Yea, Richard!

Thank you

Be a pro and talented mixer is the way to get clarity 😂❤

I enjoyed the whole video the other day. I was a bit surprised about 'his masterbus' (mixing into)

Como se llama el software para transferir files?. Sampli ?

Shure SM7b for loud parts and SM57 for quiet.

SUPERUNKNOWN isn’t just good, it’s heroic.

One thing I don't understand: if the goal was to not drive Chris crazy, why not putting the U67 and U47 as close as possible and record with both on separate tracks at the same time, then comping louder and quieter parts from each track. Did they need exactly the same precise spot for recording, or was one only track available for recording (he named the Studer after all)?

I disagree with the rationale behind tracking things individually. I don't care how "used to it" people are now, you're always going to get a much more natural performance as a musician if you can see and respond to the people you're playing with. I don't even think you actually sacrifice anything sonically. I listen to tons of producer interviews, and a ton of the biggest producers still track the entire band together. If they're getting amazing sonic results, I'm sure Michael could too.

Try recording female opera singers! I did it for ten years and trying to get them close to the mic when they had voices like rocket engines was not easy. I used a U87 with a ribbon mic mounted above pointing downwards which allowed me to capture both flavours and I could blend to taste. 😎

It did sound like he was right up On the mic. It’s a sound I’ve tried to reproduce in my own recordings. This was extremely helpful. And the speaker trick is really cool, too. Sounds to me like it would produce a delayed layering effect? Something for me to try. Great video!

Working with Eric was the most joyless musical experience of my career. All science, no soul.

The out of phase speakers I guess means one of the speakers is out of phase ? And is it firing right at the mic? I always wondered this even with James Hetfield singing on the Black Album with two small speakers firing at his face instead of wearing headphones while recording.

My favourite of the grunge era bands and the production on this album is unreal - the drums are awesome. My only criticism is that it’s too long. Would’ve been much better with 9 or 10 songs.

Wow. I recorded with Ryan in 2005 at pulse recordings in LA. He is a legend. Next time you speak with him, ask him about the neve sidecar at pulse.

Love it man thank you!

whoa! awesome and incredibly insightful. One of the greatest rock records ever. That sounds like he was trying to get fired! lol. Love the tidbit that they gave Chris the controls when recording his vox. That makes a ton of sense and is awesome. But it occurred to me while listening, why not park the U67 and the U47 2 feet from each other and let him switch which one he's signing into when he wails? Comp the takes afterwards and no diaphragms would be harmed... would that introduce phase issues? I'm shite with that stuff.

One of my all timers...... So many reasons why too.

i thought he used Friedman amps....?

thanks for your work!!!

All of this is completely unnecessary

Albums I like always gave me a weird visual theme. Super unknown made me see dead trees in the wind and the colour red, I'm not sure why but it's cool to me.

This was 🔥🔥🔥

Great video! I had no idea ozzy didn't like studio, his voice is so unique!

The finished product is one of the greatest records of all time in every respect and detail.

Ozzy doing the Masonic finger on the lips.

Good story. Thank you :)

It’s a great record, but I really dislike how he speaks about it as it was HIS thing, you ate there to serve the band not your frustrated art career

Michael Wagener uses pink noise fed to the amps to align phase

It's amazing to hear the guitar sounds, mesa boogie had a new line of amps that helped propel the guitar tones to a new level. Really cool to hear this time frame captured so well.

ive read somewhere that Ozzy did not enjoy working with him.......Great album though

You’re the producer. Tell him “hey we’re going to try to do it a different way. It’s going to be great, we’re just going to sing the track and let it rip.”

Sounds like they were assholes.

Isn’t it the Bowie mix of Raw Power where everything is “organized”?

Their best album, wore out that CD

Nice one

Ozzy does NOT have one of the greatest voices ever. But it is unique and fits his music perfectly.

Saw Black Sabbath on last tour. His voice was brutal. He was a great singer but really without the technology is career would have ended years ago. Still an amazing icon!

I think it is one of the greatest albums of all time, up there with Abbey Road and Led Zeppelin IV and (insert here)

This is the kind of producer Depeche mode needs. A band stuck in their own ways.

So cool hearing about how strong Chris’s voice was. Maybe I’m biased, because he’s my favorite singer of all time, but when I first saw him live in 2005 with Audioslave I was blown away by the power of his voice. I remember cracking up when he sang the first line from the first song, “Your Time Has Come.” Not even a high register or anything, but his voice felt like it was going THROUGH me. I’ve been blessed to have been able to see a lot of bands and singers live in my younger days - Halford, Dickinson, Anselmo, Ozzy. Nobody had the same effect that Chris had when I heard him sing.

Sad to say, but I think that prima donnas, no matter who they are, need to realize that they're only as good as the studio makes them.

A perfect album.

Hahaha!
