I couldn't make myself watch it for a month (had the tab open the entire time) cuz I knew that feeding my brain so much gold and wisdom would be overwhelming and send me into sensory overload. I am done watching it now. It did exactly as I expected it would. Gold, pure gold. These guys are all legends and these analogies, these ways of perceiving the world around them is astonishing. Thank you for posting this conversation.

[@type997]

To Alex: Hows your dog? To Finneas: whats it like to have so many Grammy noms? To Louis: Whats it like to be so amazing? *Alex's Face*

[@danielrobertmusic]

thank you Finneas. That no drum GEM is one of most important things a producer can hear.

[@dylantruenow9104]

I can’t believe this doesn’t have more views

[@Guccipoet23]

Louis Bell is my idol. 15 minutes with that dude could change anyones life.

[@noahwise9716]

Louis is incredible. I learned so much from this video

[@zachscohan]

Thank you for doing and posting this! Amazing. Inspiring! Gems on gems. Grateful

[@MikeHeebz]

Thanks for the talk. Interesting to hear everyone's unique approach to creating! Peace, Love + Positive Vibes to ALL! =)

[@MATALOMUSIC]

Line was way too crazy to get in so thanks so much for posting!

[@thehitter2708]

Hey Louis, what do you do to find balance in your life? Louis: Well if you play footage of a helicopter in slow motion, the propellars are still a blur.

[@agoldencoast5804]

The king of analogies himself lol

[@briandavidofficial]

Dang. Gold mine! Highlight for me was Louis Bell's feedback on decisiveness at 24:03. I feeeeel this.

[@Astronomater]

excellent Q and A section on this episode. very insightful!

[@gavmurray7398]

that bit about not adding strings if you already imagine them there is a great little bit

[@arsenbibi6771]

Thanks you for getting them in one room

[@bradynovak1434]

This deserves 18 million views and I haven’t even watched it yet.

[@FutureMemorys]

Louis has great analogies he would be an ideal teacher.

[@ValleyBeats-yy4xd]

Yall gotta do more!

[@twikhozay]

Hey, here's a pizza you didn't order 😂🔥

[@zazimusic]

16 minutes in and loving it! Thank you, guys!

[@lewchootrain]

36:54 It’s sad that people would approach Phinneas and be like “he can make me into Billie” when an artist should just want to be their unique self

[@lewchootrain]

root I just feel like their intentions aren’t great then. Instead, you know that Phinneas is a great producer and an artist could just be happy and live in the moment and be with him and make great music

[@lewchootrain]

root I’m not surprised. You’re right it’s the world we live in.

[@rahmeenayoubi106]

It's hot as hell in there and everyone is waiting for it to be over

[@leearmstrong9633]

Alex at 31:00 great mixing explanations

[@GravyMIxes]

oh hey bro! lol

[@tylerjustice5560]

“Just say Mike Dean” 😂😂😂

[@skinnyminnieog]

Exactly 💯. Never force a meeting 👍🏾

[@PineappleJaggy]

Super fucking cool panel. Thank you guys!!

[@Guccipoet23]

Don't serve the yeast before the bread! I'm crying. so many gems.

[@dafingaz]

This is awesome!

[@domenicopolo]

25:29 Lmao! These guys are legends!!

[@lewchootrain]

Yeah Rockstar should have won something it’s a shame. Keep on doing your thing though Louis 🙏

[@camjo6397]

For the record, H1O (or OH-) is alcohol. It goes great with a meal.

[@zionherbert]

Great time

[@be3342]

soooooo good

[@nobosnobo]

buncha legends

[@ticroymusic]

YES

[@Nosalez]

Insane lineup jeeez

[@mrfleamino9350]

cool one thank you

[@hakny]

Bless! Legends

[@dariofromthefuture3075]

This was an epic fucking convo

[@Blackdogmountain]

If I could EQ Herb out of this mix, it would be perfect

[@austinegy]

Louis has so many analogies lol

[@andycarrillo48]

anyone got timestamps on vsts they use or anyone got a good template with some sweet vsts in em for vocal production. i use fl 20

[@Yannickmyk]

Yes. Put SOUNDGOODIZER on all channels.

[@andycarrillo48]

Yannickmyk I’m serious I want a template from someone who is kind enough to share a very good template for recording vocals. Honestly though a soundgoodizer on all channels probably won’t even hurt at all lmaoooo

[@benjambenjambenjam]

@@andycarrillo48 there you go bro : kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpDMdXiEdqd_o80 - Kenny Beats showing everything he uses in order to record vocals, and if my memory's good he was advice by Alex Tumay among others

[@dan_bw3683]

Double track, harmonies stacked for recording. High quality condenser mic in a treated room or vocal booth (Neumann U87/U47, Manley Reference C, Sony C800) into a decent preamp into an LA2A/CL1B compressor, 1176 compressor if you want a more aggressive vocal sound. Very carefully tune vocals in Melodyne for polished/pop stuff (or Autotune if you want the effect as a stylistic thing). When mixing, high pass the low end under 100-150Hz in a good EQ like Fabfilter Pro Q. Use a plate reverb and hall reverb on two separate sends, then maybe a delay send at 1/8 or 1/4, send the vocal to those and mix to taste. That's a tried and tested workflow and effect chain for vocals that many producers and engineers use but you can experiment and deviate from it a bit and add a bit more personal flavour.

[@chychywoohoo]

7:36

[@lovemaakhe]

18:48 yes hydrogen peroxide, refreshing

[@dompoppadom9242]

'we call him the Joe Biden of audio' OMG

[@sonovsamson5510]

I honestly enjoyed this but Finneas's energy towards Alex is clearly visible and its weird..everyone else was awesome!!

[@cackjorbett4420]

Wym?

[@CarlyonProduction]

Don’t understand what you are talking about?

[@Alexia-cm6pb]

What are you talking about??

[@jasonjasonjasonjasonjason]

herb cant help himself

[@darioflaviobatistaguidione3287]

Lmao what da F was going on with fineas lol shame he looked uncomfortable. The last time he was chilled this time...

[@Kevinschart]

seems to me he's trying to hard to appear humble...he's the baddest dude on the planet right now. he should enjoy it.

[@snapascrew]

Jesus Christ... asking for a shit load of changes for an album that’s supposed to come out in a few hours. And since he did it they will expect it again in the future!!

[@heyy8969]

Yeah not fair from them, but it showcased his strength, his adaptibility.

[@br3ntst3wart]

Like

[@be3342]

BTW I would love to receive a pizza that I didn't order..

[@pat4340]

Finneas: “I love the sound of something when it’s not competing with something else” in an interview where he constantly cuts off and interrupts his peers 😂

[@FRANCO-cm7ol]

Hahaha he does that alot, he gets lost to what he's talking about

[@branscombeR]

No women engineers?

[@MrMaxSkorpion]

Are you kidding? These are three of the absolute best producers/mixers around right now.

[@Alexia-cm6pb]

@@MrMaxSkorpion yeah, im sure there's at least a female engineer that is as good as them and she's not here, women are usually not talked about and not having any is sus

[@1950flandert]

corona...stay home
