I love you, bro. Very long time watcher/subscriber...but first time commenter. I've been watching since you did the interview on Frightbox with Bobby. That's when I first saw you. Since then, I try to NEVER miss one of your vids, and I soak up every bit of knowledge you have to offer, and if I don't fully understand something, I watch it until I do. I truly believe in you. That you're genuine, honest, and have a very real desire to make every song the best it can be in the eyes and to the ears of the people who created each one....to make sure the message is conveyed in THEIR vision....and to share the knowledge of the process you have acquired along the way. My mixes suck..lol..but are light years ahead of where they were before I discovered you...I can't say enough, bro. Much peace, love, and appreciation in your direction... It's free, but priceless knowledge to those of us who have the same desire. KZbin-land can be brim-full of bullshit a lot of the time. I've never felt that way for one second watching your channel.. I'm not a huge Jason Mraz fan, I am a metalhead at heart, but I will leave u with one of my favorite lines of his... "I feel like you’re an island of reality in an ocean of diarrhea.". ✌️

From someone who got accepted into your mixing program, but truly can not afford it, I'm so thankful for the free content you have here. The videos that helped me most were probably the least popular ones. The magic frequency/ eq videos and the newer deep dive compression videos have changed and improved the way I look at mixing in such a short amount of time. I can't wait to hear from the other engineers you've trained and trust. That's one thing I love about URM, it's nice to see how different guys have their own approach to pro results. I think that's a brilliant move for your channel. Thanks for doing what you do and always evolving as a teacher!

Love this channel. please don't stop .....Going forward create a short out of every video you do. It doesn't have to be anything fancy our mind blowing. Just cut it from the main video no extra editing, title it different, and include the main video point "automation" for example. IMPORTANT - include the link to the main video. This alerts the instant notification system on mobile devices for your subscribers more than posting any video. It's the easiest way I've found and this is over a lot of youtube channels I've created personally and businesses I work with. It doesn't require any research or much of effort. YT really pushes those notifications when the subs are new. Really helps with building that loyalty to new subs without chasing algorithm.

You're so spot on about the burnout of playing the game. I remember, maybe in blissful ignorance, a time on youtube where people just put out content they they were excited about and just wanted to share what they thought was cool and what they were prideful of with people. And now it seems like everyone is just going at it for views and clout. I, too, often get bummed where I put hours and days into videos and am so stoked about a song for it to just get shut down by KZbin. But you know what, at the end of the day, for me at least, I'm just sticking to doing what I enjoy and hoping that people vibe with it at some point. However big or small the channel gets.

As time has gone on, and totally organically, I’ve found myself dialling out other ‘how to mix’ content and just running with yours. Your philosophy (which I summarise essentially as ‘keep it simple, stick with the same approach, and most importantly understand why) is just 100% how my brain works. Put out a new video and I’ll find it, and learn from it.

I really enjoyed what I have watched from your live automation video. I haven’t quite finished watching it yet, but I think I have got more out of that, regarding automation than anything else.

Thank you SO much Jordan for being true to what “drives you” - I’m sure we all benefit more from the content, when it comes from the heart. I’ve allready subscribed to your channel, joined your mailing list etc… A quick little story: Back in 2014 I had BIG hopes for a future in mixing. Back then I watched a lot of your content. But it all crashed because my ambitions were quite frankly “deluted” - I thought I wanted to do this for a living but my ambitions were not matched with equal devotion etc… It made me sad, but eventually I stopped recording, writing and playing. I now have another job as a teacher - I love it, and I’m good at it. But the music was switched off for almost 8 years. But recently my spark for just creating music for myself was reignited. I remembered your channel, watched a lot of your free content, downloaded your free mixsheet, bought your book, bought two workshops and invested in all the plugins from BSA. My mix litterally sounds twice as good as the things I made earlier - even with a 8 year break, rusty skills etc… I now have a job I like which is not related to music AND I have reignited a great hobby - partly because of your channel. THANK YOU 🤗

I think it holds to the same standard as music itself. I make a niche genre of music that I know isn't in the mainstream but still holds it's own audience of people that find value in what I do. Same applies for a channel like this, every video has been very concise and incredibly valuable in what you offer. While there is nothing wrong with wanting to grow a larger audience, sometimes that comes with a cost of shaking away some atttributes or style that made this channel unique and wonderful in the first place. Like @emberwhite said, the people that are here for you always will be. You are the man \m/
