In this episode of The Pro Audio Suite, brought to you by Tribooth and Austrian Audio, we dive deep into a fascinating discussion about microphones, mixing secrets, and the unexpected virtues of parallel processing in audio production. AP shares a surprising discovery he made with the Austrian AUdio OC 18 and his SSL2 interface, demonstrating how versatile equipment can mimic much pricier setups. The gang also discusses trends in vocal processing, the move away from flat-sounding mics, and the latest hot trends, from hot chicken to air fryers. Robbo ventures into the realms of advanced compression techniques, exploring how parallel compression (a mixing technique used widely in music circles) can add some punch to your voice recordings. Whether you're a newbie or a seasoned pro, this episode is packed with insights and laughs, offering valuable tips and tricks that could transform your next audio project.

Thanks to Tribooth, the golden handcuffs can be released as you travel with your Tribooth. And don't forget the code TRIPAP200 to get 200 off your Tribooth. Today we're going to be talking about, well, a few tips that we've learned over the years. probably should kick this off because I, uh, had a, made a discovery, [00:01:00] um, this week. Because I had a session, it was actually late last week, come to think of it. But it was a session I was doing with, uh, in the morning. And in the afternoon, as I just shut down the studio, I got an email saying, Oh, can you redo this line? And I thought, well, I can't be bothered firing it up again. So what I'll do is I'll use my laptop. through the SSL to out of the booth because I've got a mic in there that goes through there straight to the laptop. Yeah, firing everything up. And I've actually set it up with the 4k button switched in. So which mic is this again? The OC 18 OC 18. Okay. Got it. Yeah. So, I sent the file off and then I got the reply of the email saying, if you changed your, if you change your settings or something and uh because if you have, I like it better. Can you continue using whatever you're using now? Okay. So, what I I'd realize there's two things at play here. One was I've been playing around with uh the 41 six and the OC 818 because the [00:02:00] OC 818 was going through the Neve, the 1073, and the 41 six was going through the grace and I just changed them around just for an experiment and I forgot to change them back. So he was getting the 41 six through the name. So it was a bit more midi full. Yeah, creamy, chocolatey, whatever. Right. Um, but I changed them back the next time I said, I'll send you two files. I'll send you what you like today and I'll send you what you historically liked before. Uh, we've 41 six with the grace. But having said that the OC 18. Through the SSL2 with the 4K button pressed in. Sounds remarkably like a 41 six through the grace. So they stand in for each other. Extra high end boost. It's bizarre. But the thing is, I was kind of thinking, okay, so I see the stuff on these threads on Facebook all the time. Should I get this mic? Should I get that mic? What should I do here? Which one should I get? And it's always like, get [00:03:00] the, um, you know, the 41 one six and a TLM one oh three. My tip is get an OC 18 and an SLSL two. And then you've got both. You've got a large diaphragm without the 4k pressed in. And then you've got this hyper sort of 41, six sound with the 4k, but it's hard to beat. Yeah. It's hard to beat the versatility with that setup and well, not, it's not hard to beat it, but it's hard to do it that simply, you know, to have a single push button that essentially changes mics, you know, and then, and then with the button in there and then with the, yeah, with the, with the pattern switch on the OC 18, you have this proximity effect. Yeah. Changes, you know, you can change, you know, you're, you're good to go. into hypercardioid and it'd be pretty Yeah. But this thing, this is, this is it. This is the OC 18 with the 4K button pressed in. And you can hear, like, it's really, really cutting. It does sound like a Well, to me, it sounds I gotta say, I mean I'll bet, I'll bet one of the problems is you get too much into the [00:04:00] OC 18 because it doesn't have the long tube. So really, it's like you want to be here, but if you get away from the OC 18 with the same distance that you would be from the 4 41 6 and you put it in hypercardioid and pop in that 4k extra, you know, like mid range, high end. Yeah. And yeah, you'll be, you'll be getting to that cut through anything sound. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think we are so accustomed to not a flat sounding mic, right? Like we, the sound of voiceover is not a flat mic. Cause we, we moved away from a flat mic when we left ribbon mics, you know? It's the same with our food. Everyone wants like overly salted food. Yeah, or spicy. Dave's hot chicken. Hot chicken this, hot chicken that. You guys get the hot chicken trend in Australia? Oh, we get everything, yeah. Hot, hot, hot. The big, the big trend I reckon here, well, probably everywhere in the world is air [00:05:00] fryers at the moment if you're talking food, isn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The air fryer. I got one in my garbage. I don't want my air fried. Well, that's cool. So, so that's your kind of, I mean, you know, that's a pretty nice secret weapon. Now, I'm wondering what you would get out of the CC8 if you did the same exact experiment. That could be interesting. I should try that one. For travel. Uh, if you wanted to have a travel, uh, solution, yeah, but I've got the CC, the CC eight with the CC eight was sounding a lot like your OC eight one eight when it was in the porta booth. Wasn't it? It was in the portabooth. Yeah. In the portabooth and the car in the car and it sounded a lot like the OC eight one eight, which is like crazy. Yeah. It's very cool. I like it. You should change your name from Mr. Big balls to Mr. Rigg. I reckon. Okay. Mr. Rigg. Mr. Is that your tip? That's my tip. I like, I reckon that should have been your tip. That, that car one, that was, that still gets me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's amazing. And I, I did send that file off to [00:06:00] a guy called Chris Gates, who he's a bit of a fan of the show. He's an audio engineer here in Melbourne and he. I love the guy, but he's always cutting you off. Gatesy. Oh, there you can see the Chris Expander out there. Shut the gate, the horse is bolted. Yeah, that's right. Come on, Robert, give us this. Give us the source. Can I shit? I was hoping you wouldn't going to call me. Give us a source connect one. Yeah, just avoid airports. There's your tip. Traveling too much. I don't, what have I, um, ah, now I'm full screen. No, the pressure's on. I'll tell you what, I'll, I'll throw one out there and, and, and since I was going to do a plugin one, but listening to AP, um, Because the idea of this was we were going to do one about voiceover that we use every day.