The hardest part about watching Pensado's Place is finishing an episode! I can't seem to finish in one sitting without running off and mixing because of the ideas you share. Thank you so much Dave, Herb and co.

It’s the third year of me watching this and understanding. Funny how with every passing year’s experience there is a better understanding to absorb for me personally. Now these techniques make more sense in terms of feel as opposed to just the technicalities of it. I am now getting more capable of getting the emotional impact of these reverb/ delay techniques. Thank you for such valuable information. Dave is a legend. Although I am a music producer, you have inspired me enough to look at my production in terms of the mixing result of it. Thank you truly.

One of the best Episodes Ever! I can be watching 2 days of ITL with Dave easily!!
grandee!
Thank you so much guys, it means so much to me personally to be able to share in your knowledge and philosophy of mixing and music in general. I hope to be able to pass on the love to others too.
Genius! So fun to watch Pensado on action.
'man this lady can sing' , I love how he really feels the music he mixes.
Hey i just wanted to say thank you so much for doing these Mr Pensado you are such a blessing and so humble, you are a true inspiration God Bless you !
That treated vocal sounded unbelievable, amazing, Dave is a true master!! Loved the sound of the Bricasti too!
I don’t know how amazing he is for sharing his knowledge. Thank you so much for teaching all these years.
Dave you are so awesome for sharing your knowledge with aspiring artists like me. Thank you sincerely.
Dave, I get inspired every time I watch your videos. Thank you for sharing your hard-earned skills, and for sharing your excitement about the artistry.
This video captured my attention intently. IMHO I’ve heard so many songs overuse reverb and delay. Dave knows where and how to set the vocal focus in relation to the song. I’ve repeatedly noticed how he often uses multiple plugins, yet each offering minor adjustments. All this makes me smile with him when he smiles at his own work saying, “That’s pretty good!” 😊
Hey Dave & Herb! Sometimes i come home from a long day at work and want to relax. But if i watch your show on my lunch break, I come home and make Music! Thanks for doing what you do!
I Love You Dude
Thank you! Great stuff. Love you Dave!
Ooh this was so good! Thanks Dave!
Jill Scott "relates ALOT to my sensibilities and my tastes!" What a privilege to be entrusted with her voice.
Much respect Big Pen! I clicked on the pre video ad to show some love! I haven't gone to the grocery store to buy some Tillamook medium cheddar cheese yet, because i'm going to watch the video first! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge!
Thank you Dave! You are such a great inspiration, so good in your craft, and so humble! You really help a lot!
That half an hour flew by... Love listening to this man, makes me feel like everything's gonna be a-o-kay
Please so more of these in depth tutorials! So useful! I´ll watch them any day and I´m sure 90 % of the guys here will! Thanks Dave =)
Thank you Dave for giving such a great starting point!
It's really impressive that the oldest people have the most technical skills in music production / mastering / EQing. Those people are the ones who are responsible for the godly sounding things you hear in the radio.
Just thank you dave 🙏
Such a sweet talk at the end. Thanks for all the knowledge sharing. Helped me pick up a lot!
Who gives DP a thumbs down? Seriously? You must be mega talented and earning shit loads of wonga. And even then I would have nothing but deep respect for this man. Good luck to you!
it is impossible not to listen to you but I will use the imagination greetings from Argentina
Great ITL, thanks for taking the time to go in depth Dave!
Wow what great insights on reverb. Thanks so much Dave! You’re the man!!!!!
Dave, this is really good information. So helpful to gain an understanding of how to use these tools to place things in the mix. I've literally watched this 5 times already. Every time, I pick up something new!
fabulous. lots of info and a lot to think about.
Thank you SO MUCH Dave! Very helpful tips for my new album. I was looking to tweak my vocal reverb and you hit the nail right on the head.
Love you man! Thanx for sharring so much with us ,your a god send,life saver.
These guys are Godsends!!
Thank you Mr. Pensado
I appreciate the knowledge, I never thought to put a gated reverb on a vocal.
That's great Dave, thanks for that.
Great storehouse of knowledge in these videos! Thanks guys.
Great video as always. Learning a lot from you Dave and friends!
-Kal M
You are the most awesome man ever.
AWESOME episode - I like the longer ITL more info ....thanks
i hope these in depth videos become more of a regular thing. awesome stuff. i never thought of using a gated reverb and a chamber on the same vocal. i'll try it out
dont be afraid to add effects to your effects!
great episode! thank you! love the longer in-depth ITL
Great insights Dave! The idea of choosing a space because of its relevance to the music, like big and small venue, was very inspiring for me, sometimes one loses perspective and just starts adding fx for no reason XD
Also the drum samples tutorial is pure gold!
GREAT ITL! Really good episode!!! THX
Great stuff Dave! Thanks
Great to have these guys giving back to the community.. Also check out Michael White (former lecturer at SAE (9 yrs)) his youtube vids are masterclasses.. Big up Mr Pensado
Really helpful! Vocal spaces and reverbs can be pretty difficult sometimes... ;)
As an artist it's hard to know when you are done polishing your creation. When do you have the right vocal take? When are you done with the production and arrangement? When are you done mixing? When in reality there's ALWAYS room for improvement. Answer: 15:35
"they make about a million plugins and they are about a nickel a piece" 🤣🤣 Dave is so funny
AWESOME!!! Thank you! Great stuff Thanks Dave!
