im living in a world where i can sit and watch a grammy award winning engineer in the business walk through a massive hit, right now on my couch during a pandemic....and people still complain in the comments. god bless.
@@vivivi14 appreciate it
What a world :D
Yo fr! 😂
AMEN!
Master with the Master! Great comment
Multiple frequency ranges “breathing” to their own groove. No wonder this song is a smash. The dynamics are crazy in this!
That sidechain on just the mid part blew my damn mind
Thats just the FAB filter MB doing the work there.
@@psysword lol, "just Fabfilter MB doing the work there", like the plugin just loaded itself into a specific track and done the work by itself without anyone's lead/tweaks. Watch your mouth mate, cause kids might take that statement too seriously. Stop giving credits to the tools, just ask Luca to mix with just the DAW's stock plugins as a challenge on the same song where you're mixing with the most expensive plugs out there and i promise you he'd still destroy your ass. Plugins doesn't mean Taste / Vision / Experience. It's not Fabfilter ProMB doing the work, it's the mixer who used it and how he did it.
Why
@@costinvaly1 I agree with your comment on where he would destroy anyone with standard plugins is correct but I have got to be honest with you since I bought fab filter plugins a couple
of months ago my mixes have gone up 10 fold. They are incredible and the features they have are crazy good. Pretty much only use Fabfilter now and soundtoys. Also plug-in alliance to a certain point.
Some people may easily take 10 years to reach the level of knowledge compressed in this 13 minute masterclass, amazing.
It's crazy the amount of dynamics this song has while being loud at the same time.
Luca = GOAT of mixing\mastering.
Gotta appreciate how he literally throws gems of knowledge if not secrets for free and for anyone to enjoy.
Producer : let's here it in the mix.
Reid : Time to headbang
Lol its so funny
Don't wanna see what happens when he listen to metal
I would never be able to focus seeing a pupet dancing around me! Thank you so much for this Tutorial, i learn a lot from Reid
am i the only one crying because of how is possible for us to watch a grammy engineer diving into the session of a worldwide hit?
This video was so inspiring. I couldn't stop smiling while watching this video. And hearing you guys geek out about mixing and mastering is really cool. Thank you Reid, for bringing Luca onto your show.
THis is pure gold. Thx for sharing
I love how everything about Luca is about some type of movement.
He has me thinking about music completely different now. All this goes so perfect with the genre too.

Great Thanks to Luca Pretolesi for dropping those powerful nuggets that can help to improve the overall quality of our future releases.
Thanks a lot for this tutorial. I learn a lot ever with Luca. I master my track thanks with his tutorial for "Light it up". He teaches a lot of the groove, doing the technical part artistic too. 🎚🎚
Amazin video reid already a big fab of your channel hope we can see luca again with you

PANNING THE ENTIRE PERCUSSIO, using multiband, paralel some panning to create side information doind thate evrything happening over 45 due to its on the high end does that panning.

🔥🔥🔥🔥
hollyy this guy is a genius i love his workflow
Grazie Luca!!!😊❤👍
great song
so much awesomeness holy frik
In the sidechain part, is he ducking the kick or the instrument. Or is he ducking everything else in the instrument except the midrange? What exactly is happening?
Dj Plink sidechain with compression just in that range of thevocal
He is expanding the midrange of that vocal triggered only when the kick hits= louder when kick hits and normal when there is no kick = more dynamic !
reid really one of the best on youtube!
fantastic giveaway! congrats to the winners and thanks sponsors!

Woah I can't believe it
This hit was made on studio one
Gem 💎
This is gold. Thank you for this.
mind blown ......
keep up the amazing content
hahah love how luca slides in in true puppet fashion
so much good information in this
Auto-pan on all the drums 🔥 🔑 ‘s
Yeah that plugin was one of those secret tricks lol
in parallel only above 4k to be exact
guys, contrast it's still important no matter what. He doesn't go "auto-pan everywhere", he's specific with it. Just because you'd put it everywhere over all your drums it won't make you any better, maybe worse at best. Because there's a great quote stating about contrast in life: "If everyone is a winner, then there's no winner no more." If everyone affords a lamborghini, then the lamborghini wouldn't be perceived as a special car anymore. Also, everything-the-same = no dimension a.k.a one dimensional, because there's no clear sonic variation. Variation is what takes a one-dimensional material sounding 3D. Be wise.
Priceless info Reid. Thanks!!
wish we could've seen his whole master chain :(
he doesn't master, he admitted that already. He sends it to an actual mastering engineer and go back and forth with feedback.
I was pretending to understand everything
lol
Lmaooo
Thanks man for the gems
So awesome!!!
Awesome!
Genius
Brilliant!! Thanks guys!!
cool Trick
HAHA I can’t take the puppet banging his head right next to a god himself.
Viva l'Italia!
This is absolute gold 🙌 I learned so much it’s 🤯
I didn't get what the fabfilter Pro MB is doing at 7:34??....can Reid explain that??
amazing!
Whoa 😳 this is amazing !
Awesome tutorial!
I loved this
Great video. Thank you!
I've been searching this song for so long I knew it was from j balvin but I searched it so much
