Tony's the real deal, He gave details on all aspect of mixing, from emotion to technical parameters. One of the best interviews.. Dave as always delivers the intricate analysis we all love him for.

Tony Reminds me of a dentist. A very talented mixing dentist.

two masters discussing their craft - mesmorising to watch - and I am glad I understand what they are talking about.

In reply to the ITL; Another trick I've recently used to get sharper esses in my mix: duplicate the vocal track. Put a de-esser on the duplicate and put it to "listen" mode, which isolates the esses. Now you can mix that in with to original or treat it with distortion, EQ, comp, etc. to make it do what you want.

Dave is just an unbelievably nice guy.

Every single person deserve more Love in Pensado's place thank you sir for inspiring our generation and up coming gen.

i'm learning a shit-ton just listening to these guys talk, and I'm not a mixer, I'm a composer / musician. I'm starting to "see" (hear) holes in the sonic landscape of my compositions. very cool.

"My favorite mixes create images in my mind i dont care if they're the correct image or even the image the mixer wanted me to have , I just want a damn image." Dave

I think that Tony Maserati is a smart & humble person. An engineer that pays attention to details & the opinions of his clients. A guy of relationships. No surprise that he's so successful!

Over the last few years I have got into Mix Engineering and Producing and I have to say these guys dont get enough credit in the industry.

It's a treat to watch these 2 living legends discuss mixing.

What an amazing interview with a living legend. I love how you get into the nitty gritty, and was excited to go back and listen to blurred lines after learning of the 8th note/16th note delay tricks is using!! I always learn something new Herb and Dave! Great work!

One of the best interviews, no lie

"Anyway....It's like Chinese water torture" I have so many one liners from Dave I can use on customers that are most of the time...ice breakers.

showin some love and respect from Brazil guys!!! no words to say thanks for the incredible school-channel-show!!! big knowledge ! long life! future revolution. peace and love!

I love this show

You guys are simply awesome for putting these shows together. Just have to say thanks for everything you guys do for us!

Thank you Dave and Herb for this amazing conversation !

Awesome show! Tony Maserati is an inspiration.

Thoroughly enjoyed this, thank you so much Pensado's Place / Tony Maserati!

Tony Maserati is a great professional, smart and humble. Love this man !

You guys are so real! Amazing stuff!

Loved the entire interview. Tony is such a deep thinker,

Great insight, as always.... THX Mr. Maserati, Dave!

If I ever have a question on how to conduct myself, I just watch video with Tony Maseratil.

Great Show!! You guys are the Best!!!!

ITL video editing was awesome. The ITL again was a great lesson too! thanks guys!!

I watch every episode at least 5 times!

stubbled upon this channel, now im addicted lol

Lest we forget thanking #HerbTrawick for turnin #youtube into a more useful source of information than any $7,000.00 Recording Shool. Yall already know what you're doin for us TRUE schoolers, but your impact on the children with this vocational interest at heart is worthy of top honors.

Best video I've ever seen on KZfaq. I feel so good after watching this. Mr. Maserati is brilliant. Explained everything soooo well. Thanks Pensado's Place! -Ali-

This is so informative and at the same time so funny!! I totally love the show!! Maserati is really cool!! :D

Right on, I was thinking the same thing.. I learn so much from this channel!

my band just got in an argument with out producer about whether or not cowbell could be a hook and we cited blurred lines. thanks for settling this

just another awesome show from the best team online

I like tony s works, a great mixer indeed

Tony is a Genius

Love your plugins Tony . I will buy them all when i can afford them.

Watching in 2022 🙃

Great interview with a real master! I love his attitude towards artists. Getting to know the artist is key, but it's also an effort. To many producers and mix engineers just do their own thing.

Love you guys!

Great show!

More Tony! Great interview!

Love it guys

So interesting listening to this now year’s later knowing that Robin didn’t actually participate in the writing of Blurred Lines.

Wow...i cant believe how good that show was! Probably as good as the CLA and JJP episodes! Thanks a lot guys for this incredible information...you really are the best! ;-)

Great show indeed! Much love :)

Love the channel! Can we change the roadhouse 1992 Rosanne intro music? It so waters down the show to me... again-> love the show though thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SUPER SHOW !!!

P.P. is my deserted island youtube show

mind blown by Pensando!

Dave is such a freakin sweetheart. 💙

F*&^%$#G GREAT EPISODE! Love this show

Oh my god the ITL just blew my mind wide open!!!!

