The best explanation I've seen so far, thanks 🤟🤘

[@exastropos]

I like the side chaining the bass to kick comp. Brilliant

[@magicruss1]

Brilliant instruction

[@RudalPL]

Very nice video. There is plenty of pop or Rock tutorials but not many comprehensive tutorials with really extreme music. Thanks for your lessons.

[@bobwalters9151]

Killer mix...just what I was looking for. thank you!!

[@cali3168]

Love your videos - many thanks! Pls keep 'em coming.

[@joanesinu]

The multi-band compressor with side chained kick was a superb tip. Awesome videos!!! Edit: Tried the multiband compresor, just inserted on a track and it adds 110ms of latency... And I'm running last gen PC with Focusrite clarett interface...

[@johnmurphy5739]

Great as always! Thanks!

[@metalgod5300]

Awesome! Keep it coming.

[@gerhardbinkele3753]

[@project1265ffo]

Fantastic 🎸

[@LeeJoRo]

That's a really nice mix. My laptop packed up so I'm waiting for my new MacBook Pro to arrive to get back into it (cubase 12). I'll give this a go

[@mixedbydense]

Great Video , Can you please Share Your Cubase Preferences !! I love that Color and Other UI settings !

[@kerninger]

Hi Mendel, your videos are just great. It is very interesting to learn about your workflow with all the useful tipps & tricks. And your playing ist just awesome. Thank you for sharing! One question: Which audio align plugin do you use on the inserts?

[@Mendelian]

There are different tools, like Cubase’s own ms adjustments (to save money). On this i used Auto Align from Audio Radix.

[@astrogippi2749]

Second part riff is super 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@nasdaq1966]

Great video, how did you create this awesome snare sound?

[@Death66658]

Can someone tell me why he is using Auto Align before the Brickwall Limiter? Thanks in advance

[@MaximShelkov]

Amazing videos it’s so nice to watch a pro do his thing!

[@michaeldouglas2634]

When ever I do what you do with the low end, mine always sounds distorted when I engage the limiter. Am I missing something in the process? I do the low and high pass filters like you do.

[@KleeMusicAZ]

You may have to evaluate your gain staging.

[@robertopalmese]

bro are the guitars in phase? or maybe it's too stereo, in mono guitars dies

[@RemnentPlays]

I was considering getting it until I saw the 700 dollar price tag. yeeeahh I'll pass.
