hey paul. please make a dedicated video for vocal only! not the very common process like eq-compress-deess etc. tell us how exactly should the vocal freq. curve look like. should we opt for flat equalization in vocals mixing or how about saturation. my raw vocals generally look like racing up and down in amplitude in eq. how each frequency should be consistent or not? pleaase paul

Good choices here! I am constantly using the Maag EQ4 (I like cutting using the 600hz to clean up nasal vocals).

It's about 5% to 10% better than the plugin (the air band is smoother and... well... airier...). Great video as always!

Thanks for that.. I've genuinely always wanted to know how it compared to the real 40k air band 🤓 Greg Scott made a comment that there's something in the phase that makes plugs struggle to nail these high band air eq's. I had a feeling the plug wouldn't be bang on the air band

[@briancase6180]

Thanks. Nice overview. I really liked my test of the HG-2MS, but I couldn't justify it separately. Maybe I need to spring for the subscription. You're helping convince me.... ☺️ I watched a review of the HG-2MS where the plugin was compared to the actual HG-2 hardware: there is a difference in the high-frequency aliasing (hardware: none, plugin: some). But, that could be handled by upping your DAW sample rate for printing the mix or with the plugin that lets you put the HG-2MS in an oversampling container (name escapes me at the moment).

[@PaulThird]

When I compared it to the hardware it was just overall depth that it lacked when all brought together. The MS can actually sound better used right but using them the exact same way I found the hardware had that extra 5%.somebody said to me they sorted a lot of the aliasing out in the new MS version but I never checked

[@briancase6180]

@@PaulThird Thanks! I have to say I might have misspoken: the comparison of hardware to plugin was for the plain HG-2 plugin/hardware. The video is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5WpdouwnduGlck The reviewer didn't, I don't think, cover aliasing in the HG-2MS review. So, I shouldn't say for sure they didn't address the aliasing. However, if *I* were the developer/marketer of this plugin and I did address/fix the aliasing, I sure would have made that front and center in all my marketing material, videos, etc.... Nevertheless, it's still an *awesome* saturation device/plugin, at least I think so (I shed a little tear when the demo ran out... :).
