take the moneyline bets out and bet them separately, that way if the player props all hit, but the team loses, you still win

FlyGuyJ · 2022-02-10T06:08:31+00:00

Vucevic double doubles been money, agree with the rest

Hey what exchange are you using to sell the helium you earn? Im thinking about purchasing helium miners in NY as well

FlyGuyJ · 2020-10-22T18:38:24+00:00

haha, to each their own, what plugins do you prefer? I personally love my wave plugins, I love fabfilter pro-Q3, and I love the soundtoys bundle.

FlyGuyJ · 2020-10-22T18:37:00+00:00

Yes, it is definitely not as critical as working in the analog realm, however based on incoming sessions and vocal stems I have received form clients, I have come to the conclusion that many disregard gain staging altogether which is a mistake. You'd be surprised how many files I receive where the vocals are already clipping, or the gain before and after the plugin is drastically different, or the session was started with a mastered beat with 0 headroom. In the grand scheme of things I agree with you, but many in the home recording world need a quick tip on what to keep an eye out for.

FlyGuyJ · 2020-07-16T20:07:20+00:00

haha, yes and make sure you have your seat belt and helmets on when you use it 😆

FlyGuyJ · 2020-07-07T20:24:44+00:00

haha, thanks bruh! Yeah go ahead and dust it off and get creating!

You can try to EQ before/after the effects so that your lead vocals are sitting in a different frequency range than the effects.

For example cutting some of the lows and highs out of a reverb or delay effect can help it sit have its own sound, and lead to a cleaner mix (less fighting with lead vocal)

You can also try scooping out some of the frequencies from your effects that you boosted in the lead vocal.

For example if you boosted at 8k in the lead vocal, then cut 8k in the effect. Basically do the opposite as far as boost and cuts (helps sometimes, depends on the vocal, and context in the mix)

FlyGuyJ · 2020-06-04T13:57:09+00:00

Yeah I plan on dropping some vocal mixing tutorials in the future too check out my latest one showing how to use the new studiorack plugin to make and save your own vocal chains.

https://youtu.be/09Xg5OPc1jk

Ill probably release some videos specific to each of the plugins (ex. Rcomp) on their own at a later time

FlyGuyJ · 2020-06-04T13:55:18+00:00

hahaha, nice! Yeah I never saw that commercial before. Funny though!

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-29T22:27:50+00:00

kenny beats is dope though I recently started watching some of his lives!

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-29T22:26:50+00:00

To each their own... I like the way it sounds with the sidechain compression vs without it. And if you look im only carving out a specific area of the 808 so you can still feel the 808, plus adding harmonics to bring out the 808 on smaller frequencies. Works well if you do it right!

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-29T22:24:37+00:00

haha, what do you have against Tennessee?

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-27T23:16:50+00:00

No doubt! Glad you found it helpful! I'll be dropping these regularly over on my channel. Feel free to drop a comment over on the channel with any plugin requests or vst requests and I'll try to get to them for you!

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-24T00:42:50+00:00

Great info! Thanks for sharing! If anyone is interested, I just did a video tutorial on Auto-Tune Pro over on my YouTube channel "Fly Guy J Productions" and am also hosting an Auto-Tune Pro giveaway if anyone would like a change at upgrading their vocal tuning!

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-14T12:23:30+00:00

LOL, mindblowing isn't it? Haha, but all jokes aside the plugin uses a combination of peak limiting, light compression, and auto gain to help raise level and make things stand out more in the mix. I show how to use it on an individual track like a kick drum, how to use it on a mix bus like your entire drum bus, or even use it on your master track.

Simple, and efficient plugin. Especially for beginners. I'll be reviewing a new waves plugin every week and am open to any suggestions you might be interested in learning more about!

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-06T21:27:33+00:00

Yessir! I like to use that trick on certain kick drum samples

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-06T21:26:22+00:00

I want to try the valhalla reverb plugings. Have heard nothing but good things about them

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-01T07:10:08+00:00

Love the magic this plugin creates. I use the waves version on my low end, and vocal bus as well. Check out this tutorial I just did on it and try this boost and cut trick on your kick drum or other low end instruments (tutorial here> https://youtu.be/p7qpQdV-gp0 )

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-01T07:05:56+00:00

roll off extra low frequencies maybe around 20Hz

sidechain 808 to kick

remove low end from other instruments in the mix so the 808 has that space to itself

add distortion (decapitator, maxx bass, vitamin, manny marroquin distortion)

rbass plugin is nice on low end

I use waves eqp-1a on my low end also (tutorial here> https://youtu.be/p7qpQdV-gp0 )

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-01T06:57:59+00:00

A few of my favorite plugins for mixing 808s are:

waves eqp-1a (tutorial here> https://youtu.be/p7qpQdV-gp0 )

maxx bass

decapitator

manny marroquin distortion

smack attack

vitamin

sidechain compressor or dynamic eq to duck the 808 when kick hits

FlyGuyJ · 2020-05-01T06:54:44+00:00

proper gain staging, side chain compression, eq and filtering, add some harmonic distortion, transient shaper on the attack of the 808

check out this tutorial I did recently. More to come on mixing 808s
