No worries at all Warren, and thanks for supplying us with a giant library of tracks to work on! 😀 Congrats on your book btw and I hope your trip to London went well. I can’t remember if you said you were going to be at Abbey Road or not, but if you did and there are vidoes coming I’ll be excited to see them 🙂
Fantastic ideas. Thanks for sharing. The only thing that I might add is to be careful EQing a parallel bus. I've found that it can often mess with the phase of the track. Nothing critical, just something to be aware of. The old mantra applies, "if it sounds good..."
Thanks!! Glad you liked it my friend. As for the correlation, since the rear bus is so low in the mix it has little to no affect on phase. Even with the correlation meter running I was hard pressed to notice any difference. That’s why I never even mentioned it. But you are 100% right though and one should be double checking phase relationships, especially when running an EQ this way or getting heavy handed with any stereo imaging plugins 🙂
A cool alternative to the Mike Shinoda trick you mention is M/S processing. Adding something a little extra to the sides when that hook drops is always awesome. The parallel 2 bus trick is cool for the mids, just be mindful of the phase..
You could be on to something. I've never really messed around with M/S (no real reason why) but I might have to give that a try and see what I can come up with =)
Thanks and glad you got something out of the video. Learning other engineers tricks is great and all, but I'd always recommend everyone find a way to make them their own =)
Thanks ever so much for sharing! I really appreciate it!

As long as you don't use high- or lowpass filters you're fine.

@@EverythingMusicRecording Its the secret sauce! Don't just limit yourself to EQ either, think outside the box ;)

just the video I was looking for, thanks man.
Not a problem my friend, glad the video was helpful for you =)
What do you mean by "Feeds" the "Rear Bus"? Are you directly routing to the Rear Bus or are you using "Sends"?
thank you! that was a great explanation! I totally appreciate it!
NICE!
