Pusher - Warm Punchy Distortion by Kush

[@dejanceko1891]

Most organic plugins out there...Kush audio...thank you.

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Thank you Dejan, I appreciate that kind of feedback, organic is what I strive for.

[@sighermike]

I agree. I'm not even sure how I came across the Kush plugins recently, but last night I signed up for the subscription. I'm in the middle of mixing a death metal album (I know, completely not what you'd expect with such organic plugins) but I found the clariphonic to be fascinating and I thought I wanted to throw that into the mastering phase. I'm also planning on using the Goldplate Reverb for a large 24 voice chorus that is in one of the songs. Use that with Waves H-Delay pingponging at different rates and you could have a killer sound.

I said it before, MAN you rock Gregory.. your whole aesthetic about your search for tone and how you make plugins just totally fits my need for tone smithing and chasing the vibe

[@apollon3791]

Everyone of your plugins are secret weapons!!! Subscribed to your plugins a month ago, not regretting it one bit

[@sambottner]

agreed

I was listening to the UBK happy funtime hour and you mentioned how you were doing something in this video that illustrates how to hear subtle processing. I'd say my biggest problem with mixing has been that I have a very difficult time hearing subtle processing and my mixes tend to feel unglued because of that. This video was a God send. Now you've got me hearing .5 db boosts and cuts and tiny moves on compressors that make a huge difference in terms of swing and transient information. I feel like I'm preserving the glue in my mixes while still giving things space and presence. I've gotten so much mixing advice from so many places and many sources really do advocate for pretty exaggerated processing but I'm now finding that these subtle moves give you something much more groovy and natural sounding.

I hear a little bit of what would become Wicked Lullaby. I think.. either way, your music is very quickly becoming quintessential to my rotation. Please release a Sneeky Little Devil LP someday! You are the Jiddu Krishnamurti of sounds, no authority and all nutrience, and the world needs that.

[@joejones4237]

subscribed last night for 2 reasons. 1. you give us so many great videos on mixing ,thanks , 2. these plugins are so much different than most companies and are amazing tools to make new sounds that other plugins can't .

[@caspermaster-com]

Impressed by the initial sound, then by the twekability and diversity of shaping the sound!

[@dzinstudios3538]

This thing OWNS drums!!!

[@Reggi_Sample]

I feel the original was so pleasing that using it on all the tracks affected it negatively overall, having it on just the drums was enough for me!

[@djdanrouge]

Amazing plugins all them from Kush. I use it a lot on my mixes. Thank you for making great things!

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Thanks man, it's my pleasure!

[@cabuffal0]

I just found the best transient designer.

[@deadscenerecords]

Thanks for helping me rediscover the value of this plugin (own it).

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

You're very welcome, it's the unsung hero of our lineup for sure!

[@midigek]

Thanks for the audio demo's ! Plugins does do some nice thinks !

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Glad you like them!

[@cliftoncameron5632]

The House of Kush and their Pusher is breath taking. I use them for mixing in the chain and it's phenomenal.

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Hey, wow, thanks for the kind words!

[@aRe_LoW]

I would love to see more in-depth videos (like this one) for your other plug-ins.

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Yeah, I've been thinking the same thing lately, like I can merge a video user manual and engineering masterclass with some saucy east coast nerd humor and roll it into one lovely bit of highbrow lowbrow edutainment 😛

[@aRe_LoW]

@@TheHouseofKushTV Yes, please!!!

[@birdcallprrr5837]

we're ready for it mr G @@TheHouseofKushTV

[@ddsrecording]

Should have called it Kusher! Need a plugin named after the Sour D name...next one? haha Wonderful plug! Still lovin' and using Clariphonic Mk2 on every single mix for the last 7 years or so (well mk1 for the first bit)! On master bus (always) and on individual elements in the "pre-mix tone shaping" phase. Keep up the outstanding work!

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Ha! I remember Sour D well, she was a very 'leggy' girl :-)

[@blackstrapyarnspinners9616]

Hi Gregory! I am a subscriber, and I love the "musicalness" of your stuff! I have one quick question - you refer often to "movement" on the drum sounds, usually in tandem with discussing release. I have to say I have no idea what you are actually talking about! Could you describe it, or even give us a video lesson in what movement means to you, how to alter it, and why it matters?

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Thanks! I recommend watching my “how to hear compression” and “parallel drum compression“ videos, I go into a lot of detail regarding how compression affects the movement and shape of the groove :-)

[@blackstrapyarnspinners9616]

@@TheHouseofKushTV I watched that a while ago, clearly I need to watch again. I see that the order you watch some of these in greatly affects their meaning...

[@J4R1O]

Just purchased Pusher yesterday but there are no any guitar presets on the preset list. Those two guitar presets(?) sound really good and I would like to try those on my track.

[@shanesimons8987]

Hey Kush do you have a bass guitar recording video. I'd like to have good sounding bass to send to band mates..

[@robertcain3426]

Yes, definetly. I find getting a good bass sound in the mix to be difficult. Maybe a bit of distortion is the answer.

[@ScottK4NE]

Freaking awesome plugin

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Thanks for getting it, it's the misunderstood black sheep of the Kush family :-P

[@ScottK4NE]

@@TheHouseofKushTV Transient processing is the most powerful of all things in audio! And this is a damn good secret weapon! I have to try it again!

Ooooofff - the funk!!! 🤤

Its looks like the controls for a ship from Farscape

[@henrik5284]

Wow!

[@15bleach51]

Can you release Lite version of Pusher without compressor section?

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Did someone slip you our 2021 release calendar?? :-P

[@DigiMixAudio]

No push like Kush!

Everything is ok, but not GUI ;)

[@TheHouseofKushTV]

Completely, 1000% agreed. Fixing it in 2021 :-)

[@buhlir]

I always start to think my drums are sounding cool and then I hear Gregs kit sound. ugh
