JJP is more a preacher than „just“ an engineer. What an incredibly humble and inspiring man. Thanks for this, Warren.

i also watched him when he was talking with Dave Pensado. Really a unique personality that i would love to have as a friend, co- worker. He has some similarity to Larry David and other jewish people- that depth of detail and humanity - it makes others look formal and fake. For some reason i love jewish people ( Seinfeld, Ben Stiller , etc ) 3 Hours ? it' s gold. Will be a classic with 1 million views. Thanks !

This is just a brilliant interview and Warren has a knack to connect with JJP and audience on so many dimensions I will have to replay this video at least 5 times for all the concepts to sink in. One of the those is that of 'Preset Culture' which I think a good analogy would be the shift from analog 'don't touch anything' synths of the seventies to eightys digital synths. So right now we would be in the Vince Clark era...Preset Culture has yet to mature. Also I made a hardware plug in that produces that tight new roomy kick that came up in the conversation which I will be posting on my channel for anyone interested which could just be that next big thing.

As you know we talked with Roger Manning extensively about the Jellyfish albums that JJP made and we waxed lyrically about how incredible they sounded! Who would you like to hear from next?

I will always say Mr Puig’s work on Weezer’s Pinkerton is the most perfect mix for any record. It’s not hifi or clean, but its grittiness and overt saturation just perfectly matches the tone of the songs. The man is nothing short of a genius.

Jesus Christ that left me speechless. First time I ever found myself clapping alone in my room while this interview wrapped up. Simply the most well rounded and level headed interview I've ever seen in the audio world. Very powerful and affirming...makes you feel reassured that you're on the right path, and for the right reasons. "The day you wake up and feel like going to the beach, that's the day your career is over.."-JJP I couldn't have summed it up any better.

Dave Pensado is the wizard of mixing. Manny Marokin is the proudest of mixing, Tony Maseratti is the machine of mixing, CLA is the illusionist of mixing, Warren Huart is the joy of mixing.

It would be fantastic if you get an interview with Jimmy Page. Guitarist, producer and probably the only artist/producer with the mastertapes still in his possession. That would be a treat Warren.

Gotta say that, these interviews are priceless. Usually people do 10 - 20 min interviews and try to make it entertaining for the viewer making it "inorganic". Warren however just manages to make it super casual and honest, as if he's having a discussion in the morning with a cup of coffee... I guess the same profession and interests make the chemistry go through the roof and that makes him guide the discussion well. Can't thank you enough for these videos :)

Ha !!! I did a vocal track a few weeks ago... Warmed up my voice on the way to the studio (10 minute drive), played trombone and trumpet for 30 minutes to get my “air, buzz, relax” going. Sang the song first an octave lower to get the vibe, timing, and again warm up. Finally ready, I kicked the crap out of it, sang the song about 5 times...saved, went home, started to mix and realized that the interface had never engaged and all that work ended up being recorded by the internal mic on my computer. Aaaaarrrrgggghhh !!! I haven’t had the heart to go back and try to sing that song again. And it’s weird because I ALWAYS do a quick listen back, but for some stupid reason I didn’t that day.

JJP hit the nail on the head immediately: The question is not "how" but "why." Fantastic!

This is the content you can't get anywhere else. There's so much information and wisdom in these videos. Thank you thank you thank you Warren!

I’m a doctor, I’ve been doing what Jack does for 40 years. Adapting. Like no two songs, no two patients are ever the same . Some need more compression, some less and some 2. Only practice tells you which. I bought Jack’s Puigchild compressor from waves and used it exclusively on everything for about 1 month. It was only when I moved to another compressor that I knew what the Puigchild did. I use one drug on someone for arthritis, it doesn’t work. A similar drug does. Why? Who knows? After a while ( about 10 years) the history from the patient influences your first choice ever more accurately. Time is the conqueror, but also the teacher.

Hi James Schaffner thanks ever so much!! You Rock!!

I was in one of those Christian Bands that JJP talked about when he worked at Martin Sound in the mid 70's. We locked out the small studio "B" and JJP would drop in often to talk and check things out. He was a great guy even back then. I have always followed his career (from a distance) and am still amazed at how great an engineer, producer and humble person he has become. Thanks for the in-depth interview. Took me back to some old memories -- as well learning so much new.

SO inspiring hearing you two talking... That's exactly the kind of reality check I needed today, being in the middle of a big struggle trying to finish a really complicated project involving me as a an arranger and a recording, editing and mixing engineer... Of course, that wasn't supposed to happened... A million thanks for that! Have a really wonderful day! :-D

This may be the best conversation you've recorded yet Warren, and not just for producers and engineers. All musicians would benefit from listening, especially to the discussion of artist development. Thanks to both of you!

The reassuring thing about JJP, is that if you asked him if he wanted to help you record something, he seems like the type of guy to ask what you had in mind and actually help you. No questions about price, no question about publicity or credits, he would just hop right in and get busy with you. A true character. Ahead of his time. Thank you Warren, amazing work as always.

I'm filled with gratitude. Thank you both both so much.

What a fantastic interview. Really enjoyed this one Warren. What an interesting guy to listen too. Kept looking at all the gear In the background. Amazing. This is my favourite interview. This guy talks so much truth about music. How we all, associate music with events that happen in our lives. I'm an 80s man, to me... Its the best music in the world.

This is such an incredible interview. Jack has so much perspective. I feel like I’m sitting at the feet of a master.

I've just watched this again to be sure I've absorbed it all. I'm saving it so I can come back to it when needed. This was frigg'n beautiful. My already massive respect for JJP has just quadrupled.

