One of the most generous teachers I've followed. Thanks G.C

Hey guys Graham here from the recording revolution.

Love it!
I was kind of struggeling with having to much fancy plugins and WOW!-making machines in my DAW, when I tried this it was like going back to school and it was really exciting! Fixed my mix! Thank you Graham!

great plugin. those interested might want to try the Harrison Mixbus 32C console. It was designed from the ground up by Harrison Consoles to simulate their analogue hardware right down to the electrical circuit. But instead of doing that per-track, the entire console is emulated. Correct me if I am wrong. I love using it. The workflow is immediate and fast. No need to display a plugin window floating over your daw. I think propellerhead does a similar thing?

Waves must have a SSL 4000 Collection special or something because this is the 3rd video I see in my subscription feed about the SSL plugins from various channels.

Would have been a great idea if waves had released a dedicated control surface that looked like the channel strip.

Hey Graham! Thanks for the great tips. I would love to try using this method as a starting point in my mixes.

[Mcbassy]

Thank.You. For. This. Video. It's all about time-saving and the E channel is amazing!! Turning my daw into a console

Just for kicks I checked an SSL E 4000 G+ console price on ebay: €59000. And Waves' plug collection costs $299 at their site right now. So it's not the same sound as the console, but... with a bit of perspective, the plugs are useful and practical, especially if you're mixing on the go. Nice presentation.

I'm going to try this and do a video. Thank you, Graham. You rock. 👌🏾

this is the way i do it in cubase with the G channel. I have the plugin mapped out to the tascam us2400 and its all you need! It has everything you need. EQ, HP/LP, gate, comp,

Rumor has it, if you count how many times he blinks, your daw turns into the console over night.

Jk, love Graham. Learned a lot from his videos

*WOW!! Super Video!* Amazing! I have the Wave SSL plugins and i like it. This Sound is very good. Thank you so much for this great Video. Very best regards from Anni from Germany 💕 💞 💓 💗 💖

Hello. If I have in my Waves plugins more options from one type (for example: IR1 efficient Stereo/ IR1 full Stereo/ IR1 mono-Stereo), how do I know which one I should to choose?

Thank you for all your advices.

Graham, always that brutal video editing..

[adamziokowski]

I am using SSL demo at the moment and it definitely is huuuuge timesaver. Great stuff from Waves. Guys check out NLS too.

[rickyred]

Its also a good idea to use the Waves NLS on the last insert of your channel signal chains in the mix. Obviously the NLS would be set to the SSL configuration... And have the NLS stereo buss on the master fader for the true SSL experience

I'm sure I read somewhere that the plugins add an analogue interpolation so that 2 channels with the same audio, same SSL plug in with the same settings will sound different to mimic the different in the analogue path. I also find that when wearing a button down collar, I think it sounds better when those buttons are engaged but that's just personal opinion.

[MultiGuitarman]

Love the plugin. Not too big a fan of that snare sound. Too small and thin. But thats just my personal preference 😇

[AboveStars]

I'm totally going to do this. is why I haven't thought of it!
