[@Oneweirdperson-g8i]

I never leave comments but I had to for this video. Straight 🔥🔥🔥 The legendary Guru and an artist I am going to start following now. Vali Contra is dope. “This year was doggy dog I think all o y’all looking for a belly rub” 🔥🔥🔥

[@briandarnell4638]

Super compelling because I'm coming from a pop-rock writer-producer perspective. It's the same language. Music and music production is gonna heal the world. Thanks guys! My eyes are a wider open, Thank you.

[@moano3271]

Her voice is incredible 👏

[@hakproductionTV]

I've only had a twin appolo for a week and I didn't really know the Universal Audio system other than the name. and this live fell just in time because it allowed me to understand how artists, producers and sound engineers work with apollos. it was a great live because i learned a lot and more with the universal audio system which is new to me. and thanks to this live I learned a lot of things. continue this kind of live because it is really very interesting and enriching. peace from a producer from france

[@gurtana]

Wow, this is basically a masterclass. So much info, tips and tricks to digest from the pros. Thank you for all for doing this with excellent commentary explaining why.

[@gwcoolduude]

This is why i dont watch regular tv , keep up the good work guys im so inspired (uk salute)

[@HITMUSICMAKERSGROUP]

Damn guru was dead on it .. The vocal Tone is perfect; especially for this track.. Guru was right about energy since the tune is kinda a laid back mello track anyway, vocal can't lay back too far into the track. I hear this on the radio.. I hear hitz! :) This one's got longevity! Shalom

[@khalidali6225]

Good inspiration about to release my single probably in a few weeks!

[@zanza_the_rewolverine]

Great studio time, Now mixing technics with Young Guru

[@GBANI]

Leaving from this one with the settings for the 737. I do have 2 Supressers set up on my UAD Console when tracking, but it had be nice to see what Guru uses for deessing when tracking.

[@JonReynoldsESQ]

This was a fantastic program. Not sure how I got here, but glad I did.

[@Darksagan]

Same

[@mimidhof2179]

Yeah, nice, this is so good guys, waou this will become a hit. The singer and the raper are dope... good job everybody.

[@ELWOOD333]

Really dope content , learn so much and this is the second session I watch with these two great engineers .

[@DaltonMundy-x2b]

Can we talk about these fire instrumentals while we wait at the beginning! Im vibin waiting.

[@sifer2407]

53:51 man that is so true. Have no clue why people sell presets to sound like someone else. Every track is never that same. Peace god!

[@HITMUSICMAKERSGROUP]

@Ben You guys should beef up the LAN, was really hard to hear the second part of this broadcast with the Host cutting out so often! Shalom

[@LegendDayProductions]

Guru it's good to see you in Action Sir! You an UAD Crazy!

[@disickwashere]

[@chrisjennings5731]

Wow! These is A1 GEMs!

[@aliltalent28]

This is incredible!!!

[@marceloribeirosimoes8959]

For me the best arrange/mixing sound of this great song happens during these sections. The final version I could find on web just don't cut it. Sadly...

[@HITMUSICMAKERSGROUP]

I'm with Cruz on the Cut track.. I like doing that as well

[@CabesCwb]

Nice masterclass, you great but Ben let the masterminds talk, you cut them a few times when they had something in mind... Breath a little bit and let them flow with the ideas! Thanks Again UA

[@davidtrig]

I love this man GURU Wowowow, in love hahaha, true knowledge gems every 5 seconds and the song OMG

[@brianwynn10]

This help me out a lot thanks it make me wanna buy more plugins to play with to get better

[@UniversalAudio]

👍🏻

[@davidbutler1006]

She soooooo 🔥🔥🔥

[@Highlineheros]

I got a tip and a trick when live streaming use an Ethernet cable directly to your router. It will get rid of the chop.

[@marcusbradford2014]

well I'm recording on mixcraft nine prostudio and I would like to know should I record the vocal wile the effect is on the track. or should I put the effect on after the take?

[@danielwhynter]

on...this gives the artist a sound or vibe.....but hey anything goes as long as it accomplish your goals

[@FlorianSongs]

Guru is a genius!

[@UniversalAudio]

Can confirm.

