This guys got parallel distortion on his damn voice
by the sound of its not parallel its on his whole mix
HAHAHA!!!
SHIT LOL, i was gonna post the same haahahahahahh
i thought of it too
He did have throat cancer...
Brilliant - absolutely brilliant.
Not coz he's using parallel distortion (which is great) - but coz of the intense depth of his creativity and his willingness and desire to explore - to live outside the box.
I love him! Thanks so much for introducing me to this wonderful genius.
Brilliant... a true master at work!!! Love to hear him destroy a sound and drag it through the mud. Not afraid to get dirty!
The people on here saying the kick drum sounds awful, really? He knows what he's doing and he thinking on terms of how it sits in the mx not how it sounds in isolation. It's Tchad Blake fs if there has been a more adventurous and influential mixer/engineer in the last 30 years I've yet to see it. He mixed Tom Waits Mule Variations! So wise up and listen and learn.
word. dude probably worked on more music in 2 months during the 90's than the haters have their entire lives.
Some people might hate that tone "oh too dirty, oh awful, doesn't sounds like a kick"
Buuut man, i just love when he goes nuts and destroys the drumkit that is what makes Tchad such a badass producer
right. he puts into his kicks what every other yt video tells people to take out. ppl should start using their ears again.
i didn't like it in the mix
but he might not either tomorrow
Maybe they just dont like the sound of the kick, Jesus Christ man lol
Mixing is drawing. Back and forth, experimenting. Such a fun to do. Drawing with sonic textures. Peace
tchad's voice is gravely because he's been very sick. he had cancer. besides being an incredible engineer, he's a helluva nice guy. always funny to see internet haters ripping on someone with no idea what their story is.
How else are you supposed to feel good?
Actually being a decent person? pfft.
That’s really sad, is he okay now?
It was a joke....even Tschad might appreciate that joke. Like you say, there is something funny about haters ripping on someone with no idea what their story is.
LOL No one is ripping on him 😂
@@elgamerico how the fuck do you sound so sure when this comment section is full of insults about his voice ?
You must be thick as shit
This guy is in a whole other league in experimentation and originality... Totally blown away
This guy is responsible for one of the best Pearl Jam albums
I love the way Tshad thinks. He sounds like a part of me at the desk. And I love his voice. He's got a complex Texas voice with the same attitude that makes you love Christian Slater and Billy Bob Thornton. And he looks like my Dad.
I love this approach. Anything goes, whatever works.
what a voice!!! he reminds me of Rorschach from watchmen with that look and voice....
I think what a lot of people miss when watching this video is the intention behind Tchad's parallel distortion. Tchad is known for not using reverb or TBEs to build a space or ambience in the mix, and instead uses this method of distortion to give him a similar effect, albeit with vastly different results.
Tchad is The Man!
The guy speaks like he's doing some sort of a trailer for a movie. It's great! :D
I love this beautiful man and his awesome work!
Anything goes! Thank you for sharing the knowledge Tchad 'SansAmp' Blake =)
The beauty of mixing is how individual of an art form it is with endless possibilities. I really enjoyed how much he enjoyed the sound, even though to be honest the processing on this kick drum sounded awful to my ears haha. I have my own quirky taste though. I'm a big fan of slight digital clipping and a bit of distortion but in the higher frequencies only, preserving the thud of the kick but giving the top end this unique "smack". I also like them quite loud in the mix. I have a lot of respect for engineers that take risks and have their own vision

