Didn't expect to see Serj Tankian here. I love old SOAD albums!

[@David-wl7ft]

Attaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

[@dopplermedia4203]

Exactly what I thought hahahaha

[@reasonabletakes]

I thought I was the only one hahahaha...

[@curleypubes3672]

Lol.

'Grab a brush and put a little make-up!'

[@tomashortig6547]

Potato: Hey Alex thank for coming to do this video! Alex: My pleasure! Potato: We're going to record my fart. Alex: Wait, WHAT??? Potato: *locks the door*

[@MikeEdwardsphotography]

All these months later, on my filmmaking journey, I find myself rewatching this video, knowing now how important audio is. Thanks so much Gene. Def. subscribing to Alex's channel. He is a brilliant communicator and teacher.

Soooo many youtube audio tutorials full of people that have no idea what they are doing and just throw a bunch of effects on their audio tracks. This was excellent, knowledgeable and to the point. Good job.

[@philipbloom]

Gene and Alex this is such a great and useful video for people! Well done! :)

[@DarrinHowells]

Carrie: "I want one of Gene's farts as my ringtone." THAT is love. Put a ring on it Gene. It doesn't get better than that.

[@jarvis]

what a helpful video - wow i wish i had this when i was starting youtube

[@vcsfootball2641]

"You are an exhausting human being." hahahaha I don't know why I just can't stop laughing at it.

[@nanditdesai3384]

Serj Tankian explaining basics of audio is exactly what I needed to see today :D

[@Pepingco]

I have been using Premiere for decades - This is probably the most important learning I have had in a long time - I rarely use any audio edits because I never knew how to use them so all my audio work is done in the recording with good mics, good technique and great preamps and accessories so my audio edit is minimal. This has been a great and fantastic lesson and it has allowed me to be more confident in the premiere recording when I need that extra tool to save an audio file in my videos. Thankyou!

[@dukestamina]

taterjetter, I have absolutely crushed a good 20 of your videos this past week. Don't ever worry about being grating, your content is crazy educational and easy to binge consume... even for someone with heavy adhd. you've got a great hosting personality, Keep making good shit my dude!

[@SidneyDiongzon]

You're HILARIOUS dude!! On a serious note, this is probably the best audio tutorial out there.

[@B-Moye]

Alex's deadpan @0:50 is probably the best part of this video

[@followtheboat]

Love Alex's channel. Straight to the point and great info. Great to see the two of you together working on improving fart audio recordings. This is what I've been looking for.

[@sbk_nef]

Probably the best tutorial for getting better at audio fine-tuning on the internet, in the classic PotatoJet style. Thank you very much for the quality content. I owe you a cookie mate. 💖

[@YodisMatt83]

11:03 Potato bent over table "I guess you can never pull it out completely" as Alex is inspecting him from behind....

[@Mike_Benz_]

Great work on getting Alex on, it is great to see a video/film/camera channel get on someone who actually knows sound/audio, most video channels tend to just do it themselves without really understanding/knowing anything technical about sound/audio. Great work.

[@MichaDuboff]

Thx a lot Bro Potato!!! I´m like to her your native English speaking, because it`s very clean and understandable for me as foreigner! Greeting from a Russian bear, which lives in Cologne-Germany, actually Ì´m from Saint-Petersburg-Russia. Many success and health for you and your friends!!!

[@itsbrittjohnson]

I searched for a video about this and clicked on the shortest video I could find because I was frustrated and just wanted to quickly get the information I needed. The audio of them explaining it was terrible right off the bat- which is terrible if you're making a video ABOUT audio. Then one minute in, I saw your video in the corner suggested to me. Saw that it was 20 minutes long. But saw that it was you. And clicked it instead. I hope you know that theres people out here that value your wisdom more than the convenience of a quick video. I feel so much more confident in doing my own mixing now, and I know that these 20 minutes have been a powerful investment into the next 20 years of my filmmaking. Thank you for taking the time to make this.

[@CristiKerekes]

This is one of the BEST tutorials on audio editing, something that I've been searching a lot. Thanks guys, really cool!

[@hughesy606]

This is where KZbin needs a ‘really, REALLY like’ thumb! So much info in these 20 minutes and Alex is amazing (plus the way he looks at the camera is eerily reassuring)

[@prateeksingh6757]

This potato is quick. Back to back videos.

[@WilliamGuth]

Worth the price of admission just for the parametric EQ demo. I'm in the train to work right now where I will immediately be sitting down to some voice editing in Audition and I know I will apply this technique today.

[@justintaylor-moneymindset4073]

Wow I’ve been needing this video! I’ve been looking on KZbin for months for a video like this and haven’t found anything close to as helpful and informative as this

[@BillSebald]

This is the best video I've seen on this subject. Real nice work guys.

[@rosskinghorn]

This is one of the best tutorials I've ever seen!

