I realize on the parallel “squisher I quoted attack and release speeds backwards. For the record, FAST release is the key element. I start with one of the slower attack speeds and adjust to shape/control the transient just right. Sorry for the speaking error gang
Thanks Joe, really enjoyed the video. RED Rock Sound do an awesome API 550B plug-in. A lesser known developer but they put out consistently good emulations
I was adjusting a plugin limiter (and saturator) earlier today and for whatever reason, in experimenting with different oversampling options realized the highest isn't always best to my ears. I actually turned it off altogether on the latter in processing a kick drum. I've learned a bit about aliasing and all that so can't truly explain my rationale. Hearing things in context, that is, in the mix is really important.
Often I can’t hear the difference in context either. Or even in solo. We probably get more hung up than we should on certain technical specs than we need to. Thanks for watching and commenting Andrew.
Thanks for going into the nuances of the SSL Saturation. I started using it on my drums and it really gives them a punch. Love the channel and all your recommendations!
'Playing' the SSL channel strip almost like an instrument, so impressive. So fast, so intuitive, so quick to achieve results, it is obvious that you know that console like it's your second nature. Amazing.
I could listen and watch Joe for hours !!!!! I learn so much out from him, his concept and mindset about mixing are priceless. It would have been great to see how he deals with those nasty resonances (specially on that snare !!!). Regards.
Dude, I JUST started using the Shadow Hills on my drum buss, and wowsers- yes - it really does what you said it does! My other regular go-to's on the drum buss are the old ToneBusters RealBuss, the Ignite Amps PTQe-X eq (I like it better than my Waves Pultec) and the StillWell Event Horizon limiter/clipper. Only on super-heavy stuff do I use a saturator - maybe an Audio-Assault Headcrusher. Gotta be careful there - it doesn't do subtle.
@@InTheMixJoeCarrell - You're very welcome. I have a project that is at that critical final stage of mixing (12 songs) and this so-called mastering compressor is helping me get that final 2-3% drum *pop* in the mix without overbearing the mix. There are loads of BGV's (our congregation double-tracked), and plenty of B3 gluing everything together, so it's already pretty thick. Using the "Discrete Iron" preset to begin. Love it. Been doing this full-time since 1997, and even at 62 we "can be taught"! Thanks for this.
I love the Kazrog True Iron or I use Acustica Audio Gold Pre then Shadow Hills then Acustica Pink maybe finish with IK Multimedia Tape or Waves Kramer Tape. So many awesome options. Rock on Joe🤘
PLAP'ers - almost all videos really revolve around rock music. Any chance Joe or others would do a look at plugins in other genres? Like a Jazz kit or other popular music? I know the tips translate but many videos sound like how to beef things up for rock recordings.
Joe you do your videos so well, I'm an attentive viewer and you learn so much from it, thank you very much for your work and your knowledge...... i stay tuned !!
🤩 The TE-100 recreates this piece of German sound history with impeccable realism, right down to the buttons on the interface and the tube filter bypass.
Thanks Joe, there's so many different flavors and choices to make sometimes and you shed alot of light on that, in this video. The how, when and why. Your a legend. Big thanks to the PLAP team.
Great Video! Very helpful. Made me realize that I could simplify my drumbus and overall plugin use on individual tracks and still get a much better and punchier sound.
I produce using a lot of drum breaks, sampled drum fills, with stomps, claps, and tambs. I'd love to see how Joe approaches treating that sound. I may just have to drive to Nashville and figure out.
@InTheMixJoeCarrell - Great video Joe!!! I love how you demonstrated the drum processing you use. The drums really sound good. Everyone knows that a great drum sound starts from recording great sounding drums with great mics and great mic preamps. You really didn't say anything in the video about how the drums were recorded and I'd really like to know, assuming you remember, what you did when recording these drums? Did you EQ or compress on the way in? I'm a drummer for many more years than I want to admit and want to get the best recorded sound I can!!! I'm guessing that recording process could be a whole video itself. Thanks for what you do for PLAP and looking forward to future videos!!! Bless you Joe and hope you had a great B-Day!!! 😎🎶
Thank you Tom!! It was quite a few years ago but likely some eq on the kick and toms. Also probably a little top on the snare. Lite compression on the snare top and bottom, kick, and heavier on the rooms. That was likely all.