I learn alot from you guys! Respect.
Hey man,good to see ya again...and that's a nice new look for ya.
Dig the hair cut too...So, let's get to work...
Thanks for being awesome Dave. I think I'm gonna buy the BIG SKY REVERB.
Thank you Dave!
the master at work
Dude that was really informative as I'm a musician and learning Logic, plug ins and lots other recording techniques and tools. I have two Octavias 300's and set them up to my mixer and into an interface and whoa what a sound but knew there's waaaay more to learn. Thanks.
When you said that line about thinking it was a hallway but it's a concert hall I almost threw my computer out the window - I just learned that when you said it
Great video Dave. Keep up the good work!
i can't thank you enough for this.
Wow, learned a ton thanks!!!
Really good episode!!!
great episode! thx
LEGEND
Thanks dave
fantastic
Thank you Dave, you are a legend!!! Could you please make one on how to mix vocal overdubs? I would be forever grateful!
LOL! I catch myself trying to click and drag things on the screen while I'm watching these vids. I totally just did it @15:53 so I could see the complete plug and settings.
Believe it or not I've never used the C1. I'll have to check it out. I usually use the Rcomp....L2...1176....UAD Tubetechs...have recently looked at the C4. But my recent fave to manhandle unwildly sounds is the DBX160. Kind of a "run of the mill" compressor with not a ton of color that can really put things in line. Sounds like live sound kinda thing. Not real musical but totally has it's place.
I've heard people say they can make a distressor sound like anything they want though so that's also on my list to check out. I'm all in the box at this point so its plugs galore.
By the way...really dig the Klanghelm Mjuc you recommended. Great plug and it's CHEAP. Love cranking the "drive" knob on that baby...but.....you have to use it with something else to really dial things in. But the sound is there for sure. Anyway..love your vids Dave. The fact that this is 5 years old and I'm still here watching says something.
Awesome ITL! Really helpful video! :)
wish i had Dave as a professor back in college.
This is really good and covers some interesting principles. Please can you look into remembering to look into doing an episode on 'Chorus' and vocals? Or recording gain structure?
Jill sounds SO GOOD!! what is the song?
super tutorial ...thanks
whats the reverb hes using on his desk ?
12:40 "If i say sometimes one more time....." 2 seconds later "He likes to do that sometimes" xD
NICE Thanks Man Dave are you using the New Mac Pro your using a lot of Plugins on one Vocal that is a lot of processing going on i am on a older Mac Pro i don't think i can get away with using that many plugins ( YOU SHOULD DO A ITL ON YOU COMPUTER AND PROCESSING NEEDED AND STUFF LIKE THAT THAT WOULD BE COOL )
frank rogers You shouldn't have too much of a problem with that amount of processing on a single vocal if you increase your playback engine buffer to 1024 samples while mixing. Dave also uses UAD plugins, which utilizes an external DSP. Even with that much info, I'd love to see how much external DSP he uses.
frank rogers I try to run the buffer as high as possible when bouncing online, as this tends to reduce the chance of error during bounce. Offline bounce doesn't care about the buffer setting, because it renders the audio only as fast as your system will allow. In fact, the only time I run a low buffer is during tracking. It's only then that you can hear any latency, because you have a point of reference to work from (the sound of the instrument you are recording vs. the sound coming out of your speakers).
You can watch the video at 1.25 speed.
XD
1.75
i was confused why the reverb sounds funny than i realized i read your comment and speed up the video.I have to watch it again in normal speed now.so Screw u
Forever watching pensados place and trying to take some tips and use them in ableton.
39:37 That's what mixing is all about: feel and emotion
lookin good dave. nice hair cut
JUST LISTEN...
BEFORE: 14:42 AFTER 37:56 (Almost) OR 39:28 (FINAL with SLAP and INSTRUMENTS)
awesome thanks
You're welcome!
awesome
After this lesson I know how to use predelay as musician. Thanks Dave!)
vaya oidos tienes . eres el mejor
Great Episode!
Really helpful tips in how to treat vocals, thanks Dave!
im lovin your videos, im so glad i cam across them. Im wondering if delays and verbs on vocals "should" be mono or stereo? Thanks!
timeless information dude...
This is a great video tutorial. Very insightful.
Any examples of the gated trick at 44:00?
dave heres a good question? The vocal lick in this song is great but reminds me of a part from a movie soundtrack? Do you know what that movie is? Its killing me to remember this movie?
Love your channel !!! Great!!! Keep it coming!!!
So you are saying to add multiple reverbs to a vocal through different aux tracks ?
where he said that? i want to see it
Would like to see your reverb settings,. preferably a plugin as I don't have the mighty Bricasti.
At 15:59, when you bring up the sidechain, are you just using that as a straight EQ, or is that frequency being keyed by something?
Greaaaaaaat Episode. Thanks a lot! Reaaaaally interesting. Whats the name of the Song?
Herbs shirt is fire
Hey guys question! I know Dave goes in and out of Protools for some parts of his mixing, the 500 series or outboard effects... what converters does Dave have there at his spot? Is he just using Avid?
i saw when using Maxx Bass , you put the original bass below 0 its mean theres natural bass you put out and add some maxx bass wich is more like a loundness that goes top frequency, it reshape the tone... let me confirm with you Dave :) if im right
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 14:45 Dave's face!!!!!! FUNNYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!! LOOOOOL
I get goosebumps every time i ears jewels voice
