00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,159
sam smeyers here today i want to talk
2
00:00:02,159 --> 00:00:03,360
about the bus
3
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:05,440
force plug-in by arturia that you can
4
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:06,640
find in their new
5
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,120
fx collection 2. so let's go ahead and
6
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:11,920
jump into the video
7
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:15,759

this is a full online mixing course that
17
00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:31,279
i created it will show you everything
18
00:00:31,279 --> 00:00:32,800

friends
23
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,120
family and fans i'll put a link down
24
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:40,879
below for you to check that out arturia
25
00:00:40,879 --> 00:00:42,559
just came out with their new fx
26
00:00:42,559 --> 00:00:44,559
collection 2 which had a few
27
00:00:44,559 --> 00:00:46,399
new plugins in it and one of the plugins
28
00:00:46,399 --> 00:00:48,079
that i wanted to go over is called
29
00:00:48,079 --> 00:00:50,399
the bus force plug-in this is a plug-in
30
00:00:50,399 --> 00:00:51,280
that is meant to go
31
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,160
on your master bus or sub-busses or even
32
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,160
individual tracks let's take a look at
33
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:57,840
the plug-in now this is what it looks
34
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,120
like when you open it up
35
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,840
bus force parallel processor it has a
36
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,840
lot of options for running things in
37
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:04,799
parallel
38
00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:06,640
we have the input trim here this is
39
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,479
going to be your bypass button
40
00:01:08,479 --> 00:01:11,119
we have some knobs up here for adjusting
41
00:01:11,119 --> 00:01:12,000
the different
42
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,400
parallel processing options and then
43
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:15,439
here is going to be
44
00:01:15,439 --> 00:01:17,600
the output trim as you can see here
45
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:18,560
there are essentially
46
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,880
three different parallel processes that
47
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,000
you can run
48
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,920
with this plug-in you have this first
49
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:25,040
one which can be
50
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,400
the input or the dry path going into
51
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,960
the clipper and then to the output if i
52
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:31,600
turn this
53
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,040
eq on then the input goes into the eq
54
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,600
and then through the clipper if i turn
55
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:38,720
this on here
56
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,280
that is going to be the mute button then
57
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,640
i can blend this in
58
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,040
with whatever signal that i want then we
59
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,159
have the compression
60
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:49,119
path and then the saturation path if i
61
00:01:49,119 --> 00:01:50,640
want to turn these on and off i could
62
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:51,439
turn the eq
63
00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:53,439
off here and then notice that the signal
64
00:01:53,439 --> 00:01:54,640
changes
65
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,719
if i turn this on then it's going to go
66
00:01:56,719 --> 00:01:58,399
to the eq and then down
67
00:01:58,399 --> 00:02:01,200
to the second chain and then also the
68
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:02,000
third chain
69
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,360
or i could turn it off and then same
70
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,719
thing with a filter i could turn off
71
00:02:04,719 --> 00:02:05,439
here
72
00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:07,040
and then for this last chain i could
73
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,280
actually turn off the compressor
74
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,000
so it's nice to see actually what is
75
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:12,959
happening
76
00:02:12,959 --> 00:02:14,640
visually here with the parallel
77
00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:17,200
processing what i think i am going to
78
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,760
do now for this test is focus on just
79
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,120
running everything through this
80
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,440
saturation path i'll leave these two
81
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:24,319
muted
82
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:26,480
and then i'll start adjusting some of
83
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,160
the processing options
84
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,400
on a guitar bus let me go ahead and play
85
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,599
this guitar bus
86
00:02:31,599 --> 00:02:33,920
by itself i'll solo it and let's go
87
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:35,360
ahead and bypass the plugin by hitting
88
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:36,870
this power
89
00:02:36,870 --> 00:02:42,479
[Music]
90
00:02:50,239 --> 00:02:52,319
now that is the guitar bus i have a
91
00:02:52,319 --> 00:02:53,519
couple of guitars in there
92
00:02:53,519 --> 00:02:55,760
and i have the bus force on the bus
93
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,440
let's turn it on and let's go to
94
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,400
our eq here as i select the eq then
95
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:01,280
visually this
96
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,440
changes to the eq and we can see what is
97
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,120
happening and i'll go ahead and make
98
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:06,879
some adjustments on these knobs here we
99
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:07,840
have a low
100
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,760
shelf a high shelf and then we have a
101
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:19,840
bell filter in the middle
102
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:36,159
so there i just made some adjustments to
103
00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:38,159
the eq and let's go ahead and
104
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:39,060
