How to Add Shimmer to Your Mix with Clariphonic Parallel EQ by Kush

[@Seriouspup]

WHY HAS THIS CHANNEL NOT FOUND ME YET THIS IS 9 years old?? Damn love this channel can’t wait to watch more

[@samtheman233]

you've been at this a while.. much respect

[@benjaminmichaelmusic]

Kush give us the song! I can’t find it on KZbin my man

[@fastsavannah7684]

You hit those switches right on the beat!

[@robertcain3426]

I've got say you get the best sounds on all your videos I've heard on KZbin. Even your vocal narration. Some kind of genius.

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Thanks!

[@ShutTheMuckUp]

KZbin makes no sense... I was recommended a video of yours like a week ago. I have been searching recording tips and tricks for as long as youtube has existed, and only recently did the worthless algorithms decide that someone that's been making videos about this very topic for over 10 years is worth promoting...

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Better late than never? Welcome to the Kush fam! 🤜🏽🤛🏼

[@christiannilsen2835]

Looked so much after this! I forget Kush brand name and so happy I found it again. It sound like pure magic!

[@strategicpeoples2973]

Im just floored by the sound quality of these plug ins I'm demoing them but but after I heard the Clariphonic on a mix im sold

[@sankstone]

The fact that you can actually hear a difference is amazing in it's own right. This definitely has a place.

[@AngryOscillator]

This thing blows my mind every time. Currently got the DSP version but man the hardware is just so much smoother and alive. This thing is so good its almost cheating.

[@danielkang7789]

you've got to love this guy and kush sound period

[@DarrenDeGouff]

Brother, you are the coolest personality on KZbin. And a genius with your creations. I've opened a little studio for Christian bands that want to record for their respective churches. As soon as I can make anything from the studio, I'll be getting the claraphinic and some other pieces of yours. Just great stuff

[@cstrongman]

Yeah dude, this thing is insane. Why is it that nothing else sounds like it and yet it sounds like it's on every record? Easily one of the best music production plugins/outboard gear EVER. Never found anything that almost instantly makes any sound jump out of the speakers and simultaneously sound so professional. You're a goddamn genius. My demo ran out but as soon as I buy it I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be using it on every project. To anyone who hasn't tried it, try the demo. You'll see what I'm talking about.

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Without exaggeration, I think it's safe to say that the Clariphonic is on a decent percentage of modern recordings, it's bananas how many units are out there, and if you factor in software it's kinda crazy.

[@chaparganju]

so basically FOCUS handles the mids and the CLARITY handles the highs. Love it!

[@MadeOnTape]

UBK! I finally subscribed to all Kush Plugins, and the Novotron and Clariphonic are going be on my "in the box" mix bus ALL THE TIME. Especially for my imported Portastudio mixes... it makes for a fun hybrid set up. Thank you for everything!

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Thanks for the support!

This video made me buy my Clariphonic MS and I use it daily. Theres nothing quite like it. What it does for drums is amazing. Sure miss this guy. ❤

[@cabuffal0]

Hi, Greg, just want to bring this to your attention that the manual of Clariphonic need to be updated, I believe. It still shows boost/ cut but it's tight / diffuse now. I own this plugin. Love it !!!

[@fiddlefolk]

I love ribbon mics but if there is one gripe I have is they can be dark....until now! I got the clariphonic and it is the perfect solution and it is pure magic!

[@weatnucommunity5617]

If you can't afford such a nice piece of kit you can achieve much the same with Parallel EQ on your return tracks. Add a eq to return in ableton (or other daw) along with compressor in that return track, giving you more boost and control.

[@SergeyNeiss]

Damn! Just found your channel, gotta say you helped me with more with learning how to mix than any other youtube channel out there, because your approach isn't just technical, but very artistic

[@brunobar4716]

This is magic ... The plugin alone is worth the price of the subscription bundle alone easliy

[@Anonymous.android]

Best thing I’ve done recently is subscribe to that bundle. Used a few of the plugins for this mix I’ve been working on for what feels like a million years and instantly sounds sooooo much better

[@noeltorres438]

Me encanta este ecualizador! Super cristalino y orgánico 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@cholohermosa]

Sold. Take my money.

[@JoelLangley]

As soon as I saw this video I knew I had to go download the plugin. So worth it!

[@tomasagustinveravicentin7789]

It also makes it sound wider, so crazy

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

High frequencies in general do that, they're what our brains use to localize sounds. Probably because there was no evolutionary advantage to knowing where 60Hz was coming from, but that soft rustle in the bushes at night, you better figure that out fast!

