How come I feel like I just smoked a lot of good weed with him and want to leave his room but don't want to be rude, so I am really stoned and just listening to him but have no idea what he is talking about and I just want to go home because there is something really erotic about the situation but I am too stoned to know if it is just my imagination

“Use the inferior one that you have” 😂😂 awesome

Dude, I know you’ve had some challenges over the last year or so, but I just want you to know that I always come back and review your videos, because they are always insightful. Hope you’re doing better these days!

Just what I needed, was just about to start mixing a track. Nothing quite like 16 mins with Gregory to recontexualise things :)

Funny thing: I do it exactly vice versa, than you explained regarding your "sound signature" at 5:20 . Before I finish a mix, I put an EQ on the master bus, adjust it to my likings until the mix sounds better to me, and then switch it off again and start compensating for everything that's missing in the mix without the mix bus EQ. Works perfectly and helps making "ear fatique" obvious.

UBK was probably a very effective marriage counselor in a past life. I feel like if mixes were women, this video series is helping me understand why they feel unfulfilled.

Breaux just gave us the keys to the kingdom. So so grateful for your channel. The only channel on YouTube that treats audio engineering like art and not science.

" Use the Hammer with the inferior Pultec that you already have"  Gold

Im just gonna leave a like and come back when I'm in need of mixing inspiration. I love your style of teaching. You focus on the feeling behind mixing.

Come back to us greg! Hope you okay brother

I can't stop recommending this channel to my friends. Hands down the best music production channel on Youtube

No edits needed when you've got flow. Nice one.

I've missed you man. Honestly, Gregg I'm so grateful for everything you've created. I've used a lot of different plugins and companies over the years, but I find myself using yours more than anyone. I love the tone of your saturations, I love the musicality of your compressors - shaping and gluing the sound without adding ugly artefacts. I love the smoothness of your EQ's... they're just amazing plugins and I worship those 3 in Sly-Fi. Finally, for me there is no better plugin in a mix bus than Blyss! Thank you, legend.

"Flauer Pauer" and "Green Pond Alge" preset names is what makes Hammer eq so good.

For me, the problem with mixing into a bunch of "top down" mixbus processing is that it effects every element in the mix, whether needed or not.  Now I not only need to address the elements that still require some shaping, but I also have to fix those elements that didn't need that processing in the first place.
It's like salting your entire meal, even though only the steak required it, then having to go and pull all of the salt out of the peas and potato to preserve their proper flavor.
Fix problems that need to be fixed, and leave the rest alone.

funny story, everyone freaks out when they see my sessions, the only thing on my master bus is the FFT and coloration meters by voxengo. I hate the sound of any master processing because after 20 years of ear training I mix from getting the sounds right at source and channel. I just let my transients hit the red and it goes out as is. 100 million streams in I have no reason to change it!

Just want to point out, if you don't understand or appreciate this advice fully right away, don't worry.
These are fairly advanced concepts.
Come back to this video in 6 months or 6 years and you'll go ahhh, now it makes sense. Density, sonic shaping and 'finishing' will become clear when your ears, skills and workflow are ready for them.
Top vid as always Gregory.

I have tried top-down-mixing before and it was a different flavor overall for me.

But I resonate with this a lot - I do mixing with virtually NO effects on my mix buss and have no problems. I get the dynamics how I want them and, as you said - glue it together without compression and have never had issues. When I tried top-down for the first time - it was like "Huh, that's kinda cool" but it didn't really make a massive difference for me in terms of "WHOA this just changed my life"

Overall --> there is WAY too much hype online and WAY too much of the "THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE" mentality that is actually pretty harmful to the average person because it's almost never true.

This is what I love about the Internet - not only do I get to hear the wisdom of Gregory Scott, but also have access to the wisdom of someone like Billy Decker who does the complete opposite - mixing into Ozone, using templates, etc. What a time to be alive and making music.

I expect him to be clickbaiting, but im blown away every time!!
