Rick Beato= The most unstingy person on the internet with the real secrets, tips, tricks, and pointers on everything music. This might be the most valuable channel on UA-cam. Thank you Rick. You're the best.
also keeps me company on the drives down I5 and get to learn new and more stuff...
I concur
Yes the best channel hands down !
Rick's a great guy, that's why I support him!
You're punching down on a lot of good music production channels buddy......
1. Double track with an overdrive pedal, or use it when playing down tuned
2. Mute your strings( and/or use a noise gate)
3. Every instrument has to have it's own place in the mix(frequency)
4. Commit to a sound
5. Record it good, don't fix it later
6. Don't sinc up delay times(dont overlap them
Thank you kind sir
#5 is so important. Crap in = crap out. Get the best recording you can get right up front so you don't have to fix it later.
Andrej Ilievski Thanks for the recap!
Christopher Crepon The second one
Put a different delay time for every track
2. If you try to use a noise gate to accomplish what muting does you accomplish nothing. The point is to not let notes that are unintended into the performance. A gate will only silence the whole signal once it's below the set threshold. When the gate is open, while you are playing, the notes you don't want are still in the chord or melody.
14:01 "You don't need a gate; you just need to learn how to play."
Brilliant.
it's easy saying this with all the best equipments on his studio. Try to use a 2$ cable with overdrive on haha
Brutal! Like it!!
Nah, if you have a really noisy high-gain rig, you'll need a gate. All the technique in the world won't tame that beast
Rick, I know this comment is a week later, but I cannot tell you how valuable this information is and has been to me. I’ve been trying to follow the recording processes pre-loudness wars and this was a huge piece in that puzzle. I remixed a recording from a week ago and man, the difference is astounding. You can actually hear all the little nuances I placed in the recording that got washed out by the boominess of the guitar parts . People pay big money to learn what you give away for free Rick. I cannot express my gratitude to you for sharing your vast experience and knowledge. It is greatly appreciated my man! Thank you!
I had a 1970 Impala with a one-speaker stereo that only played Malcolm's guitar. It was great.
CaliforniaBrowngrass Malcolm > Angus
Then it wasn't a stereo it was a mono
@@chopperking007 Not if it was a stereo with one non-functioning speaker.
@@chopperking007 - One channel stereo is different than mono.
@@chopperking007 It was a damaged, malfunctioning stereo sound. The mono system means that you would hear everything in one speaker. He was hearing only 50% of the mix.
String muting is one of the most important things you can learn! I remember 30 something years ago when I was a beginner, my playing was so messy sounding until I discovered this vital technique.
Great video!
I like the stereo guitar ideas. Steve Cropper once said the perfect rhythm guitar part is one you don't hear until you take it out and then you noticed something missing.
I assume he was referring to a certain type of arraignment or song, cause as a general idea that makes NO sense to me.
It’s like an umpire during a baseball game. Maybe that makes sense?
Rick, I cannot thank you enough for all the help on guitar theory and tone! Your channel is so important to me in my search for the Holy GRAIL TONE! Merry Christmas!
Jam-packed videos from Rick Beato. I can mine them for days. Thanks for your generosity, Rick!
Thanks Rick. My home studio is modest but I want the most out of it. I've played guitar for decades but only now understand much of what I was missing. Now I'm on bass and drums as well, the tones are all so amazing. I want to capture as much of all of it as I can. Your instruction is invaluable. My experiences with teachers were less than stellar, admittedly because of my own deficiencies, as well as theirs. UA-cam is a godsend for instruction. I should probably get your book! Good stuff man! Your knowledge is appreciated, I'm learning a lot. Cheers Dude!
Awesome content we all can't thank you enough for all the time and effort involved in the making of these videos and your generosity in sharing them with all of us. Merry Christmas Rick you're a rockstar
"You don't need a gate, you just need to learn how to play." - Rick Beato 2018
But you need the Horizon Precision drive because it has a gate.
Tell that to Dimebag Darrell
Sick burn
He ain't wrong unless you're going for a specific tone.
Most players shouldn't NEED a gate.
Dummies talking about NEEDING to gate drums. ffs
That's beyond laughable.