I´m happy for you!

genuine

Gracias Dave! que buen programa

Seriously man, you guys are too cool. My mixes have increased 10x in the past half a year. And it's not even because of ITL. It's just attitude towards the mix. It is indeed, all about 'feel'. Mixing's no longer a science for me

i just wanna sit down watching these guys work in a studio, even if i only have to be the janitor..i'd learn aalot

great interview

great interview!

and so and so forth, lol. i like Herb's twist on "and so on and so forth", haha.

HD stands for "Herb & Dave."

Those "mmhmm"s in unison hahaha.

There is better way to isolate sibilants, instead of EQ you can use FabFilter Pro-DS with Audition Triggering button, you can hear on which parts of the audio Pro-DS is triggering. This helps you choose an appropriate Threshold level as well, making sure Pro-DS is catching all necessary peaks without triggering on anything else; and use that for triggering expander.

44:11 Batter's Box (My favorite part of every show!)

"Blurred Lines" aint no "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough"

class act!

all these guys are gents

Thank you all :)

Wow I see a lot of Pro-Q in the "Into the Lair" segment! Liking that plugin Dave? I've been in love with everything FabFilter makes lately!

Big Dave!

BEST SHOW EVER!! Thank you guys sooooo much for this :) P.S. will there be any chance for Jeff Bhasker on interview someday?? I love to see him on this show :)

nice hitting em with the cigar scotch combo

That made me laugh being almost 60 and never loved rock more than now. I often smile to my self at Daves deplomacy twards the art he works on . And I wonder what he realy thinks.Cause to me some is just t.v. comercials gone horribly wrong or something. Forgive my frankness LOL. Not all U understand

Probably the Avid D-Fi family (Lo-Fi is one of the included plugins, and can do sample rate reduction and saturation)

damn that ITL was sick!!

Starts at 12:09

Cool.

great episode.. I just have the craziest idea: you guys had an episode with Jens Bogren ! he's one of the hotest names in the mixing rock and metal world right now. if you guys don't know him check him out.

Just Give Me A Reason by Pink

When will they talk to Mark "Spike" Stent?!!!!

41:21....best moment of the show...."oooh god!"

This might be a stupid question to some, but sometimes you gotta ask those questions to learn. Was blurred lines monophonic? At 23:00 Dave talked about that the effect of the panning in the song wouldn't work if the song was stereo?

Also, what are the records you are talking about? One with Robin and Pink?

Must admit, that song "blurred lines"...I don't really like it....but the way it was produced...and mixed....it has balls!...in today's pop world, hard panned isolated elements and quieter vocals is a gutsy move....bravo!

Could someone tell what topics the touch on in this interview so i know if it interests me?

where do you find the answer to the vintage king question from dave?

So how do these guys know each other? Dave and Herb? Are they buddies that decided to start a KZfaq channel and just started making these badass videos or what?

What is this CLA 800 hz you are talking about at 19:31

Would you care to let us listen to short excerpts of the tracks you are talking about, because you might not know this: but not everyone is super focused on the lives of the artists you invite... We don't necessarily know what track they are talking about (even if you think it's supposed to be super famous), so being able to hear excerpts would help make sense of all the great material they are saying in the meantime. Otherwise I can't even tell if he is right or wrong :D

where is the answer to the vintage king guy question?

Dave, where the good old NS10s gone??

Really? He sounded like he was making it up as he went along. Though most of Dave's interviewees seem to in comparison.

Cowbells are people too.

Another Excellent show guys! …I have an idea for a contest. Someone, somehow wins a day with a pro ("It's me, Dave! Let me in, man. I got the stuff"). A day of apprenticeship, where we can learn how to pull off a great mix with what we have. …Just to throw that idea out there into the universe.

Awesome show! Mr. Tony is a smooth as the scotch he drinks.

WOAH!! @34:28 Did I just hear Dave say that it was "dark already" BECAUSE it was 24 bit? Meaning 24 bit files are darker than 16 bit files? OR did he mean that it was dark already because of the way the producer recorded it down, and the quality of the sound was already in the file when it was sent over...and therefore he wanted it in 24 bit so he got the clearest picture of the way it was recorded from the get go? I'm totally lost on this. Just in case I didn't ask that clearly...let me rephrase it.....Is he saying that 24 bit files are naturally darker sounding than 16 bit files etc? 16 bit files are brighter? That's heavy to me because I normally associate 24 bit with more headroom....depth.... space and clarity.....not color. That's some deep stuff if that really is the case and I'd be extremely grateful if someone who is well versed in this would fill me in. Thanks.

'warm' is harmonically distorted

In context of Dave's videos - i have picked up some good tips, but i find he only says what he is doing and never explains in steps by showing us how he is doing what he does. They are not really like tutorials in this sense. It would be nice if he showed us a process step by step , showing how to do what he is doing in practice not just in theory.
