Mick Guzauski - a true master. Had a brief conversation with him at MixCon in NYC. Really nice and humble guy for someone with such a successful career.

this is one of the best episodes yet, he reveals everything he can remember, is genuine and has no problems doing so! good stuff

You can actually see the joy in his face as he talks about the Daft Punk record. Pure love for what he does! Absolute respect for Mick, true talent!

One of the greatest mixers of all time, imho. His work on pop ballads is untouchable. Hope Dave and Herb have him back soon!

Man. Truly one of the smoothest and nicest albums I have heard in a hell of a long time!

This guy is so enthusiastic about music! You can just tell he loves doing what he do.

Thank for having Mick on the show!! One of my favorite episodes...

Love dropping by Pensado's place! Keep up the great work guys :)

his catalog is impressive. highest respect to mick. what a funny and cool guy ontop!

I can't even tell you how much I love this show! You guys could keep talking for another 10 hours and I would listen.

Mick is a Genius, a master at what he does and has an undeniable passion for his craft! I have known him since the late 70's, and can say, he was destined for greatness from the start! This interview is incredibly generous of Mick, sharing these gems of engineering and mixing!! I hope all will realized that!! Congrats to Mick for another mega hit!!!

This dude is like top 5 all time!! talk about an amazing ear and touch🤗

BIG shout to MICK!!! love this guy!!!! look at him all excited about his passion, truly amazing guy!!!

Phooo! To all those people who hate on people with stuttering saying it shows stupidity, I believe this had the most amount of collective stutters yet most knowledgeable conversation. Awesome stuff, 3 years later.

anyone else think these videos are underrated? Thank you so much for the work you all do!

Simple is useful, Mick Guzauski transmits passion for mixing, Pensado's Place is the best audio show ever. Thank you guys :)

I've heard from him in the past saying, work in 15 minute increments then take ear breaks (our hearing becomes compressed after about that time). Also pick yourself up a Sound Level Meter, if you have not, they're rather inexpensive (Radio Shack). Maximum mixing levels should be below 85dBs.

Probably one of the best episodes I have seen to date. Mick is just so humble, but very forthcoming with his knowledge and techniques. His portfolio is amazing and I am grateful that he made it on the show. Now to get back to making some more music so I can practice and develop upon his techniques!

Thank you guys so much for doing this show.

Wow that is truly an INCREDIBLE MIX ... massive bottom end reverb delays ... Thank You Dave for telling me about this Song (My All) and Mix Engineer Mick.. Great Show Guys

Dave this is a great video, Mick is one of the best engineers out there and the GS-3A Monitors are just out of this world accurate and powerful.

Thanks guys, another great episode.

Thanks for Pensado's place! It takes me about three hours to watch one episode because I'm checking out the songs that are mentioned, searching various terms and equipment used and opening my own mixes to try different techniques. Invaluable source of mixing and general recording info. Thanks again!

Incredible Guest!! Great Show!!! Thanks For The Shortcut Tips Too Dave! God Bless

A Real Sound God... I was truely humbled today. Amazing insights on vocals

Genius 👏🏻

...Mike Wazowski?

Amazing interview. I've just discovered this channel and it's fucking mind-blowing. Every single video is gold and I can use all the information. But the best thing is that there is context to everything.

One of the best Pensados Place yet!

what a show guys! great discussions on EQ desser... never realised that there could be so much to an desser. absolutely brilliant guys cheers. peace.

Great interview... Mick is awesome

dave i am very grateful fro this show. the knowledge that is you're providing ,most of us would not be able to aford if we had to pay for it,so thank you once again cause knowledge is power but sometimes costly .

WOW! this episode was a two year course.Please don't make us wait too long for a return.the best batters box in long time. it's all about the details. i wish all your guest would put a quarter of detail like mick did. thank you. killer show. this one is now in my top 5.

Congratulations on the book deal. Can't wait til its released.

amazing insight on an amazing album from an incredible engineer

Amazing show this one! Thanks

Mick had THE BEST batter's box out of all your guests!!!

that shortcut tip is exactly what i wanted cheers dave!!

He seems like such a fun person to be around

Amazing and special tip on the keyboard shortcut. Just made my F19 the show/hide detail view in live, pressing 3 buttons was driving me nuts, thanks !!!!

I love the Island hardware n software thing! Great show what a nice guy too :D Thanks again everyone! :D still waiting Max Martin/ Hans Zimmer/ Bob Clearmountain and would love to hear more from Phil Tan, That episode was one that sticks out in my mind as one of the best :D

Amazing episode. Mick seems very warm and generous.

BEST EPISODE in a while!!

Fabfilter plugins are really amazing, I've been using them for some time, but it's nice to see more and more of "the big guys" use it. Thanks for another great episode!

great job guys! really enjoy watching your show, keep it up!

Fantastic, thanks.

Loved it thanks guys

Did not know Mick, but thanks for open my knowledge much more. :)

Great stuff, digital and analog tracking!

Great show guys!

I can't complain about any of the guests you have, because this is such a great resource for all of us. Having said that, I wish you would have more guests like Mick. I love hearing the masters share their wisdom. These are my heroes (including Dave of course) who mixed music back when it sounded incredible to me. Now, here is my very selfish request that I have no right to make. Is there any way you could get Elliot Scheiner? Ok, I feel guilty for asking. Thanks for all you are doing!!

love this

seeing the thumbnail i knew this was gonna be more technical than usually. love it!

