Comparing the hardware to the digital version of the plugin. Sample Rate: 96khz The threshold and gain settings are not identical between the plugin and hardware, instead I set the threshold on each to get the same amount of gain reduction and the output gain was set to volume match.

I show you how to setup reaper so that a midi-controller or midi track controls your autotune vst.

I discuss why recording music videos at 4am is a bad idea.

I was scrolling through Jari's instagram and figured out why Time 2 still hasn't been released.

#Archetype #Petrucci #Cla Comparing some presets between these different sets of plugins. DI track processed by each plugin, no other effects. I apologize for the sound quality, the video editing software applied some effects that I didn't catch and ruined the sound. I'll most likely re-upload this video later. This is not a super technical comparison, it's pretty basic and meant more to illustrate which plugins have the best out-of-the-box sound. Be sure to subscribe!

Today we do a quick comparison and determine if a cloudlifter is worth it. We run an SM7b into a cloudlifter and direct into both an SSL2+ and an RME UFX+ and determine if the cloudlifter makes a big difference. Intro: (0:00) Raw SSL2+ Samples: (0:39) Raw RME Samples: (0:109) Boosted SSL2+ Comps: (1:39) Boosted RME Comps: (2:09) My Thoughts: (2:41)

Comparing Vintage 30 vs. Seventy 80 vs. Man-O-War. All speakers are recorded inside of the Marshall DSL40c Cab.

Comparing how the SSL2+ and the Scarlett solo process audio and if there is an audible difference between the two. This a re-upload of a previous video I had, but I made a few edits to make a couple of things more obvious. All audio is recording @ 48khz Voice Signal Path: Sm7b - Cloudlifter - SSLSix - [SSL2+ and Scarlett Solo] Amp Signal Path: Same as above, but Sm57 is added in as primary mic, blended with Sm7b at a low volume. Audio has been boosted to a normal listening level. There are obvious things to consider when getting an interface, such as how much gain it can provide for your microphone, headroom, inputs/outputs, etc. However, this video is meant to compare if there is an audible difference between the supposedly better converters in the SSL2+ vs the Focusrite.

Be sure to subscribe! Audio Recorded@ 96khz Both mics were directly routed into a UFX+ No cloudlifter on the SM7b Sm7b @ 65db gain to reach the same output volume as the WA251 @ 35db gain.