[00:07:00] Um, so there's one that, there's one that I use every day. That's probably a, it's, it's a musical thing, but I, and I don't know how much it's used in voiceover. Um, but a parallel, but a parallel bus on your voiceover. So when, when you're, when you're mixing something with voiceover, you get your, your voiceover set up nicely. Um, so that it's, it's, sorry, hang on one second. My, this is one of those things where I have very, very little experience with, which is parallel processing. Yeah. I've done a lot of parallel drum. I I'm very new to the, to the concept of parallel processing. So, so basically I'll go back. Cause I thought Pro Tools had stopped. That's all. Um, uh, I'll go back to the beginning. So mine's more of a musical thing. Mine's something that musicians use a lot. And, and George was, sorry, Robert was saying before, like [00:08:00] drums is a big thing where, where musical mixes will use parallel compression. But the idea is that you get your, your, For me anyway, you get your voiceover set up nicely so it's nicely compressed and sounding with a nice EQ. But then what you do is you send that track to, it can either be another track or a bus, whatever way you want to work. For me it's a bus because I've usually got layers of voiceover so I just send it to a bus. And on that bus you heavily compress. And you can manipulate ReaCue to whatever you want to do to get it to mix in. But the idea is that once you've got it set up and you've got that heavy compression going, you then drop that signal down, but then mix it back in so that it's just It's not there up front, but it's just making that voiceover lift and it's giving it that enough kick to punch through the music and sound effects and everything else that's going on. But because [00:09:00] that original signal is still fairly dynamic, you've got this other compressed one that's mixing in underneath that gives it enough punch to punch through. Does that make sense? I get it, I get it intellectually, I just, it's one of those like, it's like a tool, that's always been in the toolbox, but I've been afraid to Open it and use it. I don't know why. I just, I don't have that experience. You are doing parallel gating right now, except one of your gates is set to nothing. Yeah, that's true. I am mixing a mix of wet and dry. So, that's essentially what I'm, I guess that's what parallel processing is, right? It's pretty much. Some of the processing, some of the not. There's, there's those who argue that it's kind of like almost the same thing as just getting the right settings on the, Compressor and I've messed around with it And it seems like you can kind of get the same stuff But I would say that a parallel setup is way easier to dial in I can And you can get like some pretty, especially on drums, where like nothing ever falls too far away, [00:10:00] but it feels like you're never squashing the top. That's right. And it is just easy to get like, I've really only used it on drums, um, but most compressors these days, most plugins, even like the LA 2A copy of this, that, or the other thing, Almost every plug in manufacturer now puts a blend knob on the end of their compressors, it's so popular. So it used to be this trick, you'd set up the same processing on two channels, and you'd have to get the same latency so that they phase perfectly, and now it's like one knob. And most, most compressors do this. I mean, I'm used to parallel processing, quote unquote, of being something we use in, in, when we're dealing with reverb or delay. Because, of course, you need to have Dry, or if it's only reverb, there will be insanity, right? It would be unintelligible. It'd be Nick Cave. So I'm very used to Did you say it'd be Nick Cave? I said it'd be Nick Cave. Nick Cave is, he's super, super wet. [00:11:00] Right, right. Uh, reverb. His stuff is, am I right, Andrew? Like Is it Nick Cave? In what respect do you mean with Nick Cave? He's got a bunch of effects and stuff. Their mixes are like super reverb y. Super wet. Oh, God, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought you were making a joke because it sounds like he's in a cave. Maybe that's why he's in a church. You should do a cave recording, Robert. Um, so, um, yeah, so overly wet would be, uh, would be, uh, too much. So, so that I understand, I understand the concept. And so when we're talking about processing, we either talk about what? Serial or parallel. Is that where the, are that the two versions of Waze? Technically, yeah, it's like insert or aux send return is the way I think of it. But that's what's interesting now because a lot of insert plugins have a blend knob or a dry wet. Now they're really acting more like a parallel processor. Yeah, I don't, I don't find that quite as effective. And I, Robert said that before, and I would agree with him. I, I, there's something about the blend. [00:12:00] I think you can be more accurate with, with a, with it coming from another bus. You can, and it's easier to, if you've got a couple of, Plugins in blend mode, um, it's easier if it's on a separate bus, it's actually easier to, you know, if you need to, to ride it a little bit, it's easier to do that too, I suppose. It's easier to control. Maybe it's easier to automate. It's on a fader, I mean, it's, it's nice to have it on a hundred millimeter fader than a knob. I'll say that. But unless you're doing a setup where you're doing one heavy and one mild compression. But if you're doing one, like, the reason why I think it's less impressive on the, um, the, the blend knob, because most people set the compressor to not be too heavy. And then they only blend in a little of the straight, but really if you wanted to do more obvious parallel compression, you would put your compressor at, you know, 10 to one with a low threshold and crush it by 20 [00:13:00] decibels. And then you'd only blend in like 10, 5 percent of that compressed signal, that completely crushed signal. And the majority