I could listen to JJP talk about mixing, recording, music, and life in general all day. Which is why I’m watching this for the 3rd time. So inspirational. Every time I hear him talk I want to run into the studio.

One of the best interviews I have viewed. Spacious,calm and intellectual. Thanks much for this.

One of my top regrets in life was not taking the opportunity to assist/intern for JJP in 1999. As a working engineer and mixer today I can see from this interview that my path would have been fast tracked. This is great stuff as well as his MMW vids.! Thanks Mr. Huart.

To me, this is the most inspiring interview you've ever done, Warren. Thanks to you and to Jack Joseph Puig.

Thank you for this. I first heard JPP outside of his sonic work via Pensado’s place. His words on the midrange changed my entire perception of mixing, AND listening to music in general. I’m 40 and now I have a whole other life to hear the sounds of music differently.

I return to interviews like this one- every year.

Whenever I see his room, I just marvel at the cabling and connectivoty complexity that must be hidden there ... i had trouble figuring out a basic couple of racks and mixer ..

This conversation is pure gold. Amazing!

This episode is a gem. J.J.P. is awesome. I love his philosophy and the way he talks about his profession. And thank you Warren for all the things you share with us. There are so many channels that teach how to mix a kick drum or heavy guitars. Just a couple deal with a broader view on mixing. Only very few give deep insights to the art of music production on each level to show the complete picture. Your channel is definitely one of the very few ones.

Thanks so much Warren. You are just so on fire at the moment with these interviews - Jack Douglas and JJP - these were practically life changing for me because they were all about insight, not just information. i started recording at home in about 1985/6 on a 4-track Tascam portastudio (4 track to cassette tape). In New Zealand then the only time I ever even got to read a copy of Sound on Sound (and didn't even know it existed before) was because the band i did live sound for spent $10,000 to make 3 songs in a major studio and they had a library of imported mags like that. No internet, just about no books, no music documentaries - i'm sure most younger people have no idea what a blessing your interviews are and what it used to take to scour meagre resources to learn a tiny fraction of what was covered today. And how generous for JJP to spend 3 hrs sharing. Let me know if you're up for a knighthood - I'll vote for you. Thanks Sir Warren.

One of the greatest conversations about record making I’ve ever heard.

I love Love LOVE the sound of the Puigchild! Well done Jack! Thank you for this interview Warren!

What an absolute marathon of an interview! Before watching this, my favourite videos had been the Michael Beinhorn stuff, love that guy. This was something else though, just wow - mesmerising! He talks so much sense and leaves no stone unturned. His name should be the definition of thorough. Unassuming, humble, thoughtful, very rare in a guy of his stature - so great to see. So much content here, it took me 3 sittings to watch the whole thing, there was just so much to take in and comprehend. Excellent! Thanks for this Wazza & co. - very inspiring...

Thank goodness someone is making the argument that sound matters in mobile and home devices. The sound is pretty bad right now. I watch youtube on my pc through real speakers..lol

JJP is my spirit animal..what a human!!!

That was fantastic! Thank you for this. I was riveted for the duration. Plus, I watched it immediately after watching your other video with the studio tour of Jack's studio. It was like a 5 hour Jack Joseph Puig marathon. I'm very lucky to have had Jack mic my drums live back in the mid seventies. Then, soon after that, my first time in a pro studio, I was at Whitney Studios where Jack recorded the band I was playing in. The sound on the drums was just plain amazing. Of course, I was very serious about my drum sound even back then. And my drums sounded great to begin with. I remember he used 57's on the snare and toms. It was an Ampex 16 or 24 track machine. I can't say that I've ever got as good a recorded drum sound as that. They were big and fat sounding. Very saturated dry. And very 70's R&B. Anyhow, I agree with the other comments here. I love the depth of this interview and the emphasis on the creative aspects. The art. And the personal cost. So inspiring. I'll definitely watch it again.

i could have listened to three more hours of this. thank you both for taking the time and sharing your experiences, wisdom and humility!

Whatever there was to say - emanating from either of you - was debated and explored beyond gear and geekery right into the heart and philosophy of music making, human interaction and society. And just how many quotable words of wisdom does JJP have?!? Your best yet, sir, and hands down right up there with the very best discussions about music in the ether. Bravo

Thank You Warren, and Thank You Jack Joseph Puig, may God bless You Both and Your Family's Always. Nowhere else except here on "Produce Like A Pro" do we get the true essence of what it is to be alive & feel the need to create, and with real guidance and lessons about ways to do it, whilst having a "Marvelous Time".

It took me 3 days to watch this. WOW! The record-making conversation really made me think of FEEL in performance with bands. It is what Michael Beinhorn talks about in his book Thinking Creatively. Thanks, Warren for these interviews. This is why I am still subscribed because you are talking about production and how that looks like in the studio.

Hi Warren, great video mate. Jack Joseph Puig is such an inspiration to many myself included. The preset generation! I love it! But it is also very true and I think for many of us who use plugins using say a JJP plugin or an Andrew Scheps plugin from Waves or something similar from another plugin company would be best practice. I say this because it is as if you are using the hardware. You have knobs and sliders and a VU metre and you have to use your ears! If it sounds right it is right as a famous Jazz musician once said. This was such an interesting conversation between the both of you and I took in a lot from it. As Jack Joseph Puig said he admires your channel because of the content and the way you convey your information Warren. I second that too as this really is the best audio recording and mixing channel out there. Cheers mate from sunny Purley! :-)

Thank you for this!! That was wonderful!!
