Metric Halo Mixhead | The Most Overpriced, Overhyped & Pointless Plugin of 2024
Want to know how and why Serban Ghenea REALLY used the SPL machine head? ... Sorry, but your gonna be extremely underwhelmed :( .. its not even that much of a secret!
MSaturator Settings for other mixhead mixbus presets (deepest nulls)
I = INPUT, O = OUTPUT, F = FADER VOLUME
(remember to set analog to 0.1%)
AB 2BUS
I (-2.2) O (-0.6) F (0)
BAINZ.
I (-3.95) O (-0.1) F (0)
CA GLUEMY2BUS, CB MIXBUS FIXER, DE MIXBUS
I (-1.95) O (-1.1) F (0)
CA GLUEDMY2BUS2
I (0) O (-2.5) F (0.1)
MIX BUS MEAT
I (1.45) O (-4.7) F (-0.1)
JL MIX BUS.
I (-0.5) O (-2.35) F (0)
DS REAL EXPENSIVE ELMERS GLUE
(When output is pushed really far it enables a hard clipper so you need to enable MSaturators compander)
I (-3.1) O (0) F (-0.1)
Compander - 72% wet, attack & release to fastest, threshold (-55.2)
For HF adjust try a linear phase bell at 14.5khz with a Q of 0.6. Pretty much cancels it out
My name is Paul Third and I am a Scottish youtuber / audio engineer / mixing engineer / audio geek. I mostly cover audio engineering related content ranging from audio plugin shootouts / plugin comparisons (acustica audio plugins, universal audio etc etc) to actual analog vs digital / gear vs plugins plugin tests via access analog and mix analog. I even include ddmf plugindoctor tutorials in my plugin reviews so you can be your very own plugin tester and experiment and understand whats actually going on under the hood.
All of my content is produced in Presonus studio one 6 which is my main daw and in terms of my audio interface I record and monitor through a universal audio apollo x6 through topping dx7 pro+ dac/amp and use a Lauten Atlantis for all of my voice overs.