of it would be the dry. And then you'd have a natural sound with the, like that benefit of like, it just doesn't go down too far. Um, I'll tell you what I'll do. Do you play around with frequencies when you, when you're doing this stuff though? Because I, you know, like when you sort of get the stereo split and you're looking for gaps in frequencies where you can put a, you know, an EQ'd voice where it will sit and pop out. Is that what you're doing with this as well? Especially in radio imaging, I'll play with the EQ on that squashed parallel bus. Absolutely. Yeah. And the parallel bus itself will just like seem like you crush it enough, it'll seem like it loses low end. Because that's where like a ton of the energy is. So when the signal comes in and your brain is going like oh, I'm ready for that low end and the compressor goes nope, you're not going to get the volume. And then you hear the, [00:14:00] so compressors have a, can have an EQ like effect. I'll tell you what I can do. AP and I just finished a re launch package for a station in Singapore called 1FM. And we did a, we did a monster re launch promo, um, sort of, uh, you know, spruiking that the re launch was coming. And it's got this big operatic music happening underneath it and I've added in, you know, lots of impacts and whooshes and stuff to give it some movement and some, you know, Typical FM Gravitas. Um, but what I might do is, I'll put up a mix, I'll put a link in this video if you're on YouTube or in the show notes if you're listening to the audio one, I'll put it up on our website. Um, and I'll do a mix, I'll put the full mix and then I'll do a mix without the parallel bus. Uh, Uh, AP's voice and, and you'll just see how, how much it, it's [00:15:00] still there. You can still hear it, but the, the parallel bus, just when, when something impacts and hits, it's still sitting there. It's still right there in your face. That's the best way to explain it is to literally, I was going to ask you if you had examples of, of, of where they're being, but that would be a cool idea. I'll paste that up. Yeah. Yeah. The, the, the parallel compression thing is much more. Um, kind of known in, in drums, I'd say then using it on voice. I I'm sort of, it's something I haven't really talked about and I, and I do a podcast, um, on radio imaging with the guys from imaging blueprint who we've had on this show before. Um, but it's something that we never talk about. And I, and I was kind of interested to know, is it just me that does it on voice or is it, is it, is, is it sort of. I mean, I can't imagine, I don't really use it in, in commercial work, I suppose, unless I kind of, you know, unless you get to that point where you think, shit, this needs a bit more kick, but it's certainly not [00:16:00] on, on everything, but in it, I reckon I can't think of too many imaging projects that I've done. Done lately that I haven't used a parallel voice bus on, so. Yeah. Well, I'm in the comments. In the comments. If you use it, let me know. Yeah, yeah. I, I'm much more familiar with the concept of serial compression, in fact. Yeah. I, I don't even know if I still have it. I wish. I hope I do. Um, but I had this awesome, um. Compressor called the FMR Audio RNC, which stands for Really Nice Compressor. It's like a little third of a rack space deal, and they're like 200 bucks, but they punch above their weight. I mean, those are from like the early 2000s or something. Yes, yes, yes. So I used to have one of these and I had this in my mix bus quote unquote on my I used to do production mixing on set on film sets. So this was on your stereo master? Is that what you're [00:17:00] saying? Yeah, I had on my stereo master. That's a mono compressor. Did you have two of them? I can do stereo. Yep, it's got stereo, it's got two in, two out. Oh shit, I didn't remember that. Oh yeah, there you go. Cool. Two in, two out, and a sidechain. Yeah. So, um, so I would run that on my stereo bus, and then I would just press super nice, this button right here. And, what super nice does, and I think they explain it a bit, a little bit. RNC achieves high performance at a low cost by using a microprocessor to replicate or replace discrete side chain components. Um, so instead of having a lot of discrete parts, right? Resistors, diodes, things that make like an LA 2A. Amazing. Um, with chunks of software, thereby reducing the component cost. It still processes the main audio and analog, avoiding the problems associated with digital audio conversion. Even the problem of scratchy pots are avoided. No audio flows through the pots. Um, and so, and basically it's using [00:18:00] VCAs. Internally, right? Yeah. So it's this really interesting design of combining digital and analog, but what was cool about super nice is the really nice button. Do does it change? So what super nice did was, um, I did some reading about this while, when I first bought it, so 20 years ago, but what it did was you're, you're sequencing a series of compressors, so, and they're all at different ratios, right? So you can hit it harder and harder and harder. And it kind of hides the, um, coloring that you get from over compressing, you know, because st Doesn't that sound like a knee staging? Doesn't that sound like a knee where it, knee, I guess it does sound like a knee. Yeah. Gets you into it gradually instead of having just like a, like a point, it curves into the compression eventually where it's like flat. It's kind of a big complicated way of saying i's like, you do a soft knee. I mean, uh, I, I [00:19:00] guess. Talking, talking about radio imaging again, but for me, like, I don't have on, on my voice on Andrew's main voice track. If we go back to that promo that you'll hear an example of, um, there's not one compressor. There's, there's a sequencer plugin. So it comes in and it goes through, uh, uh, the first one is a CLA two way, which basically just takes everything that's sort of too sort of loud. Brings that down. Yeah. Then a bit of EQ and some other processing, but then it'll go through, um, the, um, Oh God, what's it called? Uh, another waves compressor. Anyway, it goes through that, but then that's got a bit of a faster compressor maybe. Uh, yeah. Sometimes I'll use the Renaissance, but the main one I use, I can see. See it, it's, it's, um, I'll put it in the show notes. Um, but it's got a faster attack and, and, and a, and a and a quicker release. So, yeah. Then that's just dealing with anything that's still a