iZotope RX: Why Is Everyone In Love With This Thing?
Thanks Geoff a a very good analysis for sure. Really helps me with this process...
My view is so different from yours. On the screen of logic I see pictures of instruments- not this list view. Can you help?
This just might be the best RC-20 demo vid on RUclips. Really good stuff. Subbed. 👍
Is this thing able to separate multiple tracks of guitar, say, 2 or 3 guitar tracks, individually, or will it just create one separate track from all the guitars?
Now this is a review! Thank you. Do you have an affiliate link for the Valhalla plugin?
Nope but there’s an affiliate link for anything on Sweetwater.
@@ManchesterMusic Alright, Sweet! Well, I was on the fence for buying the plugin. Thanks to your review anyway I just purchased it and downloaded directly from Valhalladsp site. 😎
When Bouncing to Stereo from Mono, why not back to mono and then at then end of post to Stereo, or does not matter? I never sure about this?
This is a great channel.
The best of the bunch is always missing, anywhere and everywhere. Talking about marketing...
Excellent instructor, great engineer, thank you for making me smarter.
I always liked your videos, but this time in my opinion you are doing it wrong! Why send a stereo instrument like drums to a chamber reverb that is set to mono? You get phasing which is clearly audible and not a consistent drum reverb sound.
Q3 interface is beautiful af
Depending on the meter ballistics, the actual compression on peaks could be much more than indicated.
17:39 that’s definitely the effect on the guitar on J Coles song Kevins Heart
Glow is absolutely brilliant reverb and is actually better than the UA RMX16 which I also own. I'm so glad that Glow exists because my UA Satellite Quad thunderbolt just died on me a few weeks ago. There is no way I'd be investing in UA's outdated DSP chips in 2024. Thank God for companies like wave alchemy who can rival Universal Audio at a fraction of the price and also for Apple for developing Apple Silicon Chips which are so powerful thus making external DSP chips unnecessary in most use cases.
I miss Manchester Music
He’s kind of overrated tbh
Primeacoustic London 8 cuts down on reverb only nominally. Its okay for a podcaster or a home theater or maybe music, but not for voiceover. I will make up for it with other treatment
From what I can tell, soundgym is not what I was hoping for. Software like this (eg Syntorial as well) has a flaw of being focused on reverse engineering sounds. If you’re trying to copy what someone else did from a reference track, this is a useful skill, but if you’re trying to CREATE something and it’s not coming out how you want, it doesn’t really teach you how to fix sound problems - ie, how to mix well. Does being able to hear EQ, compression, or reverb help you determine if a mix needs those things or how much? (It certainly doesn’t hurt, I suppose) Let me caveat that I think soundgym is just advertising “ear training”, so I’m not saying it doesn’t do what’s advertised. I am saying it appears that it wouldn’t be that useful as a tool to improving one’s ability to mix well. Perhaps I’m wrong.
Joy Division shirt - a great Manchester band!
Great video bro 🔥
This is SO helpful. I've been poking at delay for years, not really getting how to use it effectively. Subscribed!
Hi, How can I enter chords into the scaler from my midi keyboard? I don't want to load them from the lists, I just want to play them by ear on midi keyboard. Please help. I know that I can turn on recording in the scaler, and play chords in my daw, but I prefer to put them from the keyboard, not from my daw. Is there such a possibility?
Amazing video! Thank you!!
"Not really liking that.." 🙂
God
Amazing content, it was great how you broke everything down, thank you!
What size is your room?
This kind of websites are just to hear cool stories in the music industry, but not to learn how to mix or face any problem
it's stated that all the documentation is inside the plugin itself - it always has some description appearing at the bottom. And then, on their website, they have a lot of "learn" articles that not only teach you tips and tricks, but also have articles literally named "valhalla xxx : what is it and what it does " . The combination of both give you the most detailed documentation and tips and tricks that ,you could possibly find in the majority of other plugins, in my humble opinion. Everytime they add new algorithms they also go very deep into describing them, their uniqueness and why were they added and what you can achieve with them
U took a long time to explain the difference of reverbs
Its not a problem if you know how to use the tool.
I'd love to get SplitEQ - I have so many eqs that I'm not sure I can justify it yet... Here are my 2 cents: Claro is super cool, I use Ableton and Claro's mixing part messes up a bit with the names, kinda confusing and it lacks dynamic eq - sure they'll add it for v2 and charge you. Sonible SmartEQ4 - or 3, back in the day when this vid was made- is on another level, I only got the Claro because it was discounted at 20 bucks, but SmartEQ4 is the only one that is keeping me away from pro q or kirchhoff. Can't speak for SplitEQ, but transient EQing seems on another level; although SmartEQ has an adaptive function, which isn't the same. Claro is cool, only get it discounted, for retail price SmartEQ 4 is cheaper and better. The other one that I've yet to try is the DMG EQ, someday...
I couldn't hear a difference between any of them. I do have high frequency hearing damage, but dang... thought i'd hear some difference.
Damn I struggle with the same damage. Sucks
Really good explanation, even better than the creator of scaler and to be honest they would have a lot more customer if they explain it as good as you did here. The potential for orchestral and gaming score is there but we don't know how to use it correctly.
Microphone?
they’re both “Pro’s”. it would have been cool if you’d differentiated between the two by calling them the 900’s and the 990’s
12:20
Wondering how it compares to the A7V
Very nice video. Thanks! I assume that the XY pad movements can be recorded in the DAW?
I am finding there is something weird going on in the left and right signal ????
Thanks for doing this comparison!😊 I really like the comparisons. If you ever decide to revisit vocal channel strips, I’d be grateful if you’d include Voxformer from Voxengo.
I found exactly the same with 990s. Lovely for listening to music, but I couldn't mix with them. They're not neutral. I've had far more success with 770s and 880s for mixing. From you review I might replace my broken 990s with those 900s
Very excited to receive mine , I'm upgrading from T7Vs {which are fantastic btw}. gonna binge my fav albums.
After having had several Sennheiser headphones with my first one being the famous HD 414 (long ago) I got tired of the Sennheisers because their cables often break, especially the tiny plugs are awful. In the end I came down to the point to say they sound dull somehow and I wanted to purchase a neutral and clean sounding headphone of another brand. Two years after intensive studies and comparison of technical features ago I bought a Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X and was stunned regarding the super clear sound even revealing the growling of deep bass response in HighRes records and old songs of mine that I had missed with any other headphone I had used. They are a joy on the ear and you can wear them for 6 hours in a row without taking them off. Perfect for the use in long studio sessions. I would certainly recommend to test these for your mixing sessions if you cannot use a speaker system, for example during night hours. On the other hand I am convinced that for mixing and mastering a decent set of loudspeakers (with subwoofer) should be applied. I would not work with headphones all the time. It may still lead you to wrong decision-making. But in general, these DT900 ProX will not disappoint you. (/from Germany)
ARC Studio sounds much better and runs in hardware
dont all compressors do that?
USB ... one speaker at a time ... how does that work on 2 channel music? Genelec 8343 provide ethernet connections and you can manage both at the same time. Thanks for the review ... still undecided between Genelec and Adam.
Thank you, sir!
This was great. Cheers mate
Adobe stuff is impressive for the voice! Lalalai is basically a gate so I wouldn't call this "AI". You can do the same with free plugins out there!
This was awesome thanks!
