Dave Pensado Exclusive Interview - TheRecordingRevolution.com

[@rickyred001]

I'm so grateful to Graham and Dave for the huge amount of free mixing tutorials on youtube, been a huge help to me

[@SolarHeavy]

I'm nearing 4 years into my passion for music, and this has been so insightful, specially the ending half

[@tonyharp2009]

Great Video!! I love how Dave turned it back around to as his own questions of you!! Time to set up that Chris Lord Alge interview ;-)

[@mrhodes100]

Graham, congrats on the great interview with Dave. I watch his show every week.

[@fernandoblanc]

my two favorites web shows in terms of mixing in one video, just legendary ! many many thanks !

[@101AOK]

Dave is a VERY kind man. His comments were well thought out and KIND. I hope everyone realizes how graceful and professional; he is being with his remarks. I complement him on his mature demeanor.

[@utubehound69]

Two of the nicest people on the planet, back in the day mixing & mastering was done in the dark & it was really rare that someone showed you ANYTHING. You younger guys have it made today as far as knowledge being freely offered to you don't take it for granted ever.

[@earldrum]

You guys, are both, the only guys I faithfully watch to get tips on how to be a better mix engineer. Congratulations on making this great contact. Dave Pensado continues to amaze me at his willingness to share and encourage those that are in the game and just getting started in the business. Awesome interview!

[@the16thLeVel]

Thanks for the great interview!

[@flockoglock]

This is one of the best videos I've seen about the inside of mixing. It also reinforces a number of things I've been facing lately, especially multi and compression and working on my own compositions vs. someone else's. Great video as usual, many thanks to both of these guys for taking the time to help others.

[@briancoberly8515]

Dave Pensado have to be one of the nicest and most humble mixing artist in the world!

[@daveplantz]

I've been waiting for this Pensado meets Graham moment for a couple years! Too awesome!

[@TreevD]

Two of my favorite resources for learning mixing .... fantastic episode .... thanks!

[@JunkSoap]

Dave Pensado ! I can't believe such a legend is so friendly and funny, and takes so much time to speak with "the common people" !!!! WTF !!!! Thank you Dave for these encouraging tips and thank you Graham for your work, all the videos..

[@Alionmon]

@29:35 DING DING DING!!!! I am one of those guys Dave is referring to. I REALLY get the urge to just hand my stuff off to someone more experienced with mixing/mastering etc... Some days I am foolishly thinking I can just find a few techniques or plugins that will turn my sh*t to gold... and some days I just want to give up; write it, record it, HAND IT OFF BABY! :-p Great stuff Graham, thanks guys!

[@logischdenker]

Well this is an awesome interview, or should I say a chat of two people I admire for their skills and the way they share their knowledge with the world. Thank you guys for everything!

[@klandestino22]

One of the best part of this interview was when you guys were talking about the multi-band compressor. I also think of it as an EQ. I use it on the master. Thanks for sharing'!

[@ArcticBulletNation]

"A kick drum record" hahaha! Cracked me up so hard!

[@manifestgtr]

no ones ever bought a kick drum record...hmmm...I guess my folders upon folders of toontrack samples don't count

[@mmmusicc777]

I've learned so much from this guys they are like a father mixing wise they have showing me so much

[@Artistnest2012]

Dave is one of those guys you want to have a beer with! Great interview! Thanks to both of you for sharing your vast knowledge!

[@HipHopAn0n]

Yeah the guy is ridiculously humble - watching Pensado's Place along with RecordingRevolution has improved my production skills leaps and bounds.

[@fiddlefolk]

How great is it to get free advice from very talented people! Dave and Graham have been very influential for me just to get my songs sounding good and i have no aspirations to be a mixer! I have learned a lot from Herb also as to how the business works! Pensado's place and recording revolution are my two favorite sites! I appreciate it greatly!

[@theturtleproject]

you both are helping me out big time right now thanks a lot

[@SantiagoVizan]

I just watched Pensados place #120 and said I'll check out The recording revolution to see what's new and I find this epic crossover of the best shows on the audio world! Graham and Dave you are great guys and what you do is really awesome. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it's always really helpful.

[@mxrider139]

Absolutely love both these guys!!

[@hamgordon7087]

Graham, you handled that interview with such class, and steered Dave all the right directions towards what we wanted to hear. I just wanted to commend you and your channel, I think you are a legend in the making yourself. Thank you for everything you have been doing, every time I watch your channel I gain respect for you based on your boundless humility, clarity as a teacher and sheer work ethic to keep the shows rolling and improving. Thank you sir!

[@jonboy5yo]

Caught a little of this interview early morning while camping. Looking fwd to the rest when I get home.