little too [00:20:00] hot and sort of bringing that down. And then in the, on the master bus for the voice where everything comes together, all, all the processing and, and, and the, yeah. parallel bus and everything, there's a bus compressor on there as well. So, so you sort of, it's the same idea by the sounds of it as what you're talking about, George is, it's not just a compressor, it's a series of compressors that give you a bit more control as you're shaping that, that waveform, I guess. Yeah. Cause I guess the guys, a lot of guys in music, they use like a 10, 70, uh, 10, um, LA to 1176, 1176. They'll use them both because they both do different things and they'll stack them together. But they're serialized. They're one and it's going through one and then it's going through the next. So I don't know if this is still going on with mastering, but um, at least 10 years ago, mastering engineers were starting to just clip the ADD converter just a little bit and clip this other thing just a little bit [00:21:00] and they weren't even, they were just literally purposely clipping things by half a DB. Yeah. And that's such a thing now that there are literally clippers. Yeah. Yeah. There are plugins that are clippers. Yeah. And, and also I remember the first time that I had anything mastered. So I did this recording on my cassette A track, mixed it down to dat. I was interning at, at what was it called? The classic digital mastering, which was funny because they did a lot of classical music too. But, um, so it's like, you know, like, They did a free mastering session for this thing. And the guy loads it into sonic solutions and then just, he's like, you know, he finds the peak and he's like, whatever, we're going to bump. Like I was, I hit it perfectly. I was like zero on the debt, you know? He's like, whatever, we're going to raise it up by like three or six. I'm like, you're going to clip it. And he's like, that's fine. They'll just be loud. That's it. Yeah. Just like, like there was no L one back then. It was just like, no, there was no maximizer at the top. Yeah. Okay. No, I is [00:22:00] one, um, the com, the compressor I like on ap. The second one, by the way, is the DPR 4 0 2, the blue one with the red LED lights that sort of go vertically. And you probably don't know it's in the wave. No, that's one of their newer ones. It's not an emulation or, or is it the b Yeah, it's an emulation. It is an emulation of hardware. 'cause I used to have a hardware one in a studio I used to work in. Yeah, it's what's what's the name of that company? bb. It's not BBE, but bb. Yeah, I think it is. BBE. No, it's not BBE because BBE makes the exciter that's like audio crack and it ruins your mix. I'm just, I'm looking in my audio suite, looking in my audio suite plugins and it doesn't say BBE, DPR, or anything like that. It takes your daughter out on a date. Here we go, hang on. Oh, I can't, can I share my screen? No, I can't. Oh, I think you can. Hang on, it's coming up. My poor old Mac's got Pro Tools running and four source connections going and God knows what else. It's [00:23:00] desperately trying to open the plug in. I was trying to show it earlier. Your Mac is buying fans off Amazon right now. Exactly. Well, well, well, we were getting onto the tangent of knee, so I just wanted to show you. Oh, you got it? Hang on. Hang on. Let me go to that. This could, this could blow everything up, you know. Here we go. If, if, if the, if the episode suddenly finishes, you'll know why. Andrew, just hit the end, the end thing. And if I go present, share screen. Here we go. Share screen. Sharing screen is easiest with two monitors. Yep. Share screen. And then you have to choose the window or browser tab. Okay, and then window, let's just go here, share. There we go. Can you see that? Yep, it's working. I just have to add it to the show. Hang on. There you go. There you go. There it is. Ooh, DPR. Yeah, that's the name of them. So, no, no, BSS. Is that the real name? BSS is, it's not BBE, it's BSS. BSS. There you go. So, so for, [00:24:00] for AP on this, I, I have a, a sort of a bit of a fast, well, a reasonably fast attack, um, and, and a similar release, but, but if you were watching this working for AP 3 dB gain reduction light would be blinking sort of, you know, indiscriminately on and off. It's not working very hard, but it's just cleaning up those, those things that are a bit higher. Which means that as you, as you work your way down the stack of compressors, you can actually compress a bit harder. Because there's nothing that's catching that's being compressed really hard, you know, so you sort of, you gradually leveling it out, which means that by the time you get to a limiter, you can actually limit really hard, because there's no peaks that are being caught and squashed radically. It's all sort of being just evenly squashed nicely. So, um, that's the thought process behind that. So I was going to show, uh, go ahead, go Robert. I was going to say, here's a setting that no one thinks about that I think can [00:25:00] make a big difference with some of the really high end compressors, like the George Massenburg. Um, you see every compressor probably has an input, a threshold, attack, release, and output, maybe. But you don't see hysteresis on a lot of compressors. Now you have to explain that now. What does that mean? You've opened that can of worms. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it basically has to do with like having two thresholds. I'll make myself comfortable for this. Yeah, sit back. One threshold to trigger the compression, but the other threshold that it has to maybe follow below before it, you know, compresses again. I have to re remember this, because I don't own one with hysteresis. I mean, I see this knob on plugins. I see, I see Certain plug ins, a compressor will have a hysteresis. No, I think logic hysteresis hysteresis hysteresis. I've never known I'll go with you He hold my beer says [00:26:00] Robert As he dives into this subject So it has two thresholds of essentially a low threshold and a high threshold Right. I think so. I think it's something like that because because I believe you can also have it In a, the same word, but with, uh, with compressor, with gates, you can have it too. What's the wave plugin that does that? Is it the MV one or something that's got a high and a low threshold? It sounds like the MV one there, there was one that one that Bob, uh, there was one that had a whole bunch of thresholds. It was, was kind of like what the RNC does. Um Mm-Hmm. . That was back in the day and it was that mastering engineer from Florida that put it out. MB two, an expensive piece of hardware, I'm assuming. Here you go. Hang on. I was a plugin. