Interesting the 2.5k boost on vocals started to sound similar to the original vox. Sounds great and love the new studio!
Every time I hear the beginning of this song it reminds me of STP.
Obviously the review and usage is splendid. But how about that video cut at 0:46…it looks like your background is a green screen!
Why was the guy naked all of a sudden? Why does your unit already have rack bite?
I record naked, and I’ve used it for over 7 months and moved 3 times.
Why was he shirtless?
He's always shirtless during vocals. something about being hot? Certainly not the first.
Maybe you should be shirtless too. It’ll make him more comfortable

Amazing! Great video as always. What a great overview of the #MaagPreQ2 💙
Glad you liked it!
The best thing I like about your channel is that you try to look forward into new interesting gears as always. There are many UA-camrs who focus mainly on the classics or clones of classics, which we all know but your channel is always new food on my table. Thank you Andrew for that !!
Eh I’m guilty of loving copies of old stuff too, but I appreciate it!
DI tip: max out the gain for an incredible DI rock tone (you'll need a compressor or something to trim the output before hitting the convertors). As someone who almost purchased the EQ4M, I'm so glad that I ended up with the PREQ2 for its versatility as a clean mic pre, modern DI, and musical EQ!
Really fun to watch the process. Love seeing the #MicroMain27 studio monitors in action!
Loved the video and the singer did a great cover. The Maag might be my first piece of hardware after hearing it being used this way!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your boy sounds like Gavin De Graw smiling
First comment 😅 love what you do man 😂👍
Noice
I want one of these so bad. I was looking at the SSL fusion and then heard Maag
Sounds good!
Amazing job bro!
Appreciate it!
Great EQ Andrew sounds great
Great video love it man😂👍
Appreciate it
Seems like your low end is shy according to my monitors
Yip, I hear it a bit that way too. But I think it's the bass part, rather than anything else. The drums sound good, low tom has plenty of bass. The guitar parts don't go that low, so that bass part could be fuller, richer to fill in more of the bass and lower mids. Maybe more fundamental in the bass (a Mustang with flatwounds would be a good choice), or a bit of drive pedal, and maybe a bit of Ampeg B-15 / V-4b / SVT type tubey growl. I'm not a huge fan of DI'd only bass in rock music. A mix of DI, with some recorded amp/cab sounds better, even if there's more DI signal. But usually, the DI signal it gives you a good strong foundation around the fundamental, but not so much here; then it's missing some saturated mids too and instead there's a lot of attack frorm the pick and string noise.
@@compucorder64 I'm thinking your headphones may be enhancing the low end and throwing your ears off. Your tracks sound great! I know you have worked both pure analog and digital. It is amazing to me the sound you get out of the box. I worked in LA mostly in CCM music, feature film and some work with the Elton John Band. I studied under Humberto Gartica (Chicago)
@@gordondriver2561 It's true that I was listening on headphones, with Sonarworks Sound ID on. It's late night here in Europe. And so that could have been helping the overall mix / kick sound not so bass shy. Though I suppose what that means is that little tweaking at mastering could probably fix that easily enough. But, then give that, what I can definitely hear is the bass guitar is fairly buried there, which is more of a mix problem. And I don't think it's just the volume of the bass track, when you hear the DI'd bass solo'd, that's not what I would want a solo'd bass track to sound like. Especially a P-Bass should be meatier, in the fundamental, and lower mids than that. I'd consider that a relatively thin bass sound, even for a Jazz Bass.
@@compucorder64 I think I'm missing a very low end foundation to the mix from the kick, toms and the bass. Please correct me if you think I'm wrong and too subjective. I was brought up on Neves and Studers were the analog punch comes through naturally. I used to eq out the low end so the needle didn't jump out of the vinyl! :) Today you can keep the low end and bring back the punch. The high end of the channel strip sounds smooth. how does it handle drum transients?
@@gordondriver2561 I think your last questions are for Andrew Masters, not me. But, I do hear that missing low end kick, and bass is definitely buried. The toms, I did feel hit through, at least the floor tom on my headphones. He's could well be tracking the kick through Neve-style pres, I know he uses those as the basis of his drum-tracking frontend, with some CAPIs and others. Many of us will use 1073s for kick/snare and EQ it on the Neve EQ for more definition, maybe tuning out some unwanted resonance.
Why would you care about setting a high shelf literally 20,000hz higher than the upper limit of the human ears frequency response?
the curve is very wide, so it starts lower in the freq spectrum
Harmonics, there will be bumps every octave of the targeted frequency.
….Why not?
It affects much lower frequencies but in a very gradual and subtle way that sounds very natural and not peaky in any way
@rocketsauce5067 wait, does this also happen when you change EQ on lower frequencies?
