Recording Vocals With Dave Pensado - Pensado's Place

[@supersquare]

Every ITL has been awesome, but Herb picking Dave's brain for half an hour is absolutely amazing and Dave was on fire in the Batter's Box. Loved this episode!

[@Drizzydid]

Could you imagine if someone like Dave was your uncle growing up as a kid. My goodness. Would be visiting every day!

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Just ordered my copy!! 📖

[@TheBlashMusic]

God bless Dave & all the engineers sharing their knowledge! Peace+Love

[@theR0ck3tsumm3r]

For anyone who is intermediate looking at a new mic: the mic I use is an Aston Spirit! $449 retail. If you’re looking at an SM7B, it’s pretty much just one step up from that mic. I’ve owned mine for almost a year & ive had tremendous results with it 👍🏼🌟

[@elliotgaborone5313]

It's as if you knew I just ordered my 1st mic, Rode NT2A Yay!!!! Major Thank you on the Groove 3 All Access... :)

[@dachopup8495]

Great mic for the money that's the mic I plan to get in the near future

[@leonitvs]

Best Batter's Box ever

[@jakenuno9900]

One of my favorite episodes for sure. 👍

[@LukeGibsonSS]

"What if this singer likes Methamphetamine? Would you..." "Who doesn't like it?"

[@abinari]

one of the best guests on pensados place is dave pensado

[@jcav764]

Thanks Dave & Herb. Quality episode with some nice humor thrown in lol.

[@drummerjeroensimons]

You guys are all pros, like Warren Huart also is... My deepest respect for you all of you!!! Mixing is such an art of music too...:)

[@harmonystudios1182]

Agreed completely! Dave and Warren are the two I trust the most!

[@KudaKwashe]

Hey Dave and Herb. I'm a recording engineer; dancehall, reggae where performances are usually loud. I've found that without some sort of compression on the vox performers arent comfortable and can hear themselves in a stable way. Is this a good practice? Or what would you advise for these situations Rode NT1 DBX1066 Digi 002 Rack

[@rickdeaguiar-musicreflecti7692]

What an awesome interview. So much great information from the music industries very best. So enjoyable :)

[@MR.MILLAGUI]

Vocals 12:00

[@bhargavdobhal5327]

Thank You 🙌🙌Very Helpful Video 🔥🔥🔥🔥.

[@ArtbyAtlas]

I was not expecting Batter's Box to go that way. Talk about a plot twist! lol

[@Jozelo]

The 2 preamps that Dave mention are Maag Preq4 & Chandler TG2 ... right? 🤔

[@realraven2000]

23:30 how do you hear when the capsule collapses? I sometimes hear "fuzzyness" from the pre-amp and find it hard to set the right threshold for getting rid of it; could this be caused by overdriving the capsule with too much sound pressure (close micing)? 24:40 even when I co-write with my singer I often struggle to get the same openness / consistency in sound. achieving day to day / week to week consistency would be my biggest goal.

[@NickWarnerMedia]

Dave, if you havent "mastered compression" 19:12 yet... we all have no hope. hahaha

[@tonyatkinson4496]

Best batters box ever!

[@अमनचोपड़ा]

BEST BATTERBOX !!! LOVE YOU GUYS !!! THANK YOU !!!

[@АхмедСуфражилов]

The best batters box! Dave killed it!

[@NorthWestLacrosse]

lmao I was way too high watching batters box, sh** was pure comedy

[@flexsolar9359]

So glad to have a chance at this 😁

[@perrypelican9476]

IK makes incredible stuff. Those little iloud monitors are wild. And the IRIG gear gives you an ipad recording studio outside in a field with batteries. Fun fun fun with quality.

[@kicksncapz]

@Dave... Can you Really hear the difference in the Sphere L 22 system mics and their models or is the technology still not there? I don't know anyone who has one to hear it for myself. Thinking of purchasing one.

[@sidroler4698]

Great video Dave! I enjoy all informations witch are real helpfull

[@Only1Science]

Should we be entering the giveaway every week or one entry is enough?

[@moano3271]

I wish Dave explained why he don't like popfilter. This was great tho..as usual 👌👌

[@futurebeats898]

You lose definition (transient and top end)

[@gunluv96]

Awesome interview, and Dave killed the batters box. Something in found very amazing was when he talked about the preamps he said that he thinks that neve sounds dated. I know somewhere in the world a mass engineer suicide took place at that moment. ;D awesome stuff as always. Please keep it up guys.

[@IgorThompsonMusic]

Always nice songs on examples! Good stuff! TnX

[@sidude8795]

Gotta love Dave..!

