Instead of saying if you have seven plugins on a vocal you're doing something wrong, he should have said if you have seven vocal plugins that you're using there is an easier way..

Would it kill you to level match the before and after at 6:41 Waves? It's 2023.

I have a gut feeling that a lot of people who hated Waves still miss Waves...

I love Jeff's minimal relaxed approach to engineering, I also have this plugin and it has heaps of potential.

Wait, hold up. You're saying if you're using more than 7 plugins you're doing something wrong? Yet the two plugins you're using in this showcase has a combined plugin force of 7 plugs? Silk vocals is a dynamic EQ, De-esser-ish and a compressor. The magma plugin consist of four plugins in one. Harmonic distorter, EQ, compressor and a gate. So, seven plugins in two. And not to speak of the "analog plugins" (hardware gear) used while recording? I'm just pointing this out to the people getting discouraged here that this statement is, well, weird. Keep mixing with your ears people and use whatever you need to get the sound you want. :)

Thank you for your review. With all due respect and considering the unique challenges faced by a rapper, it might be challenging to assess this plugin's suitability with an artist limited to a 3-note vocal range, as it may not fully encompass the spectrum required for singers.

It would be nice to hear this demonstrated with a singer.

A good demo should be before/after level matched or all we hear is LOUDER. Interesting video and I now know how to use the thing, but level-matching is CRITICAL in a demo.

I enjoy the choice of words "finesse the mid range" 😂

I want to thank Waves for giving out Silk plugin for free Black Friday..what an amazing from the best plug in / hardware audio company ever 👐

Can we use this plugin like 'Soothe 2' or 'Pro Q3' as a sidechain effect where the plugin suppresses/ reduces the problematic resonances? Thank you for sharing the above video!

To be honest I don't hear the difference when he's demonstrating vocal with and without the plugin...

I did a video on East West Studios, didnt even see this room! lol

I like it a lot !!! 🎉

The song sounding good is it out yet?

Wow man this is amazing I love it.😃👍❤️

Wow..im very interested in those Kali audio monitors.. what are the black Kali ones on the other console ?

did he have an eq on the vocal before using silk?

Great video! But we gotta admit it sounded great from the start haha

Sweet video

Отличный плагин!

May I know the order of the plugins ? Magma Tube Channel first ? or silk vocal first ?

Is he using these plugins on a bus channel?

Lol that definetly doesnt sound finished but good effort

What are those white speakers ? What brand are those ?

🙂👍

This video is complete SCHMALTZ.

That tool does not make this music ;-)

I cannot understand why you would pick a rapper over a singer to demonstrate a vocal plugin… If I was doing this I’d pick a person who could actually sing!!!!!

ok, now sounds louder, waves sucks with demonstrations

Love the minimalist approach. Dude kinda annoys me though. Acts like he knows everything while using a cheap ass waves plug-in 😂

Is this really what people are listening to now days? The mix is fine, the music is terrible.

This isn't hip hop. This is 4 on the floor. Rapping doesn't make it hip hop. Decent vid tho.
