surprised not to see Unisum in your list since you were raving about it when it was released
Thank you David! I gotta say one thing I really enjoy about your YT videos is your sound quality. When I listen at my mix position through my monitors I can clearly hear your examples... it’s a great way for me to get a little bonus reference/ear training. This was great!
(Well, they’re all great!)
Ha! OMG, I had totally forgotten about Waves Linear MB.
What a gem! Thanks bro! You are so inspirational 🔥🔥🔥
You Studio tours videos were straight fire, always talking about important stuff and work. Would be cool to see more, yeah, who´s got the time for dat when you are mixing fire all day. Cheers
Pro C2 ...Fabfilter hands down my favorite!!!
I use FF plugins, but I'm addicted to cytomic the glue for the 2bus and usually the drum buss. I found out though that a lot of times on the drum bus if I combine cytomic with the "open sounding buss" setting and Pro C with the "Deep field" setting it seems to work well
@@proverbalizerAnalog Obsession Buster SE, Lindell Audio SBC, Elysia Alpha and Acustica Ivory 5
I gotta try my Pro C2 on the mix bus. I’ve never used it
LOVE you, brutha!! Thank you for always sharing your valuable knowledge! 💪 🧠 🤘
David, you're such an inspiration
Thank you for sharing this. The LinMB was surprising. And the API, that’s an interesting one. Really want to check that out for more than smacking. I’ve had it for so long. The MJUC I call the glove when I find the right signals for it. It smoothly wraps around whatever I put in it. Think I‘ll try as many as I can tomorrow. Have the SSL buscomp 2. Love the channelstrip on dialogue so maybe that bus company can help on a 2bus. Thanks again, especially for the inspiration to try more.
Great content! Thank you David :)
Thanks for this shootout! Always trust your reviews in action
Nice reggea mixes. Sound good iyah!
1st comment. Thank so much for your lessons. Very useful channel and greetings from Colombia 🤙🏼
Back when I was working in a "big" studio mixing 12 hours a day on the 9000J...>>>
I was at my assistants place mixing after work "in the box". I pulled up the Waves SSL bus comp and I was able to get the snap like on the desk very close. Good call man!
Thanks for the great video David! Do you have any opinions on any of the Black Rooster compressors?
Thank you for explaining how the kotelnikov works! I have the free version but did not know how and when to apply it.
So many compressors on the market that's crazy. Love how every comp will sounds so different.
I personally like on the 2bus the SPL Iron, Shadow Hill, SSL x-comp, Vertigo VSC2 (wish so much I could have a hardware one) and Elysia xpressor
Yeah dude Shadow Hills is a beast. And the Vertigo adds movement to the compression. Cool to see someone using these too:)
I was actually testing Chandler for Console 1 whole day today lol I love it on this vintage mix you had there 😍😍😍 Never thought of some of them to be used on 2bus 🤔 might as well try it. I am however huge fan of Vertigo VSC-2. This is my go to compressor on 2bus. Absolutely brilliant! Someone from the industry recommended it to me a while ago and the first time I heard I was like damb.... 😱😍 I think Im obsessed with it 😂😅😜 but I guess we all have our favourites. Really cool video! Thanks
The C1 version is actually better than the standalone, because you can have the THD and the comp in the same instance 👍
I’ve been using it on my 2 bus almost exclusively since i got it for Console 1. Also been using the American for my drum bus. They seem to work quite well together for me.
Thanks David!
Thank you David! Any thoughts on WAVES pi ?
Really appreciate that you don’t cave to trends. You talk about Waves plugins that you love when it’s popular to hate them, and you don’t worship Plugin Alliance the way some people do. You come off as a lot more real lol.
Thank you! I mix for a living, I use what it works, not what has the best marketing 😄
suggestion for next video: How to learn everything I need to know to become a great mixing/mastering engineer online (besides your channel ;-P) - there are soo many things to know! classic tricks like the pultec push pull trick, parallel compression, etc. ... modern techniques, genre dependent mixing, eq, compression, saturation ... how did you do it? Advice to people who are struggling with this? Thanks David!
Amazing!!!!!
What do you think of cytomic the glue?
