Want drums that really smack? This trick focuses on the space between the transients. It lets each hit explode, then pulls it back for maximum impact. Hear the difference! Watch the livestream: https://youtube.com/live/9Pu0ta3OdJw

Want to control how bombastic your drums sound? Feathering in the drum comp bus lets you carefully manage the spaces and perceived length of your hits. Keep the transients, fill the gaps. Watch the livestream: https://youtube.com/live/9Pu0ta3OdJw

What does it mean to have "clean" sound? Often, it's articulation: hearing the sharp edges of a note or chord. Some love a "smudge," others crave that crisp definition. Articulation is about keeping things unsmudged and clear. Watch the full livestream: https://youtube.com/live/pkhh3qPDDlA

Before YouTube, seeing which amps bands used in the studio was a mystery. Turns out, many big LA rock records used lesser-known amps, sometimes even kept secret. It wasn't always about endorsements or signature models—it was about what sounded best for the song. Watch the full livestream: https://youtube.com/live/pkhh3qPDDlA

What's the real difference between a VH4 and an amp sim? It's more than you think. We poured time and effort into making our CB4 amp sim sound *exactly* like the real deal. If it looks like the VH4, it has to *be* the VH4. I felt like every other option wasn't cutting it for me. Watch the full livestream: https://youtube.com/live/pkhh3qPDDlA

I bought this amp sight unseen. To be honest, I just took it out of the box a day or two ago. Plugged it in just to make sure it fired up, but this is as new to me as it probably is to you. Let’s see what we got! Watch the full livestream: https://youtube.com/live/pkhh3qPDDlA

People don't know what this amp sounds like, or even what it *is*. For the last 20 years, a bunch of session musicians have either owned one or played a ton of sessions through it. This thing has been all over records. You'd be surprised. Watch the full livestream: https://youtube.com/live/pkhh3qPDDlA

When training assistants, one should imagine that the next person doesn't have the opportunity to explain anything. Make sure they have all the information they need to fill in the blanks and answer any questions. Label tracks and playlists well. Watch The Full Livestream: https://youtube.com/live/XAl_bet7ZCY

Collaborating? Figure out a system. Before sending tracks to mix, request a quick session cleanup. Rename tracks for seamless matching and import. Save time and frustration with good communication! Watch The full livestream here: https://youtube.com/live/XAl_bet7ZCY