[@franciscomoralesmusic]

Man....! I think after Graham's presentation Dave dried his tears... that made me get tears too...!!! ;.-)

[@owenkilleen]

The two guys i've watched and learned from for the last two years, together, thank you both for your time and sharing your knowledge. Owen.

[@gregserenade6653]

Dave Pensado is a living legend. any time I feel stuck somewhere in a mix I look for anything he has to say about it, and then like he usually suggests go back to the lab and do it my way. I think what I like most about him is he doesn't impose rules on you he shares principles leaving you wiser than when you came. Dave is another one cut from the same cloth. I built my home studio with his advice.

[@101AOK]

Yes this is nice to see. Dave has a grasp on NOT just the profession itself, but as important, a grasp on treating others who try and instruct, a feeling of worth and respect many at HIS level tend to start BLOWING OFF the younger instructor/host. This is very important. Dave, we DO see this and appreciate your brotherhood.

[@NoelGonzalezReasonistas]

You guys are awesome. I'm inspired! Thank you Graham and Dave.

[@LawrenceRinconLoRinKo]

Wow this was awesome. The picture analogy was incredible and helped ease the mind!

[@darthregor]

What a pair of great guys!

[@johnnyjclark]

Very cool of Dave to stop by!

[@LaGoofProductions]

Great video! About the multiband compressor, I like to think of it as a dynamic EQ, autonomously adjusting the presence of the bands depending on the input (and your settings of course).

[@cristiancorrea7289]

You guys should do more of these.

[@EsencyMusic]

My two favorite Mixing Engineers straight up !

[@andrewfrancois602]

Wow don't know how my two favorite mixers ended up in the same video...

[@billyhard100]

Great work guys! KEEP IT COMING! I've learned so much from Pensado's Place and The Recording Revolution.

[@Mrjmccormick00]

At 21:03, I'm SO glad he interrupted. Not that Graham isn't great to listen to :), but the analogy between music & photography ... "just take the picture." 'just trying to take better and better pictures." Learning more and more as you progress. This is incredibly inspiring! Just make the music we love to make, and keep "trying" to get better, and we will. "Just take the picture." That's going on the wall in my studio.

[@drunkleskunkle452]

two of my favorite mixers.. so much good info!

[@BOTPlayingBlackOPS6]

wow this video made me so happy and now i have two new heroes! they have inspired me to work harder! :) the part where was about the multiband compressor. i had the same ideas on both guys! lol so humble guys!

[@bdawson8338]

This is awesome! Lots of great advice and helpful perspective. Thank you both, for this and everything else you guys do! Side note- Graham, you might not know who I'm talking about, but you look a lot like Tony Reali to me. He's the host of the ESPN show, Around The Horn.

[@EjRiosMusic]

This helped me so much more spiritually then technically. Thank you for posting this

[@ibon473]

Thanks Graham for this inspiring interview!

[@bastkin1]

That was fricken sweet. I started with RR and then jumped over to PP recently. What a treat.

[@higgnbe]

I want to thank both of you guys I have learned so much from you both

[@ieagertosuccess]

You guys rock. I have applied everything i;ve learn from you guys , My mix's leap from nite to day. thank you so much god bless

[@MadCrokodile1]

great job for both of you! thank you!

[@alvarezgamers]

No wayyyyy man! You got Dave the legend on!!! You rock dude!

[@Evideos717]

"If you don't know what you're doing just send it to me" 😂 Creased up

[@StopwatchRobert]

This was absolutely fascinating. I love that you have one of the greatest technical engineers on the planet here, and he's flat-out saying "all that matters is creating a good song, forget everything else." Both these people have done so much good for the music community, and it's great to be able to listen in on this conversation.

[@TeramadhiKirlianaPutra]

Dave is such funny guy with some of his nice joke but in the way Old Guy talking and i love it when he chilling out. so i think dave are awesome in interview section it's like a talk show on Pro TV Program instead it's on youtube. i love this discussion on the last minute on the interview, it gave me another perspective on how people think about the tools and treats it as his own needs on getting things done, and that's why i like your channel. btw graham, you rule!

[@pinkhammer]

Fantastic! Love these chats Graham! Thank you :)

[@darkmaer]

Great interview man. You going to do a review on that Universal Audio Apollo I see in the background there?

[@bassgypsy00]

How cool is this! Two of my favorite mixing/engineering teachers in the same video. More please!

[@Philoke13]

Thanks Dave and Graham! You both are a great inspiration.

[@maxvelazquez]

and as far as putting Graham on the spot about multi-band compressors, he wasn't really putting him on the spot but rather asking him about his take on multi-band compressors. Dave blew my mind as well with his thoughts on what a multi-band compressor is. Interesting concept.