@@InTheMixJoeCarrell Thanks Joe, that helps. I know from watching other videos of engineers and they tend to do some EQ and compression on the way in which is something I haven't been doing. Time for more experimenting to get the sound I'm hearing in my head and get that sound into my mixes. Thanks!!!
Mind-blowingly good, Joe! I love the console strips even if I don't fully understand them. But I understand them quite a bit more after watching this. Thanks!
Super cool! I must be doing something right, cause I felt like I was watching Joe describe my drum workflow almost exactly! Question: Why do many mixers put their SD sample track as a separate track? I use my Trigger plugin on the SD track and use/automate the mix knob in Trigger. In the past, when I have made my trigger a separate track, I had to group it to the SD track for volume adjust, seems like more hassle?
I personally always want mine printed as a separate track. It will live with the project forever and never be tied to a sample that isn’t part of that session. Plus, typically I will EQ it or compress it or send it to parallel treatments differently than I do the primary drum.
Always song dependent. Matching the snare to the song is a big deal to me. This one was being layered with loopy elements and hand claps. Worked great as a finished package. Thanks for watching Norman.
If staying in the box, for drums I usually reach for API channel strips and bus them down to the API master bus both by brainworks or the 1176 by UAD. The SSL Bus Compressor Native lives on my master bus until I purchase the hardware 😅. I have the SSL Native Channel strip and will have to give it a spin on drums. I have yet to wrap my head around the shadow hills. I have it, but got lost as it is not laid out intuitively. Luckily it was free because of my coupons with Brainworks.
Some good choices there! On the shadow hills, try mentally breaking it down into an LA2a on top, an SSL buss compressor in the middle, and a few transformer output options on the bottom. It’s worth wading through the cluster of knobs 😂 Best wishes and thanks for watching
@@InTheMixJoeCarrell Aye thanks a lot I really appreciate it! This video was very helpful as I took some notes... Regarding the Shadow Hills ahhhhh now that makes sense to me. Thank you so much for breaking it down in those terms. Now that is something I can understand and will get in there and start turning some dials 😊
Thank you Sonny!! Just had a cupcake with a candle 🎂 haha. I sometimes really exaggerate the ring to make it feel aggressive and angry. And lengthen the sustain. But other songs or genres it does need to be tamed. I think either way can be proper. Always a judgement call.
Was that low ringing driving anyone else crazy? I could tell the overall drum tone was improving, but all I could focus on was that G3 ringing out. I'm sure that's something that could be notched out, so I wish it had been for the purposes of this demo even if it sounded fine in the context of a song.
Great Video Thank You So Much.I would love to Hear Joe's thoughts on Paul Thirds opinion regarding the Kit Plugins.... Paul was not too kind to say the least. Sounded great to me with what Joe was doing with the BB73
I’m unfamiliar with the video you mention, but I’ve definitely been enjoying what I can only describe as a realistic “analog” sound from them. Especially the 73 and A5 (API). Seems to hit a new level of analog punch from software. But UA and Plug-in Alliance also version of both that I like too. So by all means, use whichever you have. Thank you for watching Mark!
Joe, how many times per week do you exercise at home or at gym??? Amazingly looking sound engineer is a key to gain attention to our inudstry. Usually when it comes up to “sound engineer” it’s not greatly lookin guys… (i’m not gay and not hitting on you) just complimenting.
Haha. Thank you sir. It always differs depending on my workload, but I definitely like to get in there a couple times a week. It’s key to my mental focus to handle the long days and workloads. Honestly think it’s just as good, if not better, for my brain than it is anything.
This was fire! 😀🔥 More of this would be highly appreciated 👌🏻👌🏻 Question; does the “humming tale” on the snare not bother you? Like, it will not be audible in the mix?
Thank you! More is on the way 🎉 The resonance would really be song dependent. On this song on I remember well that we were playing along to some loop bits with a variety of backbeat elements. So everyone felt like we needed that rain for a sense of aggression and also separation. In the mix, it actually worked great. I’m pretty big on snare drum tuning matching this song. Check it out, Caleb Lovely “Smile”. Thanks again
I guess the song didn't change key. That could get quite unpleasant otherwise. Since I never write a song that doesn't change key, I couldn't ever leave a snare humming like this. Drum tuning is fairly irrelevant for me because I use so many non-diatonic chords.
@@InTheMixJoeCarrell I just went to listen to the song, and it's tight. There is no resonant tail and I'm purposefully listening for it. Are you certain you kept it? Cheers.
