What should I put in the rack next??
The Avalon VT-737sp is a nice piece of kit if your wallet is feeling full lol
A good low budget, WA76, great recreation of the 1176
Might not be a great value but I’d love to see u build an DIY Hairball Audio 1176 compressor
Ua 4-710D because those pre amps are versatile and it allows 4 extra line ins, connected via ADAT to your x8p!
Dude, I once owned an old Chicago Slingerland kit red sparkle in my late teens. It was actually gifted to me by my uncle, and I knew absolutely nothing when I briefly owned them. Yeah. I eventually sold them to a collector/restorer. I think they were late 50's-early 60's? 20" kick. Best sounding kit I've ever played in retrospect, but I already had two modern Mapex kits. Yeah. I know. I still hate myself to this day. Almost as much as when my former band gave away a real deal Gold Horse Klon to our producer in 2002 as a mix wrap gift. Think we paid $250 for it new order? Yeah. I'm "that guy" (facepalm).
That intro Cracked me up. 😆
You're gonna like the Lewitts. And yep, she's right. Vocalists drink tea. Critical to have.
Tea for the win :)
Yup, good call. And kudos to the camera work and B-roll footage, Ariana; definitely appreciated.
Aaron S I tried to do it as best as I could haha. Thank you very much :)
Ariana Masters Better than that other guy 🤣🤣
Don't kno who this camera lady is but thinks she deserves a raise 😉 😂
Cable Management Skills are MAGNIFICENT!! 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
😎
"That sweet nickel back sound.." 😂
Nice setup! I always enjoy these videos!
This videos are always on time for lunch! 🔥🙌🏻💀
How great must it be to be able to share your hobby with your partner like that. You are one very lucky man.
Yess been waiting for this one 🔥
Me too! haha
Your room has come a long way! Congrats :) Also... whoever filmed the walkthrough portion.... IS EXTREMELY TALENTED.
You're the best!
lol, I noticed this is andrews wife after I read the comment. smooth! lol I also agree. good camera work.
wait I just realized both of your names start with an A...double AA like a battery, Im suuuuuure you have neeeever heard that one.
@@Oddsoulandthesound Actually, the battery reference is definitely a first! :D
Lol. We know who the studio boss is! ;-)
Awesome set up, channel has really come a long way in the last year :) keep em coming and thanks for the hook up on the folding hangers just what I needed for my set up, have a set on the way thanks again :)
Discovered your channel about a year ago or so. Still love the content. Superb, inspiring studio. Killer cable management. Great look / organization, etc. Awesome job. Appreciate your down-to-earth vibe, too, Andrew. Good stuff.
Loved the Q&A portion. Followed you on Insta!
Great studio! I’m addicted to these shows! Congrats!
Glad you like them!
Nice drew love this channel Im hook like green crack (witch I grow green crack) meaning your videos are Addictive
SHE ALREADY KNOWS HOW TO USE IT ANDREW!
haha! She knows all
THANK. YOU. TELL EM' !
It look good to me brotha!!! 👏🏻🤓 Cheers 👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!
You did an OUTSTANDING job on your studio.
Thank you!
Outstanding. Light Years from the beginning. All the new gear and gadgets to play with. You need to hire that Videographer.....extremely steady and just an occasional giggle!
I’m working on getting there!
Lol thank you
@@AndrewMasters where's my money
Oh man, that Green Day guitar brings back some memories...
right?
15 years ago!!!
dude loving your content. binging
YES
Keep up the work. Love all your content!
Much appreciated!
I'm Brazilian ... Someday, I intend to move to the USA. Set up a music studio and play at night. Success to the channel.
excited to see that patchbay vid. Would benefit your setup for sure!
Have you traded coffee for green juice? HaHa! Excellent filming, Ariana ; ). Love your studio, Andrew! It's evolving nicely.
Yes! Thank you!
He will NEVER stop the coffee lol
This video should be called "This video will inspire you a LOT"!! oh man, loved the studio, it's awsome!! very well thought!
