I totally LOVE analog!!!!!! PLease make more.

[@jameslugo]

Will do

[@chriskrueger1865]

Totally dig the POV experience, more please. And bravo for your song and performance 👍

[@jameslugo]

Yeah great video.

[@JarickL]

This is so cool to see, thanks for sharing! I love how he is doing all that work so fast just using his ears and knobs. So unlike all the mixing in the box I've done exclusively using a computer screen and mouse. Although it does make me a little sad remembering my dream job as a kid was to work in a recording studio and now I work on computer systems!

[@jameslugo]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@geurtsema]

Hi James, great song and performance! Very crisp and modern sound. Very curious to hear the final mix. Keep the vids coming, I appreciate you sharing all the things you are doing👍

[@jameslugo]

Thanks, will do!

[@OperationChicago]

This may be tha best mixing video on KZbin in 2024. This song is really well played and written. Questions: 1.. Where can I find this song please ? 2.. Where is tha Lexicon 480 L ? 3.. Why did you not use tha DBX 160 ? 4.. What is that plug in you are using ? Thanks.

[@jameslugo]

You can search Spotify or probably Apple Music for James Lugo Rely On, it's on all platforms. I don't know about the mixing you'd have to hit up David.

[@starlightsign8666]

Great emotion… well done James and Co✨⭐️🌟

[@jameslugo]

Thanks man

[@stevedoesnt]

That api 550eq really stunned me.

[@Skoora]

It really brought the kit alive, especially the snare.

[@jameslugo]

They’re nice for sure.

[@brunopradomusic]

That's pure entertainment. Please, post more POV SSL mixing videos. Thanks for sharing that. Great song and performance btw

[@jameslugo]

More to come!

[@soundcentral]

[@zonarecordingstudio]

It is all about the tune James,great job

[@jameslugo]

Thanks Zona.

[@ArmageddonStudios-l1z]

Hi James, I am a beginner mix engineer and I love the composition and arrangement of your track! I know this may be out of place for me to ask but would it be possible to practice mixing this track? Keep up the amazing work!

[@jameslugo]

Absolutely. Hit me up and I’ll get you the tracks. [e-mail] I’m glad you like the song. Thanks.

[@RezaMatix]

that's an awesome song. vocal kicks major ass.

[@jameslugo]

Thanks Rezs.

[@andreaford7218]

Wow! That's amazing! I need a good mixer and studio!

[@jameslugo]

Awesome.

[@mickpowell8391]

What a great tune......but what makes it is the vocal performance....especially when you go up an octave. There simply aren't enough bands or artists who can write and sing like this anymore. I would buy it in a heartbeat.

[@jameslugo]

Thanks Mick.

[@chasingtone2022]

Love this! Very cool man. Great song aswell.

[@jameslugo]

Thanks I put my heart into it for sure.

[@chasingtone2022]

@@jameslugo You can definitely hear that. Most awesome.

[@Rhuggins]

Man I would LOVE to mix this- awesome

[@Rhuggins]

Also love the speed of this, quick and to the point. Lovely organic and live feeling

[@jameslugo]

Hit me up and I can get you the tracks.

[@madsenamplification]

Great song James!

[@jameslugo]

Thanks Maynard.

[@Harrysound]

Oh this is fantastic. Uncle Dave is doing a great. That kick sounds really really nice. ca I ask are the drum real or plugin based? they sound well recorded what ever they are. I personally use SD 3. I'm probably going to watch this a few times.

[@jameslugo]

Real drummer. I tracked them in my studio.

[@Harrysound]

sorry about awful keyboard skills. I should read what I write before I post it lol @@jameslugo

[@AllOutOnline]

Dope

[@jameslugo]

Thanks man.

[@paulbonfiglio8661]

Nice James! Your voice is killer! How did you like the sound of the Origin?

[@jameslugo]

ThAnks Paul. I never heard a master just the KZbin feed. So I don’t know.

[@Aaron-vf5xm]

Any plans on releasing this song? Would love to listen to it over and over ;)

[@jameslugo]

Thanks. Yes I’m gonna rerelease all my songs in the next few weeks.

[@MartinVanDerSande]

Great song! The vocal needs to dominate the mix though because it’s awesome ❤

[@jameslugo]

Thanks

[@mickpowell8391]

How can I buy or download your music James? Love it!

[@jameslugo]

Send me your email and I'll send them to you [e-mail]

[@АлексейВискалов-и6х]

super !!!

[@jameslugo]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@TheSoundGuyInABox]

I'm wondering why there's an UF8 integrated in the console

[@jameslugo]

I wouldn’t know. You should reach out to David.

[@johndoe-cb5ck]

WOW! Would love to mix some real drums,been using the Blasting Room drums plugin. I'm an old analog guy trying to master the computer world of recording....how many tracks?

[@jameslugo]

Probably 60. tracks or so. Here are the tracks: we.tl/t-vCDAW6QvKR

[@johndoe-cb5ck]

​@@jameslugo WHOA! Thanks James!!

[@Polentaccio]

Hey James, does it make you miss your console and having a more hands on approach? I've got an old broadcast board and I agree that noise and all the cables running everywhere are not ideal BUT there's some magic there. I have a small setup of 20 channels and some 500 and rack gear so it's manageable but I think the key to analog just like ITB, is to keep it simple and not have too many options or else you will just flip switches for eternity...

[@jameslugo]

Not really. Console was a lot of moving parts and took away from creativity. For me anyway.

[@zonarecordingstudio]

I would be honored to mix one of you're tunes on the api ,and I will post on my channel,jz

[@jameslugo]

Hit me up and I’ll get you tracks if you want. [e-mail]

[@zonarecordingstudio]

Got them thanks jz@@jameslugo

[@jameslugo]

@@zonarecordingstudio Awesome.

[@marcinmima4779]

Great song man, but do you really like this mix?

[@jameslugo]

I don’t know I never was sent a mix. So I couldn’t tell you.

[@Nig6tWalker]

song,who is singing?

[@jameslugo]

That's me singing.

[@Nig6tWalker]

@@jameslugo great voice man!!

[@guitarzpt]

Love the song. Awesome vocals. Great guitar sound. Snare in my opinion is not that good. Sounds papery

[@jameslugo]

Thanks for listening

[@Skoora]

I think he got the snare to a pretty good place. That API EQ really dialed it in. I was just appreciating hearing a real snare drum…lol
