Watch him navigate the expansive multi-track session to hear the many raw audio tracks, then see how he combines and intuitively processes them to impart his notable signature sound on the record.

Tchad reveals his approach, signal chains and template with a selection of his favourite plug-ins and an instinctive workflow. You’ll see his parameter settings and hear his commentary on various topics including sound field enhancement, modulation, drastic effects, tape emulation, distortion, harmonic excitement, EQ, compression, multi-band limiting, and much more!