Yes! Thank you!
Honestly your set it really perfect. Just solid
Thanks!
Love the m160 on hats and guitar cabs! Love how you added the TV across from the kit for easier line of sight for DAW.
I'd love for you to do a video on exactly how you manage your cables... like everything you bought, length of cables, where they're hiding, etc. Absolutely brilliant. I NEED that for my studio, which is basically overrun with midi controllers... haha. Thanks, Andrew!
Been here since the studio build! cool to see all the new additions and gear! I hope you know now i'm expecting one of these every year
haha! You know everyone on RUclips loves another video they’ve already done with a new year.
Great video gotta show off mine now
I watch all the videos you make of everybody else's studios, OF COURSE I'M GOING TO WATCH YOURS 😂😂😂😂
Love your setup dude. I only understand an 8th of what you got in there but it's so dope
Andrew you totally remind me of the actor we all love Ray Liotta of course when he was younger. Enjoying your channel brother.
Waiting for that membership button !
Drink nothing but tea in the studio here in the UK ;). Love the channel - Peace.
You guys get a pass!
Sir, you are such a bad influence. Love your stuff! Keep on sharing and inspiring people
Thanks a lot Andrew for making these videos! Amazing work.
My pleasure!
Thanks again for the great studio tour! It was the video of you building your room that had me fall in love with this channel! The room has certainly come a long way and it is inspiring to see how you efficiently and creatively use the space. All the best!
Awesome! Thank you!
Just found your channel and love it! Keep the videos coming man!
Those Lewitt Mic's are great bang for the buck ... Awesome quality and sound
Thank you for the amazing videos, great job you are doing, stay safe and be blessed!!!
I too live in Tennessee, use a mac mini and Apollo x4
Epic
It’s changed quite a bit since the initial studio tour and I love it man! Love the TV and the new desk
nice desk dude!
I use the exact same hooks.. some for headphones, some for cables...and two of them to hold a katana.. although it serves no purpose in the studio.😂
Excellent job. Would love a link on those shelves from Amazon lol. Obviously you have a great ear, but I’ve learned a lot from how you organize your space and approach things. Thanks for the content!
Get that fire extinguisher mounted up on the wall for quick, no brain needed access please. Great use of space and gear sir! You're gonna LOVE the Aputure upgrade when you're shooting in the field.
I’ve got them all over the house, but I like the idea of mounting them on the wall! I’ll look up one of those brackets :) Thanks for the tip!
that's pretty sick that you were one of the lucky ones to get pulled up to play with Green Day
hey we have the same printer
everything else is just a dream of mine. such a nice setup!
It’s an epic printer. No doubt.
This may be an old video and you may have upgraded lots of equipment and moved to a rental, but the passion on all of these videos is inspiring, you can tell you just love music and the world of audio. So thank you so much for not only keeping me wanting more music things lol but inspiring me to make music on a daily basis. If we have all of this why not use it?? Love all the content you put out and good luck on the new build! Turning out great so far
Thank you
Absolutely love the studio, love your videos and love this channel!
Thanks!
My 1 year old pulled my ribbon mic down the other day. I work out of a room half the size and need to start ceiling mounting everything.
Yamaha acoustics are way underrated!
Great studio tour!Creative ideas for sure!
Thanks!
I’ve been watching this guys videos for a while but this one really made me “like” his persona on vid so much more. He’s been in some out of this world studios. His is somewhat more humble but he did the work and you can tell that he is so wonderfully proud of it. I smiled almost all the way thru this. Do your thing dude!! Love your studio! #uraregularguy
This was very nice of you to say :) He is definitely humble and man oh man did he work hard on this room. Thank you for this nice comment.