bypass this
105
00:03:39,060 --> 00:03:44,639
[Music]
106
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,400
and we have that nice spectrum analyzer
107
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,080
there so we can see what is happening
108
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,760
and then you can go on to this filter
109
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,000
here which is going to allow you to
110
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,480
use a high pass filter and a low pass
111
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,840
filter
112
00:04:09,599 --> 00:04:12,560
let's bypass that
113
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,360
and i'm just cutting off some highs and
114
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,000
some lows there so now i've got the eq
115
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,799
and the filter and now let's go ahead
116
00:04:20,799 --> 00:04:21,840
and move on to
117
00:04:21,840 --> 00:04:24,560
the compressor the compressor you have
118
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,400
the attack you have the release
119
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,360
you have a switch here to turn it into
120
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:30,880
either stereo mode or
121
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,440
dual mode dual mode will treat each
122
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:34,080
channel
123
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,919
separately so you'll have your left
124
00:04:35,919 --> 00:04:37,840
channel and your right channel
125
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:39,520
and it will basically compress them
126
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,360
independently of each other whereas
127
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,400
stereo will compress them both the same
128
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,160
amount the force here is obviously what
129
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,759
the plug-in is named after and this is
130
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:49,840
going to be your compression ratio
131
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:51,840
your threshold your makeup you've got a
132
00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:53,199
sidechain option here
133
00:04:53,199 --> 00:04:54,639
for some reason it's turned on
134
00:04:54,639 --> 00:04:56,080
automatically when you open up the
135
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,000
plugin the default option is to have it
136
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:58,479
on
137
00:04:58,479 --> 00:05:00,000
i'm gonna go ahead and turn that off
138
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,840
because i don't want to use the internal
139
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:02,800
sidechain
140
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,240
you could also change it to be an
141
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:05,919
external sidechain and then you could
142
00:05:05,919 --> 00:05:08,000
audition it here let's go ahead and
143
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,600
adjust our compressor and see
144
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:25,840
what we can do with these guitars
145
00:05:34,639 --> 00:05:36,080
once again visually we've got the
146
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,840
compressor here and that's nice that we
147
00:05:37,840 --> 00:05:39,600
have the eq next to the compressor so we
148
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,039
can see what is happening
149
00:05:41,039 --> 00:05:42,800
i'm adding some medium to heavy
150
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,479
compression there with this
151
00:05:44,479 --> 00:05:47,199
ratio and then as you can see this gain
152
00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:48,000
reduction being
153
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,360
applied these little led lights start
154
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,039
lighting up and let's go ahead and check
155
00:05:53,039 --> 00:06:06,880
it out without the compressor on
156
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,400
and i was just adjusting that makeup
157
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,479
gain and then we can move on to our
158
00:06:10,479 --> 00:06:12,319
saturation here we have an option for
159
00:06:12,319 --> 00:06:13,440
harmonics
160
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,560
overdrive and then our makeup we could
161
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,479
change the harmonic type we could do
162
00:06:18,479 --> 00:06:21,340
even odd or thick
163
00:06:21,340 --> 00:06:27,000
[Music]
164
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,479
maybe let's do even there and let's go
165
00:06:32,479 --> 00:06:34,110
ahead and increase this overdrive
166
00:06:34,110 --> 00:06:47,519
[Music]
167
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:49,840
so maybe i'll do something like that
168
00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:51,280
with a bit of saturation to those
169
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:53,860
guitars and let's test out this clipping
170
00:06:53,860 --> 00:06:59,549
[Music]
171
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:03,840
here
172
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:07,440
and that clipping is going to be a bit
173
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,759
of a harder sounding distortion i might
174
00:07:09,759 --> 00:07:10,800
not use that i'll just
175
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,960
turn it off for now and now i have a
176
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:13,919
heavily compressed
177
00:07:13,919 --> 00:07:15,919
guitar with some saturation what i can
178
00:07:15,919 --> 00:07:17,680
do is i can now blend in the original
179
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,919
guitar by turning on this original path
180
00:07:19,919 --> 00:07:21,039
here
181
00:07:21,039 --> 00:07:31,840
and blending in the dry path
182
00:07:34,330 --> 00:07:43,730
[Music]
183
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,000
so there you heard as i was bypassing
184
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,280
this and turning it on and off
185
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,680
i turned up that dry path and turned
186
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,520
down that saturation path basically now
187
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:52,960
i'm using this bus force
188
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,039
as a parallel processor blending in a
189
00:07:55,039 --> 00:07:56,000
saturated in
190
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,080
heavily compressed signal in with that
191
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,759
original signal one thing to note is
192
00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:01,199
that whenever you put the plug-in on the
193
00:08:01,199 --> 00:08:03,120
default setting is to set it into
194
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,080
linear phase which adds a bit of latency
195
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,520
you could also adjust it to be
