Having a good source tone is the majority of getting a good mix. It’s why people used to spend a lot of time on sounds when recording because it would pay off when it was time to mix. You can only polish a turd so much.

I have a question. In the last section, he's addressing parallel compression and demonstrates with what appears to be a solo'd "Crush Bus" where we're only hearing the Crush Bus by itself . . . .then he makes his changes and brings the main drum sound back in and brings up the fader to show us how it makes it better . . . BUT!!!! HOW is it routed so that he can only hear the instruments coming into the Crush Bus and NOT the rest of the primary tracks? I'm guessing the CRUSH BUS SEND is set to "pre fader" but I'm not in front of my computer to try it!!! That seems VERY helpful. (sorry for the caps . . . we don't have "italics" . . . and I'm excited.

At 4:26 when you talk about “really hearing” what compression does by cranking it up, I just want to say that I heard people say that for years and never got it until I started doing that without automatic gain compensation turned on. Because then I was able to hear how the compression was really “compressing” the signal (i.e. lowering the signal). I never understood how or why it was that when I compress something it gets louder. Like that didn’t make sense to me and blocked me from understanding it for so long. Gain compensation is cool when you understand what’s going on, but before that it’s like a smoke bomb that obscures what’s really happening. Hope that helps someone. And by the way, that can be applied to limiting too. Instead of setting the limiter at like -0.1 db and pushing into it so everything gets super loud, try lowering the threshold down onto the mix and listen to what it’s doing by chopping of those peaks and transients and kinda mushing out the mix. Again, harder to notice when everything is just getting louder and louder.

Jordan has great info of course but I want to add some important things going on here (there are three) ... One, is a great performance by a great musician. Two, is a quality well-tuned drum kit. Three, is undoubtedly properly placed Microphones - whether expensive mics or not, whoever recorded this knew what they were doing and how to position the mics. Without these 3 things a compressor won't be much help. Thanks for the great video Jordan

Hey Jordan, I watched your other video on EQing snares, but I've heard a few guys talk about the phasing problems with EQing more than one source of an instrument, specifically Bass when you're high passing one and low passing the other. In your other video I saw that your EQ moves were fairly similar between the top and bottom snares. Could you maybe do a follow up video to this one going over the EQ you used here and what the potential phasing issues could be and how to avoid/work around them? Thanks.