Nice setup Andrew great work
Vibe > gear dude and your room does what it needs
Totally. But if someone wants to send me some gear that’s cool too. 😂
It's an electro acoustic like a godin. This particular one works with a piezo pickup under the bridge. Probably passive if you don't have to put in a 9v battery. most modern piezo guitars have the preamp built into the guitar so therefore they need power. I personally really like passive piezo systems. with modellers or straight into the desk they really work well, you shouldn't run too long cables tho
YOU JUST HAVE THE LEWITT SITTING UNOPENED?! The Lewitt 440 Pure is one of my favorite low-mid price mics!
Pumped to try them!
quite impressive :O the screen arm looks very practical. Impressive, how tidy your studio looks :D
You have a really nice space! The ceiling mounted overhead is awesome - the sliding track is ingenious. I'm in the same boat (actually less space than you! haha) and have been looking around trying to figure out a similar solution. How did you make yours? Do you think it could hold a pair of 4038s on a Blumlein bar? Would love to see a video on how you put it together. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks! I actually made a video showing exactly how I built those. It’s called “DIY Ceiling mount for Home Studios”
@@AndrewMasters Thanks so much! I will check it out. Really appreciate that you took the time to reply too.
I have the a7x's. I also had the 10" krk. I recently upgraded to the Adam 12" and what a difference.
nice update! i think i spy some Highpoint Coffee from MS??
Love it ! I need to fix several guitars on my drywall. Did you fix a plank of wood behind your guitar holders, so the drywall can support all the guitars ?
Yes, it's particle board and I used anchors into it!
Man, you are so talented. I’ve watched this particular vid a few times (even after all of those epic studio tours) I hope to put something like what you have together (I’ve got a house but no studio) 😆
Appreciate it, at this point I don’t know the difference.
Hey Andrew! Wondering if you could do a future video where you break down the entire cost of everything you invested in... treatment, mics, studio desk, outboard gear, etc. I know a lot of people like to keep this stuff secret but I am REALLY curious how much everything cost you, in detail. Thanks man!
Love your studio. King of maximizing space with efficiency. That Dangerfox 24U is hungry for some outboard gear 😀
You got that right!
Which patch bay you order?
Great studio setup. I totally need to upgrade to the UA interface’s soon.
I love mine!
You haven’t tried the Lewit mics, wow, I would have them out and working immediately, take a picture/video of the fist time you try them! A little tip, set them up as over shoulder mics, equidistant to the snare Center and 90 deg relative
Andrew, you will love the lewitt mics. the 040s sound great on snare and acoustiic guitar.
Heck yeah. Thanks josh 🙏
Just giving you a hard time! Thanks dude, I’m pumped to try rhem
@@AndrewMasters haha i just saw it, damn autocorrect XD have fun
Great stuff bro! I have a random question - what music is playing for the hype sequence (B-roll)? Did you do that? It kicks haha. Thanks!!
Well I just bought the folding hooks... I have hell bent to get my epic studio here in Indianapolis to be organized and practical again.
Love the video and your channel. I have a very similar setup at my house and was thinking about mounting my overheads to the ceiling yesterday. Today this video pops up on my feed and it feels like a sign. In the description you have the onstage mic flange but it looks like there’s a rail or something on your ceiling. Can you elaborate how you did it? Anyway great content.
Never mind just saw the diy ceiling light video. I should have looked before posting. Ha.
wifey had a nice song going on... why not do another one?!
Your room size is almost identical to the one I’m building, I love how you have utilized every nook and cranny and yet it still looks clean and not cluttered!! I see you utilized the hanging mic. Over the drums, was that after the video you did where he was utilizing hanging stands for space? I am actually doing the same after watching that video too!! Keep-m-coming!!
Yeah i just did the overhead stand last week, same concept as that old video!
Been thinking a bit about the Squier and your acoustics.
If the Squier plays that well conceivably you could put up four or five different pre loaded and pre wired pick guards for it giving you the full range of tones from the bright fifties classic Strat quack over the classic rock sounds of a 70s-80s Superstrat sound all the way to the modern Fishman Fluence / Bareknuckle Pickups /
Emg 81/61-81/85 high gain/metal characters in one well set up guitar.
