Oof, my ears

I thought it was my smoke alarm going off!!!

[@dannboioq]

Thought it was a fire alarm

[@iurigrang]

I couldn't before, so that was helpful, hahahahah

[@NightDocs]

On top of everything he’s talented with Nolly has the most relaxing and easy to listen to voices ever. How does one man get blessed with being so good at everything lmao

I guess im randomly asking but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost the password. I love any tricks you can give me.

[@angelian6260]

@Raiden Heath thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@angelian6260]

@Raiden Heath It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thank you so much, you really help me out !

[@raidenheath8985]

@Angel Ian happy to help xD

[@kennethsmith5383]

Bro straight up said "see those mids? Scoop 'em." It worked well.

[@snail415]

What I appreciate the most about Nolly is that he thinks before he speaks. Uses the ideal ways to describes very subjective things. With his experience and ears it's probably pretty easy to come-off as all-knowing or arrogant...but he never loses sight that mixing is really hard for everyone else.

[@89ji76]

It’s amazing how little processing electric guitars tend to need in comparison to other instruments. I guess it makes sense considering the guitarist has like a billion knobs to control their tone pre recording.

[@noblekeller9166]

I can’t thank you enough for these MasterClass lessons. I’ve always thought periphery had the BEST quality music. I’d pay for more classes honestly

[@Aeronaut1975]

"Masterclass" is an understatement! cheers, Nolly!

please do a video on dialing in a guitar tone! i realize GGD doesn't have a guitar plugin to promote, but it would be awesome to get some insight into how you work VST amps and impulses

[@Millweed]

At least how to mix "All the Gain" profiles

[@flagmuffin1221]

Probably soon to come now - NeuralDSP’s Archetype Nolly on the 30th of August!

[@dannboioq]

Just buy biasfx

[@snapascrew]

Thanks for boosting that whistling tone without any warning like 15 thousand dB that really made my ears happy.

[@James-yt6to]

I need to find the time to learn how to operate this software. The work you guys do is amazing and inspiring man.

[@trumancarter1299]

Every guitar mix I've heard from Nolly has the most beautiful balanced high end..guy has a fantastic ear

[@steveweilhart2359]

Awesome Nolly - I'm learning so much from your video's - Thanks so much!

[@smoreshaunted]

A lot of useful info in this video. Thanks Nolly!!

[@tetra3000]

Thanks for the tips Nolly

[@26CW128Jake]

I love this man...

[@AllenHarrison]

I feel like my notch hearing is getting better, I heard that whistle as soon as you turned off the eq and before you boosted it! haha

[@lodougherty]

I wish you'd show how you mixed White Bat by He is Legend. The guitars feel like they're everywhere, but still so tight, and there is so many subtle things going on. You're a wizard.

[@EmbraceTheWorld1990]

Nolly is a genius.

[@christopherpride3117]

I don’t care what anyone says, but this guy is better than CLA.

[@joeyvpoisonfree]

Christopher Pride fucking WAY better

[@snapascrew]

Lol.

[@brandonkeller478]

CLA is overrated he was good by early 2000s standards but the game has amped up since then

[@HiredGoonage]

define better. In what way is Nolly better than CLA. Perhaps you are saying you like Nolly better is all?

[@junkawakami3193]

@@HiredGoonage for starters, Nolly can actually mic up a real drum kit, whereas CLA would just mic up overheads then sample augment the shells (maybe he actually can, idk, you might want to correct me on that, but in his studio, i see him just miking the overheads). sure CLA is more successful but that doesn't necessarily mean Nolly's not up to the task for recording and mixing stadium selling bands like Green Day

[@TheNormanduartetolle]

Nolly is the John Danaher of mixing.

[@Bcwilderness]

have you used a dynamic eq a few db for mutes at the resonant lows nolly, love this vid, subtle moves

[@solarnewborn]

Is it a good move to put the rhythm and overdubs in a bus with a multiband on the mids so the guitars don't go overboard with mids, yet don't get too scooped in the absence of the overdubs? Or is automation better? You're awesome, thanks

[@jaredholton3145]

I would be curious to know what the signal chain was for recording the guitars prior to processing in the box

[@DanielKRego]

Nolly, what BKPs are in that PRS you've used for the track?