@Christopher Agramonte WHOOSH!
Great advice, Rick. Not just for guitars but for mixing in general. Thanks, bro!
Hi Rick! Love your channel. This is a great video. A suggestion: If you can make a followup lesson with a end-to-end demonstration of how you do a complete mix of all instruments using all these ideas - it will be not only so much clearer but super-duper helpful. It doesn't have to be a difficult song, could be a simple one but if you can walk us through how you actually mix these tracks while taking into account all these factors you highlighted here - it will be fantastic. Merry XMas.
You said make a comment, so here goes... I watch your videos daily for hours. Not only for the broad expert coverage of all things music, but I'm amazed at your playing ability. You mention a song or a style of playing and immediately launch into flawless playing - and I learn from watching how you play as well. Thank-you and keep it up. I bought the Beato Book - it's a great learning tool. Many thanks again from Nelson, BC.
TONS of great info in this stream! Thanks Rick :)
tones*
@@eliakingCS Tons of commercials too.
Rick, thank you so much for these tips.
Using an overdrive to tighten up the bass. I can see this working with an open back combo which tend to be woofy
Best line ever : "You don't need a gate, you just have to know how to play" ... advice from the supercoach. Thanks Rick! Have a great Christmas and New Year 😀
Great video with tons of great info Rick!! Thank you so much. I found this video 2 years later, but it's timeless!
Some of your videos are pretty advanced. In this one, I know much of this stuff, as I have been playing a very long time, but I still enjoyed the video and I think its fantastic to share years of experience, and be able to articulate things that can become instinctive after years of playing. For people who are newer to to the instrument, its invaluable. Information we'd all love to have had access to years ago. Well done Rick!
Thanks Rick for sharing your knowledge with us. Crazy informative stuff.
Hi Rick, I love everything you do!! Your posts are my music lessons. I own the beato book and I love it!
"You don't need a gate, you just need to learn how to play" - I've been saying that for years now, to unbelieving people. Your channel rocks!
Love this! Thanks for the info! (And all the other great info you put out there!)
Merry Christmas Rick. Thanks for all the great vids.
been waiting to watch this since you announced it earlier in the week.. 45 minutes of content is incredibly generous. Thank you!
Merry Christmas Rick, love the lessons!
I've used high-pass and low-cut a lot for live, also.
Great channel man. I'm teaching myself guitar and bass (I am a classically trained percussionist) and your methodology is great
Rick, love you. You're so pure, rough and direct in the face. Big, great thanx from Germany. I learn so much.
Great session, Rick; thank you! Much health and happiness to you and the family in 2019.
Those stereo mixing tips BLEW my mind. I LP almost everything for EDM so I was snoozing a bit...reverb only guitar track woke me right up! Thanks!
one of the things i learned about tone is less is more. meaning you don't need as much of each effect that you are using as you might think. every effect control ,volume control, and tone control has a sweet spot!
Your love for everything music is contagious, brother. A person's true passion always shines through easily. Their eyes light up!!! This is an easy way to tell if someone is self loathing. Their eyes light up, when you change the subject to THEM. lol That wasn't meant towards you, Rick. I think that you enjoy sharing your knowledge to help other people understand your passion. I'm nowhere near as knowledgable as you, but I've always loved, and appreciated the fine details, when listening to music. You've helped me understand what those details are, that I couldn't quite put my finger on before. It's easier to engage with someone that loves what they do, instead of someone that's just doing their "job". You're a breath of fresh air.
Rick, your channel is a real treasure trove. Thanks for sharing!
great content as usual! ... and then masking tape comes along. luvvid.
have a wonderful christmas and thx for your insights, sir!
I as a 30 year player/writer/singer find myself here and consistently coming back to the Man who defines the word professional for this modern Guitarist, who can still sometimes figure out which end the sound comes out. Peace & Keep Rock'in Bro!
I've always liked adding a little bit of Chorus to room and recorded bass.
@@therugburnz neat. Gonna try that. Thanks.
Hey Rick, thanks for another informative video. I've learned a lot from your channel!
So much great knowledge in here. Thanks Rick.
This is a timely video as I have been trying to get the right sound for some time. Nice one Rick.