I agree... I shy away from makeup gain on this type of "role".. I want to hear it turn it down.. I dont want to hear the makeup gain. I still love the api as well. Great video. thank you
Tried the Sonible compressor on two bus? Very transparent and pulls everything together sweetly.
Thanks for recommending our PSP oldTimer MB.
Of course, it's an amazing plugin!
When starting a mix in a Bus comp. How do you go about ajusting it (I mean after gain stage and balance)
Which would you recommend best for bus mastering? Wesaudio NG bus or Neve Portico ii?
Waves LinMB was spot on, it’s in every mixi did in the last five years, indispensable
Analog Obsession Specomp. It’s free. I shot it out, exactly level matched, against 30 others. Including several on this list. It won with flying colors. Punchier, thicker, more dimension and more open highs. Softube VCA gets an honorable mention, too.
I've been really digging the bx townhouse on my mix bus but the waves ssl has been a work house for me for years.
townhouse is too fuzzy and hairy for me - its like why do i buy fancy hardware to just fuzz it up at the master stage. Just my thooughts
Lmb has been my favorite for so long now. i'm loving it after upward compression on the c6 these days! Lets not forget low and broadband eq, bit off topic but q3 can't compete with that, stereo bands or not.
Hi, thank you for sharing those tips! I know it depends of the song and genre but what's your go to 2bus compressor for reggae music? Thanks again!
If more traditional style reggae I'd say Successor, more modern, dance hall stuff, Wes NG. If you mean plugins, you can't really go wrong with the LinMB coupled with MJUC just for color. API 2500 for more modern stuff
Waves G master comp vs Cytomic the glue ? Thanks.
PLEASE MAKE VIDEO 10 LIST BEST REVERB PLUGIN
Super useful 🙏🏆thoughts on izotope vintage comp?
It's good, I kinda forget about it
Try the sknote SDC (shadow hills esque) on 2buss; great coloring.
I was the first one reviewing it
man the music you mix or master sounds incredible, how much do you usually charge to mix and master a song?
Thank you, please write to bookinghfs@gmail.com for quotes and availability
what exactly do you mean by your 2 bus I just want to make sure I'm fallowing that correctly , also with all these options (i thought i had to many plugin options) how do you decide which one to use not just this type of compression but all plugins aside from your Outboard gear .
This guy is literally Chads personified I love it
Hey David, have you ever tried the Bx Townhouse Compressor from Plugin Alliance? If so what are your thoughts on it as a 2bus compressor?
I did, just another pretty gui
Haven’t tried the Softube Zener and I’m pretty sure there is a big difference but i would like to ask you if you have any opinion between the Zener and Waves TG MASTERING comp/limiter section.. ?
I have tried the TG very very briefly, so take my words with a grain of salt or two. It seemed way to heavy handed to me for 2bus use, both behavior and color, and the Zener is already there almost so yeah. Zener saturation tho' is better on basically everything
that new moon song is beautiful
Where can I find that awesome song?
Curious what you think of Weiss DS-1 mk3 as a mastering comp? Also curious if you think trackcomp’s Zener is viable for a 2bus.
I did an entire mastering course on the DS-1 ua-cam.com/video/b3wwpLeqbN8/v-deo.html
I'm not familiar with trackcomp, but the chandler zener can be a hit or miss for 2bus, nowhere near my first choices
1st song's intro sounds like interstellar theme
Hi David! A question: I become a member a few days ago, where can i see the only members content?
Welcome to the fam! Here's the playlist, auto updated every time a members only video is added, bookmark it because unfortunately youtube doesn't allow us to notify members, they like to make things difficult. ua-cam.com/video/DFxjfsrVF6g/v-deo.html
The best bus compressor is Ssl Bus Compressor 2. I did a comparison between waves ssl g compressor which I use often on master and I was surprised how clean and analog Ssl bus compressor2 sounded. I bought instantly with uc1 that comes with ssl channel strip 2 I thing ssl plugins are the best sounding plugins in general.
You can't compare the channel because they are modeled after two very different consoles. But yes the new SSL bus is a good plugin.
