Watched your saturation 101 recently. With headphones....first time I heard sat very clearly so...thanks. Went immediately to my studio to check out some of my various saturation options. I was very impressed with the saturation in the Schepps Omni channel strip
Great tutorial! Lovely vocals to begin with 😍
Thank you SO much. All of your info "speaks" to me. Wishing you all the best. Keep preaching! 🙂
Hi Lorenz, thank you for your kind words! We'll keep preaching for sure! 🙌🏼

Great tips, great video, thanks!
Cool Chris. Thanks a lot for your advices. Very useful and so pro!

Thank you so much Chris for all this presentation its wonderful
Could you please make an episode and explain to us the right and effective way to record rhythm or sound from keyboard like korg pa 4x or whatever you suggest and get the sound as close as Library sound Quality and clarity thank you so much again
Really good tips, thanks!
Dude im sitting here with 12 songs i recorded during the covid19 lockdown. Everytime im about to convice myself im done mixing them i stumbe upon one of your videos...
😂😂 At some point, if your mixes sound good and feel good, it's time to Bounce and Release 😉
@@mixdownonline i know... I know. 😬
😂😂😂😂
It’s on here ages ago that I saw something the quote is “ You never finish a mix …you just stop mixing “ 😀
Hey Chris, Thanks for the Great Video. I Always learn something new !
You're welcome, mon chum!
Awesome video, very useful! but im the only who finds the opening lyric really funny......yea I know very immature 😅
Awsome! Thanks Chris for sharing. Very useful indeed.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Chris for this!
My pleasure!
Great tutorial and Beautiful song also Thanks Chris
Thanks my friend!
Hello Chris, thank you for your new video. Regarding filtering, you put the filter before the saturation and this way the low frequencies are removed from the beginning. I guess it is worth to experiment with the filter after saturation, too. In this case the low frequencies can generate harmonics when the saturation kicks in. After that the lows are filtered and their harmonics are kept. If that is good for vocals I have no idea, though 😺
That's the beaty with mixing, we can experiment as much as we want and learn from it.
Also teach about panning the sounds in the mix please
As you went through the examples they got better and better! 😀
Glad you think so :-)
Love you my teacher
Thanks a lot for the video

Quadrafuzz 2 has been one of my secret weapons for years. I would’ve paid hood money for that plugin. Thanks @steinberg
I agree, such a good plugin!
Great video, thanks! Only question - are you still on Windows ? If so, how are you satisfied ?
Yes I am! And yes, I'm still satisfied. I actually like both, Win and Mac
Hi Chris tnks for Tips, Which Cubase version are you using?
Cubase Pro 12
From Rwanda
"What we have" 5:07 😳
does anyone remember Karlette?
Nop!
@@mixdownonline that was a quad tape delay in cubase vst pretty fantastic an nice saturation as well. Your use of Echoboy reminded me of it
I remember it from the 90's when I was working then with Cubasis VST.
@@sunpointstudio4472 oh, in the nineties Chris was still a little child.
Just get some analog gear
I have some, and Analog gear is not a miracle mixing pill, talent is.
quebec accent spotted lol

Helpful as always ✌️🎵🎼⏯️
Glad you think so!

8/GB ram seems a bit low, I have to say. Still workable, but with limitations
