Cheers!

[@crispydingman]

Concise and helpful breakdown, Bradley! I’m going to do my best to keep this front of mind during mixes (and hopefully not front of mix)!

[@RadiumRecordsHollywood]

HAHA! Yea man, keep those harsh frequencies out of it!

[@josealejandroreyesamaya257]

could you pleas share with us a guide or a quick review on how to use the different colors of analog emulations? in which cases should we apply each type of color, for example: when to use a pultec, when to use a manley emulation, where to apply a maag high shelf and stuff like that.

[@3434565634]

100% agree!!!

[@RadiumRecordsHollywood]

It's a tough balance sometimes... But you gotta nurture the record

[@cristianomoro_music]

Great video! Is it possible that my voice produce a really bad resonance at exactly 2800 hz? I tried changing mic, changing booth, mic position etc but it's always there and very hard to control; even worse with high notes.

[@BukanIbuMu]

Try to sing with a low larynx.

[@leondohrman887]

Another super helpful video! Thanks for the knowledge buddy. I really want to get in on the sessions where people share music for y’all to critique, but all my music is rock based. I noticed a lot of your guys shit is geared towards pop and hip hop.

[@RadiumRecordsHollywood]

Get in on it! Are you signed up with our mailing list? We love rock! We love all genres!

[@leondohrman887]

@@RadiumRecordsHollywood yea I’m on the mailing list. I’ll definitely drop a track for the next one. Looking forward to sharing our project. We recorded everything in logic.

@@leondohrman887 dope!!

[@leondohrman887]

@@RadiumRecordsHollywood yo! Just added our song to your Dropbox. Hopefully you guys will get to it. Our band is called The Flood. 🤘

[@RadiumRecordsHollywood]

@@leondohrman887 Loved it man!! You saw the reaction, right?

[@ritchxmusic]

Have you tried mixing to the FM curve at all, is that a good idea?

[@RadiumRecordsHollywood]

It kinda happens naturally... The issue is that "loudness" is in the mid-range and it's what helps your record really compete

[@ritchxmusic]

​@@RadiumRecordsHollywood I think the reason vinyl sounds better is that curve. More roll off of highs back in the day. We’ve got a battle to make everything ear splitting. I’m turning to be a big fan of rolling off highs in my own music now. Across 5-10 tuts on YT its all about 2-4k again and again, the resonance thing. I’m doing some ‘metal-ish’ industrial tech like Ansome = a lot of distortion to be tamed! :-)

[@djleechcraft]

I like your videos

[@RadiumRecordsHollywood]

I appreciate you stopping by and saying something!

[@natural9747]

Thought I was fixing my highs, now they screech a lil like wtf lol

[@RadiumRecordsHollywood]

LMAO!

[@Brutuscomedy]

I fixed a harsh mix by bouncing to a Telefunken M15 tape machine. 😁

[@RadiumRecordsHollywood]

Lucky!

[@Brutuscomedy]

@@RadiumRecordsHollywood by harsh I just might mean the sound of digital itself
