Hey, guys!
Welcome to the M&H studio
my name is Michel Marcos and today I'm here to talk about
a subject that has been a long time that I wanted to make a video talking about
It's about impulses
What is "IMPULSES"?
Impulse is...
let me explain in a simplified way
Impulses is a .wav file
that is loaded in a reader
called Impulse Loader
that will give you a virtual representation of either ambience, speaker or reverb
Nowadays in the music business
there are free VST plugins
that sound realistic and cool
well modulated
Far better than paid plugins from big companies
So... look at these examples:
LePou, Nick Crow Lab and TSE Audio
These are 3 brands which provide free plugins
that I consider of a satisfactory quality
Emphasizing that this video was not made to talk about digital and analog
We know that... Come on
The amp was made for those who have a large studio
And the plugin was made for those who have a home-studio, a midsized studio
It is the resource indicated for those people who have no money
Now, let's take a look at what we're using in our project here in the studio
Ok?
I'm here at M&H Studio, right?
As I said before, this is my project
at... Cubase
The standardized program that I use in my Studio is the Cubase
And here we have the tracks
The tracks we have here
Look here the vocal tracks
Look here the vocal tracks
This song is not mixed
Here there is nothing like it has to be done
I just beat around the bush to show you something useful
So...
Here at the guitar
I'm using a plugin from TSE Audio
From Ignite Amps, I'm using the head NRR1
It should simulate a Mesa Boogie or a modern amp
And my Impulse Loader
is the mixIR 2 from Red Wirez
And the Impulse that I recommend buying
is the Messiah Pack
You visit the Critical Cabs website and purchase this Impulse
Right?
So, basically
The great secret is the order that the IMPULSE is placed
Here we have two guitar tracks
And I added some plugins
A Noise Gate
The TSE
The NR
The Red Wirez
The noise gate I'm using comes in PodFarm2
Right?
This noise gate is awesome
You should use it if you want a comfortable sound
Let's stop stalling and get down to business
In this list you will find many high-quality tones
Reminding that this plugin will affect only the guitars tracks in this song
The vocals, drums and solo guitar are apart
Do not forget that the order the plugins are added define the final quality
In this track I have the noise gate, the pedal, the head...
and also ... let me talk to you...
Most of the Impulse free plugins are of horrendous quality
And because of such poor quality, I do not advise using
The ideal is to acquire a high-quality Impulse and appeal to you imagination
your guitaristic gift
I'm not a guitar player, but I played the guitars in this song just to test
now that I have a seven-string guitar ... right?
I get nuts with heavy metal
So, I recorded this song only because I think that
If I can't take the heavy and the quality that I like
Why to sell this service to my clients?
I'll put in the video description the link to the website of each of these companies
And let me talk...
Buy this plugin from Red Wirez, it's very cheap
All the others are freeware
The Impulse was done to help and not to replace a tube amp
But I admit that sounds very similar
I know people who have tube amps
And the plugin sounds very close to the real
All this will from purism
Perhaps you have a large studio, it worth buying a real amplifier
A good amplifier and ludicrously expensive
The quality comes from your creativity
And from the equipment available at the moment
No use having delusions of grandeur
start buying an amp that costs US$10,000
and not having a preamplifier, not having a microphone, not having an appropriate room ...
You can believe that in your room the sound will not be good
Unless you are a creative genius
And I don't dismiss this possibility
Because there are guys around the world
doing things that leave me really scared
So it's this
here's the project
I showed you the order that the plug must be inserted
And for those who find it easy, this video was a light
for those who reverses the orders
for those who lump together everything
raising the drive madly
for those with seven-string guitar with a good pickup
you can not increase the drive or your notes will be filthy
and the notes will not have neither a definition
So, it's it, right?
Stay now with the song that I named "Stay Alive"
of the band I have with Daniel, called "Scars of Time"
We hope you like
Thank you
If you liked the video, like it
and we can exchange an idea.
Thanks.