Likewise for more acoustic work the acoustic guitars could be tonally matched with a slightly mid scooped tone with good bottom end and top for strumming paired with a warmer more mid present second guitar for additional strumming and chordal rhythm work.
The Yamaha then could be bright and sparkly,- good for fingerstyle and single line melody playing.
The twelve string of course should be a twelve string, as Ariana insists! ( :) ) and a second twelve string in six string setup brought in for Jumbo body sounding comping and melody playing.
That way in both electric and acoustic setups you could have everything present in their tones,- from baritone to tenor characters in both bright and mellow characteristics.
Simple ways to get tonally very very far with only a little in the way of actual instruments.
My five cents. :)
Thank you for sharing Ulf! Always appreciated :) Hope you are doing well.
Ulf you’re awesome, this is amazing. Gonna go down the rabbit hole on the pick guard situation
I hope you will let us know what you think about those Lewitt LCT-40s. I've heard lots of good things about them, especially considering they are so inexpensive. I have an LCT 640-TS, which I've been pretty impressed with. The condenser seems exceptional, if uncolored.
I’m really struggling to make the step to buy a bunch of rockwool and treat my studio with it because I keep reading about mold and stuff like that. Since you’ve already dealt with that issue, do you have any tips? Great Video and great studio btw. Love ur channel
Great question. Funny you should ask! I am extremely cautious with building materials and am well aware of the insidious nature of MOLD. In fact, I hired a mold inspector 3 weeks ago to come out and inspect the home (including that particular situation in the studio) as well as do air sample analyses. We have no issues with mold whatsoever, thankfully. The window we saw condensation on (from the outside of the home looking through that window) was due to the fact that the sunlight would enter that window and create interacting temps on the window - this could have lead to potential mold growth. However, on the opposing wall, we never saw condensation and when I asked the mold inspector 'why,' he told me that it was due to that side of the home NEVER getting sunlight, therefore allowing a stable temp to exist on the glass; no condensation will form and little-no opportunity for mold growth. So keep that in mind when covering windows (which in general I don't recommend, because honestly, it's not worth the risk).
Watching this, and notice one of my own songs at 2:45 also made in a small 1 room home studio, small world lol Cheers 🍻
Epidemic sound!!
Yessir, sure is 🤘
Good tour...I am setting up in a similarly-sized room.
Concerning the Squier guitar that you love: What pickups did you install?
I have a Squier Strat as well; a 50th Anniversary model that I bought off eBay for $85 bucks years ago. One of my favorites to play, putting some of my more expensive guitars to shame.
In a somewhat unrelated question: What do you home studio owners do about insurance? Do you pay extra on your home policy or have a separate policy covering your gear? I watch a lot of studio vids on RUclips and never see it mentioned.
Thanks...
I was waiting for a battle with the wife over the tea, but you rushed past it, knowing you can't win that one!
dude, where can I check out some of your productions?
Get stood up this week? 😁
So, you've got 12 inputs as far as I can tell, but 14 mics on the drums. Can you explain your signal flow? From what I can see you have about 20 pieces to input but no mixer and not enough inputs on you X4 and X8p. Thanks, man. I really enjoy the videos. I've been a working musician/singer/songwriter and engineer for 35ish years, but I built my YT channel talking about smartphones and mobile tech. Pivoting toward audio again because U can't stand to talk about phones anymore and watching your channel grow over the past year or so has been fun.
haha yes only 12 inputs. I have no idea what I was talking about when I said 14. Thanks! I have another interface/more inputs on the way so i'm getting ahead of myself.
@@AndrewMasters What are you getting to bring in more channels? I've been thinking about augmenting my Twin X with an 8p just and 8 and using outboard, but it sure is a lot of $$. Since I'm moving toward audio I'd love to talk offline about what you've found works well in the pro audio space. At nearly 200k subs it's going to be like turning an aircraft carrier, but I've been super impressed with how you've approached your channel.