[@ridegradient]

Currently working on a project and applied some of these techniques... What a difference! Thanks for putting out such easy to digest tutorials.

[@bergerbot]

Great conversation - I'm glad you brought up headphones, they are ultra important. Most people don't realize why It's best to get headphones that have a Flat Response. You don't want to edit any sounds or music with heavy bass marketed headphones for production, they are made for the end result alone.

[@brainwasher3742]

That’s really well done actually. One of the few accurate EQing videos on KZbin.

[@Vlican]

You guys are hilarious! This could've easily been boring af, but ended up entertaining af.

[@casperingels2220]

The best video on audio I've seen on KZbin! Thanks!

[@TheFeelButton]

You turn the better knob up then hit the feel button! Great topic!!

[@REC.709]

Potato Jet, This is the best effect ever, on one of your video, "That Wave" I will love to Surf it!

[@whosjozikolnik]

I was waiting for video like this for years!

[@korn3701]

This is the only channel that i watch that there is no intro

[@danielchebanov9401]

HUGE difference with every step!!! 🤯🤯🤯

[@lightpixeldotnet]

11:42 🤣 Oh shit this had me in stitches. Kickenburger is the man.

[@toddbarry7303]

Hahahahaa you want to record your "ring" tone as a ring tone... baaaahaaahaaa that's gold!!

[@toddbarry7303]

FYI: In Australia we nickname a butt hole as "your ring" if that makes more sense lol

[@cpt.mccartman]

This is like the 10th time I watched this video in the last few months and alex's yelled "precisely" catches me every time😄 Can't stop laughing 😄

[@AddictionHappiness]

Yesss perfect! Again Fun and instructive :) Loveee it Potato Jet!

[@mlegrand]

This is one of those videos that you need to save and come back and reference when working. Nice work PJ 👌

[@alexgradisher569]

Potato jet, I have had really shitty birthdays in the last decade of my life. This year I decided to spend my b day doing nothing. I just got done with a long production schedule. But even though I have to get to post for the rest of the year. I am truly enjoying spending my B day just chilling and watching your videos today. Thank you for giving me a chill B day for once!

[@KonnorGann]

This completely demystified EQ and compression for me. THANK YOU GENE. I subbed to Alex, he seems equally hilarious.

[@dannyderrick]

This is one of those videos that I'm going to have bookmarked and will rewatch every time I edit audio. Thank you so much for making it!

[@don_ald3245]

I honestly had missed such educative videos man, thanks Gene. We highly appreciate.

[@jooelewis]

The mommies out there are shedding a tear on this one

[@zihengshao544]

LITERALLY THE BEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER WATCHED FOR WEEKS! LEARNED SO MUCH! THANK YOU ALEX!

[@DLivingston]

I've spent most the day working on audio on about 20 videos today in Premier Pro, this was a great timing video. Thanks!

[@misfitstudiosinternational1635]

The most useful tutorial for any audio work. Thank you for this.

[@IzhanZubir]

"Precisely!" got me crackin

[@bruhmoment7797]

Alex Knickerbocker, what a mad lad.

[@BenjiCollege]

13:06 Gene acts like me in class while the professor is lecturing (making hand gestures, to distract myself)

[@KombiLife]

can't believe I waited 20 minutes to hear you fart ;)

[@ego_kvid]

This is such a cretive way of teaching things!!! I seariously learn a lot from you and the best part is that it’s actually fun to watch lol thanks for the awesome video Gene

[@Juone87]

Did Potato just invent a new word? "Chillaxed" 15:22 Like it a lot :D

[@rinusworldzm]

DUUUUUUUUDEE. THIS WAS FIRE, Already knew about working on audio but this is so good.

[@uumuu]

This guy is seems like just a fountain of audio knowledge and experience, really cool to see how he uses even a simple tools

[@MattBurke820]

Haven’t even watched the video yet, but this is the EXACT content I need right now! Thank you for this, can’t wait to watch it!

[@Eduardo1007]

Best compressor explanation I've seen in a long time, thank you!

[@ourunstablemind]

I didn't understand head or tail about this video. But saw it all and didn't skip the advertisement. Regards Joy

[@chubbiecheeks92]

Could you do a video explaining the differences between L, EF, and EF-S lenses?? Your videos have all been super amazing and easy to understand. Keep doing what you're doing! 👍👍

[@alvinwong3775]

Best line “how dare you call my voice irritating” HAHA 😂

[@JacekAdamczyk]

A.Hitchcock: "[...] Now, let us take a suspense situation. The bomb is underneath the table and the public knows it, probably because they have seen the anarchist place it there. The public is aware the bomb is going to explode at one o'clock and there is a clock in the decor. The public can see that it is a quarter to one. In these conditions, the same innocuous conversation becomes fascinating because the public is participating in the scene. The audience is longing to warn the characters on the screen: "You shouldn't be talking about such trivial matters. There is a bomb beneath you and it is about to explode!" I was on the edge of my seat the whole time waiting for the fart to come. Gene - learning from the best.