Dane John Hawkins 🤠😂😂

well you know thats why they are professional mixing engineers because the go out of the box . because thay are not afraid to do new things. and they do art we are to technical when mixing. but this guys play around with sounds at the end the results are grammys.
Julio Franco Totally. If you got the skill you don't get dependant on anything
A year worth of information in six minutes. I'm thankful for whoever put the bat signal in the sky.
I love the sans amp for fxs. I use to add color to my delays. Nice video.
Man, I love the album Kiko. Just listened to it the other day! Still sounds amazing. (Is that why this video popped up? Dang algorithm!)
GOTTA LIGHT?
This is the water. And this is the well.
BEST COMMENT ahaha. I miss Twin Peaks..
A person of culture
Thought the same shit lol
what a decent person
how the fuck did he come up with this filtering + phase flip on the parallel shit? it can be psychoacoustic black magic, creating a phantom sub octave or just give this low mid presence in the mix that nothing else achieves. dude is just a mad genius.
Tchad is a fucking LEGEND!!! I hope this puts to rest the BS "rule" about not working a sound in isolation. Of course at some point you need to make sure that it's sitting in the mix properly. Only an idiot would not do that.
a genius
Is this what Maxxbass and Renaissance Bass do? add and compress harmonics, high pass and deal with phase to have more presence in the mid low frequencies and make the sound bigger?
song is crazy
for one second i thought i saw T-Bag from Prison Break
master!
any link for the final finished product?
Hello Marcus, you can listen to the final mix here: bit.ly/2fDpfqJ
Mix With The Masters thank you
Master !!!
I knew I stole this trick from someone. Latin Playboys first record. I think that's where I directly lifted the idea from.
what song was that if i may ask? i would love to check it out! thanks :)
Wondering if the phase issue he mentions at 2:15 is because of the 18db octave slope he applied at 2:00 ?? Anyone care to chime in? I'm starting to avoid high-passing completely in favor of low shelves... Just because someone is a renown total pro doesn't mean that they're not missing certain things...
Are we hearing the distortion on a send or on the actual track?
much much gratitude for this one! cool shit.
playing with polarity button? is this because the parallel track is out of phase potentially?
anyone know?
its fun to watch these and pretend i know what they're doing.
Tchad, Brauer, Massey and Swedien
Can we just have a Tchab Blake biopic starring Billy Bob Thornton please?
❤❤❤
So he’s coming out of interface at line level and going into a guitar pedal? Impedance would be an issue yeah?
He probably has a reamp box setup somewhere off camera to adjust the level. Depends on the pedal though. Certain ones are designed w/ more headroom to accept line levels. You can also just adjust the level of the send in your daw to -6db or so. Same diff.
Cheers.
@@AmiliaCaraMia interesting. I see a lot of people running keyboards through guitar pedals, so they are likely running into the pedals with the keyboards output set at a lower volume to compensate for the mismatch impedance?
He‘s using the Bomb Factory plug-in in this clip that is part of the Pro Tools stock plug-ins. Also the Nembrini Sans-Amp plug-in that also has a ‚Mix‘ function for parallel use. If you use the hardware pedal or rackmount PSA-1 you need a reamp box. Radial has several models - all great.
Personally I use two hardware PSA-1s but also the plug-ins. And of course it was all inspired by Tchad Blake. 😊
dope
Where do you get the sansamp plugin?
It's a Pro Tools stock pluggin
There's also a VST emulation of the protools version called "softamp PSA-1"
@@NormSpupsEntertainmentis there a Mac version?
Para bailar la bambaaa duum duum...
This kick is sounding like a fucking 909 lol
whos that song? whats the songs name? Apologies for my ignorance :D

I fuckkng luv fvckd up drums! 😂
is he going to get his original voice back or?
What's the name of the band he mentions @ 00:43? I heard Lost Vobo's...with a record called Keego. But that's clearly not it :)
Los Lobos, Kiko
@@jessepeterson9277 ah thanks
Damn what song is that ????
Hasil Kureshi Exactly my first thought! Thanks to another comment: ua-cam.com/video/ZObt5yP_QZI/v-deo.html
so this is how rohrschach look without his mask...
people commenting on this have mic'd up a drum kit three times in their life then suddenly become an expert on 'kick drum tone'
"Anything goes"
Rick Sanchez producer version
Batman's mixes sound pretty lit.
That kick sounds fucking horrible, but in the mix, god damn!
That's why excessive solo'ing is a fool's errand.
Hella good advice!!! Ain't it tho!!!
That's what generally separates great mixers from everyone else.
I just clicked because I wanted to know how to pronounce Tchad.
I AM THE BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!
It sounded worst the more he tweaked it 😂
MAKE MY DAY, JEW!
whatcha lookin at, smoothskin
HAHAHHAHA
Rick Sanchez
Immature babies always picking on TChad's voice
IMO he should be voicing characters in animated movies
B-but I thought you weren't suppose to solo things?!

This plugin 'll blow ya head clean off.....
damn didnt know Batman would ever show me how to mix
Fallout Ghoul
Rick Sanchez. Where's Morty at?
Sounds like a crappy kick
2:16 messing with the phase and he didn't realize the "Dly" in *red* below the counters.
This was a comedy.
The albums he mixes have a superb HUGEE sounding. I just refuse to believe that he does this kind of sh...

I'm Batman
K-Kick = F-Fart
Doesn't like the tikky sound in his kick drums... or his voice
is it me or did his ears get bigger from mixing and listening? :))
I bought a rack mounted sans amp when they came out too. God we’re old.