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Hang on. Let me tell me if this is the one you're thinking of. Is that with a high threshold? Well, that definitely has a high and a low level. [00:27:00] Seems and that's it. Well, it's at a low level. It's sucking it up. Is this an expander and a compressor? It's, yeah, it sort of seems to be both in the one. But that's why I'm wondering whether that's what Robert's talking about. Is that the, is that what you're thinking of? Um, if I can find, here, I'll show you a picture of the definite compressor I'm thinking of. Um, because, GML, let's see, I gotta spell it out. This has become like a really deep dive on compressors, actually. It has, hasn't it? It really has, yeah. And it's made it nice. I'm looking across here, looking at my 2254 and thinking It doesn't have a history. It's got a lot of stuff in it. No, it doesn't, but it's got lots of different, um, a couple of different limiter, limiter, limiter recovery, fast attack. Is that a Neve thing? Release hysteresis. It has to do with the release timing. So here's, um, if I was to, I will find it. Let's see here. [00:28:00] I'm zoomed in too much. Okay, so how do I share my screen now? And bottom. Present. Present arms. Share screen. If Robert disappears, we know why. Share screen. Share screen. And. I guess we'll just do this. Nope, I'll do that. That'll be easiest. This one, here we go. So add it to the stage and here it is. Here we go. Do you, uh, do you, do you see that? Yep. Yep. And, and if I, uh, zoom in on this thing. So let's see here. View zoom in. How far can we zoom in? It's such a thing. It's called shortcut. Do you know that? Don't you? There you, I I just did it. I didn't, I think it was . So you go, um, timing, release, hysteresis. And you notice it has a setting here and a setting there. And it has to do, so, maybe, in here, let's see, we're going to find So George Mastenberg is probably one of the most renowned [00:29:00] hardware designers of the And what is that, like a 4, 000 compressor, probably? Yeah, I mean, everything he made is absolute, you know, money is no object. I mean, check this shit out, Crest, Crest Factor. Crest Factor. Timing in release histories is to precisely control dynamic features of musical performance when we would arbitrarily use your familiar features such as They don't tell us what it is, they just say it's cool stuff. So Maybe he doesn't really want you to know. Yeah, probably. Doesn't want to give the game away. Go and spend 4, 000 and buy one, Robert, and then come back to us. Exactly. I'll expense it. Yeah, I'll expense it, no problem. Source Elements won't mind. You just won a couple of awards, you'll be right. Well, when you were talking about me, I just wanted to show you this compressor that I probably don't understand how to use, but I've been using for 15 years. And it's the, it's the Dynamics plugin called AU Dynamics Processor. So this is the plugin that comes on Apple. It's the Apple plugin. It's the Apple Dynamics plugin. And the [00:30:00] thing about this plugin is, is it, it doesn't have a ratio. It has a ceiling control. And I still don't understand. So it's like a limiter? Yeah, that's a limiter thing. Yeah, it's very strange, but the bottom line is when I use it A ceiling and a threshold can be similar, but if you think of it, if you have infinity to one ratio and a threshold, then your threshold is your ceiling. Oh, okay. Okay. Now you've confused me, but I'll believe you. If the ratio is infinity to one, meaning you shall not pass, pass my threshold. Yeah, it's brick wall. Then your threshold is the ceiling. Right. So this funny little plugin, right? Which, which I've been using for many, many years. It's got attack release and a master output, normal, normal stuff. It's got an expander with a threshold, totally normal. You know, I use this. It's very handy. You can do a nice, gentle expander. Very, very useful, right? Then you've got the threshold for the compressor [00:31:00] and it has a headroom setting, not a, not a, not a ratio. And then you'll notice it's absolutely A knee, what you call it, a knee style, right? Yeah, that's, yeah, that's, it's a knee, James. And as you approach, as you approach brick wall, right? Well that's brick wall. Yeah, that's brick wall right there. Right. So it's very weird. I never really understand how to conceptualize the headroom. I love the style compressor, but it, well, MDT was, yeah, it works great. This is a great way to do compressors. And this is the same way MDT. Yeah, I think MDT was multi-band dynamics. And you got one of those curves for every single frequency band. Yeah, well they have a multiband version of this too, where it gets really interesting. Yeah, there you go. But considering that's a freebie, and it just comes on Apple, I mean, it's pretty damn good. What you made there, by the way, is known as a That thing you made there with the gate and the compressor, it's known as a [00:32:00] compander. And you'll see that on some, some, uh, like the Yamaha O2, I think, had a compander. It was basically your gate and expander together. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. Yeah, I think pandas have almost become extinct from you don't see them. I don't know. That's because not enough of them come anymore and and and Yamaha wants them all back from all the uh all the zoos. Yeah, it's that bamboo diet that they have trouble with. Yeah. [00:33:00] and on that note, I think we should off. Oh, man. That is definitely the end of that episode. I love how our episodes really do not have an end. They just go, boom. They really don't. It's like you're walking along, you don't see the glass door that's actually shut in front of you. Well, actually, there's a podcast I like, and they end the, the way they end it is one of them tricks the other ones into saying goodbye or bye. And so he'll say some sentence and then slip in the word bye. So it fits into the sentence, so it'd be like, So I realized it was very hard to come byyyyyyyy and then they would all say bye. And that's how they'd end the episode. Because like, nobody knows how to fucking end a damn episode. So you just ramble on, and I'm like, How do we end this fucking thing?

