Thanks man! To be honest, I didn’t. Mostly edit the bass to the kick so that the low end is solid. When you have a solid low end it leaves some space for the timing of the higher pitched instruments. Hope that helps!
I just tripped across this while looking for layering tips as I build up my recording knowledge. Being a guitar player, this stuff sounds great... and I love how you layered everything. I'll definitely be watching more of your videos and subscribing.
I'm not really in country music, but video itself is amazing. Subscribed. Looks like I will be busy for some time watching all of your other videos on the channel.
Very very good! Thanks for the many great tips. I will be toying with them on a song of mine that definitely could use some of these techniques. Many Thanks!
Just came across this video... love it man. Great production. I'm just waiting for my Ganjo to arrive, so I'll be putting it to use. Love your style...bk 🙏👍😁
Great video, I love how you arranged and layered the guitar parts. I would love to see a video how you arranged the other parts (especially the vocals)!
Great video! I love your song and your music style! It 's very interesting to se you mixing. I try myself to use layering with my Nashville guitar, like you do with the banjo. I learn many thing with your video! I can wait for your next video! See you! Jean-marc, a french fan 👍🏻
Great video man. Current Recording Arts student at Full Sail, songwriter, country musician. This video helped me a ton to anticipate writing and recording things I compose going forward. Thank you so much.
Have to say I wasn't expecting much when this started. However, you blew me away! Your song is awesome and the breakdown of it is more awesome. A light bulb went off in my brain! Great presentation, especially when you point something out and then listen to it before and after. Great job!
This is fantastic! Exactly what I needed to see to take my recordings to the next level. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make that video on guitar editing! I'd love to see how you align the transients on all of those guitar parts. Would a program like vocalign work for something like that? Thanks!
Hi John, thanks so much for your reaction! Best way to get those lined up would be cutting, dragging and crossfading parts manually. No shortcuts for this part unfortunately… We have to put in the hours💪🏻
Glad I stumbled on this, really cool stuff! Just curious, what mic and placement was used on the mandolin? I just got one and I'm struggling to get a good sound.
@@museum1401 awesome thanks! I mostly use a small diaphragm mic aimed at the soundhole around 15cm away. I always seemed to enjoy the more full sound there more over micing the frets
@@nickjongejan1428 Thanks man, I was finding it a bit too spikey and percussive when I mic'd it like a guitar. I will give this a try. Do you have a fave SDC for this? I've tried a km184, c451, nt5, mk012 etc. and ended up using a 57 lol.. Maybe mic'ing the sound hole I can go back to a more detailed mic without it taking my head off 😆
@@museum1401 i think most will do! I ise austrian audio myself but i think it is more about the type of mic than the specific brand. So dynamic is more mid forward. SD nice topend and detailed transients. LD more round and warm lowend, but less detailed transients. Hope that helps!
Nick . Great video. Your acoustic guitar open strings sounds amazing (at 6:25). I have high end Martin and Guild d55 and I can't get that shiny crystal clear strumming. What do you use? I tried thin nylon pick and eq/compressor but still doesn't sound even close. Please advise. Thanks.
Thanks for the comment! Could be a lot of things, mic choice (for a bright sound would recommend small diaphragm), mic position (would start aiming straight at the 12th fret), room you are in (as dead as possible so you don’t have weird resonances) thin pick. New strings (i use 0.12 elixer phosphor bronze) and a lot of it is in the way you play (if i want to emphasize the brightness I try to aim for the thinner strings while strumming, also not strumming to hard works wonders). Hope that helps!
U Dutch? Great video, my biggest issue is recording my guitars and getting them to sound good. I use a Fender reverb deluxe with a sm57 and a Rhode nt1a mic but it sounds like shit. All my productions sounds weak because my guitars sound crap. Any tips on mics or maybe add some sort of pre amp? Any advice would be appreciated, my aim is to get a more traditional sounding country sound, cheers
Hi Jeroen, Yes I am:) one thing you could try is switch the condenser (which tends to sound a bit brittle) for a ribbon and blend that in with the 57. That should provide some more balls to the sound. Also playing around with some amp sims to shoot out vs your own amp might be cool. Michael Britt as a cool pack with stl tonehub and neural DSP has a cool toneking vst.
just stumbled into The Young River. YES, guitar editing!! PLEASE
That is awesome my man! Maybe sometime in the future i will pick that up!
maby more on vocal mixing? = )
Noted! :)
I really learned a lot from this as I am just starting to do recording
So awesome to hear don! Working on some future content so please let me know how I can help:)
Thanks for the tips man!! Sounds so good
@@JonTheBard anytime!🤟🏻
I'd love to see a video on guitar editing...particularly how you lined up the acoustics/mandolin/banjo
Thanks man! To be honest, I didn’t. Mostly edit the bass to the kick so that the low end is solid. When you have a solid low end it leaves some space for the timing of the higher pitched instruments. Hope that helps!
Such a level of quality music...
keep it up.
Thanks so much!!!
I learned a lot from this video thank you. My guitar always sounds thin. Now I understand why. Thanks a lot
That is awesome to hear!!

Appreciate the tips homie; video lesson was easy understanding and straight to the point. 👍🏾
Nice! Thanks 😊
wow the Nashville tuning puts an extra shine to the layer. This is my favourite track from TYR!! Beautiful layers, makes the whole song so huge!
🙌🙌🙌
Very very good! Thanks for the many great tips. I will be toying with them on a song of mine that definitely could use some of these techniques. Many Thanks!

This video is fantastic - sounds amazing!
Thank u so much, if there is anything you want me to cover, drop a comment:)
@@nickjongejan1428 Getting quiet parts of a song to sound the same volume as loud parts - compression? I'm a noob!😂
@@LEVIJmusic why should it be the same? Contrast is everything:)
All you're favorite Country hits on Y108.
Hahaha check
I was thinking you must have lakhs of subscribers until I saw your subs count. Way to go bro.. honestly, you deserve more.. keep up the great work!!

Are you available for guitar lessons in the Nashville area?
@@toddscot4988 i wish! Unfortunately I live in the Netherlands. But I am sure you have plenty talented guitarists who teach there!
Loved the video! What synth are you using? Would love to use this tone on my tracks.
Used a few omnisphere patches:)
What tunings are you using for the rhythm guitars?
Hey! Just e standard:) no weird stuff happening:)
Really good video
Thank you so much!!
Lekker hoor!!
🔥🔥🔥
Amazing snare sound man! Is that a sample or did you record a real drum set? Very nice video 🔥
Thanks dude! Combination of real drums and some samples:)
Are you in Nashville bro?
@@ryanw9307 i wish!!!!
Love Cubase users. The red clip means nothing in cubes except maybe sounds better.
Exactly😍
What are diamond chords?
Chords you only strum once and let ring. Great way to to smoothen things out👊🏻
What kind of drums are you using for the verses? 3:24
I think those are samples from ThatSound. With a filter on them;)
Why don't you make more videos?
Maybe in the future! For now the studio is slammed with cool projects. But if you have any questions, don’t hesitate!🙏🏻
Country?
Why are you using this ancient stone age version of Cubase?
What are diamond chords ?
Strumming a chord and let it ring out! ✨
