Rob is a wonderful guy

I dig how the things mentioned as tools are all approachable (if not duplicatable with other tools) and none of it was mystified. It proves that it is Rob's (and Warren's) skill and ear that gets the job done. It is helpful because it means we can work on that and maybe not blame a lack of some magic tool we need. Thanks!

Yes, I believe very strongly in using tools that make sense! I have a couple off 'expensive' plug ins that I use, however they aren't irreplaceable.

Audience perspective for an upright piano is... generally the same as player. An upright is usually against the wall, so bass is left and treble right for everyone. Grand piano, of course, is different - but not opposite. Audience perspective for a grand piano is more or less mono if you think of it. How many performances have you been to - whether rock/pop band, sonata, or solo recital - where a piano was situated on stage in any configuration besides profile? Otherwise nobody can see the pianist lol. Sometimes it's tilted a little bit, like 20° or so, where the bass keys would be a *little* left (actually this config is perfect if you need to keep sub-250 in the center) and highs skew a bit left in the stereo field. You can tell I've thought about this way too much. 🤣

The mainstream mixing community seems to keep overlooking some really great reverbs the orchestral community uses. They should try out LiquidSonics Cinematic Rooms Pro. You can place an instrument in a room with one instance and then use another instance for the reverb. Should you need 5.1. 7.1, or 7.1.6, it can do that too. Another overlooked reverb would be the LiquidSonics Seventh Heaven Pro - which is really an IR of the Bricasti M7. I know it sounds like I'm pointing out reverbs from just one company, but there is a reason these reverbs are used so much in movie and trailer soundtracks.

Thanks for sharing! Not sure what the mainstream mixing community is though! Haha If there is one I"m certainly not a part of it! Haha I use Seventh Heaven, so do most of the major mixers I know! Cinematic Rooms Pro does get some love, however, Seventh Heaven is very heavily used in Rock/Pop/Country/Hip Hop etc.

@@Producelikeapro Well, I was going to say rock, but that seemed way too focused. I'm still at a loss as to what to exactly call it, but I meant "non-orchestral". My point is very few mix engineers interviewed ever mention either of those reverbs. By the way - your book is excellent. You can tell a lot of effort was put in.

Rob is one cool dude. Real gentleman. Thanks very much for the great interview.

Hey I play piano for like 45 years but I never knew there was an audience perspective... doesn't that depend on where the piano stands? Grandpianos usually have the bass strings at the back... But when you play an upright, it's usually against the wall, and there audience = player perspective - bass is on the left... ???

@Ultimate_Wasabi

Жыл бұрын

The audience perspective for a grand piano is more mono than the player perspective due to what you said above. Not sure about the upright as the only time I used one in my music it was heavily processed samples. Older recordings from the 50's like Arthur Rubinstien used player perspective a lot. Personally, I prefer it, but then I play piano so . . .

@realraven2000

@@Ultimate_Wasabi yeah that makes sense. Interestingly many e-pianos give you players perspective and then you need to mess with combined panning to set in the mix.

@urltom

Жыл бұрын

I totally agree. I think he must have misspoken. The only way it could have popped out of the mix is if he heard high notes on the left. This could have happened recording a grand with the 'left' mic pointing to the high notes. Should probably label the mics 'piano hi', 'piano lo'.

Great video with GEMS

Interesting. Most mixes I’ve ever heard the drums are audience perspective, mixers who are drummers like to pan drummer perspective. For piano most mixers prefer low to high as they would while sitting in front of a piano