Thanks for the great stuff this year. Take a break for Christmas!
Thank you, Rick! Happy New Year!!
Great show, Rick.
Happy holidays.
Merry Christmas, Rick, To You And Your Family !
Thanks, For All That You Do !
Thanks Rick, I'm really into your recording technique videos
Always good Rick keep it coming I have learned heaps from you Thanks!!
Haven't recorded in years now, but I would always double track my guitars and use different tones and level of overdrive in each side. To avoid "big mono", which is what it sounds like if you don't do that. Or the common trick was always Fender in one speaker Gibson in the other.
You are the best teacher on the planet. PERIOD
Thanks so much, Rick...just watched the replay...excellent information!!! 💗💗💗
Rick, even after all these years I still found some very useful info in this video. Good job bro!
I've told so many guitar players something very similar. But I love how direct you put it... "You don't need a gate, you just need to learn how to play." lol. (That is everything!)
I recently started experimenting with low tunings and heavy strings (65 on top) and it's hard for me to get a that thick/semi-bright/drive tone I like. Taking your advice and plugging into an OD pedal with low gain has gotten me closer to what I like. After the OD pedal I use a Big Muff Fuzz pedal and the tone is getting better. I don't understand that shelf and hi pass stuff you'rr alking about, but the OD Pedal worked for me with my low tuning and heavy strings. Thanks, Rick!!!
Came here in 2020. This is why I first subscribed to Rick’s channel in 2018...The very first video I ever watched was a white board video on compression from Rick...To watch this channel over the last couple years has been amazing..Thanks Rick for all the videos! He has over a thousand videos now! So good as Rick would say....
Merry Christmas, Rick! Your Gibson sounds Great!
Merry Christmas Rick, thanks for your time.
Great advice, took me a while to learn the overlap of the bass and guitar and finding my sonic niche in each song
Keep it up man! Very informative. And entertaining.
Merry Christmas Rick. Lot of good stuff here!
Just watched this video, fantastic! Been searching for a while for a video on guitar recording techniques. Thanks
I always learn so much from your videos thank you very much
Learned a lot with this video. Thanks Rick!!!
Hello Mr. Beato...just bought "The Beato Book." Thank you for the Christmas discount! I really look forward to reading your words of musical wisdom. Have a Merry Christmas!!
Rick is the DALI LAMA of Music! 1000% Respect for Professor Beato! Thank you for your world class teachings!
Great video. Learned a lot. Hopefully use it on my next record!
Informative in spades.. I'm a Logic hack and long time guitarist. Been recording mostly with a handheld Zoom H4n and transferring to DAW. A goal is to begin recording in regular fashion to Logic tracks again. This info really helps my quest. I find all your videos interesting and informative. Thanks so much.
Great tips as always. Ans adding that overdrive is such a simple but effective tweak!
That was really good information, I have enough experience to understand what Rick is talking about. I just found myself saying yes, yes and yes.
Merry christmas Rick! Have a good one. Cheers from Portugal
Really some great tips! Thanks again.
Amazing info Rick! Thanks a lot!
You are awesome man. thanks.
This helped me a ton, thank you!
Domo Arigato Mr. Beato!!! Excellent information! I love my music, but I have a lot to learn about recording. Thank you for your help!!!
A little OT: When it's just you sitting in a chair, not a lot of moving forward and backward, the camera doesn't need to be set to autofocus. There's a lot of "hunting" going on in this video. If you can figure out how to put yourself in focus manually, you can leave it in manual and avoid that problem.
It’s a WebCam bro. These are free and not produced. What do you want them for free?
I was trying to be helpful.
@@JohannesLabusch It is said that no good deed goes unpunished. Somehow I'm not at all surprised he reacted the way he did; it doesn't seem like he is someone that can take any measure of criticism without immediate defensive reaction.
And with all the thousands and thousands of dollars of recording equipment laying around Beato's expansive studio, you'd think he'd have a camera in which he can disable the auto-focus. Probably his "webcam" has just such a feature, but he didn't bother to read the manual.