Great guest and show.

really amazing

He seems like such a great guy. Plus he mixed my favorite record (Yellowjackets- Like a river)

Best episode ever.

THAT DAFT PUNK CD" RAM" THAT MIXING WAS SOMETHING, GREAT JOB MICK GREAT JOB I AM INSPIRED.

Fantastic

I noticed it too. Thanks for fixing!

30:24 Best tip of the whole interview by Dave Pensado! Use the snare as a guide/reference for the vocals.

But what if you only do indie/cajon music? Pensado left me hanging.

Thanks a ton bruv!

I liked that he said it was a LIVE BAND mostly for this song!

Legend

wow, cheers for that Will !

The right side of a stereo track feeds gets processed and then the processed signal is panned to the left, and vice versa so that the effects seem "wider"

One of my favorites so far! Amazing insight into the new Daft Punk record. If I may make a request, I'd love to see a prominent metal producer like Adam Dutkiewicz (Killswitch Engage, As I Lay Dying) or Devin Townsend (Lamb of God, August Burns Red)...If metal's just not your thing, I totally get it but itd be a fun contrast and a particular interest of mine. Cheers.

Damn u killed this into the lair! Simple but effective! Jeez

i got slow net . watchin in 144p ryt now..and um havin a hard tym makin out hu's dave and hu's mick !!

Nerding out hardcore! lol!

Loved the part on sibilance. Gotta try it out.

you're right!

Totally agree!

dear Mick Guzauski, is there an item about depth,almost 3Dsound i hear in certain well-produced mixxes? i suppose you have to have very specialised hardware outboard gear? or can one achive this also with plugins? grtz marcel bosscher, netherlands

could anyone name the homework thing for me? i didnt understand what he was trying to say as my english isnt first lang. Thanks!

Can someone explain what he means by "Right one feeding Left, Left one feeding Right" at 24:37 please? I'd appreciate it a ton!!!

dave, u should have a quick into the lair ep. on ear protection and the prevention of hearing loss. perhaps discuss listening levels and yearly visits to the ENT for checkups? just a thought...

Great to go back to this now that Daft Punk is no more

And to think this came out the same exact day as Random Access Memories

Hey, let's not forget Mick engineered the great Chuck Mangione album Feels So Goo, and also (I think.....) Live at the Hollywood Bowl. Classics.

Dannnnnng, this boys a Tawkin FOOlllllllll!!!!! The mouth from the south for sure.

Question for Dave or anyone for that matter. If you find out your monitors lack certain frequencies. for an over exaggerated example. between 90hz n 200 are down by about 5db. could you put an eq on your output to compensate for the lack of frequency response? then remove the eq when bouncing. theoretically it kinda sounds right? Just I can't afford baddass monitors yet. Thankssssssssss !!!! :D :D :D :D hope u understand what I'm trying to say haha XD

"The world has enough studio monitors, why do yours exist?" Best question I have ever heard :D :D :D :D

Hey, is Ken Lewis too busy to be interviewed?

34:12 Batter's Box!

I made a quick video response to illustrate the EQ principle Mick describes starting at 25:42 It's titled "Approximated Baxandall Curve"

Why F19 and not ctrl-s?

The show is amongst other things primarily about engineering (with everything that entails). My ears, sharpened by watching nearly all episodes, detected a detail that should be improved and I mentioned it. Has nothing to do with how much work is being put in the show or how much experience the team has. You failure to grasp that and especially your outrage over my request and your feeling of having to "defend" the show while there is NO ATTACK in the first place, SHOWS your immaturity.

yeah i want scott storch too!

Hot Damn! I'm bout to set F9-F11. Collect&Save-Bounce.

Mixers rule. When I go to an outdoor concert and the middle section is occupied by the sound man on risers with giant-sized boards, moving sliders up and down for as many as 20 musicians (i've seen the same with neophytes who use an iPad and virtual sliders)--I'm filled with a mixture of dread and awe because what I hear has as much to do with the mixer as with the musician. (I'm someone who can no tolerate most of my Alfred Lion Blue Note discs because of the "Rudy Van Gelder piano"--Masterpieces like "Kind of Blue" and "Time Out" could have been made only in a spacious studio with engineers sensitive to the individual touch of a pianist. RVG's records bring every instrument to the front, brightm deep and clear--but at a cost. Some of the instruments are distorted, and the space is flat, not 3-dimensional. RVG means hard bop played with lots of fire but no ambiance or depth. Roy DuNann (Capitol, then Contemporary) captured a different sound from the same instruments.

how can you eq the sends in pro tools? I always eq on the bus on which the reverb is

In regards to "Get Lucky" it would have been interesting to hear what exactly the 2 Daft Punk guys role was. Somehow it sounds like most intruments were played by studio musicians, so what was their contribution actually ?

You mean besides writing the music, planning the album, coming up with the theme and feel of the album, performing their parts, and managing the entire process so their creative vision comes to life? You are right, I wonder what they were really doing for those 4 or so years working on this thing. We gotta get to the bottom of this.