[@shaunamcgrory1]

Gene:I want to do fart recording.All viewers:huh?

[@MondoLoops]

I needed this, its painful listening back to my speaking videos 😂

[@SerhaschLive]

I learned more in your video than in 5 hours youtube resarch. thank you, now my shure sounds like a shure

[@BallEcomThatthana]

This is extremely helpful and could save me tons of money for a new mic! lol

[@KRUChY_80]

Alex got 12,000 subs now - nice work POTATO JET :)

[@ADudeAndHisWatches]

Just what I needed to hear for the video I am working on now! Thanks

[@INSTAFLIXMEDIA]

Now I announce you as the king of hook. Noone could come with the idea to use a damn fart as a video hook! I bow down to you o mighty king!

[@nanditdesai3384]

11:47 That 'precisely' was uncannily similar to 'you wanted to' in Chop Suey !!!

[@AAndinoPhoto]

Super helpful. Been working on improving my audio in my videos. Thanks guys. Great work! 👍🏼

[@youngkingpdk381]

How dare he call your voice irritating ! The audacity... on your own channel! 😂🤷🏽‍♂️

[@909sickle]

I think he was using Premiere, not Audacity.

[@SIKKYBEATS]

My man really just recorded his ass toot...this is the KZbin I've been looking for!

[@ChimneySwift11]

Awesome video Gene, very helpful. Thanks man!

[@tonylorentzen]

Potato making those waves reminded me of sitting on the backseat as a kid with my arm out the window. Great tips in this vid - thanks! :-D

[@outterlimitsprod]

You really were gna make me wait till 20:25 to hear that little fart of yours!? Smh I'm disappointed, yet looking forward to making that little fart my alerts ring tone now. I'll be patiently waiting for the big one, and I'm not talking earthquakes....

[@shiznuts]

Yo, no joke. I have been like super healthy for like this year and I just don't really pass gas anymore. So... I was clearing out some kitchen cabinets and found a can of chili con carne. I was like 'yeah baby, that's the jackpot right there, fart town, here I come!'. But bro. Nothing. Speaking of disappointment.

[@davesmith-ew1iz]

😂🙊💩😮🤫😉🌮

[@CreepyDan]

One day I will make you a real Jet made of Potato, to say thank you for all your greatness!

[@rexbenny1553]

I love how Alex stares into my soul.

[@stevehansen266]

Dude!! I've been messing with my audio for my new video for like 3 days and I was just about to re shoot the whole thing but now I feel like I can save it.. thank you!!

[@MisterJivs]

As a video person this definitely gave me a lot of insight in audio! Thanks a lot!

[@DannyTulu]

These videos are really entertaining 😂 You two are a good combination on camera. Also super informative which is the reason I'm here in the first place!

[@Li-bn2tw]

Love ur show! Thank you for technical support! 😁

[@joshuaholt88]

I love Potato's concentration face when he makes the wave form motion! 😂

[@moochannel523]

Thank you for your many lessons, Serj Tankian.

[@chrisbowpiloto]

Thanks for doing this video. I have been learning a lot from Alex but it was good to see how to do it with the software that I use

[@tombuck]

I’ve been using this awesome free app called Levelator to level things out. It’s a little quirky, but easy to use and works incredibly well.

[@Noealz]

Cool and nice to see your arm better

[@eddiegomez4134]

A set up from closed-back headphones. Is open-back headphones. High Pass = Let's the highs pass (Low Cut) Low Pass = Let's the low pass (High Cut) That's how I think of it. You can also do a boost and sweep to find those bad frequencies.

[@jaydivina533]

"It would mean the world to me if you would record one of Gene's farts and make it into my ring tone" If you asked me 2 years ago. What would you never think to hear on a Potato Jet video? This would 100% be it lol. Thanks Gene, Kari and Alex.

[@Freddieplatts]

Love this guys dry humour

[@jankalang]

Nice. Love the new content. Keep it UP. UPload more, since I finished binge watching all of your videos, thrice.

[@shiznuts]

This channel is really on the up and up.

[@cyclingmaven]

Seriously very interesting and helpful video lads.

[@drydockstudios]

Bringing in industry folks is always a great idea; good stuff.

[@YourJapans]

"don't go to low that's inappropriate" that was hilarious.

[@capnshankz3303]

I subscribed to Alex because of his audio mastery but mostly bec of Gen. More of this pls. 😊

[@AyushBakshi]

00:39 The face artist make realizing client's stupidity.. 😂

[@MichalOlender]

Good stuff, just subscribed to Alex's channel, some really helpful videos there!

[@grat2010]

This isn't even a subject I'm concerned about yet I found this video very interesting and engaging. Thanks to you both.

[@WhiteMic]

Okay I low-key needed this lol. Not that my dailog is bad, I am just a perfectionist.