[@TheInterconnected]

Awesome . . Kings. Thank you both!!

[@iwillshowyouwater]

This was dope. I watch both of you guys all the time. Loved the nerd debate. I need more friends that can talk like that

[@Ramt33n]

"no one ever bought a kick drum record", this is what I take home with me from this interview. :D

[@MalaVoid]

Thank you guys.

[@CoryFinchProductions]

This was extremely insightful! Thank you Graham and Dave. The part about not getting caught up in how well you're engineering right now, but realizing it's just a never-ending learning process really got to me. It really made me feel a lot better and more confident that my skillset will continue to improve. Thank you!

[@nyjbarnes]

Great interview; watched the whole thing! You guys both inspire me so keep up the work; it really does help.

[@LuvuyolwethuLuNoNoyile]

thank you Graham, you passing some great knowledge to all of us

[@rootberg]

Great stuff, thanks Dave and Graham.

[@waltermatthewsiv6153]

As a producer sending off your mix to someone else isn't a bad idea. It's nice just focusing on composing and arranging. Mixing is really a profession and art by itself that I have so much respect for who does it professionally. I became a better mixer once I realized let a professional mix it. Great interview guys!.

[@Jaimesnoise]

How awesome to have DP say that he has learned from your videos!!!

[@xMasterxRazorx]

I've always thought of a multiband compressor as a parametric EQ that compresses rather than cuts.

[@trashhumper]

Stepping on rats & cats! Haha genius

[@OfficialChito]

This Interview was so genuine and insightful. if you want to learn to mix or get a better mix subscribe to both channels (RecordingRevolution and PensadosPlace) I've learned so much from both! PS Never expected to have David Interview Graham LOL

[@Joeknowsit-ALL]

Dave Pensado is the Einstein of Audio ! He looks like Einstein too :)) thanks Graham for this interview...good stuff always

[@dannyd1224]

Pretty cool he got this interview. Hes really stepping it up.

[@maxvelazquez]

Graham, love the interview. your video quality has greatly improved. Last but not least, I really love your logo so when are you going to offer Recording Revolution T-shirts huh??

[@CyrilViXP]

Speaking about possibilities of sound, could you please make the tutorial about some interesting vocal effects, like you did, when you talk about swarming effect, lo-fi, telephone effect & stereo delay?

[@MrSkylerBergman]

Ahh... Alcohol and interviews? lol. Love you Dave! Graham you're amazing! Thumbs up for both of you!

[@mixey01]

Cytomic Te Glue. Plugin I've heard a lot about lately and I'm kinda digging it now myself Thanks for all the great tips Dave, Graham and others. I'm learning a lot from you guys

[@nutekbeatz6668]

Mutliband is for processing more than one frequency instead of affecting the sound sonically as a whole, i use the crap out of them lol. Love your Channel Gram and Dave is a damn good guy, i have learned a lot from you both! Keep up the good work!

[@thomashirschler8822]

awesome interview

[@brunodosreis]

Haha just love these guys! "Why mix it yourself, just send it to me."

[@drewstapleton231]

Poor Graham, he seems so blocked-up or something hurting him. Thanks for this! Dave Pensado is the man!!!

[@davidepstein06]

First time i've ever commented on a video.. This was great! Thanks :)

[@IanThaTerminator]

hey Graham it would be amazing for u to do a pensado place interview.

[@npinero1]

Both of these guys are doing Gods work, and I am not even religious! But their work is a gift.

[@flyback777]

I see an apollo in the background ... how do you like it? did you buy a lot of uad plugins?

[@paice95]

16:35... hmmmm, I don't know why but Chris Lord-Alge instantly springs to my mind :D

[@NathanJacksonMusic]

Great video man. Thank you for what you do!

[@MrOliverTube]

both are very generous and I say thank you for sharing helpful information...

[@MarcusMusik_]

Man I learned a lot from these to guys awesome video keep up the good work

[@Logikbombmusik]

THANK YOU GRAHAM & DAVE!!!

[@beakf1]

I was on Wiki reading about overtones and how the fundamental can be missing but is still perceived by the Integer relationship of the overtones to the fundamental even when not present.I read further about a patent Max bass system which uses this research to give the illusion that small low powered speakers produce low frequencys that arnt there.Do you have any video,s of how this technique can be achieved and apply to a mix/master,especially as most listen to music on small portable devices

[@JrumBeats]

My 2 favorite teachers!!!

[@TheColonyRed]

12:18 thank you! cause you sometimes forget that and it is so easy to overdo tracks...

[@captainvibe]

That was great thank you guys!

[@seraphimproductions1]
