! One thing, what plugin did you use for the TalkBox vocals, and how did you set them up?

[@Protectaline]

Erik Griggs is worth the mega XL subscription fee alone! I have a new UA-cam hero. Any chance a nice person from Plugin Alliance could list the plugins that he uses in each chapter of this video please?

[@SteveAdamsChannel]

Thank you for the song and post! If you don't mind sharing, what are you rendering your mixes at? They come thru very clear on the You Tune system on my desktop system. What Lufts/volume level are you Mastering at?

[@blu2th101]

Im currently mastering with CloudBounce. I bounce my mixes through my SSL master bus compressors for that SSL flavor with the famous “glue” settings peaking at -6ish db. Then I pull that into cloud bounce and loudness maximize at 10-12. If I don’t get exactly the balance I want I go back to the session, make changes to the mix, and bring in a new bounce.

[@jesperborgstrm3385]

Gave me Ryan Leslie vibes

[@RestLer-]

Hey, what was on Master Bus?

[@travonsinclair9135]

Erik, you mix this track on the KRK Rokit 10-3 G4? Are these your primary monitors?

[@blu2th101]

Actually I mix with IK Multimedia iLoud Precision monitors. They changed my life. To beat them you have to go to a much higher price range. Check em out!