[@harrisfrankou2368]

@@TheHouseofKushTV my favourite rack was a BBE in the Analogue days 688tascam. This has a similar affect but with a clean sound. It's like a magic master machine.

Wait'll you hear the new model with built in mid/side processing and a cut on the low band, it's "instant 70's woody drums".

[@DragonBiscuit]

May we have an updated video of you showing off the Clariphonic MS please? I’m just curious how else I might use mine - especially advanced things like hooking other gear up to the MS matrix etc. I love this magic box!

[@ezrashanti]

I have tried and failed 3 times to get the m/s matrix inserts to work, after having special cables built. I had to unplug them and give up on that for the unit to work properly. Is yours working?

[@michelleduc7759]

It would be interesting to pass the Clariphonic through the Waves Q Clone to see what it does on frequency response.

[@els1f]

Wow. This is pretty damned impressive!

[@INTOTHEFOLD]

That is amazing! I am blown away!

@@TheHouseofKushTV i don't know a man who hasn't lived through something similar. Clariphonic sounds incredible btw

[@bradzillarocks]

I've been running my mixes through an Elysia EQ after the bus compressor mostly for brightening, but I may need to look into the Clariphonic.

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

No need for a 'but', the Clariphonic (IME) doesn't replace standard eq's, it augments them. I moved mine off the mix buss and now it's welded to my drum buss, where I can get a bit more aggressive with it and leave the rest of the mix a touch on the darker side, for a best-of-both-worlds kinda vibe :-)

Dear greg'!For me sounds better than spl big! 'Cuz I want change from digital to analog... And my choose definetly will be clariphonic! The 500 siries sound that good too?

[@tgbitw17]

Great stuff Gregory. Quick question tho, It doesnt have a "Link" option Im assuming since i see you turning each side individually. Aside from the MS option would 2 of the 500 series modules basically be the same (L and R independent of each other?) I want to buy real soon but just need to make sure. Thanks

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

The 500 module is nearly identical to the original 19" model, except it lacks the 'FF' switch (which mutes the dry signal and passes only the filtered signal) and it lacks the Tight/Diffuse switch (it's always in Tight mode, since that's where 95% of users parked it anyway). The MS adds a lot more options, but if you just want the basic Clariphonic sound and functionality the 500 is perfect (and stupid cheap at the moment!).

[@BeyondtheEndMetal]

[@youcantno3963]

[@cypherdrone]

Hi Greg Does Clariphonic work for dance music like House,Techno ?

[@thomwettstein]

Thank you for this nice piece of gear! I have tested various EQ's and I decided to buy the Clariphonic. I compared it with the Bax EQ, if you want to hear the difference between them, watch the video on my channel.

[@johnnybrit804]

Hello, please enlighten me. I'm thinking of getting one. Considering the L / R bus, should the Clariphonic be positioned before or after Fatso?

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Either way is great, it's the same analysis as any eq before-or-after-compression. If you put it before the Fatso, you can press the high frequencies back down and thicken and smooth them. If you put it after you can add serious sparkle and restore some of the gloss that's lost after compression :-)

[@ChemistreeTV]

Hi Gregory. Please share a link to the first song "when you smile". I cannot find it anywhere. Not being able to listen to the full song is an injustice to music lovers 😅 Thanks for your channel sir 🙌🏾

Very Convincing demo that gets me interested. Would the ‪aphex exciter rack mount exciter processor‬ accomplish similar striking results at a fraction of the cost or is that not an appropriate comparison? Are there any users of either that have an opinion? Thanks.

[@Halunlimited]

Thanks much for your detailed explanation. I started experimenting more with my current Logic Pro X factory plugins. While popping in some EQ, compression and limiter, I unexpectedly found an additional resident plugin called "Exciter" which gave me some additional controls for enhancing my mix significantly in the direction of what I would expect from the Aphex (in conjunction with EQ) so I was pleased. Based on the excellent Clariphonic demo above and the ease with which it seems to reshape the dynamics dramatically in good sounding directions, and the fact that the plug-in is very economically priced and easy to install, I think it's definitely worth a try. It could be a fun alternative virtual knob twister to the DAW controls I currently have. The many positive reviews online also speak well for the Clariphonic approach.

[@thesimulations8900]

Considering "expensive" EQ's cost $4000+, this does not seem that high priced to me.

[@TheRealJPhillips]

U can give some guys the tools and how to use them, and they would still find a way to fck things up.

The MS has, in addition to Mid-Side processing, the ability to Cut on the Focus band, and stepped potentiometers. For what you're talking about, you don't need the MS's extra capabilities :-)
