Mixing | Use UAD Ampex ATR-102 for Speed & Saturation on The Mix Bus with Jacquire King

[@GoodmanRecordingsTokyo]

Best tape explanation I've seen. Thanks.

[@siriusfun]

This was great, guys. I've been using the 102 on most mixes for the last 7yrs and ended up learning a few new things in 9mins. Thanks!

[@PuremixAudioTutorials]

that's awesome! glad it helps

[@RobertRyda]

to be honest i prefer the STUDER A800 (UAD-2). I find ATR to be too agressive compared to that one. But I probably used STUDER far too many times vs ATR

[@daan30]

Is it just me that couldn’t hear any changes between settings?

[@subversetheatre]

I couldn't but I assume it's because KZbin compresses every video into oblivion

[@kMaxRx]

I can hear it. GP9 sounds pretty flat, 250 is very low fi, 900 is a nice juicy saturation, 450 was warmer but flatter. Etc. It's subtle but real.

[@michaell.8938]

It's not just you. It all sounded the same to me.

[@MadeOnTape]

this video is wonderful and it felt like he could have kept going! I wanna hear more from people like Jaquire who know what they're talking about AND have good taste!

[@PuremixAudioTutorials]

Thank you for the kind words

[@moano3271]

Jaquire should do a full walkthrough of this plugin. I use it on every song, but if im being honest i don´t quite know how to properly operate it. I kinda leave it at one preset which seems to work, but still. Anyways..great video

[@crisnla1]

Lol same af

[@MikeHeebz]

Jacquire is the Mix KING! Learned so much from all his videos. Such an amazing Engineer & hUman BEing. Thanks for sharing the knowledge! Peace + Love. =)

[@PuremixAudioTutorials]

awesome cheers Mike

[@guillermocastromusic]

Great! As always. Puremix rocks!

[@PuremixAudioTutorials]

awesome Guillermo thanks for the kind words

[@RobertRyda]

It seems to my knowledge that the under/overBIAS setting is inverted to what this video states. CCW is overbiasing (more open highs), and CW is underbiasing (thicker lows). Try it yourself and do a much more confident relocation of the BIAS pin to hear what Im talking about.

[@filipjonathan]

What do you do when the mix is not hitting around 0 on the Ampex meter? Do you mess with the reproduce and record settings or use a gain plugin before the Ampex?

[@RobertRyda]

you arent supposed to gainstage like the final master's SPL where the limiter will just hold off the terrifying overload/distortion. Rookie producers work that way but its a disaster. The mixes made to work with old analog equipment and their software counterparts are made to accomodate signals at -18DBFS and your master would have a much lower SPL and without any limitation it would remain having quite much of a headroom and would require you to add lots of gain - and that's normal. A healthy master in that regard would need maybe +12db gain or more. For your sounds to sound good they arent supposed to be loud, they are supposed to have a good crest factor of a peak-to-loudness per sound

[@revelationsoundstudio]

Did I miss something, nothing was sound about the sync red button vs repro and thru?

[@reesebeatz1773]

Is there something similar to this on windows? Whats up with the +6 calibration feature? Young Guru uses this on every mix

[@AtTheSourceStudios]

Saturation before or after compression on mix bus?

[@E7lamAcademy]

He use it after compression because he want to emulate what he did in the past Which print the mix into tape

[@chrisdunnettmusic]

But where is the Tascam 244 setting ;)

[@bystrzak3991]

hi, can i buy the plugin and use it without owning any uad device?

[@PuremixAudioTutorials]

no it's only available with uad device! you might find similar plugins from other brands like Waves or other

[@bystrzak3991]

yeah i know but i really like the tone of the ampex, shame that uad do stuff like this

[@E7lamAcademy]

If you don't have uad Try softube tape And mcdsp analog channel

[@darkcharmrecords]

You can now

[@LinhVu-pf2pk]

I use and find it high pass a little.

[@angelgcastro1]

Can't heat the difference between each!

[@TheAerovons]

Tambourine better louder lol

[@dismalfist]

Double-track and hard pan tambourines fr.

[@YoungNino2017]

It's hammering that mix in a really bad way... do you not hear what?
