Ironically EQ is the most important factor determining the tone of saturation. Balancing a sound before and after distortion is the most important technique for getting a good tone. In this video I talk about some of the theory and methods for sculpting a sound so that it sounds good distorted.

Dude, please produce more content. Your videos are so well done. You're not just spouting out a bunch of super basic production tips, and you can actually manage to explain complex topics in a very clear way. Keep it up, man!

I really love the level of detail you put into your videos. You really are adding something to the music prod youtube game. Here's some contribution :) Please carry on! We need more people daring to say things like "Saturation and EQ don't commute".

It seems rare to come across a channel suited for learning concepts above a basic beginner level. I hope you continue making these videos! You are an excellent teacher and illustrate concepts in a clear visual and verbal way. Good job!

It is incredibly refreshing to find a channel where the presenter has an deep intimate knowledge of the topic their discussing, rather than giving surface level hype without the goods to back it up. This week alone I've seen this topic covered by Eric Valentine, Recording Lounge podcast, and now you. Each with your own unique take on the matter. You absolutely nailed it here, please please keep it up!!

"Normally you wouldn't drive the sound this hard." Me, who mixes mostly metal: "But this one goes to 11"

This information blew my mind....AND confirmed a hunch I had: That somewere there is a guitar distortion sound no one has ever heard of. Now back to listening to it again for the nth time....!

It's so refreshing to see a channel that talks about the literal behavior of sound and how to manipulate it in an intelligent manner. I'm really tired of other tutorials that utilize the philosophy of "just use your ears". Like I get it, using your ears is important but I want to be informed on what exactly it is I am doing when I'm tweaking settings. That way I can make decisions based on actionable predictions and not have to be stuck in settings-tweaking-limbo banging my head, hoping, pleading that I miraculously land on some sort of useable tone that works well within my mix. Thank you for making such informative videos!

In utter disbelief at the quality of these videos. As a science-oriented musician, I appreciate the depth of your explanations. Knowing the why and the how is so important when making musical decisions. Thanks for posting (and for posting on r/edmproduction)!

Nice to see a video by someone truly knowledgeable. Too many reviewers out there don't really understand things and they use made up words and practices based on a misunderstanding of how things work.

You explain everything so thoroughly and clearly! Showing how chaining together multiple saturations and eqs turn into a guitar amp really helped me understand what a difference shaping the signal can have.

This is some rare knowledge. Makes me feel smarter already! The kind of stuff most producers never find out, thanks so much! Insane production value from the start and you're still keeping it up, respect.

This channel feels like the gateway between the basic "Top 10 Tips" tutorials and the Professional Masterclasses that go over my head. Thanks for the great content, man!
