Excellent! Thank you

I just signed up for the pro package. Im already feeling this is way over my head as a beginner. Thought this was going to be more classes on how to mix step by step.

I'm super curious if I should be running into a D/A converter like a Lavry or if at this point in history my UAD Apollo converters are more than enough. Always a little latency in my Logic environment no matter what fix I try vs UAD monitoring. Otherwise this was wonderfully illuminating!

Brilliant!

This was a treat! It's not very technical, but it seems like they leave the real technical stuff to Alan Moulder. Instead, it's a fascinating look at his creative approach as a brilliant producer / composer / arranger. That said, it would have been cool to see a little more of his drum processing, and a little more in depth look at the gear / plugins.

Hey MWTM .... Love the site but this type of content is not very informitive. NIN is one of my biggest influences but watching someone solo tracks and talk about pedals is not learning.
Adam Box January 11, 2019 at 7:05 PM

Agree

Brian Connolly April 15, 2019 at 8:37 PM

disagree, i love this kind of thing

I too disagree with Richard and Adam, and agree with L Anthony and Brian. I really enjoyed listening to the creative process and found Atticus Ross talking about the artistry to be very inspiring. Please keep this type of content.

Felipe Gutierrez January 28, 2025 at 3:45 PM

I agree. Feels like I wasted my 1/4 videos on this really... Philosophically interesting at points, but so uninformative in terms of know-how.

Your drummer is an amazing engineer and producer I'd love to hear an EP filtered through his creative.

Hi Everyone, the part 3 is now fixed. Thank you for your patience. -- MWTM Team
David Scott January 6, 2019 at 6:10 AM

Thanks! It's still a bit spotty but at least I get further than before!
