  • Showcasing a bit of the "Rupert Neve Portico 2 - MBP". A very new addition to LabRoad, still getting used to what all these buttons do!!! But it really does sound absolutely fantastic on every bit of audio that runs through it. Even just not having anything turned on but having the sound run through it makes a difference!

    Hello, i am appreciating your effort, but honestly the way how you are setting this thing up is so amateurish.. you tweak att/rel before ratio and threshold, really? You did not use hipass detector filter for which this type of music is screaming for, not trying FF/FB modes, saturation only on highest level, stereo EQ which si morelikely made for corrections just pressed randomly to stop benefit from whole M/S spread, which is obviously great on this unit..pls do it next time professionaly, this is embarassing for somebody with "mastering" word in his name. I don´t mean this post as a hate, but morelikely advice to not miss so many things on such a great piece of gear.

      @labroadmastering  3 года назад +1

      Thanks 🙏 pleasure to record and hold the line while I find the time to do more videos. At this point I’m without a AD converter. I’m using the Apollo Twin X Quad audio interface right now. It seems to work ok. I have read about the converters though. Maybe it would do the hardware more justice, not sure.

      Yeah excellent results tbh. Its so transparent, silk red is very nice too. It can keep everything really up and pumping in the mix and takes a lot for things to sound distorted. No complaints whatsoever here. Thanks for checking out the video. 👌

    in mid side mode are those silks independent or linked so if you use left comp as mid can you use red silk on it and right comp for sides use blue silk?

    I mate, nice vids.. Sounds awesome. The pumping os so "elasticy" its cool!
    Do you have idea on how to integrate the unit into a ITB mastering environment? Should the unit be the last thing before the final limiter? I guess so. Thanks in advance may you be blessed. Amen

    • @labroadmastering
      @labroadmastering  3 года назад

      Thanks for kind words! Yes the way I have it at the moment is mostly ITB but I have the machine in an active state all the time and bypass the things that I don’t want directly on the unit itself. There’s compressor and limiter and it’s literally all down to what sounds good and levels you’d think you’d need for the specific song you’re working on. From a hardware (where do the leads go perspective) i have it setup in Cubase as my output routed to Line3/4 of the inputs of the Apollo Twin X Quad. It took me a bit to setup and got there in the end! Happy to do another video on this setup too. Thanks again!

    Thank you for the demo. How did you connect the Portico to to the Apollo Twin please?

    • @labroadmastering
      @labroadmastering  3 года назад

      @motionPush
      In short,
      Connections :
      Connect outputs 3-4 of Apollo to inputs on MBP ( TRS to XLR Male)
      Connect outputs of MBP to LINE inputs on Apollo so XLR Female to TRS inputs on Apollo
      Make sure the UA Apollo control panel has inputs 1-2 set to LINE. If there’s a choice, use +4dB ( not -10dB)
      Cubase/DAW (I use Cubase).
      1. Select outputs 3-4 for the stereo track you want to compress.
      2. Make a new stereo track to record onto. Select inputs 1-2 as the Input source
      3. Select outputs 1-2 to monitor /hear what you’re compressing. You may need to turn Monitoring on for the track.
      4. when happy with the settings, record onto that track.

    Do you use that for mastering or just the mix bus?

    • @labroadmastering

      I’m using this and the Manley Passive Mastering EQ together, mostly always on 24/7, moderate settings initially. I’ll work on a track for the first 10 minutes, if it sounds like there’s something there I’ll enhance the sound further on the hardware.

      @@preciseaudioblog There’s for an against for each but the way I’m using it is having EQ before it hits the compressor. They’re very nice sounding units and sometimes I will leave the Manley deactivated until the end but will have the RND on. I don’t go by any formulas or whatnot, just whatever sounds good really. I’m going to do a video soon on the Manley also.

    When You Balanced The Volumes, There Wasn’t Much Difference Anymore. This Is Nothing More Than Better Plugins.

    • @labroadmastering
      @labroadmastering  2 года назад

      Plugins are amazing, and I use them in every track I do. Hardware does give it a little bit of extra spice. I noticed I could push the hardware units much more than I could traditionally with only plugins (ie. volume creates distortion).

    I pressed the dislike button. By the way you are manipulating the unit, it's clear you don't understand it, at all. Was hoping for a decent demo, but this is not it. No hard feelings, keep it up!

    • @labroadmastering
      @labroadmastering  2 года назад +1

      Mate isn’t that what you’re supposed to do? Manipulate is probably a wrong word choice. I’d call it "experimentation"?. Also read the note in the description, I made this video in the same week as getting the unit, you’d expect that there would be a learning curve to it? Thanks for watching!

      ​@@labroadmastering ​Yes, no problem with 'experimenting'! But no idea why you want to share this with the world. It's not particularly useful to new users searching for info on the unit. Like everything you do from 2:57 has no effect at all, because you didn't have the Depth and Width EQ enabled. I was just expecting a bit more, I guess. Keep on experimenting with it! 😉 Cheers!
