I love how just adding the BB Tubes to a lead vocal and just bumping up the knobs really pulls the vocal forward in the mix. Really solid plugin.
Dan Cooper just does not sleep ! He cranks up videos and howtos all the time ! Wherever i go on youtube searching for Waves plugin tutorials there is Dan Cooper !
BB Tubes does add odd and even harmonics within the Beauty and Beast modes, as I've been demo'ing it and I'm liking the results, gonna pull the trigger on it...
I’ll dig into these again ASAP.
Great! Feels like the old times!
Mannn! Thanks you all for this video its a game changer 🙏🏼
Haven’t spent much time with the J37 but loVe Magma Tubes and used it on a very recent production.
It hasn’t reached ‘every song’ status like the Renaissance series, but still a very nice sounding plugin.
Great saturation, easy to use. Love it.
Thanks. I'll give it a go in my coming up cover.
Excellent suggestions. Great plugins. Thank you for this :)
When engaged everything gels together and comes alive with warmth and analog crunch.
Mix song as usual and add BB tubes to the the master bus. That’ll do it.
Has a fellow producer tell me the power of tape saturation on every track including the 2-Bus. So I loaded up U-He's Satin and placed it on every channel including 2-Bus in the default setting. Set the auto level gain and pressed play. Track sounds way too bright now. Went back and re-routed all channels through a Satin Return set at 50%. Much better results. Now learned that tape saturation is a subtle effect used very sparingly.
I really would love to see someone compare this plugin to a real J37. Relab did a direct comparison of their LX480 plugin to a real Lexicon 480L. That takes guts and wish more developers would do the same because lets face it. At some point these old machines will become inoperative, parts will be near impossible to find and techs with the know how to repair and maintain will be long gone.
excellent video, as usual. info like flutter is amplitude modulation, and wow is pitch, you can't even find in manuals, when trying to work your way around applying them. there's only marketing bullshit like "flutter is the legendary sound, while wow is character, grit, fatness, smoothness, warmth and roundness".
i usually go in the tubes first, emulating a preamp on the way to the tape machine, for the "recording" part. then go into the console, through the line preamp, for "mixing". other than that, this is the process i go through on every track. and instead of the tape delay, i will use a live room ir slightly blended in for everything, for some 3d texture, and roundness. it also helps with the mood, the depth, and the way everything sits over each other.
it's amazing to me how, after all these trials and experiments, the best sound that you can get in the box is the one that actually replicates the big studio analog signal chain. must be a reason for it.
what IR (impulse responses] do you use please? I'm really interested because I don't hear many people using it . .. I use Vienna MIR pro 3D .
What if we want to do the opposite and add some chill?
Question, do you have to put this chain on every track, or would you be able to apply this technique to the mix buss as a whole, instead of adding it to every individual track?
The idea is to put it on your mix buss as a whole.
No matter how hard they try, nothing will sound like good old huge heavy transformers with 240V rails.
I'm a bit confused. I understand what you say about deciding what settings I like best for the J 37, making those settings into a preset and putting that preset on every track to get consistency. (After all it only be one J 37 machine recording, (mostly) all the tracks at the same time. So just one machine sound for everything.)
BUT, what about the BB Tube that comes AFTER the J37 ? Can/should this have different settings for each track?
please advise. Thanks.
It's up to you. Nothing is set in stone. Generally speaking the advise to use the same settings on J37 is to maintain color.
Can this plug-in chain be used on a more modern metal song? Would you use this on high gain guitars? Or a modern metal base tone?
Yes
Peter-Add the BB Tubes to your rhythm guitar mix bus and hear what happens.
A little something I started doing is using BB_Tubes instead of a Tubescreamer going into the amp. The pre- and post-EQ knobs are great for that.
классс!!!!
👍
BB Tubes or Greg's mix ?
Not seeing any credit for the band making that beautiful song! What gives?
ios version ?
Are you mixing on an iPhone?
@@Octwavian ipad
We have some iOS compatible plugins which can be found here: www.waves.com/audio-plugins-ios
BB Tubes & J37 are unfortunately not compatible with iOS at this time.
Big mix energy 😂 😂
That's facts but you know each track has a different character you could exploit with placing plugg in on individual tracks
🤔 Is it just me but I don't hear the difference 🤷🏽♂️
me too😂
I hear it on the snare, on my phone speaker
It depends on your room acoustic
😂😂😂👍
I was getting ready to hear a difference when he switched it on but the first thing that came on was that huge cymbal crash 😂.
I hate it when they don’t volume compensate. It’s called cheating.
all i hear is softer and louder volume. i dont hear any significant changes
What are you listening on?
@@dancooperwaves3685 It is louder though? Why aren't you showing us this at the same level?
@@LG-bi1sr i would say 90% demo on UA-cam are like that, they bypass something and the most changes we can hear is the volume becoming louder. They should do it at the same volume level like you said for before and after differences.

Softer sound is what they mean my rounding out the edges. It's nice for limiting. You Can let louder mix this way
