[@forgettable8365]

It's been a while since Tony appeared! Happy new year!

[@cripesalmighty4744]

Great bass tone

[@CubiqueDJ]

That bass sound good, Tony.

[@1flashstep]

To me it sounds better without the parallel mixbus but eh , im a no one and this is an famous mixer. (I'm not saying it sounds bad , don't misunderstand)

[@area51audio]

I use this plugin after amplitube for tracking my guitars to mimic tube amp sag. It's so far my fav for that use. 2nd fave is the black rooster version of the altec.

[@vecchiuz2143]

On my bamboo and Wood flutes nothing Sound better than this compressor! I m just in love with it!

[@emanuel_soundtrack]

this is one of the most elegant things ever, maybe the first that i learned. Now i am fascinated with the mid side compression

[@mentalprogram5256]

Great plugin. Just bought it love the stero with presets on Act gtr. Better with DDMF metaugin to oversample. Maybe one day wave give us this ability.

[@Skkyyyyyyyyyyy]

Uncle Tony!!!!

[@tempesthoughton4441]

I bought this compressor on the day is was announced on a whim and loved it the second I put it on a track. I gotta try that parallel mixbus trick with it for sure.

[@robheskin]

Is he using a carmex container to prop up his faders?

[@kn0btwister]

Holly shit! The mix is so rich...make this a tutorial Tony! Thank you...

[@cgsmithinnola]

Very helpful! Thank you!

[@busywl69]

Tony is the real deal. I get a kick out of audio engineers and producers mixing details like the general audience has worked in the navy as sonar technicians and go home to bower and wilken speakers everywhere . Most folks are good as long as they can hear the vocals or drums beat today Especially with today's Bluetooth pod speakers and earbuds. I hope it does go back to craftsmanship cuz I'm not hearing a lot of care in audio recordings today. At least with the charts. The live performances I hear by KZbin's sound better to my ears and that's kind of mind blowing.

Acoustic Guitar VST ????

[@torreznor]

This. Fake as duck.

[@CarlMiner]

100% A fake AC guitar

[@DonNadie_001]

Maestro Siempre Buenos Tips 💯

[@JayYarbroughMusic]

Never enough Maserati videos. Very much enjoyed this one.

[@SEVRR]

For a video about audio compression you would expect better audio mixing

[@jtdimension]

I bought this plugin with many expectations for using it for fingerstyle. I must say that it didn't help for the acoustic guitar. If you are wondering to use it for acoustic guitar, do not buy. Anyway, looks great and it is great for anything else.

[@pianonoir997]

i do not need it :)

[@filtafacta]

[@relaxmax6808]

too much shhhhhhhhhh in the mic . I can sell you a 50$ interface and mic : good sound.

[@mkm0901003]

it’s just mind blowing. flat&mediocre mix to full&punch&3D Mix, in just a second. damn it.

[@darkdevil2869]

Sometime this compressor make things awesome and sometime it ruin the mix

[@juanleonardocamachomedina6014]

Bien

[@paolovic1]

For recording on my PC I use a software called MixPad NCH and I really don't understand how I can use all these fantastic plugins on my computer. Somebody can give me a link with some instruction?

[@waves]

Hi @Paolo P, please note that MixPad NCH is not officially supported with our V12 plugins since our plugins were never tested nor qualified to run on this host application. For the full list of Supported Hosts: www.waves.com/support/tech-specs/supported-hosts

[@HEYRONEL]

No cambia nada

[@boblowmixes2636]

I wonder how much Tony gets paid for doing this?

[@pascalmerschaudio]

not as much what you think this times are over mate

[@chiefyovany572]

Man shut up

[@Threemicsrecords]

Base on sound and video quality, not much :D

[@djbremsespor]

Cool, but lets not use Zoom calls for important Tony Maserati explorations.

[@waves]

Hi @DjBremsespor, this video was recorded remotely at Tony’s Upstate NY home, away from his NYC studio. RS124 is Tony’s favorite compressor, so he generously wanted to share his thoughts about the new version, despite the socially-distanced conditions - we’re very grateful for that! :)

[@pesto12601]

Lol.. sounds all the same to me .. on .. off... fuse... whatever... guess that is why I"m not producing for Beyonce... lol...