Hey guys, as a fellow musician with some experience with Rick in this particular area, lol... let me offer a bit of insight that I believe you'll agree is self-evident. - If you watch Rick for any length of time it should be obvious how seriously he works, and has worked his whole life, in the pursuit of making a difference in the world with music. It should also be obvious from the high-level content that he provides on this channel, yes for free, that he's tailoring it for serious students of music. - I think you'll also agree that it must be _very_ frustrating for a man of that caliber, who's _that_ serious... about _that_ noble of a goal, to be constantly dealing with petty criticisms (not saying that _yours_ was certainly) all-day-every-day from random posturing internet know-it-alls. That would be very frustrating indeed.
Realizing this... if we're being mature... shouldn't we cut the man some slack, lol? If he's sometimes sensitive to criticism, even well-intended "constructive" criticism, don't you think he's earned the consideration of our understanding? - Like I said, Rick and I had our moment, and it was a much bigger squaring-off than this believe me, lol, but I looked into my heart and took a step back and realized what I've shared here with you. - And don't think for a second I'm just some sycophant. Oh no, lol... quite the opposite. I question authority all the time. But I think you have to see things in perspective. And, in light of what's being freely given here, it would be very small of us to not be more understanding of the occasional gruffness don't you think?
When somebody offers you a bag of gold for free... you don't point out that the bag is made of burlap rather than silk, lol. - Even if you're just trying to be helpful. :D
In additio to muting and instead of using masking tape, you can double a hair band over the headstock and put over the strings just after the nut. When you do't want the muting you can just slide the headband behind the nut. Elegant technique and very useful. 🤗
Rick Beato is The man ! Thank You for all these videos!
Rick. Best video ever. Great information.
Great tip on the O/drive pedal - ive been 'big mono-ing' for ages - will try the o/drive.
RE: muting - I was obsessed with isolating signal and reducing noise for the solos, ive tried everything from masking tape to putting foam over the strings - as long as there was no open notes required.
This is why I like multi-effects pedals w/amp simulators for live performances. You can do a lot of EQ-ing that he's talking about in the studio. One click of the foot and I have a whole new set of pedals and tones.
I remember learning on my roommate's Les Paul and old tube powered Marshall stack. I've never played anything that got me much more than I could get out of that basic setup.
Great idea with the overdrive pedal for down tuned guitars!
Oh man... such a great tip! Thank you!
Thanks Rick. All good stuff there. Happy holidays and all the best to you and your crew for 2019 :-)
Love your work Rick. Damn that LP sounds awesome. Merry Xmas/Happy Holidays to all. Stay safe 🙏
Love your lessons Rick
100% GOLD this information. Thanks for everything Rick ... regards from Monterrey Mexico.
Thanks man. Great info
Some seriously good advice in this vid!!!!!
It may be a good idea to make a video explaining the differences between Eq and guitar compression for live and for study.
Regards
Good stuff , Rick!
dear Rick.....thank you for making me make me better....truth is king
My favorite guitar setup, I used three separate amps/signals. Guitar went into wah/volume and then a DOD IceBox (stereo chorus). One went through my Big Muff distortion into my "center amp" (my dad's old Sears Silvertone head going through a 15" Ampeg bass speaker). The second channel out of the Icebox went into a Boss Distortion and then a Boss DD-7 (magical delay pedal) w/stereo outs. Left went to an overdrive then Vox (left amp) and the right went to my Fender Twin (right amp). I don't know how well it would've worked in a studio, but in a 3-piece band it made it sound like I was 2 or 3 guitarists instead of just me. Depending on the chorus/DD settings I could go quantum.
merry xmas Rick🎄great channel
Beautiful LP!
Merry Christmas Rick lov ya
I got the horizon overdrive and it is awesome for heavy stuff especially. great video Rick! - Dave from Pittsford
Wonderful resource! Thank you!!!
I agree with your comments on "printing" effects. I am doing more of that with synth textures etc. Logics "Bounce In Place" makes it real easy to bounce down a track with 5 plugins on it and commit to audio. I will save the muted MIDI files in case I want to make changes later but 9 times out of 10 I just use the sound I bounced down. Bottom line is you need to commit or you just have too many options and too many tracks / aux channels etc.
Merry Christmas to you Rick!