I use the Klanghelm Vari Mu exactly as you stated, for colour, hardly any, if any needle movement Threshold (usually) between -6 and -12, Just adds a little glue and sees to fatten the low end nicely too.
Between -6 and -12 I can use the threshold almost like a fatness control, above -12 and I tend to get pumping that does not fit what I do (but would be great on some 50's style rock n roll, or even a trashy old skool punk band, I make Proggy Groove metal, so it does not really fit my sound). I use the free version so you cant control the saturation, but it colours it even if you leave all controls at 0
Cool! I am using Klanghelm Vari Mu (paid version) on 2bus too :) (with Klangheml DC8C at 1st position)
@@rift81 yeah, me too! The color is beautiful, and what a classy unit!
the linmb is my secret weapon, eversince i discovered how to use it 2 yrs ago.
Thank MBTV! I've been using C4 on master....LinMB better for master buss?
It's better, usually, in mastering (which is not your master fader, that's your mix) because more transparent. I'm not a fan of mixing into a multiband compressor, but that's just me, many do it successfully. I'd prefer other multiband comps to C4 tho', Drawmer 1973 for example (Softube) or McDSP or PSP Oldtimer are all better choices depending on the style
@@mixbustv Hey thanks MBTV....you are the real deal, generously answering questions! Mix on Brother....I always pick up gems here! You like those better than Fabfilter MB?....was going to pick that up.
hey dave, i saw u loved kazrog's true iron. do u by chance had a listen to "true dynamics"?
Funny you asked, I made a video on 2bus compressors and I wanted to include it but this version apparently has some issues (with my system), but it's a great plugin!
@@mixbustv ah yea just as i thought. thank u for the response n hope u have a great day!
Which country are you.. I want to come and see you
Besides a Fairchild emulation and the amazing MJUC. What other vari mu compressor do you recommend for mastering purposes?
I haven't hear a Farchild emulation that actually sounds like a Farichild but, the Vari Mu I guess is the only one I'd use for mastering purposes. Mu are very specific, definitely NOT a go to for mastering, not for me
Thanks.
Logic Pro X default compressor is imo among the best. The division into various kinds of compressors as one of the key benefits.
Greg Wells, legendary producer, sound engineer and multiinstrumentalist who produced and mixed and mastered Mika's first album said that after all the hours working on the album, put the phase Waves multi band comp and Mika jumped saying "that's it. Now it's sounds like an album".
That circa 2004? It does fuckin look horrible though. Lol
what was the name of the hip hop song? bouncy! plus the the compressor you used was perfect
Which minute? There are 3
@@mixbustv the Kotelnikov song
I think im joining...
Dropping more gems
Another great video. Quite surprised Elysia Alpha didn't appear on the list, but with so much choice out there you couldn't have everything!
This video also goes to show just how good your ears need to be in order to really use the subtle changes to best effect.
2bus comps and mastering comps are very different, I made a point of not mentioning mastering comps because I hope slowly people will realize the difference
@@mixbustv lesson (literally) learned
26:02 Is it me, or this "input drive" knob doesn't do anything? At +24dB I'm not hearing any distortion!
it is veeeery subtle indeed for a +24db boost. To me it sounds like it adds a little thickness
Happy you didn’t mention Unisum because I want to keep it only for me.
I didn't mention it because that's a mastering comp, not a 2bus comp, and people are already confused enough already thinking they're the same thing
@@mixbustv I'm sorry but what is the difference between the master bus and the 2bus ? I thought those were just synonyms...
@@mixbustv I’m in this picture and I don’t like it
I’ve always wondered, out of the (so far) 18k views on this video, how many actually make a living?
Wish I understood what the knobs were actually doing more haha. It’s a lot to learn.
Check my ultimate compression series, all you need to know about compression is there
@@mixbustv You da man David👍
what do you think about uad plugins?
They're good, silly to have em tied to hw
PA doesn't seem very popular in this "part of town", but the Neold U17, V76U73 and Townhouse Bus 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶😱
If you want to support a company that goes after anyone who dares to say ANY of their plugin is less than stellar..
@@mixbustv Aaah, I see.💯👍🏾
I’ve got the Neil’s v76U73, but I’ve only used it on vocals. I have the Townhouse Bus and it’s very nice.