Tripod and Poggo are angry. They are so angry that they needed to dedicate an entire episode to venting that anger. And what better way to vent that anger than via a hijacking of Scod: Scorner?

Tripod like to remember things. They like to remember when times were simpler. They like to remember when they were younger, hungrier and harder working. So why not spend an entire episode reminiscing about the good ol' days? In this episode Tripod and Poggo are getting a little nostalgic with live performances of songs like "Squares on a Screen", "Waiting for the Game to Load" and "Goodbye Little Alarm Clock".

In this episode the gang talk about one of their favourite topics: Money. What is it? Where do you get it from? How do you then get more of it afterwards? To help us answer these questions we hear live performances of songs like "Old Money", "Change a Thing" along with a super-live version of our traditional closing sting "With All My Riches". Poggo also gets dragged over the coals by the Senior Leadership of Tripod along with submitting his homework on new lyrics to Aquaman. Did he pass the test? You be the judge...

It's finally here, the episode we have all been waiting for: Tripod and Poggo LIVE at The Wheeler Centre in Melbourne. To say that this episode is jam-packed would be an understatement. Featuring bumpers, bumpers and MORE bumpers, LIVE versions of Cyber Bag and Absolut-Yon and a brand new surprise segment that Tripod didn't even see coming. Oh and we finally remember to sing a song or two... because, you know... Tripod. Episode Notes: 00:20 - Poggo attempts to dress-down the audience like he does to Tripod before every episode.

Ewwwwwww. In this episode we delve under the covers and touch on the topic of sex. Sexy sex. Everyone's doing it. Or are they? Please note this episode is Not Safe For Work (NSFW), or is it?

With so many rambling episodes that just go on and on, Tripod decide to mix it up by keeping this one to the length of the average commute. Why? Totally not because we ran out of time and needed to get to a sound check. We even managed to fit in three (short) songs - more bang for your minute! AND IT'S OUR 20th EPISODE! No time to celebrate though... Episode Notes: 00:00 - Scod actually brought his family to work. His daughter was super well behaved. 02:50 - It's not Bury the Lede Poggo.

Technology. It's everywhere. It's in every part of our lives. You're even reading this via the power of technology and you didn't even realise it. That's the power of technology. In this episode we delve into the technical world of technology and hear complex narratives on the subject in song form via "The Wheel" and "Playing Online". We also get a meaty Mailbag, some "live" bumpers and Poggo decides to give a poor arranging lesson, however being without his computer he uses the next best thing - Tripod. Episode Notes: 00:00 - I really wish that these were made up bits, but we just press record and this happens EVERY TIME. 05:48 - It wouldn't be an episode about technology without a Gatesy's Audio Corner! 12:14 - Scod drops a bombshell 13:05 - Don't be an idiot like Poggo, subscribe to Triple R HERE! 13:43 - Live performance of The Wheel from Live at Woodford 20:17 - It's a new LIVE bumper, composed ON THE SPOT 26:12 - Problem solved. 28:40 - It's an old school Mailbag 1:03:50 - Live performance of Playing Online from Pod August Night 1:06:02 - It's a NEW BUMPER - Poggo Breaks It Down We love to hear from you!

