Rick's also smarter than yer average bear. Btw, does anyone have an extra ticket for me to go on 30th March in London??? Ill pay of course! I fecked up n' missed out and its currently saying on-line that his gig's sold out ☹
The stark change in audio quality when walking from the garage to the control room is amazing. Of course it's nothing surprising but it's evidence of a really well built studio. That was super interesting, cheers Rick
It really is that simple, though- the differential between the two. You nailed it- it’s how you know someone took the time (and BIG $) to build a PROPER studio
WOW! That's incredible! How you were able to look like you walked INTO the green screen, was amazing! That's some serious special effects to be able to make it look like your studio is so large. Kudos to your special effects guy on making it look so seamless, so realistic.
I would pay money to spend a whole day in that studio. Just playing all those guitars through all those amps and whatever else caught my eyes and ears. What a magnificent space. The fruits of a life time all in one area. Magic
what you describe is literally what this studio was built for :D paying money to spend a whole day there, playing all those guitars and amps and whtever else caught your eye. (up until Rick started doing youtube full time)
Ah building a studio. I built my home studio, which I use for personal use only. It took a long time as well, yet I truly appreciate every aspect of it because I used my own hands. Building isolation boxes for each recessed light, to custom built door frames to accommodate the thicker walls. Today, when someone comes in they see a nice polished studio having no clue whatsoever, as to what is behind the walls, door frames, ceiling etc. It was a labor of love.......
Went through a phase where I'd only buy red guitars. I figured if my wife saw a red guitar, she'd assume it was one I already had and not a new one. So far so good. It even works with bass guitars!
Rick, your studio has become kind of iconic. When I think of what a recording studio looks like, I think of your ATL studio. In fact it’s one of the nicest & most welcoming I’ve ever seen. I really really enjoyed watching this, as well as the other little views you’ve allowed us in other videos. Honestly, I’d like this to be a sort of annual thing. Showing off any changes you’ve made over each passing year. Maybe I’m just getting old… but it seems as though the ‘backgrounds’ of the various channels I watch sort of become ‘characters’ of their own.
The transformation from regular garage space to world class studio completely boggles my mind. I can’t even begin to imagine all the work that went into that 🤯
Man I’m just so EFFEN impressed with the fact that you have had so much equipment, and the Variety of the things that you have collected through the Years
Rick, that is an incredible studio. Thank you so much for the tour. There was definitely a lot of thought, passion, and hard work that went into that build.
I bought an old church instead of a purpose-built house specifically as a cheaper option than building a studio outright. hell, it was cheaper than buying a regular house even after renovations.
Watching a time lapse of Alex Michael (Conspiracy Music Guru) build his studio is quite gratifying and awe inspiring. The new studio for Martin Molin of Wintergatan is nice but there is no video (yet) of it being built.
One thing I always wanted to write in a comment is why I always loved your videos beside the music... Reason being how cozy and relaxing looks your studio... the low yellow light, warm brown colors and of course amps and guitars everywhere makes watching your videos a real pleasure.
Dude you are such an inspiration. You're the living proof that a profession in the music industry is not limited to being a stadium rock star or a violinist in an orchestra
In my mind I feel like there should be this line of other great artists at your door wanting to record a track for a composite album from “The Beato Studio”. The level of authenticity and love for music that exists in people and places like you is what keeps art alive.
Awesome tour! Your studio is comprised completely of choice pieces of bucket list equipment. That said, for those of us that won’t have Dave, a successful RUclips channel and a lifetime to acquire this treasure, can you do a desert island list of your gear? The things that would be must haves to build a studio if you could only have one and had to start all over again from scratch. Would you have done anything differently? Also, what was it about the Mac Studio that you were having issues with?
Something tells me that your RUclips success (which is more than rightfully deserved) stands on the graves of countless albums not being recorded in this fantastic studio.
Ricks videos are the only ones that I immediately click the like button as soon as the video starts...... I have never been wrong yet ...... Its Ricks good nature and good heart that combined with his insane knowledge and talent that make him special iMO ...... If you are a Music Executive you need to get Rick signed up as a VP_ or something, for real .......... he would be perfect .....
Don't give me the "old guy" stuff Rick.. You rock my man and I love your studio. Mine is currently under construction - so excited. Thank for the tour and inspiration!!
What a great tour, Rick! The layout is so cool, and your kit variety is stunning. It rekindled my own childhood memories of putting together a rudimentary studio in my own home. Really well done. A must-watch for any music/production nerd.