The kit plugins neve looks nice, they also have a new API. They are a very shady company though- and though I purchased the earlier neve eq they made (which is very good) I cant bring myself to buy more of their products. Great tips, lovely video. Loving your drum pack!
Especially because each time they boost their value. BB $99 n73 $150 API $200. So the API is double the value of the BB that put them on the map?! No… it just makes it so subscribing to a handful of plugins seems more viable when the time comes.
@@jorykevinberger7047 correct. Also, the whole conundrum with the BB EQ they “modeled”. Paul Third (correctly) roasted them on that. Literally a straight-up 20 year old textbook EQ algorithm with a fancy GUI. They even did a shootout with a real unit and LPFed the source at like 10kHz or something the hide the horrible cramping (I may have the exact specifics wrong, but you can check out the Paul Third videos for exact details).
That was a great video! Although I must say that I got very distracted by the ringing of the snare when compressed. Maybe it's a tom ringing with the snare hits, but that tone got very distracting.
Amazing video! Thanks so much. I do have a question.. I see that the drums and parallel comp are being sent to your "Buss DnB." Would that be for just the drums here? Or would you also send bass (bass guitar, bass synths) through that as well? Have seen that before and would just love to know. Thanks again!
There's a snare resonance (it's the snare right?) that never got addressed. Are we just to assume that that got taken care of eventually? It stayed there through the entire video.
I thought the fastest attack on an 1176 was 7? I seem to remember it being counter-intuitive isn't it? I think the 1176 is fairly unique in this regard. Is it different on the BF76?
Been working through this video today on my drums…. The neve on my snare in particular is a revelation! Can anyone suggest an alternative to the Lindell on the drum bus? I can’t buy any more plug ins!!!
The snare drum, I think. It was driving me crazy. It's okay for drums to have a distinct note, but that was way too loud. I would have notched some of it out.
I stopped using the SSL plugins. To my ears it felt like they were simulating the “SSL punch” by maybe using transient shaping? I have zero evidence of this, I want to be careful to say - but - what is an EQ doing giving punch to a sound??? I want an EQ, not more attack every time I use a plug. As always, YMMV. Thanks for the great video!
Thank you James. When I say analog “punch” I’m more referring to when adding high mid frequency or boosting substantially through the eq (and it’s active electronic circuitry) it hits harder after processing. A very different thing than a digital signal boost without hitting either a real or virtual analog circuit. It’s very hard to put into words, but API and SSL are two of the very best for this. Which is why they became THE sound of modern aggressive music whereas other circuits and digital software can sound “polite” or soft. Which is also valuable. Again very hard to put into words. But I use various tools to shape the end result. Am I trying to push the listener back in their chair with power? Am I Trying to pull them towards the speakers with warm round edges? It’s a huge part of the craft to me
I find that sometimes, after dialling in a great setting in the moment, if I reopen the session next day etc even though it's the same setting i.e. gating settings , it reacts differently ,, which is making me think I should capture each sound as I go but that could be a massive pain in the ass. I was using nuendo and the ssl channel strip 2 plug UC1. Im thinking maybe it could be the daw. For sure the other day I was on some percussion and had dialled in amazing gate sound but reopened the session and it was 'spitting' not how it was on the original day; I believe that its important to 'capture' the magic, on time based stuff, like gated percussions, and, the first vocal reverb automated ride and delay etc. But even though that is my observation, Im not going to lol because that would be a pain in the ass! I might however at the end of a long mixing session bounce down all files though because I SWEAR TO YOU it sound different the next day lol.
Now the question becomes is it the plugins per se or the awesome EQ moves that Warren and others of his calibre have taught as I suspect the final product would sound almost as good on stock plugins although I would rather stub my toe than stay with stock lololol
I don't know about you guys, but to me, I hear the unpleasant snare frequency around 200-230 Hz that keeps bothering me all the time! Correct me if I am wrong please!
It’s a actually set correct. You missed the correction above. I just said release instead of Attack and vice versa and didn’t catch it. It happens. But the settings are right and feel free to grab them.
@@InTheMixJoeCarrell You're right, I misssed the correction. My bad. I'm curious, would you fix later those snare rings for example, or would you keep the character?

It’s great🎉
The focusrite console by plugin alliance is so accurate and "Neve" clean that i prefere it above any SSL console (clone)

That's the best Warren impression ever! Nice video
Great stuff -- you da man Joe - thanks!
