Now already starting out with autotune I see. Love it. It's your signature move by now.

[@itsjosephmartin]

This is why Pete IS Pete! He said he's writing a song about a booger wall and my mind went to: Because maaaaybe You're gonna be the one that saves me And after all You're my booger wall But NOT Pete. He wrote an amazing song instead! Love the new video, Pete!!

[@PetexZen]

Haha thank you brother, that’s a great idea though, cover of wonderwall but with boogers 🙌

[@livx31998]

Comedic producing. Absolutely genius. Your content is so funny to us songwriters and producers that totally get how it feels. Thank you 🙏🏼 ya gained a sub 🤘🏼

[@PetexZen]

Yooo thanks homie! Glad you’re diggin it!

[@Jesus_rrs]

Missed your videos! It really is inspiring to see you work. Have you thought about any videos talking about amplitubes? I think that's what you're using for you guitar

[@Jesus_rrs]

I'd love to know how do you record your guitars at 12:21? Are you just recording at the center then double tracking and panning? 🥹

[@PetexZen]

Hey homie, I've got some videos on guitar tone! But yes I'm using amplitube, love it!

[@PetexZen]

Double track Left and Right! Sometimes for leads or softer guitar parts I'll just chuck on a chorus pedal and stereo it out. And yes hard pan always! Atleast thats what I do

[@Jesus_rrs]

@@PetexZen thanks a lot for your time and answer, Pete!

[@rubbaduborIdk]

I love watching your process

[@PetexZen]

Thanks homeslice!

[@JacobyWilliams-xg6nk]

Definitely one of my favorite beat/song you have made, sounds so good!!

[@PetexZen]

Sick thank you! Its definitely a contender for the album

[@WyattStensrud]

Aw man I’ve missed these videos so much!!! Hope you had a killer time on tour though! That’s so fun!

[@PetexZen]

Thanks homie! It was incredible to be on the road again, been a couple years so my lower back is still feeling it but I loved it!

[@DommoDommo]

New studio coming together nicely!

[@PetexZen]

Thanks homie! Hoping at our next place I can get a live drum kit set up!

[@lettersfromsuburbia]

Flicking boogers at home never sounded this great. 💯 AGREE an octaver guitar layer is essential now.

[@PetexZen]

Thanks brother and ya you know the sauce!!

[@DennyMan182]

We were talking about booger walls the other day haha you’re the best my dude ! Thanks for the shoutout! 🫶

[@PetexZen]

You are the inspiration for boogerwall hahaha

[@alexmessingaround]

[@PetexZen]

That’s a lot of pee pee poo poo humor type people!

[@Echosintheattic]

Love your channel! Learning so much about music creation! Who knows, maybe one day I'll get tired of creating Ai jamsz and start doing something real..

[@PetexZen]

@@Echosintheattic please do something real! Glad you dig the videos!

[@ElTigreGaming]

So sick.

[@PetexZen]

Thanks homie!

[@aaronfriesen7557]

[@PetexZen]

Thank you my brother!

[@connercrash]

New camera goes crazy

[@PetexZen]

Thanks brother, shot with auto color and everything, didnt really do much to it after I shot it

[@echothenatives]

I subbed based off this video... so rad!!!

[@PetexZen]

Thanks homie! Welcome to the booger clan

[@chrisgreen8215]

Awesome videos! What environments do you prefer in VSX for mixing?

[@PetexZen]

Thanks homie, I’ll switch between studio rooms and the suv sim! Great to check your mixes on fresh ears

[@fredthesmell100]

huge booger wall guy here

[@PetexZen]

booger wall kid turned into booger wall MAN.

[@VirginiaBluesOG]

New Strings Anyway

[@aleksi.korhonen]

What made you switch from the HD600 to VSX and how has the experience been?

[@PetexZen]

Funny story about that switch actually, when I moved to my new place I didn’t have any paneling or sound absorption up and my mixes were all out of wack for a couple weeks when I would check my low end on my speakers. One of my clients offered to get me the VSX headphones to help me out and I’ve been loving them! My process is usually do a rough mix on speakers, adjust on headphones, adjust on speakers again, then through VsX I’ll check the other rooms it has to make sure my balance is feeling right. The biggest help has been the car sim rooms to be honest. Still have my hd600s but I just use the 600 sim in the VSXs haha vsxs plus some good speakers would be a killer combo.

[@tusharsarmet3771]

hey man can you share your views on vsx. is it worth the hype and what about clarity

[@PetexZen]

I really like them! But they’re not super accurate to the real headphones that they try to simulate but they are perfect for checking the levels of your mixes on other speaker situations. So it’s super useful

[@tusharsarmet3771]

@@PetexZen can you monitor on them

[@tusharsarmet3771]

@@PetexZen what about sound design. Can you do that?