Rick, thank you for this AWESOME video. I indeed was one of the many that thought your background was green screen, but before today when I had previously commented on an older video someone replied and told me the truth as you're showing us here. Beautiful, beautiful studio, and your lighting and camera are EXCELLENT for keeping both your background and foreground perfectly in high definition focus!
Jaw dropping. Anyone who has a spouse that says you got too much stuff should watch this! Rick must have someone whose dedicated to keeping it all dust free.
Awesome! My dad had a studio in the extra room in the basement. Called it the “Naughty Room” due to the nonzero amount of tequila that would fuel Friday night jams. It was, set up both for playing live (I was usually tasked with lugging all the crap up the steps when they’d play out) and recording, multi track cassette at first. Lots of the coolest gear amateurs could buy in the 80s and 90s. Most of his friends were use to just picking acoustic guitars in living rooms but could blow the walls off the house down there. Most Friday nights growing up I fell asleep listening to music coming up through the vents... Some of the most fun I’ll ever had I had jamming with my dad down there when I started playing guitar.
Great tour and very envious, Thank you But, You've just reminded me about a great drummer from our era. Please do a video or at least a mention about the late great Billy Cobham. I was lucky enough to see him in a studio in Coventry UK in the late 70's/early 80's as a budding guitar/bass player and just happened to drop into the drum room as he started a clinic session, WOW! That got me listening to Buddy Guy and of course Neil Peart. such an inspiration. Cheers Rick. Keep up on the great work you do for us all man. Forever grateful.
My family thinks I've spent too much on my studio. I have 2 basses (76 Fender Jazz and fretless), 1 Fender Strat, 2 six-string acoustics, 1 twelve-string acoustic, a mandolin, an electronic drum kit, recording gear, and a vocal booth. I'm happy and blessed. I can't imagine having all that Rick has. His is super-amazing.
I love music, musical instruments and attempting to play them, I also love construction and building. I love your musicianship, your incredible musical ability and your all round knowledge of music, and now, I also love your studio! There’s a reason I subscribe and listen to you.. you are a special individual who I’ve cherrypicked and have put into my select (canon) repository of truly inspirational people. Great work, Rick 👍
Always wondered what was in the background while watching hundreds of your videos. And btw, i'm 73 Rick and 60 is not "an old guy." I remember when you had 400k subscribers. Congrats on 3 million.
You mentioned the snares and drums you didn't care for as they "didn't work". As a non-musician i would love to hear the difference between drums that worked and drums that didn't. I am friends with musicians and the nuance is lost on me. I love this channel as Rick is so good at describing what makes things great.
As someone who has just recently got into learning how to record but has played in bands for many years, that would actually be a really cool video to see. Just to watch the process of going through drums for a song until they find the right one
I totally agree, that would be interesting. But I can imagine what would work and what wouldn't work. As I have been around many drummers , and I have heard a few crappy drum sets, but many drummers don't know how to tune the drums, and when you hear a tuned drum set, it sounds nicer, more crisp while an untuned drum set will be more raw in your face
Reminds me of my studio that I built years ago! I built mine inside an industrial metal building! Using the "room in a room" technique. Had a much smaller control room. The studio was pre digital, so the biggest multi-track I had was a Tuscan 8 track. I rented rehearsal time as well as demo recordings, also had classes on recording! It took two 6' stacks of sheetrock!! I chose the name Emerald City.
My favorite drum overhead mics. Pzm mics stuck together on a small plate hanging above the drummer's head, pointing down at the kick drum. The small plate ensures the mics only pick up the higher frequencies. It has a perfect stereo image.
Rick, Hello from South Korea! Your studio is a Dream Studio! It's beautiful! Congratulations on your accomplishments and thank you for sharing with us!
Those Dunlop Max Grips are truly awesome. When I bought my most recent guitar from Sweetwater at the end of last year, my sales engineer threw in a pack of them, gratis. Totally unexpected. I had made a very brief passing remark over the phone that I was no longer happy with any of my picks, and he remembered! Smart sales guy, because I fell in love and have bought several more packs since then.
Amazing video Rick, thank you I really mean it I admire you very much and you´re not an old guy it´s your body that gets all the years you lived, you´re eternal now my friend!!!