We're back with Part 2 of "Lady Robots"! In this episode Poggo gets a little Hollywood and recaps Part 1 with a stunning amount of copyright infringement before moving onto a new Cyber Bag™ with the usual mixed results. It's at this point that we pick up where we left off - Tripod stuck in a jail (gaol?) cell on an alien planet. But what happens next?? We only feature one song this podcast; the delightful and heartfelt "We'll Make It Work" with Yon, however there was so much "singing" during the Cyber Bag™ that we thought you'd probably heard enough by then... Episode Notes: 00:00 - It's a recap of Part 1, with all the Hollywood special effects that Poggo could steal muster. 05:15 - Probably the most undisciplined opening bumper we've ever endured. 07:06 - *Some* was public domain. Points for knowing where some of the music/sfx came from. 08:42 - It's the Cyber Bag™! 18:51 - We embark on a dangerous (and painful) exercise where we find Yon, Gatesy and Scod's vocal range. Poggo is arbiter. Let's see who "wins" music. 26:13 - We resume "Lady Robots" with Part 2. 39:57 - Live performance of "We'll Make It Work". 59:45 - And we made it! 1:03:30 - Special announcement coming soon!

This week we venture deep into a classic Tripod show "Lady Robots". But so thorough is our re-telling of the tale that we decide to present this in-depth discussion in two parts. HERE IS PART 1. In this episode we hear live performances of "This Is My Last Transmission", and in a uncharacteristic error, we hear a(nother) live version of "Someday The Lord" (first heard on this podcast back in Episode 3!). Sometimes a cappella can not be contained to one single performance... How good is Tripod's a cappella this time? Only Poggo can lay down his righteous judgement. And of course, this episode would not be complete without reviewing how our intrepid Merch Captain Gatesy is doing with the veritable landslide of merch orders he received since last episode. He was not in a good way when we found him... Episode Notes: 00:00 - The orders never stopped, and neither did Gatesy's mind as it slowly slid into Merch-Madness™ 8:30 - There we are, it only took eight and a half minutes to get to the introduction of topic of the show. Tight! 13:21 - Yon's stack hat has pride of place in the Tripod Clubhouse 15:52 - Haven't been to PAX Aus? Check it out HERE! 17:40 - Bonus Song! 18:34 - Let's start from the top with ACT 1, as retold by the lovely Yon. 19:41 - End of ACT 1, Begin ACT 2 20:33 - Live performance of This Is My Last Transmission 32:10 - Poggo sets a trap... 33:06 - Write in on Twitter or Facebook if you think that was even vaguely a harmonica. 34:38 - Live performance of Someday The Lord 38:04 - Apologies for redoing a tune we have heard before. Tripod will be disciplined later. 38:34 - It's Andrew from the FUTURE, ready to be a jerk. 39:33 - OK ok... that was pretty darn good, especially given Yon had to pick those starting notes out of nowhere. 44:43 - Gatesy's Merch Corner BUMPER. This time it's short and to the point. We mark Gatesy on his progress. 52:27 - It's a new stock BUMPER - T-SHIRTS!

We made a promise back in Episode 15, and now it's time to make good on that promise! This week we look at "Song in an Hour", its history and some of the results of those"hours", with finished products like "Surfers Paradise The Musical" (not from the book - GASP!), "Kevin Bacon" (also not in the book - DRAMATICALLY DRAWS BREATH!) and "Boggyman" (is in book - EXHALES). A wonderful portal into a bygone era of Tripod. Speaking of bygone eras - Tripod have vacuumed the club house and discovered endless hidden merch-gems. Many in formats that are STILL VALID TODAY! Gatesy starts a business as a result... (you can hit it up RIGHT HERE). Show Notes: 00:00 - Yep, we recorded this on Census Night. Tripod were not responsible for the DOS attack. 04:27 - It was Episode 15 Poggo. Geez. 07:45 - Discover the "Principals of Song In An Hour". Follow these laws at home. 16:42 - A neck like this guy. 21:38 - Recorded performance of Surfers Paradise The Musical from About An Hour Of Song-In-An-Hour...Again 25:23 - If you're not familiar with the scene from West Side Story, here's the scene in question. 33:50 - Recorded performance of Kevin Bacon from About An Hour Of Song-In-An-Hour...Again 48:13 - Here's The Writer's Room. Check it out. 50:14 - It's Gatesy's Merch Corner WITH NEW BUMPER** 56:54 - Everything must go. Head to Tripod's Bandcamp Merch Store (handled by Gatesy) now: https://3pod.bandcamp.com/merch 1:05:00 - Send in YOUR personal rating for Gatesy - on Twitter and Facebook. 1:10:58 - Recorded performance of Boggyman from About An Hour Of Song-In-An-Hour...Again 1:20:50 - Send in your questions for next week's Cyber bag!   **We improvised this bumper in one take.

