Dan loves a plug in, and that’s lucky for us because this has really made me think differently about applying effects blindly, just because that’s what people say you should do. Less is definitely more in this case, cheers Dan
Hi Dan, just wanted to say please keep on with your video concept for YT. Always great to watch your videos. Also I wanted to tell you what a great job you have done on the Appassionata Strings. Absolutely fabulous! This brings me to the next point. In one of your videos you asked about what videos your audience would like to see. Well I’ve got two ideas for you: 1. Please make a tutorial video about your piece for Appassionata Strings. In depth explanation about what the different strings player are doing and why. 2. Still waiting and hoping for your in depth review about the new MBP. You said to all of the people want to buy one “don’t fear” but honestly it would be great to see your machine in a orchestral context and how it’s dealing with multiple tracks and fx. So far thank you for all
Christian's intro: Hi there! Christian Henson from Spitfire Audio here... Paul's intro: Hi there, this is Paul Thompson from Spitfire Audio... Homay's intro: Hi, this is Homay from Spitfire Audio... Dan's intro: Hi, my name's Dan Keen. I'm a composer, producer, and musician based in London. Welcome back to my UA-cam channel. I hope you're all doing well...
Dan, great video as always. Thank you. Quick question on Seventh Heaven. I have the standard version and as much as I adore the sound, I find that it can affect my stereo instrument placement by bringing everything back into the centre. In other words, diminishing the stereo width. Have you noticed this in the Pro version?
Rarely these days, not because they're not great - they are - it's just a workflow thing really. I might make a video at some point about getting more out of stock plugins
there is nothing specific i do always and i call it interesting. What is really interesting i do one single time because it is made for some single situation. But i use to create a minimal feedback loop on reverb bus for ex., and combine convolution with algorithm reverb and compression. These hacks are nothing far away from the basic theory of mixing still…But to find the exact plugin chain and settings for a specific genre in your music or something like this , this would be for me the “hack”. I investigate my reverb code so to say , but the theory is not that hard: algorithm, convolution, track revert, bus reverb, long vs short reverb busses, or one single “room” reverb, and all plugins can be out before or after the reverb, with or without side chain. I also use the Tal reverb as a “pad”, as a floor for the room reverb that doesn’t affect the articulation. You can also pan is to make it audible , or expand the image of this one to the side, and leave the main reverb more for the middle.other hack would be to get sophisticated but with a simple technique, so i use one bus only, and control just the amount of sends. Important is to keep energy for the ears and for perception , and to not create factors that make an orchestral mix obscure to figure out when something goes wrong. For piano solo one has more time ;) Finally a nice thing i discovered is to mid-side the reverb , reinforcing the wet for the highs jn the side, and dry for the middle. There is so much to do, it is about mixing the reverb and understanding it it one of the most important mixing parameters, principally for film , mockup, and classical….
I suggested an auto-ducking reverb plugin in the comments section here, but the post was deleted. So I guess you folks will have to research that yourselves.
Seriously, such a helpful and standout video. Thank you! Big love bro.
Hi Dan, thanks for those superb tips. Any chance of a piano tutorial in the cinematic style you played here. Thanks, Nick.

These are so helpful for getting a better understanding of reverb.......thank you.
Dan, your concepts are awesome, well, as usually. Thank you for inspirations.
Major Jon Hopkins Vibe! Love this!
Fabulous video, Dan. Thanks a lot for these tricks.
Dang. This is awesome. Beautiful sound. Track spacer will be purchased ASAP. Brilliant idea to use that to any creative modulation. Thank you!
I really enjoy your tutorial especially you focused on things others do not cover.!!!!! keep it up!
This is really helpful and creative. Thanks for the tip! :)
Beautiful music and technical ideas, Dan!! Bravo!! Thanks!! 🙂
The gentle gran is beautiful. and free that's silly.

Thanks for your lovely comment! And I have a video about Appassionata coming next week
I'm definitely gonna try that delayed octave verb setting. Seems like the kind of setting that just writes the music for you.
Dang it Dan! now I need trackspacer lol. Very nice allowing both the piano and the pad to remain warm, but clear
Astounding!!!
Nice video Dan thought I’d mention Ad verb in logic does an ok reverse verb effect to
Excellent Dan, thank you.
So helpful as always! Thanks for sharing ❤️
19:02 Dan is surprised where his devil horns came from
Christian's intro: Hi there! Christian Henson from Spitfire Audio here...
Paul's intro: Hi there, this is Paul Thompson from Spitfire Audio...
Homay's intro: Hi, this is Homay from Spitfire Audio...
Dan's intro: Hi, my name's Dan Keen. I'm a composer, producer, and musician based in London. Welcome back to my UA-cam channel. I hope you're all doing well...
Haha! I do have a Spitfire intro too 😅
Adverb, logics underused native plug in does some ok reverse Fx
Hey Dan. I already own Cinematic Rooms. Is 7th an addition to CR or do you know if there is a big overlap between those 2.
I like this idea for a series: New Creative Ways to use your FX plugins! =)
You are a beast!

Thanks Dan! Please consider bringing gentle grand to Decent Sampler!
It’s in the works!
@@DanKeenMusic Awesome! Can’t WAIT!
Is there a similar "Sample Delay" (7.42) Plug in in ABE or other then LOGIC?
Thanks Dan! Very inspiring! But how do you set reverbs when using multiple libraries with different reverbs? For example Air Studios vs BBC?
Nice way to spend 20 minutes again thanks Dan.
Great video as always! Mic sounds kinda weird when listening on headphones though…
Hmm it sounds fine on my headphones - what kind of weird are you hearing?
What about the Reverb patches that you find in Logic Pro? I use them quite often, especially Chroma Verb !
Nice! Do you use the stock Logic reverbs at all or not really?
Rarely these days, not because they're not great - they are - it's just a workflow thing really. I might make a video at some point about getting more out of stock plugins
@@DanKeenMusic Nice. Thanks, Dan!
2:01 how do you open that search meny?
It’s called PlugSearch. Best $20 you’ll ever spend
@@DanKeenMusic Thank you, Dan I am forever in your depth.