I am wondering, have you ever tried a price estimation of all these gear, amps, guitars, etc? I am excluding the building costs. OK, you have a dream channel with over three million viewers and almost half a billion views, but even so, this is incredible. Many many thousands of bucks gear. My admiration and compliments for this great job you are doing. RESPECT
Looks great Rick! You explain things really well, would it be possible that you could do a video how the full signal chain works in a professional studio? Something a little more in depth than just Guitar>audio interface>computer…😂
It really is that simple, though- the differential between the two. You nailed it- it’s how you know someone took the time (and lotssss of money) to build a PROPER studio
it's a DREAM of a studio, wow! If I lived there, you'd only see me come out there very infrequently, like grocery shopping or getting the mail out or something. Amazing!
What an amazing amount of equipment. I'd love to know if your ears are so tuned that you can tell the difference among, say, all the amps. Or if it's an indulgence because why not have ALL the guitars if you can afford it?
@@TimV93 If I had kept everything Ive bought since the late 80s guitars amps, recording gear mics etc it would be twice as much as shown here.. but hey gotta pay the bills sometimes haha. I started doing a list once of all the guitars Ive owned and stopped at 100 now its 7 or 8
My first thought...jealous, but soon after truly impressed! I see a fellow gear-head who truly loves his "stuff" & knows really good quality. I can only imagine the time and $$ invested & you are rightfully proud. Thx.
Mine would be even less. It would be “Here is the garage. On the workbench next to the vise are a set of monitors and an audio interface. The rest of the room, a garage full of house stuff.” 30 seconds.
The "green screen" effect comes from the fact that your studio lighting isn't the same color temperature at you video lighting. You'll either need to add gels or buy lights with color adjustments for the video lights.
I luv seeing studio tours especially private home studios where you get to see the character of the owner/operator on display!! Every studio has its own thing going on and its always about the sound sound sound or ears ears ears ....I don't care how we get a good sound only that we get it and in a timely fashion, your knowlege base gets you there quickly so the creativity can start flowing!!! Excellent tour Mr. Rick!!!
STAGGERING collection of amps! Would love to know if all have been used and how much is as a collection almost. I’m guessing it’s good to give bands such a huge choice anyway. I thought I had a pretty comprehensive keyboard rig but your collection of guitars just blitzes it. As someone who’s worked in London in music for many years, only one word…impressed. I really didn’t think there was much more to the studio than the backdrop and the vocal booth. How wrong I was!
Rick…..you are of inspiration for many and your enthusiasm is absolutely contagious. Please, interview Leland “Frankenstein” Sklar: I am sure the two of you will let us sail throughout the recent history of music 🎵 Peace ✌️
@@markwarren250 homeowners insurance doesn't cover art, jewelry or musical instruments. It's a huge premium to cover that much gear. As this is a commercial operation he has to have a business owners policy for fire and liability plus additional coverage for the gear.
I just moved to the Nashville Area and left my Minnesota studio behind. Now building my new digs. As a drummer I am keen to consider the framing as shown here. Great Video
Great video, Rick. So glad you've shared this with us. I'm curious, how tall are your rooms? They generally look built off 8-foot tall framing. If so, what limitations have you encountered in those spaces?
Rick first a huge thank you a Hug to your wife she has to be an incredible partner when I look at your very professional studio and equipment I can tell your wife loves you and supports your talents Reminds me of Jay Leno’s garage and his Noah’s arc of cars Like I said a big thank you to your wife and family Really a wonderful tour I’ve been in so many post production a production audio companies in Hollywood LA Santa Monica Seattle WA Yours is in the top tied with the other greats Thank you for making this video It’s 10 stars out of 5 stars Best wishes always from Las Vegas Craig Bravo 👏🏻
From everything i’ve been hearing, this is exactly the environment where the Mac Studio should shine…. I am curious where it is falling short for Rick?
He's got more gear than the average Guitar Center.
He's got more gear than I have for sure! 🤣
My Gc is also empty. What’s going on with them? That place no longer motivates me to shop in store.
Rick's also smarter than yer average bear.
Btw, does anyone have an extra ticket for me to go on 30th March in London???
Ill pay of course!
I fecked up n' missed out and its currently saying on-line that his gig's sold out ☹
😂 So true.
Looks like GC just got a new venue.
I’d love to see a video where you produce a song with a band in your studio from start to finish :)
The stark change in audio quality when walking from the garage to the control room is amazing. Of course it's nothing surprising but it's evidence of a really well built studio. That was super interesting, cheers Rick
It was especially crazy when he walked from the live room into the iso booth at the beginning. Just utterly dead sounding, in a good way.

I'd imagine that any musician who truly loves the craft of making music, if they are successful enough, will eventually have their own studios.
Definitely at least SOME decent level of recording gear.