There's been one thing missing from Perfectly Good Podcast for all these episodes, and that, friends, is LOVE. The Beatles once said it was all you needed but that doesn't stop Yon from making sure that Poggo will never feel its sweet embrace EVER. It's a LOVEly episode featuring such LOVEly hits as "Love Song", "Gonna Make You Happy Tonight" (in a brand new time signature) and "DILF". We also hit up the ever-popular Cyber-Bag™ and narrowly avoid a law suit. What more could one want out of LOVE? Episode Notes: 00:00 - This is what every episode is like - Tripod talking shit before Poggo gives them a talking to before pressing record. AMAZING BEHIND THE SCENES INSIGHTS. 17:55 - It's the Cyber-Bag! And it is introduced with a valid bumper. 34:30 - The graph we speak about is below - sent in by @SamStreetr! 41:40 - Live performance of Gonna Make You Happy Tonight from Songs From Self-Saucing featuring a brand new time signature and "groove". 47:20 - A little disclaimer... in the form of a BUMPER 57:34 -Live performance of DILF from Men of Substance 1:11:20 - Gatesy has a brilliant idea.

On the back of a successful "Solo Sesh" with Gatesy and Poggo, Tripod decide to serve it up fresh™ with a different member of the trio. This time we get some one-on-one time with Scod, Tripod's answer to the question "Can men with beards really play guitar"? Not content with following a simple formula, Poggo and Scod abandon the standard format set by Gatesy (who some rate as the most successful of the previous solo session contributors) and break down two songs - one that Scod no longer likes and one he LOVES. The result? A 90min journey through harmonic and melodic nerdery! In this episode the duo break down "Autistic" along with "Ivory Tower" and then worry whether the audience really want this level of detail. (Do you? Get back to us)! Episode Notes: 01:50 - It's Just The Two Of Us! But with much less rap. 02:30 - Turns out Scod WON'T be putting photos of Poggo's house in the show notes... 14:54 - Recording of Autistic from Songs From Self-Saucing 39:45 - Recording of Ivory Tower from Tripod versus the Dragon 51:10 - Scod's first-concept imagery/lyrics for Ivory Tower 55:57 - Scod's second attempt at writing lyrics for Ivory Tower 1:09:41 - Megan Washington's first demo of Ivory Tower 1:11:20 - Let's break this down musically... Want access to some of the material we covered (lyrics and Megan's demo in full)? Download them here with our compliments. Podcast Shoutout!

It's a birthday celebration! Ten episodes means a ten year anniversary yeah? I'm sure that's how it works... Join Tripod and Poggo on another episode of stories, songs (that start and then stop) and listener questions that are sure to delve deep into the Tripod mythos. And the theme for this episode? Why it's Tripod's brand of starting a song and then stopping to argue that gets the focus this week (or "Starty Stopys"). Do they work without an audience? You be the judge. Episode Notes: 00:00 - Hey, it's a poorly planned party! 25:20 - Live performance of Ghost Ship from Fegh Maha 56:00 - Live performance of Maryanne from Fegh Maha 1:13:54 - It's a brand new mail bag called CYBER BAG. The future is now (including a new bumper!) 1:40:00 - It's Gatesy's Audio Corner (sort of)** **Geez - there was an unbelievable static buzz throughout this whole episode that took soooo long to take out.

In a never ending quest to deliver the most "fresh" and "exciting" content, Tripod have changed it up AGAIN and thought the best way to achieve this was not to turn up at all. For what is more pure than a podcast that contains no content BUT in some cosmic way contains ALL content as a result?! The resulting podcast was described by our test audience as "silent". So we did something different. However, due to a scheduling error, and the fact that Scod and Yon have young heirs to groom in their image, responsibilities have been left to, what many say, is the best two Perfectly Good Podcast personalities. The result? The Gatesy and Pog show!! In this episode Poggo gets up close and personal with Gatesy and finds out what really makes him tick. We asked Gatesy to provide three songs (as that is the way of things) which he considers his: Favourite song that didn't make the cut for 101 Tripod Hits Least favourite song (that also didn't make the book) Favourite song that he knows the others hate, so loves it even more. Episode Notes: 01:37 - It's the Pog Couple! 29:50 - Gatesy and Pog receive a wonderful letter 34:00 - Gatesy's Audio Corner anyone? Want to suggest a segment you'd like to hear? Get in touch on Twitter or Facebook. 52:40 - Recording of Dirty Power from Perfectly Good Songs 1:11:03 - Recording of The Homophobic Christmas Tree from For The Love Of God! 1:22:39 - Recording of Shiny Chin also from Perfectly Good Songs 1:36:10 - Gatesy compliments Poggo We love to hear from you!

Happy days! Tripod - Australia’s (2nd?) best musical comedy trio - are in Los Angeles to work on their new show, THIS GAMING LIFE. Scod, Gatesy and Yon take time out of their hectic schedule to reminisce about the good ol’ days opening for cover bands and their old school marketing techniques, which included capturing St Kilda foot traffic and diuretic mail outs. They reveal their individual gaming preferences and advise me on the best games for lasting romantic relationships. I have yet to test their theories... Look out LA Uber drivers - The Peace Machines have arrived and they will serenade you with their three part harmonies!
