Took me a minute to figure out what you meant by "Option + Command" at 2:57. It was "Ctrl + Alt" on my keyboard lol. But this is an amazing video! Definitely something I needed to see. Thank you very much!! -Sean
Hi Sean! Haha, I'm glad to hear you figured it out. It might be helpful to start mentioning the Windows shortcuts. That's a good point you brought up. Thanks for mentioning it. I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed the video!
I also use Neural plugins , I am using a uad appollo interface and the recommended settings for neural dsp is to set the hi-z input gain to zero on the appollo. Now everytime I do this my audio waves are so small it's actually too small to edit, so do you set your pretty hot? How do you go about this. Do I need to crank it and go against that advice? Thanks man that was really fun to watch. I have been looking forever for a video like this.
Hi! I’m glad the video was helpful! To be honest, I’ve never increased the input gain on the HI-Z input, but you could try it and see how your plugins react on the input metering. What I usually do is use the ‘Data Zoom’ feature in Studio One to make the audio parts more visible for editing, and you can always dial it back afterward.
Hey man, loved the video but I’m having some trouble getting some true professional sound on Presonus, after I record and add plugins to it it still sounds so fuzzy and not crisp how an album would sound, is this because I need the soothe plugin? Or do I need to add a bus for each guitar, I’ve been playing 15 years and I’ve had Presonus for 3 years but for some reason I can’t get that crisp crisp tone! Thank you man! Love the info
Hey Devin! I'd love to listen to your track. Feel free to reach out to me at bobvaromusic@gmail.com, and I'll give it a listen. Perhaps I can offer some assistance! Glad to hear you enjoyed the video!
Lower the gain of your instrument channel (of your audio interface) to 0 and then start recording. If you need more info about proper gain staging your audio interface before recording DI, do some research. ;)
When you record your electric guitar, do you record a dry recording or wet recording, or do you do both? I know some mixing and mastering producers want to have both recordings. If you do a dry recording, can you add the amp plug-in into each channel after you have recorded it? Also when you record the electric guitar, at what volume level do you put your volume on your guitar or do you just use the volume level on the audio interface or do you use both volumes? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks for making such a great video.
Sure thing! I'm glad to assist with your questions. Firstly, I recommend recording a DI track through a plugin. This approach allows you to make adjustments to the sound later on. If you're confident about the sound and want to save some CPU power or maintain focus during the mixing process, you can bounce the track in place and disable the other channel with the DI track and plugin. You have the flexibility to use any amp plugin on any DI track at any time, which is beneficial for re-amping and experimentation. When recording your guitar, ensure that the volume is fully open and doesn't clip on your interface. For this purpose, using the HI-Z input is advisable. I hope this information proves helpful, my friend!
Thank you so much for the video. I am new to this and helps me a lot your tutorial I have Quad Cortex and I want to ask you what version of Studio one you use? I have Studio one 5 Artist And also why is better to record to separate tracks for the rythm in your case and why not record the rythm part stereo? Thank you🤘
I use Studio One 6! The latest version. You can send two mono guitars to the same plug-in, all you have to do is pan one guitar to the left and the other to the right and enable 'stereo' in the Neural DSP plug-in! And if you have two different recordings, one to the left and the other to the right, you get a fuller sound and better stereo separation instead of using something like the Microshift from SoundToys to make one guitar wider. 🙏🏻 Hope this helps!
Hey man, nice video! Do you have a multi license for neural dsp plugins for activating in a few machines? I really need them, but can't buy cuz I'm in fucking Russia right now.
This is awesome, it’s been my dream to put out an album of my fav songs from what I’ve written over the years before I start graduate school. This video has sm good advice/reminders, thank you! PS - maybe I missed it if u mentioned it in the video but what did u do for drums on this track? They sound really great
That is amazing! I'm glad to hear the video was helpful! 😃 I use Superior Drummer for all my drums. 🙏🏻 If you ever need any help, don't hesitate to email me at bobvaromusic@gmail.com or get in touch through my website bobvaro.com
@@bobvaro thank you so much for replying, music was pushed to the side for the past few months but ig I’ll have to watch the video again and look up those drums!
@metalhackysack5797 so, I’ve been recording for years, most of the time just one of, or some combination of the following: chord progressions, riffs, melodies, etc over a looped drum pattern, on any given project (for the past year I’d say I’ve been tryna improve the drum sections of my music) and usually I don’t finish developing the song… but over time I slowly but surely add more to them lol sometimes I actually have the whole thing written but keep re tracking things/changing stuff etc it’s just that I don’t have a lot of time to dedicate to music sadly
@metalhackysack5797 I appreciate that offer, but music for me has always been a very personal avenue of expression and I like creating by figuring things out for myself… it’s just a hobby for me, really
Never heard of this soothe plugin, now i love it. Nice video btw.
Hi Matheus, yes, Soothe2 is a really good plugin. Glad to hear you like the video. 😃

I use Gojira too. Cool...
One of my favorites! What do you think of the plugin? 😎