@@thejasontlewis I just added the Arturia 8pre to my studio for ADAT connections. It sounds great and has tones of features.
@@DoctorMcFarlandStudios I have been looking at those. Really impressive and it seems like Arturia is serious about their interface game. I actually just ordered a TASCAM Series 8 Dyna. I've always liked TASCAM gear and this has individual 48v for each channel a single knob analog comp for each channel. At $500 it could be a steal, but pretty soon I'm going to try a piece of the Audiofuse line. I hear they have a new version of the original Audiofuse coming out.
Can’t say yet! But I’ll make a video when I get it
I have a question for you Andrew. After micing all the drums and overhead mics what should be the next thing to add, room mic, hihat, or snare bottom?
I would say it depends on the track, if it’s something that would sound good with roomier drums then definitely more distant miking. If not then I would do more focused close miking.
What happened to the sliding keyboard tray under the Dangerfox??? You said it was great in your previous Dangerfox video.
Trying out a new arrangement, actually really liking having the keyboard separate from my desk
Trying out a new arrangement, actually really liking having the keyboard separate from my desk
i find there's never enough info on tracking, would love to see an ep on tracking different instruments
Hearing good things about Lewitt. Let us know what you think.
Will do for sure!
hello andrew , i love your content , i m builing my home studio , and i was told that having drums and guitars in the mixing room is not good for acoustics , what do u think ?
Certainly not ideal! But if you want to record some drums and you only got one room, compromise.
The number one thing you need to do is get your sub off the floor
How much off the floor would you recommend?
Yeah this is interesting
@@manuellujan5625 it depends on how tall your ceilings are if it's 10 ft 3 to 4 ft off the floor if it's 8 ft then you're probably going to want to do 3 to 2 and if you can you should try to buy ISO pucks Subs create more shakes than satellite speakers so the shaking is more noticeable if it's not properly mounted to absorb the subs waves
I was wondering how comfortable you are with being limited to just "dead room" drum recording at home, and if you use any plugin tricks to get a "live room" sound when needed?
Personally? I prefer a "dead room" from both player and mixer's perspective. Currently living in apartment E-drum + Toontrack purgatory. Fun times.
It's really not bad at all. I made a video on some stuff I'll do to make the drums sound big in a small room if you want to check that out.
What monitor controller your using dope vid too🔥🔥🔥🔥
The apollo x4 doubles as the monitor controller, thanks!
@@AndrewMasters thanks highly appreciated it 🙏
Thanx for the great content. Quick question: How do you hook your Warm Neve pre to the Apollo?
Xlr line out to xlr mic in
Hey man! Dope setup! I'm looking to do something similar by turning my home office into a mix room and I'm wondering how much did all the construction cost you? Just trying to get a ballpark. Thanks!
I'm down for any course you put out, whether it's specific to mixing/audio or RUclips content creation.
Hey man dope set up. I am going crazy trying to find out how you made your overhead mic system. I have a little rehearsal home studio and your overhead stand system is super ideal and brilliant for my space. What material did you use besides the flange. Also I’m super hooked on these studio tour man keep rockin!
I have a video on how I built them called DIY ceiling mount for home studios
I told a client once "Thats sounds like shit"
Can you do Matt Mahaffey's studio space next?
I’d love to, he’s a pretty busy dude though!
@@AndrewMasters Yeah, I figured he's pretty high level. But then again, so's your channel at this point.
Tell him if he wants his bass back, he's gotta agree to a studio tour. :) (I'm kidding. Sort of.)
lol he’s down to do it but getting schedules to work between all of us isnt as easy as I’d like. It’ll happen! He just built a new spot and it looks killer.
dude Andrew, what would you recommend as budget drum overheads?
What kind of budget?
Can you drop the link for those hooks?
whoops! just added it to the description. "foldable wall hooks"
8:22 cut that out before your wife sees it!!! :P
wife was there ;)