What if i don't want my Music to be compressed. It's messing with the overall analog mastering. I prefer proper headroom control and leave the mix to go through the hardware SSL when i send the mix to trusted Master Engineering
2bus processing is not mastering, 2 buss compression is not mastering.
@@mixbustv Yeah i know.. i said what if i don't prefer to compress my sound..
HOW DO WE GET TO LISTEN TO SOME OF THE MIXES ...THE SONGS WERE DOPE
Oh boy :D let's try (all things I mixed/mastered): 1st would be Bells of January by Syndey Valette, 2nd Colors Void Mess, 3rd is one of my full productions rec, mix and master Photo by Deezel, 4th Kaos India Burning, 5th New Moon by The Nest, 6th Nova Melodious After the Hurt, 6th Levisyll don't remember the title but I'm not sure is out yet, did 2 albums with him. 7th Nuclear by the awesome Izzy T (I just did a new one with her, out soon), 8th No Sunshine Nova Melodious feat Steve Fresh, 9th Levysil again Tek Weh (not sure if released), 10th Face Emir Gotham City (new one again coming soon)
@@mixbustv thanks man they all sound exquisite ...
Ha ha that example track... Wtf
I learn more off David pissing about with a plug in than I do off 90% of YT instructional videos lool
😄🙏
@@mixbustv I feel its a little misleading that you use diffrent tracks on diffrent compressors. You should be using the exact samt track for all compressors so we really could compare. Never the less, thanks for a good video!
You should have mentioned DynOne
Why?
@@mixbustv I think that, in contrast to most of the ones that were mentioned, DynOne is a very clean sounding Compressor with parallel mode and Center/Side mode (not like regular M/S).
Sooooo.....will these Levysil songs ever be released?
Don't know, it's up to the label (Arkangel Records)
@@mixbustv They sound fantastic in every aspect....from mix to vocal performance etc.
Api 2500 is the one for me. I noticed you don't use UAD plugins. Any reason why?
Yeah, I find that to have plugins tied to an interface is pretty dumb, especially when the interfaces are not better than what I have and cost more
@@mixbustv gotcha
@@mixbustv what interface sounds better than apollo?
Sorry but never heard this term before, can anyone explain me what 2bus means ?
It’s another term for the master fader. Your main stereo output typically. Also called mix bus as well, i.e. MixbusTV….
@@audio_odyssey okay but in this case he doesn't call it a master buss per say because the track is gonna get sent to a mastering engineer right ?
@@WAERedthunder I think you may be confusing mastering as a process with the master fader. Master in terms of the fader is just the main one that controls all others if you will. Mastering a stereo track once mixed down is a separate process, typically done by someone other than the mix engineer on a different system. Usually this would involve bringing the track to commercial level, making any minor tonal adjustments, and if applicable making sure the tracks balance well with each other, for example in the case of an album. Hope that makes sense and helps a little bit.
@@audio_odyssey yes I know that, thank you, it's just that I have always heard the term master bus or mix bus and never heard the term 2 track, just wanted to know if there was a real difference
Yes, they are all the same. Funny how many terms there are for the stereo output. Happy mixing!
Nooooo I'm the 666 likes of this vidéo.... It's a sign ????? or not !!!!! : D : D : D
And i'm not feeling alone anymore, using the Linear Phase Multiband !!!!!
Demonetized at 29:38 💀😂
🔥API2500.
using 2bus comp on finished tracks xd
You cant get the pluin to do the same thing because you have the hardware so you are not going to invest the time. With plugins you can have the same results, but with diferent paths and methods. Never with emulations.
No you can't hage the same results
there si nothing like "best compressor" . if you don't tweak the knobs just randomly, you can do with one compressor and one equalizer of any brand. just stop listening to the marketing bullshits
That must be why there are 213248359 compressors and people buy them. Stop posting BS on the channel pls
@@mixbustv of course, and you can recognize all of them. in a blinded test, you would burn out completely in identifying which effect plugin was used.
No one need 10 compresor.
Not if this ain't your job no.
@@mixbustv The real ssl compresor and you can do all