[@stepitupandgo67]

that EQ sounds so drastically better...I always muck up the q

[@dragonAwkward]

What monitor are you using? 😂😂 It looks dope

[@Riffnugget]

Did anyone figure out what Impulse response was used for these guitars? I know GGD Zilla wasn't used

[@TheMackyD]

Any chance we can purchase your impulse responses?

[@dangledangleton]

Daniel Mackenzie i hope you did now that studio cabs zilla is out :’)

[@KSANDI_Prod.]

Which guitar tone was used on rythm guitar ?

[@gbhrecordz]

Song name?

[@goldengod87]

Can someone recommend a audio interface box/guitar recording software for my windows 10 desktop pc??

[@swayamtailor]

focusrite scarlett and reaper

[@tehsimo]

That 166hz notch was genius

[@sleepyd1231]

May be a dumb question but why is standard give you more option in tones?

[@joeyvpoisonfree]

Dylan Ost less low end frequencies to worry about which makes gain levels and EQ a lot less chaotic to deal with

[@jacobfields8396]

bro is that an apple cinema display

[@mitch3384]

Something I don't get - I did an Audio Engineering diploma back in 2001/02. We were taught to always push as much signal into at each gain stage without clipping. No red for digital gear, "splashes of red" on analog gear. Here, Nolly (and heaps of producers) have really low signal. Is there a particular reason for this?

[@travislee9662]

Mitch "In the digital realm, we’ve got a lot of space to work with and a very low noise floor in most situations. This means that tracks can be recorded a solid 10 - 15 dB below clipping, leaving you all of that headroom for transient peaks & processing. You gain so much flexibility from leaving yourself plenty of room that the benefits easily outweigh the cons of not getting as close to that little red light as you can.”- Joey Sturgis

[@mitch3384]

@@travislee9662 Thanks Travis - I didn't know that! We were taught both tape and digital (ProTools), perhaps things have changed over the (18) years, or the tutors had it wrong with gain and assumed digital should reflect tape techniques. Learned something I'll actually use!

[@travislee9662]

Mitch yeah from what I read on that Joey Sturgis post is that it’s a hold over from the analog techniques of wanting to get it as close to clipping as possible. Good for analog then because it would produce a natural compression that would sweeten the sound a little but not as much for digital and comes out harsh. Everybody was trying to record digital the same but he’s saying it’s not necessary and you can leave yourself more room to work on the sounds later.

[@Z3R0RON]

What’s this song starts at the end 10:50

[@stevenparsons1211]

@@alexwales8914 the key reason i'm stuck on apple hardware.. they know what they're doing lol

[@alexwales8914]

If I bought a mac, Apple's proprietary creation software, i.e. Logic, Final Cut, GarageBand, iMovie, would be the reason why

[@NathanPetersonMetal]

Logic but if you just want it to look similar, I have Reaper with a logic theme and it looks 90% like that.

[@jordandupont7430]

Gret stuff - but truth be told it sort of depresses me because I don't "hear" a lot of the individual moves he makes even when I can see the plugin on and off. Really need to invest more time in this kind of thing

[@GhostCollective]

It comes with time. Hang In there. Sweeping eq frequencies like he highlighted at 3.3khz is a great way to train your ear what frequencies are where. Compression was a bitch for me to learn how to here when I started haha. Just keep at it!

[@stephenopolis3294]

You'll get there. Just takes some time

why do you film your self when you NEVER look into the camera? weird :) but nice stuff.

[@chorrol_imutenara]

Misha disliked. Does not djent.

[@johnthecreative]

that scuffam amp sim sounds noisy. doesn't really sell me on it even though he does a great job of cleaning it up it's still noisy. especially on the sustained notes they are noisy for no reason. no excuse for them to sound like that. part of the problem is likely the pickup on the strat if it's low output than means higher noise floor. Why use a strat on a high gain metal-ish song? Ever heard of Ibanez? They're pretty cheap and sound much better. I'm checking out after seven minutes of this but thanks anyway. seriously though what would this guy do in the old days without help from Pro Q?

[@zchali]

Interesting Video. Thanks. 1 thing though: You talk too much. Show, dont tell .

[@Zympt]

were hear to learn to you know, reasons for why hes doing things is important too.
