Acoustic guitar is missing in the cheatsheet. Also, it would be nice to see piano and organ as next instruments in the series (pop / rock context, of course). Thanks for the great work.
The download link doesn't work for me. Using 2021 M1 Pro. Any ideas?
whenever i see an engineer with a sleeve tattoo i instantly feel confidence in whatever they are saying hahaha...
I keep coming back to your videos for one reason - you have a great ear for what sounds good. You also have the experience to know that "what sounds good" depends on the context, as demonstrated in this video. Thanks for sharing these tips with the community.
awesome series of eq for different instruments and voice, and with the free chart, Thanks so much man, for giving us such a priceless information for free. Really cool!!!
Nice addition to the other ones. Thanks Jordan.🤟
Bonjour. J'aime beaucoup ta façon de travailler et surtout ta conception sonore de chaque instrument à l'intérieur d'un mixage. Bravo!
Just want to pick up on the bit later in the vid where you point out the 'less well recorded guitar' had too much 1K vs the first that needed more. Bravo! Too many videos say boost here, cut here etc but never tell you what level it should be at. That just leads to people copying settings etc
Like with kick i think just EQing 3-4 completely different samples for the same track would is more helpful than just showing what needs to be done to one, implying that will work or all.
So that's why I think this vid is great, your showing how to achieve good results from completely different examples, and that is waaaay more helpful
YES FINALLY some acoustic!! I've often found that some amateur level guitars also have a plastic-y build up at around 4K... Great video! I would love to see a video about choirs & gang vocals!! That stuff can be super unpredictable to fit in just right - especially with a lot of frequency masking. Great work!!
Love this series ❤ but the Song Is Amazing!!! I've digged that chorus!
These magic freq. videos are a HUGE help! Thank you so much! I downloaded the pdf and use it all the time. I was wondering if you'd make a video for piano? Very dynamic and hard to pin down. I used "Rooms" on one piano and "Background vox" on another and it did sound pretty good. But hoping you could help us understand the piano frequencies to boost and cut.👍
Sick! I really dig this!
whats the name of the song please thank you!
great stuff as usual
Can you update the mixing cheatsheet with the go to EQ and maybe compression for acoustic guitar please? And what about making a video about piano/keyboard? I'd be really glad about it!
pianos sometimes can be a nightmare to mix because there are a ton of resonant frequencies next to each other
@@huberttorzewski that’s one more reason to make a video about mixing pianos
Soothe plug-in is really helpful for these kinds of instruments
@@joeyvpoisonfree really? I will start the free trial
@@alessandrosummer Yes really, I cannot live without it for overheads and even guitar busses lol it is really really really good
haha, was just waiting for this!
great content. When is that song released, loved that song lyrics and mixing 👍
I've found your videos amazing. I'd love to hear your thoughts on fingerpicked guitar as well. I swear by your cheat sheet.
how to make Tommy Emmanuel ACOUSTIC Guitar sound?
Thanks great vid , I do a lot of acoustic guitar songs , I can never get them sounding good, I will try these out for sure, for the example that wasn't recorded that well , what likely is the problem , mic placement? it sounded similar to my recordings lol.
Good singer!
What microphones did you use. The acoustic fully dry sounds amazing
Hi Jordan, really enjoying this video series.
Have you considered a video for other acoustic/orchestral instruments? I'm working on a project with a (midi) saxophone that's proving very difficult to tune the EQ into something rich & full. I'd be curious to know how the same principles discussed in this series would apply to that!
I feel cutting some low mids around 150 hz would be a good starting point, I feel these instruments have a build up in those frequencies
That singer is BADASS! 🤘🏻🔥
Liked a lot too! *-*
Good video… as someone who mixes acoustic in almost every project (country / folk / blues are common projects in my studio), I find I EQ very similarly. I would add, though, that a lot of times I have to cut some at 3-5kHz because guitars can get really jangly and “ringy” at those frequencies. But, like you said, so much depends on the engineering, context, and the actual acoustic used.
You must be mixing a lot of Taylor acoustics lol my full time artist uses one live that’s incredibly difficult to mix often
@@chuckcostello5167 With Taylors especially 714, 814 and 9 series I find myself cutting some high frequencies as opposed to adding if it's a solo guitar and vocals. If it's a full mix then it sits much better without adding much. Maybe 1db at the most....
Maybe some higher pitched instruments like an ukulele need more often a cut in the upper mids
What’s the name of this song? It’s beautiful! Also great informative video!
Which artist is this song by? Cracking tune
I’ve got a great sounding acoustic guitar but for some reason, whenever I record it, it picks up some kind of G string buzz that you can’t hear in the room. It’s weird and it’s doing my head in! How do I fix that?
Would you do the same on a 12 string acoustic?
Am I crazy, or is the tuning a bit off in the first part? Probably the b string is a bit flat if it's played how I picture it.
I would LOVE to see a video where you breakdown how you fit the Artist Mix into your workflow.
I like the track, what is it?
If My room have acoustic deficiences, Can I fix this with EQ?
Does anyone know the name of this song? Thank you.
👍
What song is this? :)
Download link doesn't work for me.
This song!! Who is it??
Hi
Synths please!!!!
this was super helpful （╹◡╹）
You really need to use a more surgical EQ for this series. The Waves plugins are notorious for replicating the inaccuracies that were present in the original hardware units.
After watching this... I'm just going to rerecord the guitar 🤣
I liked the second guitar recording better 💀😬🤔
Ok Riiight, but remember that this SSL G channel plugin is not only actually affecting just 1k, 5k, 10k, I thought It was worth mentioning this as it can lead to a lot of confusion....
How do you figure that
@@joeyvpoisonfree use EQ curve analyser with this plugin and you will see what’s actually going on👍🏻
