I wonder how much of this is psychological... but yeah, it certainly never made something worse. And once you've used it you tend to go back to it just like you describe.

@@Estuera Yeah definitely, there’s always a little confidence involved with some processors. Pro-Q, etc. could easily be massaged into doing a similar thing.

always a good idea to be bold an try new experiments with using different effects

Thanks :)

Thanks ! :)

Merci :) There are quite a lot of videos showing the Pultec trick in a very practical way but I'm also always interested in what the story behind these techniques are. It goes back a long time but luckily I still could find quite a lot of information about it.

Thanks and fully agree with your feedback.

me too!

yea

@Darius Aarav Yup, I've been using InstaFlixxer for years myself =)

@Darius Aarav yea, have been using instaflixxer for months myself :)

My pleasure :)

My pleasure 😉

@@Estuera If you want to test frequency response with precision, there is a way. Create a new wave file a few seconds long and draw a single sample spike in the middle of it. Send it through the EQ and do an analysis on the file. You want room on both ends of the spike, because the EQ implementation may have a part in front of the spike. In a typical linear phase EQ for instance, the response will be symmetrical. You can also see the technical quality of implementation using this method if you know your DSP. If you crop silence in this file, you have the reponse of the EQ at the given settings, which you can also apply to audio using a convolution plugin that accepts measured responses. You can use the same method to test and emulate guitar and bass cabinet/mic combinations. You can also test your room for early reflections.

Absolutely agreed!

Looks like it's the Vintage Tube EQ in Logic Pro X

I wonder how it compares with other plugins?

@@christophernoia5197 There is a Sound on Sound article with a comparison. In addition, there are Some KZfaq comparison video also.

Vintage EQ in Ozone too but dont know if it has the tube colouration aspects

Great to read it helped you out :)

Thanks :)

Hope you can make good use of them !

speaking of shitty old mixes, listen to “I want you back” by the jackson 5. the drum kit is hard panned all the way to the right and it’s horrific lmao

My pleasure :)

Thanks ! :)

ummthiso trick has been out for 20 years - everyone is doing it - if it is new to you , then you need to watch a lot more channels and other content...

@@levondarratt787 This isn't about the trick. FYI I'm a kickass producer and i can handle my low end without 20 year-old "tricks". The cool thing here is the content and it's structure. He doesn't go like "Hi guys just get a pultec and do this trick and you're good to go don't forget to like and sub". He talks about wtf is a pultec(which i didn't know and functionally it didn't matter) why it got popular, why it's important, how people use it and what are some good emulations of it. And it's cool to learn these stuff in like 8 minutes. It's not a "need" it's just a pleasure. I would even pay for this instead of paying netflix.

@@AlayliDracula there is no way you are a kick-ass producer without ever having encountered a Pultec, or at least the plugin. It's everywhere. So for the typical hobby guy working in his own bedroom, never leaving his bedroom, and head nodding to his own beats - yes it was a great history lesson, and to that - well done and structured.

@@levondarratt787 LOL. I love the internet.

I just got the waves one free and am going to try this exact thing as soon as I can

Thanks :)

Thanks ! :)

Thanks. And yes , can not hide the Dutch 😁 And I'll be checking out some of your content later today. I see a lot of interesting videos :)

@@Estuera Don't hide it! It has it's coolness too. I've accepted it also. And an honour if you scroll through my vids. Have to pump up my game, though. I notice your preparation a lot, which makes a huge difference. Also, for my it's hobby and therefore less prepared. But I notice the difference in quality a lot.

Things that really help indeed are writing a script (or at least an outline) for the video and general preparation. I also do a lot of work when editing though. Sometimes it's a miracle how much of a consistent story can be made with proper editing. (It helps that I really love editing work off course, always having fun)

Indeed. Somewhere in the comments we already had a discussion about this because there was some confusion. The way you describe it is correct.

Thanks and welcome :)