Thank you Billy!
This is amazing. Thank you!
Thank you for watching and commenting!
The kit plugins neve looks nice, they also have a new API. They are a very shady company though- and though I purchased the earlier neve eq they made (which is very good) I cant bring myself to buy more of their products. Great tips, lovely video. Loving your drum pack!
Thank you!! Have a great week
Especially because each time they boost their value. BB $99 n73 $150 API $200.
So the API is double the value of the BB that put them on the map?! No… it just makes it so subscribing to a handful of plugins seems more viable when the time comes.
@@jorykevinberger7047 correct. Also, the whole conundrum with the BB EQ they “modeled”. Paul Third (correctly) roasted them on that. Literally a straight-up 20 year old textbook EQ algorithm with a fancy GUI. They even did a shootout with a real unit and LPFed the source at like 10kHz or something the hide the horrible cramping (I may have the exact specifics wrong, but you can check out the Paul Third videos for exact details).
Great ep Joe
Thank you Rick👊🏼👊🏼✌🏼✌🏼
Slate FG-X has the transient-pop-out-knob
It sure does. I like using that plug-in as the last buss limiter on the master when sending out for client approval. It’s a good one.
Awesome vid!!!
Thanks ever so much
Thank you John!!!
Been saying for ages the SSL X-saturator is the best saturation plugin around , maybe now people will believe me
It’s a monster!!!! Thanks for watching Clinton.
Those snare samples that are loaded into trigger sound great. Are those Joe's personal samples or commercial samples?
Thank you! Those are mine BUT they are available at Drum Sample Shop 🎉
@@InTheMixJoeCarrell great. Thanks for the reply Joe. Appreciate it. Cheers.
I like this guy. Great stuffs 💯
Thank you Joel!
Thanks Joel!
That was a great video! Although I must say that I got very distracted by the ringing of the snare when compressed. Maybe it's a tom ringing with the snare hits, but that tone got very distracting.
Thank you for watching 👊🏼
Amazing video! Thanks so much. I do have a question.. I see that the drums and parallel comp are being sent to your "Buss DnB." Would that be for just the drums here? Or would you also send bass (bass guitar, bass synths) through that as well? Have seen that before and would just love to know. Thanks again!
Great question! The bass does indeed get sent to this subgroup with the drums and percussion. So it’s all moving together with the compressor
@@InTheMixJoeCarrell Thanks for answering! Will definitely try this on future mixes!
Absolutely amazing video! Thank you for this.
Thank you for watching!
Great as always Joe!🤘
Thank you friend. Have a good week 🎉
How about all the hardware in the background , is that for tracking or do you use some in a hybrid mixing setup?
im curious where the samples you use in trigger come from...or are they samples you made sir ??
Very nice! Also nice sounding samples in the end, are they commercial or private ones?
You can buy his sample pack
There's a snare resonance (it's the snare right?) that never got addressed. Are we just to assume that that got taken care of eventually? It stayed there through the entire video.
Good Job
Thank you!
Love you Joe!
Thank you Rich! Very appreciated. Love you and the PLAP family as well. Such a great community Warren has assembled.
I thought the fastest attack on an 1176 was 7? I seem to remember it being counter-intuitive isn't it? I think the 1176 is fairly unique in this regard. Is it different on the BF76?
You're right. Joe made an earlier comment correcting what he said before the video was released :)
You’re absolutely right. I also have a knack for saying hi pass or Lo pass backwards. Stay tuned for more speaking errors 😂😂😂 thank you for watching!!
again.. valuable content! awesome!
It's a lot easier to.mix when the recording is eqd and compressed on the recording for sure
Like that shirt - do they do one without a chest pocket?
Haha. I have no idea. But thank you and thank you for watching 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Great tips. I wish sample replacement would stop. Its like in modern stop motion when they use vfx to smooth out the artifacts. Imo.
Been working through this video today on my drums…. The neve on my snare in particular is a revelation! Can anyone suggest an alternative to the Lindell on the drum bus? I can’t buy any more plug ins!!!
Can I give a 2 Tumbs Up ... Thanks Joe, Great suff
I love how Joe sounds like Ted Lasso
I don’t know who that is but I hope he has a nice voice. 😂 thank you for watching Michael
It's a good tv show.