I wont say if I win lotto but there will be clues 🤣

Hey, that’s all the beauty of collecting over the years
I bought an old church instead of a purpose-built house specifically as a cheaper option than building a studio outright. hell, it was cheaper than buying a regular house even after renovations.
A ton of work and good taste has gone into that studio. Very inspiring.
Rick, you're the only youtuber who I feel is genuinely worth doing a behind-the-scenes video. Very cool gear! Great video!
Tim Weber, 4 get "green screen", that mystery door by all rights should've been "green". I might B revealing My age.
Love Rick's work and I'm also liking the update videos of Rhett's basement studio

Hahahaha you’re so right!
Saw the title of the video, immediately left all work and started watching!!
Awesome to see behind the scenes and the history of it! Definitely a dream!
One thing I always wanted to write in a comment is why I always loved your videos beside the music... Reason being how cozy and relaxing looks your studio... the low yellow light, warm brown colors and of course amps and guitars everywhere makes watching your videos a real pleasure.
With all the instruments and processing gear it still comes down to the acoustics of the room. You definitely built an amazing space.
When a man’s life is music, he’s lived a full life. You are a blessed individual.
Dude you are such an inspiration. You're the living proof that a profession in the music industry is not limited to being a stadium rock star or a violinist in an orchestra
What an honor and pleasure to be able to see it all. Thank you!

THE BEST channel on utube. Rick you deserve every thing you get.
Finally Rick! Ever since I started watching your channel I have loved the studio and wanted to hear all about it.

I was thinking the same. I bet it's more though if you count everything in there, it's almost priceless! WOW!!!!
That studio is heaven on earth man.... It's huge ....with so much gear and instruments.... Really cool place
The "green screen" effect comes from the fact that your studio lighting isn't the same color temperature at you video lighting. You'll either need to add gels or buy lights with color adjustments for the video lights.
I luv seeing studio tours especially private home studios where you get to see the character of the owner/operator on display!!
Every studio has its own thing going on and its always about the sound sound sound or ears ears ears ....I don't care how we get a good sound only that we get it and in a timely fashion, your knowlege base gets you there quickly so the creativity can start flowing!!!
Excellent tour Mr. Rick!!!
STAGGERING collection of amps! Would love to know if all have been used and how much is as a collection almost. I’m guessing it’s good to give bands such a huge choice anyway. I thought I had a pretty comprehensive keyboard rig but your collection of guitars just blitzes it. As someone who’s worked in London in music for many years, only one word…impressed.
I really didn’t think there was much more to the studio than the backdrop and the vocal booth.
How wrong I was!
Rick…..you are of inspiration for many and your enthusiasm is absolutely contagious.
Please, interview Leland “Frankenstein” Sklar: I am sure the two of you will let us sail throughout the recent history of music 🎵
Peace ✌️
Wow. The money he has wrapped up and all that equipment is truly unreal
I wonder what the insurance costs on that place?
@@thebarf9235 Blimey wow god knows!
Its actually a savvy investment, he enjoys it, lives from it and as they come vintage it increases the value
@@thebarf9235 great question. I'm sure it is included in his homeowners insurance just wonder if he needs a special add-on for it or not
@@markwarren250 homeowners insurance doesn't cover art, jewelry or musical instruments. It's a huge premium to cover that much gear. As this is a commercial operation he has to have a business owners policy for fire and liability plus additional coverage for the gear.
I just moved to the Nashville Area and left my Minnesota studio behind. Now building my new digs. As a drummer I am keen to consider the framing as shown here. Great Video
Great video, Rick. So glad you've shared this with us.
I'm curious, how tall are your rooms? They generally look built off 8-foot tall framing. If so, what limitations have you encountered in those spaces?
Am a great admirer of you Mr. Beato, followed your channel left and right and have learned a lot.
You should get some help on the tech with a Collab from Linus Tech Tips. Also I love those Dunlop picks.
Amazing..No words to define this studio ,the equipaments and the owner's geniality.
Rick first a huge thank you a Hug to your wife she has to be an incredible partner when I look at your very professional studio and equipment I can tell your wife loves you and supports your talents
Reminds me of Jay Leno’s garage and his Noah’s arc of cars
Like I said a big thank you to your wife and family

From everything i’ve been hearing, this is exactly the environment where the Mac Studio should shine…. I am curious where it is falling short for Rick?
I
also am curious. why don't you like it?
You have my fave studio monitors, Events 20 20's!! I love them!! They are an extinction of my ears.
