Legend! I love these videos Waves keep em coming!

[@yobhsiFehT]

But can we talk about that drum PERFORMANCE, tho! 😳😮

[@Anarxo.]

it's hilarious to show some plugins with such a background behind xxxx looks like a Lego man. I wish I didn't get gearomania too.....

[@broklanders4730]

Never tried the plugins (maybe they can sound just great) - but the drums in the video and how he treats them (hardware and plugin-wise) sound plain horrible.

[@shahrammoayedi6246]

Hi , this kind of video who says i use this or that is useful ? i'm hearing and watching the messy drums and a huge console !!! i think the main Mixmen of Waves SW with original signature plug-ins are all legend and i enjoy every moments of their speech

[@contemptcreatorarthurave4042]

He's showing you the room sound...

[@shahrammoayedi6246]

@@contemptcreatorarthurave4042 did you ever mix drums in albums ?

[@shahrammoayedi6246]

@Josh Thompson did you ever mix drums in albums ?

[@joeking9760]

The important thing to take away is the way the engineer thinks and applies technique to achieve what he envisions. The plugin is meaningless and so is his hardware. Fun tools though for those interested.

I wish he can show some Slipknot stuff from mixing perspective.

[@wernerclarssen2939]

Wait -This is advertising ? Sad thing - started good, but....

[@IntheDAW]

my first bundle I bought from waves was the Neve series then I bought the tape tubes and transistors bundle and to be honest it's still my favorite one.

[@pierre-claudemeriot6562]

2:15 sneaky dog walking by lol

[@crossoverproductions3184]

Is he the guy from Die Hard?

[@charlie_sin_mag]

Sgt Powell? I don't think so but I could be wrong

[@autodidacticprofessor869]

I haven't found a software compressor that does what the Pie does on rooms.

[@BenA718]

Ian Ballard The PiE is a wonderful comp! Love it on drums and bass.

[@directed6924]

The sound of this compressor is unbelievable.

[@manfrombritain6816]

drummer is beating those things to death

[@ExELCiS777]

Haaill Barresi!!!!!

[@sgfdancecompany]

Joe is a master!!!

[@Rhekluse]

I'm a simple man, I see Joe Barresi and I click.

[@psygotran2814]

I wanted to hear more from the desk...

[@SpendCroof]

Is that explaining or Reclame?

[@marcospalazzesi8013]

great. I could be made on a stereo bus, right?

[@Mrbambony]

is this not just a Waves advert?

[@ehoc42]

It is on their KZbin channel

[@jasonjasonjasonjasonjason]

thumbnail looked like VMR

[@michaelwirth6843]

I think this is as far as it can be from my preferences of drum sound. Does this sound good?!?

[@betteroffdead79]

It is a ROOM sound, to be blended with the other drum mics

[@robbayne7874]

i love these videos with these guys with $100k+ worth of rack gear using a $29 plugin. Who's getting duped here?

[@allosound1781]

Yeah don’t be fooled... its all the performance, the plugins just add that extra 10%. Want drums like this, get a drummer like this.

[@jsullivan2112]

Actually it’s all about everything combined. And good judgment.