Thank you by the way, I learned something
where is that ringing (open G) coming from when you play the track?
The snare drum, I think. It was driving me crazy. It's okay for drums to have a distinct note, but that was way too loud. I would have notched some of it out.
great, but I wish you'd notched out a lil' bit of that 200 ring on the snare.. got reeeally annoying. ;D
I stopped using the SSL plugins. To my ears it felt like they were simulating the “SSL punch” by maybe using transient shaping? I have zero evidence of this, I want to be careful to say - but - what is an EQ doing giving punch to a sound??? I want an EQ, not more attack every time I use a plug. As always, YMMV. Thanks for the great video!
Thank you James. When I say analog “punch” I’m more referring to when adding high mid frequency or boosting substantially through the eq (and it’s active electronic circuitry) it hits harder after processing. A very different thing than a digital signal boost without hitting either a real or virtual analog circuit. It’s very hard to put into words, but API and SSL are two of the very best for this. Which is why they became THE sound of modern aggressive music whereas other circuits and digital software can sound “polite” or soft. Which is also valuable. Again very hard to put into words. But I use various tools to shape the end result. Am I trying to push the listener back in their chair with power? Am I Trying to pull them towards the speakers with warm round edges? It’s a huge part of the craft to me
SSL all the way, just works every time.
Anyone else hearing a ring of about 190hz in some of those drum tracks? Seems like the parallel comp is really bringing it out.
I find that sometimes, after dialling in a great setting in the moment, if I reopen the session next day etc even though it's the same setting i.e. gating settings , it reacts differently ,, which is making me think I should capture each sound as I go but that could be a massive pain in the ass. I was using nuendo and the ssl channel strip 2 plug UC1. Im thinking maybe it could be the daw. For sure the other day I was on some percussion and had dialled in amazing gate sound but reopened the session and it was 'spitting' not how it was on the original day; I believe that its important to 'capture' the magic, on time based stuff, like gated percussions, and, the first vocal reverb automated ride and delay etc. But even though that is my observation, Im not going to lol because that would be a pain in the ass! I might however at the end of a long mixing session bounce down all files though because I SWEAR TO YOU it sound different the next day lol.
great video Joe :)
Joe (and warren),, that was amazingly insightful. Great!
Joe man, those plugins sound amazing!!! That api kit plug after the ssl is amazing! - thanks
Thank you for watching Chris. Have a great week 🎉
27:50 He's saying about fast attack and slow release, but on the 76 it's exactly the opposite. Am I missing smth?
can I get that NEVE 1073 plugin without going through UAD Apollo ?
Sweetwater has 7 top channel strip plug-ins for *49.00*
*2500* *DOLLARS* *WORTH* *FOR* *49.00*
*You* *Get:*
*1.* - *AMEK* *9099* - $449.00
*2.* - *AMEK* *200* - 399.00
*3.* - *SSL* *4000E* - 349.00
*4.* - *Focusrite* *SC* - 349.00
*5.* - *Console* *N* - 299.00
*6.* - *SSL* *4000G* - 349.00
*7.* - *SSL* *9000* - 349.00
Now the question becomes is it the plugins per se or the awesome EQ moves that Warren and others of his calibre have taught as I suspect the final product would sound almost as good on stock plugins although I would rather stub my toe than stay with stock lololol
I don't know about you guys, but to me, I hear the unpleasant snare frequency around 200-230 Hz that keeps bothering me all the time! Correct me if I am wrong please!
Please where i can get tjat samples for trigger 2?
Those few examples you heard are from Drum Sample Shop. That’s actually my own signature sample pack. Thank you for watching!
🙌🏼 SSL 😍
Marvellous!
L-O-V-E SSL 🔥🔥
marvelous
Thanks ever so much
Thank you for watching!
Great video :-)
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you sir !
I just LOVE to see the PROs get the attack and release of an 1176 wrong. The fast attack is 7, Joe 😅
Peace and love to everyone
It’s a actually set correct. You missed the correction above. I just said release instead of Attack and vice versa and didn’t catch it. It happens. But the settings are right and feel free to grab them.
Joe made an earlier correction before the video was released.
@@InTheMixJoeCarrell You're right, I misssed the correction. My bad.
I'm curious, would you fix later those snare rings for example, or would you keep the character?
@@djcata7474 it’ very song dependent. Sometimes I really like a snare with a lot of resonance and sustain. Other times it’s in the way.
