- Pensado's Place - #21 - The secrets behind tuning your room!

[LyricalAssassin]

first of all: great show you guys, so glad i found it... but i didnt get what that with the mirrior was..... if i can see the face of the speaker, that means what?

[TimMer1981]

First time ever that I watched a video by you guys; just discovered your channel. Also the first time ever that I watched a video on Youtube lasting longer than ten minutes, so that's says something about the amount of quality in your vids. :) Thanks a lot for the info and fun you gave me. :)

[briguyhackins]

Lord tunderin Jayzus.  You guys heard of editing? Seriously, there is great info here but a bunch of useless talk too. You guys are not funny. I've taught in the creative field for 27 years and if I did a wandering talk like this my students would run out the door.

[natfunk71]

@briguyhackins I think the original broadcast is live.

[slo77y]

wow, that was informative. thank you very much! can´t wait to try everything out :)

[alawrence89]

"I know you can't answer that but just give me a stupid number... I forgot my other question, damnit." lol, I love Dave.

[TheSuperMegaHyper]

this was intense and very, very informative. made a lot of notes with this one.

thank you

[lfiof]

This room tuner technician is so credible, I wish I could have this guy in my room….Thanks and keep up the videos , A Big Thanks.

[filterdecay]

whats with the audio hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Lgw1984]

Is it just me or Pensado looks stoned in every single chapter?

[BayanTheOne]

@Lgw1984

i think he looks exhausted rather than stoned, plus medical problems he was referring to should be taking toll

but this episode is exceptional

[AntiVaccine2]

@Lgw1984 see my vids&learn herbs like coriander,cayenne,kelp,kale,da­ndelion ETC:)

[nanomyou5]

Listen to 34.30... about directionality of the speakers.

That's why you need a uniform directivity (less reflections) and an evenly lowering power approximation (no colouration in reflected sound).

Not many manufacturers know how to do this, but Genelec, Amphion and Neumann understand it.

[nativebecky5]

whats going on look at this jb unseen vide0 i found for my channeI

[dihydrotestosterone]

great video but its painful listening to the guy with the messy hair....he has a hard time explaining and finding the right words...

[pjhudsonjr]

I could listen to these guys all day

[teeno7]

yes this show is special indeed. id like to have a similar source for the creativity or record making process. I don't expect that from a mixing programme however not from this program. but another would be great, if anyone knows about such a thing.

[SimonFunkel]

Wowwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I needed this!

[uberschaller]

what a great guest! excellent personality....

[givemeaname02]

Thank you all for this! I am just about to finish up my rooms and the information here is priceless. Herb, keep up the good work. keep carrying Dave he needs the help :P

Lots of love from Australia!

[MitchellKoops]

this was amazing..love it!

[travsonic]

Wow. Wish there were 2 more hours of this. I collected so many notes I am going to try. Awesome show!

[marleycarroll]

What a great interview, it's awesome that Bob kind of directed the flow of conversation and was really passionate about getting some good info out there

[JoeyResly]

DYING for see the JJP episode btw..

[JoeyResly]

tons of great info... focal FTW haha...

[neopandorex2]

it sounds like one should adopt the same philosophy then with eqing...

love this episode.

[slimmivy]

Good stuff!

[NotImune]

where's the JJP episode gone??? That one was simply amazing!!!

[ultramouse]

This is a really meaty episode, thanks Dave/Herb/Will/Drew and thanks to Bob Hodas as well.

[ladex142]

I agree, this is easily the best episode yet!

It's packed with great information per minute; the guest did not hold back at all!

[saucer25]

Hey Dave! hey Drew! it's Sauce... Great show guys! but now i can't get any work done cause i get stuck watchin' this damn show hours at a time!

[bo0mk1d]

best show on youtube hands down! thank you

[DuckieTheAnk]

Best Show yet! And I've seen them all! (a couple of times)!

Regards

Anders Bothén, Sweden

[supersonixxx]

Great! Dave did you have a bad-hair-day?:-)

I love you anyway...

[lenstar87]

Great episode, very helpful...

[NotImune]

PS: This show was totally helpful! Initialy after the end of this episode I ran into my living room and changed the location of my home hifi speakers ^^ now It's a lot better actually: more defined pseudo center, better stereo image and a little less flabby bass.

Thanks guys!

[NotImune]

What about a ITL abou "Reverb and its uses in Mixing"? I know there was a little bit about reverb on the wideing technique ITLs, but I mean using reverb for depth, realism, separation and cohesion; the different kinds of Reverb etc.. Mr. Pensado uses the Bricasti and I'm sure he uses convolution reverb so he would be well prepared for such a show, wouldn't he?

[swinenorth77]

start at 41 mins

[1FranklynRecords1]

Thanks a lot guys - Really Helpful!!

[PJSGBC]

I totally disagree with the person who said this wasn't helpful. Just listening to someone who really knows what he is talking about is helpful for a new guy like me. It makes you conceptualize sound in a more tangible way as Bob explains. I wish Bob had just a bit more grace towards Dave (as Dave does his own guests), but his info was top notch. I have lots of changes to make in my office studio. Dave, you're the man. Your humility makes your info come across much more loudly!

[Jcinme1607]

most helpful thing he said imho though at one hour he says solo6be monitors by focal which i own. im done

[Jcinme1607]

ethan winer .com would acually help though

[Jcinme1607]

wasnt impressed. seems like nothing too specific was mentioned that was helpful. rather talk to auralex and or get software.

from what i have learned bass absorption is the biggest thing most should worry about

[Jcinme1607]

[AlexNiedt]

This was great info with great timing for me, as I'm preparing to build a new studio. However, I wish Bob would have mentioned the fact that he deals Focal products; it always bothers me when people fail to mention they're selling what they're recommending. Makes me wary...

[4DJAO]

Yeah..... New Pensado's Place!!! Made My Day. 

[mixinginthebox]

lots of good info thanks.

[zany4rhymes]

In between I love this show.. Always learns a Thousand Pounds worth of ideas on each episode.

Thanks DAVE, HERBS, DREW and the rest of the CREW...

GRACIAS !

[zany4rhymes]

Hi guys KRK ERGO does this job perfect... Since I started using it in my untreated room it changed my mix for good.

Before I keeps rolling of my bass cos they seem too much but since the ERGO once it's on Focus Mode I hear exactly how small by bass is.

[gonzz2]

"I forgot my other Question D.!!!..." hehehehehe hilarious...

[smokey5100]

D Pen!

[rollingcube]

P.S. I measured the length between my rear wall and each speaker and moved the L monitor back six inches which seems to have a most excellent effect on the imaging in this new room I'm in! :) ;)

[rollingcube]

wow, its so hard to make a room heading towards a perfect listening space, where does using a mix in the headphone work with all this? Like between the monitors and the 'space' in the headphones? Is this really a true compromise?

[mcbublick]

i usee room EQ wizard for my measuring.

[shawnguess]

i like how Herb always bounces his leg when he talks so his whole body gyrates, lol

[yeahboy67]

Excellent stuff, thanks a lot!!!!!

[bruhens]

Great hair Dave!

[KeithForde]

Great stuff, thanks guys!

[russleroq]

What about his thoughts on the Software like ARC?? Does he recommend them, do they work? Obvious question that wasn't asked??

[anksforever]

pensados place is the place to be.. cheers dave!!

[theDrumkilla]

WOW! So much info! Thanks a million for doing these.
