  • DO PEOPLE JUST DISLIKE JUST TO DISLIKE?!

  • @Phattazzass The secret weapons of today are the plugins>most some have Hardware counterparts, and they sound almost identical. Waves are my choice of plugins>but I mix 100% in the box>every mix>no Hardware at all>There are tricks and techniques you can use to achieve that analogue sound.

  • As far as some doubting that Manny mixes with plugins, I worked with Grammy Award winning mix eng, Leslie Brathwaite, he mixes prob 40% of the hip-hop & r&b records out, & he almost exclusively uses plugins. Along with some SSL 9000 board eq. It's being done more than most cats think.

  • uhm... his mouth... makes these sounds... why?

  • Sure he got all the nice Hardware EQ´s from Neve, SSL etc. and then he uses PlugIns. No way I believe that.

  • Wow This guy knows wat's up man.

  • @ShortScopeBoy Hi Jimmy Iovine. Nice of you to join this channel!!!

  • This guy must be pretty rich

  • Not to piss on the parade-But it looks like he is mixing all stems?

    Not much of a challenge-I'd say

    I don't think I would be able to tell the difference on an mp3 player if MM mixed

    it or a student!

  • @ShortScopeBoy thats really true man.... I just completed a mix...and I know it will be heard on mp3 formats and soundcloud.... and what not... crappy headphones... but thats why you must mix for those standards too...