196
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,080
minimum phase and if you're using this
197
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:10,560
on
198
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,039
a master then maybe put it on linear
199
00:08:13,039 --> 00:08:14,560
phase but if you're doing something like
200
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:15,599
where i have it
201
00:08:15,599 --> 00:08:17,599
on a sub bus or maybe if i put it on an
202
00:08:17,599 --> 00:08:18,639
individual track
203
00:08:18,639 --> 00:08:20,720
then i would choose something like
204
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:21,759
minimum phase
205
00:08:21,759 --> 00:08:23,360
i really like plugins like this which
206
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,199
bundle a lot of different processing
207
00:08:25,199 --> 00:08:26,240
options into
208
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,160
one instead of having to put on five
209
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:29,840
different plugins and then
210
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,520
adjust all the parallel processing
211
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,120
options i can just put on this bus for
212
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:33,680
us
213
00:08:33,680 --> 00:08:35,760
and then adjust everything from here and
214
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,680
everything looks really nice and clean
215
00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:41,039
and all of the visuals that it has in it
216
00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:43,120
are pretty nice you can see the spectrum
217
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:44,800
analyzer and then the compressor
218
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,240
and then also the waveforms for the
219
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:47,920
saturation i think that's pretty cool
220
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,080
as well as showing you the signal flow
221
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:51,920
of all of the parallel processing
222
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,200
whenever i did a test
223
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,519
of using the bus force on an individual
224
00:08:55,519 --> 00:08:56,240
track
225
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:57,920
and then duplicate that track i noticed
226
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,880
that there was quite a lot of cpu usage
227
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,839
so what i did is i did a test i put the
228
00:09:03,839 --> 00:09:04,560
bus force
229
00:09:04,560 --> 00:09:06,320
on an individual track and i duplicated
230
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,000
that track 16 times
231
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,720
so i had 16 tracks with only bus force
232
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:11,440
on it
233
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,480
and my cpu usage was about 30
234
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,399
and then i increased the amount of
235
00:09:16,399 --> 00:09:17,680
tracks to 32
236
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:20,720
and then my cpu usage was about 60
237
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,120
so this is a pretty cpu intensive
238
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,080
plug-in
239
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,920
and i would have liked to be able to use
240
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,279
it on individual tracks
241
00:09:27,279 --> 00:09:30,240
but this is too cpu intensive for me to
242
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:31,600
use it in that way
243
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,680
so where i think i would find a use for
244
00:09:33,680 --> 00:09:34,959
this plug-in would be
245
00:09:34,959 --> 00:09:37,839
using it on a sub bus for example in
246
00:09:37,839 --> 00:09:39,440
this example i showed you i
247
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,240
used it on a bus of some guitars because
248
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:43,920
then you're probably only using a few
249
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,600
instances of it and then you can just
250
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,360
quickly dial in the settings that you
251
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:47,920
want
252
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,680
with this one plugin and maybe you only
253
00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:52,080
have a few of them across your whole
254
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:52,560
session
255
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:54,320
if i just take a look at it now and
256
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,160
let's go ahead and look at my cpu right
257
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:56,720
now
258
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,040
the only plug-in i have in this session
259
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,240
is the bus force
260
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:05,839
and let's go ahead and play it
261
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,079
and notice that my cpu usage is going
262
00:10:08,079 --> 00:10:10,160
all the way up to about 20
263
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,560
or so with just one plug-in on my
264
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:13,279
session
265
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:16,240
and this is using my session at a buffer
266
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,040
size of
267
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,160
2048 that's my max buffer size
268
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,720
so the cpu usage thing is quite
269
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:23,519
disappointing
270
00:10:23,519 --> 00:10:25,120
i don't know if i would ever recommend
271
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,959
that you buy this separately
272
00:10:26,959 --> 00:10:29,279
but if you do end up grabbing that fx
273
00:10:29,279 --> 00:10:31,200
collection 2 by arturia
274
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:32,640
check out this plugin and see if you can
275
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,640
put it on a few buses and hopefully it
276
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:35,200
doesn't
277
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,760
affect your cpu too much and hopefully
278
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,279
you have a more powerful computer than i
279
00:10:39,279 --> 00:10:41,760
do but this is at my max buffer size
280
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,680
of 2048 and i'll go ahead and put my
281
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:46,000
computer specs down below so you can see
282
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,760
what i am running versus what you might
283
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,360
be running all right everyone so that is
284
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,360
