    I've *paid* for recording masterclasses that had less concrete information...

    OMG how many of these compressor videos have I sat thru and not understood or heard the difference. COLT!!!!! you are the MAN!!! when you had me listen to that vocal as you turned down the release time on the 1176 I could so easily hear the vocals getting pushed back into the mix. Also, using COUNTRY Artist for the example was so rare!!! Thanks so much for your work.

  • @hailemoses8586

    THIS ! Is the comprehensive and understandable tutorial I think we've all been searching/waiting for. Playing the track while making REAL adjustments helps much more than saying "this or that level is where you wanna be" Seeing and hearing the real time application of level changing , attack and release settings and practical application of setting the correct depth of the vocal in the mix. Good stuff bro!

    Thanks, Colt! You've really done a great job of demonstrating these effects. The concept of the release setting adjusting the nearness of the singer is a great way of seeing it. It makes sense, too, if the lowest level signal is not compressed, it retains its transient information, which is especially effective in creating that close-up effect.

    Dude, you did a great job of explaining some good old head techniques in a short UA-cam video. Learning this craft in the pre-internet days was a whole lot of “what happens if I do this?” And man let me say that compression was the hardest thing for me to understand entirely. You gave 30 years of trial and error and consulting by phone with friends to a lot of people here, for free, in a concise and well instructed video. Also, that chorus is an ear worm, and pop country is not something I enjoy listening to. Good job to you and the artist

    It's extraordinary how much sheer value you offer here. Really puts to rest the argument of those who try to mix with their eyes..."He's burrying the needle, can't be right". haha. But the results you demonstrate in this video are spot on imho. Dude's vocal ended up near perfect in the song! Thanks, for sharing!

    You've succesfully gotten me back into using my 1176;s for vocals, had taken a little break there for a minute, thanks!

    Made it to the end. I've been watching videos along this line for 2 days. This was the best and easiest to understand.