[@ProdByTimDuncan]

That Batters Box was hilarious 😂

[@LovenArtiste]

Who are they talking about around 22:30?

[@ohmyleftside]

[@pcgearlabtv9043]

I have to admit IK makes some pretty awesome stuff.

[@AllOZA16]

what was the name he said for best vocal mixer? was it lesowski? anybody know.

[@avrhmmusic]

So much good info in this episode. In regards to mics under 500, i wonder if anyone can share some thoughts on the Audio Technica AT4040?

[@brendonnahwegezhic2931]

its a workhorse of a mic, can get a good tone on some voices but not all. save for an AKG C214

[@avrhmmusic]

@@brendonnahwegezhic2931 Thanks for the tips man! Much appreciated

[@genericwhitename8776]

Shout out to the MJUC

[@JanBroe777]

What’s a mog mic pre? Can’t find anywhere?

[@djndustry]

@rusclemania7 7 Maag PreQ4.

[@jelissasoto3611]

Tracking gear matters so much

[@DOENERUSCHI]

Okay, did I understand Dave correctly when he said he goes to Genius to find out in which studio a record was made? The lyrics site? Where do you get that kind of information there?

[@671brayan]

If we signed up last week do we have to sign up again for this week?

[@HitMenProductionGroup]

Y’all are hilarious!! Another good episode!

[@dachopup8495]

That modo bass is a cool plugin

Order the best gear you can buy.

[@lastcall9998]

Mug preamps? Illustrate me please ( I googled it, nothing, Chandler gave results though).

[@djndustry]

It's the Maag PreQ4. Good complimentary piece alongside any Chandler TG2 version.

[@vhollund]

That bass does not sound good but you made it work Check out Scarbye

[@himdownstairsmusik]

Kuk is a Monster boy....

[@draztiqmeshaz6226]

Hey Dave.. today I learned that you and Bob Weir have the same speaking voice. Maybe you two could help each other get a day off once in a while.

[@slowaves]

Might have been obvious to others, but Dave's saying 'Kuk Harrell'... I dunno what I was hearing, like Kook Carrell?

[@tombohne3579]

anyone understood what mock or moog mic preamp he´s talking about?

[@sdenniscrosby]

Can’t imagine Dave losing his temper

I bet he just does a sigh when he's mad.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@bboymac84]

Dave’s a bed wetter! 😂

[@JordanVincent]

I usually agree with Dave, but wholeheartedly disagree with his philosophy on singing with headphones. In the cans you hear what it's going to sound like on the final record. You should absolutely record with headphones, and learn to work it to your advantage like an instrument. Like Sinatra did. Same as a guitar player recording with a big tube amp. Would they listen to their clean tone when they record?

[@TheHmm43]

I think his point was similar; its important to practice with headphones, (and you put it well to say treat them like an instrument) because it's the best method, but people who are not familiar hearing themselves through phones might not be comfortable and then will not be able to deliver as they might normally.

[@conorm2524]

I think more high-end performers should wear their in-ear monitors like they do on live shows. Total noise cancellation too.

[@MikeyBizzle4Shizzle]

Everyone’s on Adderall these days

[@ernieg]

IK MUTIMEDIA PAID PENSADO.

[@theoriginaltommysteward]

Seems like one of those obvious type things that doesn't need to be said

[@iOWNyouFOOLaskYOmama]

So what?

[@NickWarnerMedia]

good! then he can keep making great content for us all to learn from!!

[@sdenniscrosby]

Better them pay Dave than me pay him lol

[@briangreene7085]

That bass sounds naff, anyone? or is it just me, it's not the worst, but it's nothing special and doesn't convince the ear enough that it's not a VST.

[@luzitylmg1349]

Mod

[@luzitylmg1349]

What’s the Mod Mic Pre Dave ?

[@АхмедСуфражилов]

I think it's maag

[@lesjuly]

4:51 MODOBass does NOT sound like a REAL bass. Only a real bass player sounds like a REAL Bass. Hit me up. Seriously. Peace.

[@anthonyegan59]

All them basses, only problem being Time ..which is limited for us All.. I hate Digitised sounds ..they dont get into ur soul . Because its changed , pedals and all them crap innovative add ons.

[@vegardmagndal7190]

«Played all the parts himself» a bad programmed drumbeat and a guitar sample from splice...

[@dachopup8495]

Lol

[@TheHmm43]

Yea I took that as a bit of a smartass comment

[@stefanwessel6092]

Hey Dave! Next time you need a real bass call me. This sounds nothing like a real bass. And I think you know that ; ) Seems to be really hard to replace a bass with a sample/algorythmic plugin...

[@ytsucksnowwiththisrealname1096]

He really doesn't like goodbyes
