“Not been amped before”? Many times these instrument level inputs are tracked in parallel with a live amp (so that, at a minimum, the performer gets to hear themselves playing through amp/fx while tracking). The DI is then edited, etc..and RE-amped. Kind of a strange comment to index on. Love ya anyway Fab!

85 albums mixed in a year is fuckin crazy

jte kiffe fabrice meilleur pédagogue de tous les sites qui puissent exister

Loving it ❤

This was a big one. Very deep, very meaningful. I’m very well done.

Where can I get the raw tracks?

I grew up in the 60s and 70s was lucky to see most bands from those years , these lady's have restored my faith in music. Thanks LADIES

Welcome to TWA (The Warning Army) You have been WARNED

Key words: "I'm really used to them."

2012-2014 is when Atmos first materialized. I am not a recording engineer but a consumer. (With REW and a UMIK-1) to calibrate we also use wired headphones, pop them in and out to calibrate phantom imaging. I currently have a 7.1.4. To faithfully recreate what you are doing with speakers 7.1.6(.6) or 9.1.6(6) what is the last six you may ask? As it’s presented as a box, the top corners and top surround and top wides are not represented. let’s talk about it in stereo and forget the center for a moment. the side walls have three to four base level speakers on each side (ear level) 6-8 total. The same for the top speakers, None of the overhead speakers along the edge in the box are represented to close the box. KZbinr, Technodad plays with Atmos and has made a Spatial Audio DVD test disc. When he says top right front speaker in a 7.1.4 setup. It’s not in the corner of the room space, it’s overhead right speaker of Atmos. Trust me there is a fanbase with amazing encoding systems and for what you are doing as engineers. more people are converting garages to $60k+ home theaters. Now, my concern is trying to recreate this faithfully with small room acoustics living room. Imagine your studio, with absorption and diffusion panels in my living room. So, please make the content and we will do our best to recreate it. We will talk about what the best experiences are. Also a recording of the rendering may be something to sell as to see what is happening is cool. We want to faithfully want to recreate your vision.

How loud db wise do mix on headphones.? I find that too long on loud headphones over 80 db gives me ear fatigue for days

I love the sound of verb on a total mix. I personally only paralleled the mixbus to a reverb

👀 The reconstruction of the history of some of the great albums covered in this episode definitely proves out some old sayings, like if 2 heads are better than 1, then 3 heads are better than 2, and 4 heads are better than 3. 🧠🧠🧠🧠

Sooop Serial compression basically?

we all have listened Thom and his band too much 😉Very Cool tune by the way... well done Blake Walt... and of course each time we're lucky to observe Fab Dupont mixing is an outstanding source of inspiration. et voilà !

what an interview. EPIC.

i just love this panel. I actually as a mantra to sleep not with picture, but with just the sound of the iPod face down. Andrew, you have become my new mentor since al died. Looking forward to meeting you in person maybe at AES! My friend, Francois Arbour met you at the last AES in NYC. He as 7.1.4 room with Neumann speakers. I’m actually going to his room today to listen to rocket man and stuff he mixed. Again thank you to all the 5 of you!

Two Legends❤

Great series

Great ❤❤❤

I’m on episode 4 already. It’s so good! Matt is a class act. Great musicians, lots of humor, interesting techniques, and a unique behind the scenes view of how a song is made. More content like this, please! Thank you Fab and Puremix, as well as the artists and everyone else involved in making the content.

This is awesome, thanks mate…

Top most bass player

I've been adding reverb on the mix bus for years and always people were like ''oh this is wrong'' .Now that Andrew suggest it it will become a thing haha

I have a few follow up questions. 1. How important is the listening room/speakers before you start getting paid clients? 2. Do you need to learn a certain level of skill before you start taking clients? 3. How old is too old to start down the path of mastering engineer? Thanks for an amazing video!

I love his approach and as a puremix subscriber, I've seen the whole tutorial several times now. As I get more experienced with mixing and mastering, I'm starting to realize that, in this particular vocal "seasoning", he was using compressors as saturators in a time when digital saturators didn't exist. That was a way of getting saturation out of tubes and transistors. It has way less to do with compression itself. Does anybody feel that way too? Just to be clear, he's amazing, I've learned a lot from him. No criticism here.

Think I’ll stick to presets 🙈

„we had a local company cut this wood, which they would never do again“ 😅

My thing is even with all that compression and the snare slamming you can’t hear the ghost notes on the snare in the mix. It’s crazy how it get buried under guitars.

this is awesome

This studio is like a cool functional museum. Some big name artists like to record to 24 track tape machines - Slash comes to mind. I love the concept of making music in an old school way like we used to do back in the day (though I could only afford 16 track studios back then!) The band has to have their music really together. It'd be a really fun experience with a great band. Amazing collection of cool gear.

Just be talking 😂 also who silent man in back

BTW, do y'all have a video explaining everything I get with your service?

R.I.P. videos section - 7 months since new video. Video, not shorts. I know y'all have shorts up to date.

Mick has so much infectious JOY😉💙

This is the best engineer's chat on the internet

Right on! 👍👍 That shelf with the bump on the kick drum sounded great. Really good little demo. Thanks gents! 😎👍👍

Fab got wonderful hair. Look like he about to sell me a spiritual course which includes a few 1 on 1 meditation sessions.

Congrats to the winners! Can't wait to the next one!

I thought about retiring, I had a difficult year and without knowing what to do, from the heart I feel very grateful and surprised at the same time I have been following Fab for many years and today I was made happy by this award that more than winning shows me the way forward 🫡 from Colombia MUCHAS GRACIAS PARCEROS!

Thank you Guys was a great journey!!!

Only the real pro’s can do that 😜 i am having a hard time mixing in a really good and treated room already. So lets move on and acknowledge the difference between Pro’s and bedroom producers like myself…… they know what to do. I don’t yet! But will one day……… Cheers 😊

Pro tools is software. You're plugging the cabling into the interface not pro tools

okay but how do i set it up!😊

I bought a used Apollo Twin and was told it had Heritage Edition. I then plugged it in and found out it doesn’t. I’m pissed. So I will just have to make these plugins do I guess. Thank you

Off to the shops I go

Good to know!

Nice ! After 10+ years with the DT770 I tried the 7506 (it took a while to get used to it) but noticed my mixes translated way better, so I switched to it for good. The Beyer is definitely more analytic and just sounds better, but theres is something about the 7506 that gets the job done...

This helped me out a bind; thank you for posting (all those years ago)!

Amazing in the box composition!