[@kyanokashi7501]

where can I find that video you inserted when you had technical issues?

[@tonygbrill]

Love this!

[@napoleonhardridge7014]

The game is not to be SOLD but TOLD/ but only if you still have a SOUL/under your, CONTROL/making sure ThaT The YOUND live longer enough -- to be OLD... This is a rap I wrote for your intro... (thaT and The is emphaSIZE like beatbox on the snare. OLD at the end (D) beatbox on D on kick or snare) Can you FEEL IT!.. Beatbox and rap at the same-time -- WoW!..

[@ParsaT94]

Is there a list of plugins they mentioned for the vocal sections?

[@oakdalewoodz]

How do you improve CPU usage. When ever I add 7 or more plugins my CPU begins to crash and act up even if I adjust the Buffer length. 💬🤔

[@xXDrOPdEAdJo3yXx]

Optimizing your computer by monitoring RAM and CPU usage, turning off any background applications, turn off Wi-Fi. I use Cleanmymac X to monitor where my CPU usage is going and my internal temp. Also using multiple windows in your DAW at the same time causes the internal temp to rise. Just some things I like to keep an eye on while mixing, but also make sure you mix down any midi tracks and possibly starting a new session with those stems to ensure you don’t have a lot going at once. Hope that helps!

[@HITMUSICMAKERSGROUP]

Yo this track is str8t Heat.. I'm probably super late stating this :) #Dope

[@nuwans5213]

Mint!

Consider creating QR codes for the panel/artist's social media and place them on the screen for convenience. Or just provide a link in the description. #UniversalAudio

[@ags911]

Is that the Sony c800g microphone she’s using?

[@UniversalAudio]

Indeed it is.

[@sigma__ad]

This guy reminds me of Dave Pensado

[@MYNAMEISKLAY]

Now get Guru in the studio with Jay and I'll pay $49 for it.

[@realspittv4578]

Every one says you don't need this gear or that gear. lol. but the pros are always in the best studios, with the best mics and the best equipment. and when you do get signed the first thing the AandR says is we need to re record the whole album. lol. equipment matters. Dont let them lie to you. it matters. just got an ssl 4000 and it matters, those plug ins don't come close to the real thing. Now all my friends want to run all there songs thru it. lol. Why if the plug ins are just as good. facts.

[@brianwynn10]

What plugins do you feel like worth buying

[@Krewz]

Let’s go 🙃

[@blackhollywoodbizness7269]

Please make satellite compatible with Big Sir 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@HUERITO818]

How hot are the vocals coming?

[@UniversalAudio]

1/2 to 2/3rds up the meter, as always.

[@classicvybzbeatz]

Fire

[@nurdafrikhanbeatzthetrip1406]

i have to commend the artist in this video

need to release subtitles for other languages

[@luv.matters]

he sounds like J.Cole tho maybe he writes for him

[@CraftWon]

Or maybe he idolizes Cole.

[@JamarConley]

I think he should have added a pop filter that he could adjust. The plosives and proximity effect kill it for me. They could've got a way cleaner full vocal

[@YaBoiMOE]

🔥🔥🔥

[@SteelStringThing]

This would have been much better if we had been able to hear Bens comments which are also very helpful on the software side of Luna... great otherwise

[@marceloribeirosimoes8959]

How can I shove a million of likes on that YT icon?

[@siahsi390]

Definitely feel like I’ve been missing out by not using Luna.

[@norfsyq9660]

Really wanna enjoy this stream but damn that audio is sooo choppy 😭

[@ChandoRibeTrack]

when does this song come out?

[@UniversalAudio]

Nothing to announce at this time, but keep an eye on Spotify.

[@ChandoRibeTrack]

@@UniversalAudio okay. btw i have been trying to get in contact with customer support for the last 4 days but no answer. Can yall please look into case #513447 ??!!

[@marceloribeirosimoes8959]

[@petegiant]

Ironic that the audio is so choppy

[@UniversalAudio]

It will be!

[@just4dalaughters431]

Am I the only one hearing the cracking part? Specially when the woman was singing

[@nurdafrikhanbeatzthetrip1406]
