Épisode 1

In Part 1, Fab Dupont lays the canvas for "Je reste." He walks through how he received the stems from producers Mike Lindsay and Josephine Stephenson, then built his mix around their vision, preserving their processing inside his own Pro Tools template. Watch him reveal his complete mix bus chain: Oxford Limiter, Gulfoss, the 10Hz high-pass trick learned from mastering engineer Diego Corvino, SSL bus compression, ATR-102 tape, and the Eventide TVerb that turns a "documentary" mix into a "movie." He breaks down his rhythm crush / band crush parallel compression with the 1176, then dives into the drums: DBX 160, Fatso in parallel, and the Ocean Way trick that places the snare exactly behind the vocal. Essential viewing for anyone learning how to set the tone for an entire album in one cohesive chain.
