I spent 30 years studying, practicing and ultimately, teaching architecture. For the last 6 years, I've devoted myself to music. The most important thing I learned in architecture school about presenting my work was to never apologize or make excuses for it. Ever. Always make your best effort. Never present work that fails to communicate your ideas clearly. Always share what does with as many people as possible. Nothing is ever perfect. Dissatisfaction is part of being an artist. If you make excuses or apologize, you prejudice your audience, and rob them of the ability to evaluate it and form independent opinions of it. If you only release work you consider perfect, you'll never release anything. Strike a balance between the volume of your output and it's craft. and put it out there. Listen to criticism, but don't take it personally. Use criticism to improve your work. Disregard outright insults. They are not helpful.
Above all else, make it about the thoughts and emotions you are trying to elicit from or communicate to your audience. If you have something to say, someone will hear it. If it's something profound and beautiful, it will connect with them. If it's well crafted and universal, it will be timeless and important, regardless of it's popularity, because it will be an authentic product of humanity.
Thank you so much for writing this! It's really wonderful
Well said.
This guy is so brilliant. I love how he gets away from the technical side of mixing and goes right into art.
I've been listening to Andrew Scheps' podcast for the last few months and he's become one of my favorite people in the industry. He's such a kind, generous, and wise human being. He really listens to what others say. And when he does offer his own opinion, it's always from a position of genuine humility.
This isn't music or even art, it's philosophy. Brilliant.
He sounds like a real professor, natural speaker. So much value here
I never would have imagined that I would see John Cage 433 played by Andrew Scheps!
I always liked the orchestra version but this... no joke! :)
meh, sub par playing all around
I play it everyday!
He chickened out half way. :-)
"What Comes Out Of The Speakers, Stays Out Of The Speakers."
Thanks for publishing this!
Brilliant. Especially the Q & A.
Amazing insights, thanks.
This was so goood. Thank you very much for sharing it!
Thank you so much for sharing. It is like having been there.
This is absolutely fantastic! Thank you for sharing :)
Wow. This is great. Thanks for the deep inspiration
This lecture was outstanding. Thanks for posting.
I could listen to him all week.
not everybody has money to subscribe in such expensive universities.. so thanks for posting this video ;)
Even if you had the money you still need to be accepted by the school. Its a sham and these schools are built for the privileged kids of society.
Whatever they charge is too much. Much pretentious blah blah.
@Iggy Cardozo rubbish - look at the list of former students at oxbridge and tell me none of them achieved anything!
@Iggy Cardozo lol - many of the things we take for granted now were invented or discovered by people who went to those two universities.. and by ‘music production’, what do you mean? Creating music, sitting behind a desk and mixing records, or the more old school version of a record producer? All three are covered, but the first one - I mean a 30 second look at Wikipedia will show you the number of world famous composers, bands and musicians that went to oxbridge over the past few centuries.
Brilliant stuff Andrew.
Thank you so much, what an absolute treat this lecture was. Thank you for sharing!
Probably one of the best mix lectures I've ever heard or needed. Succinct and inspiring. Excellent video, many thanks
This was a brilliant talk, both educational and inspirational!
thank you! Andrew is the man! so much truth
I love his definition of art. Emotion!
Fantastic lecture, thank you for sharing it!
Thank you Andrew it is very inspirational .
Brilliant guy! 👏👏👏 Thank you for sharing! 🤗👍
What an informative, laid back, funny lesson. Just brilliant
i have always admired your work ethics
This was amazing! He elucidated so many things I've been thinking about for years
Life changing lecture. Great stories about his life and work.
This guy is a diamond, so rare to combine an artists ear with a technicians mind.
Absolutely brilliant.. I learn so much every time I listen to Andrew talk.. be it about music or otherwise. Thank you for this!
Knowledge is power! He’s awesome
Increíble conferencia. Gracias.
And now he's onto Rothko, and awe. Thank yo. Loving it!
Andrew Scheps one of my favorite mix engineers-producers! This guy is awesome!
Such an amazingly pure, positive vibe coming from someone who loves what he does. So glad I happened upon this video.
Andrew is brilliant!
What a dead-set legend - many pennies dropped while listening to these pearls of wisdom. Thank you!
Definitely not my first time listening to Andrew. Why do I keep watching his videos? ... he seems to always make so much sense, in an honest and candid way. And .... he’s a genius.
Sure is. GENIUS
Really great info here! 💯
glad to see my speakers up there :)
awesome lecture. appreciate the Oxford folks sharing this. I didn't know Scheps has so much DEPTH..
Great lecture Thank you Music Faculty of the University of Oxford and Thank you Mr. Andrew Scheps
Wow! What an uplifting, inspirational, insightful presentation. Impressive. Thank you Andrew Scheps :)
I like how he describes the difference between himself and someone like R. Rubin toward the end of the lecture, very eye opening. If you think a little more about that, it gets deeper yet... Very cool, thanks for uploading this.
Mr. Sheps, you are so entertaining PLUS you have so much to say AND it all makes sense...Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
I love listening to super-intelligent people give lectures. This is wonderful, and yes I've been a fan of Andrew Scheps' work since "99 Problems..."
Love this guy.. outstanding.
So incredibly informative. If you are an aspiring engineer you need to watch the entire thing. Andrew touches on things here that took me years to learn on my own
If it took you years to learn nothing, which is what this is, then you should be stacking shelves in a supermarket.
If you go school in engineering you can catch up in a fraction of years
You must be stacking shelves then!
Brilliant! Andrew is a great teacher, he explains things simply and concisely, and gives you real world examples. A true teacher of audio, instead of hiding secrets behind closed doors like others. you have to think about his techniques and approaches and apply them to your own workflow, but if you listen carefully, the answers are revealed
"thinks stormy thoughts and talk sunshine". thank you
This is pure gold, thanks for putting this out there!
I agree
It's pure shit actually. But you are one of those people in the crowd that agreed, when the Emperor (naked) said he had new clothes.
What do you disagree with?
@@leanderhoffmann9976 thats what i would like to know
His prolly one of those assholes who dont want others to learn
This is some serious stuff right here. Thanks for your insight.. Gb
F#
extraordinarily musical advice from a true veteran behind the mixing console. I lost track of all the insights but most of all, I sense he is driven by the power of the EMOTION of the ACTUAL FINAL PRODUCT. everything else (e.g. "analog or VST?"... "laptop speakers vs. giant amps") - it's all based on successfully creating that emotion for the listener, with no excuses. loved it
In a word, excellent!
awesome lecturer!
Thank you for this. All you need is indeed love. And the only way to get that scale and impact of the Cy Twombys - or Mark Rothko, my personal fave - massive and dominating the room, overwhelming the senses - is dynamic contrast within the music. And that of course is part of what was wrong with the loudness wars, contrast is usually subsumed.
In the box! I love it
Great info!
Legend.
What an great guy. Pretty amazing how cynical can still be positive, I like his life approach, I enjoy many of his cerebral ramblings
THIS GUYS A GENIOUS
Incredible points. I was struggling with the philosophy and the “why’s” of creating music and Andrew helped clear my mind. Thank you for this.
Very insightful
Great video! Lots of good advice in there from a pro.
The audience is either asleep or afraid to laugh or express any emotion. Not great for artistic creativity. Let yourself go, kids. What will happen when you get older. Have fun. Don’t worry about what people think. Andrew is so good and even better at getting things across to others. Good video. Thanks
thank you for posting!
26:48 forward really helps one understand the concept of 'What Comes Out Of The Speakers' with a magnificent analogy!
Wonderful lecture. I wish you'd had an audience mic for the questions -- glad some of them had supers.
I like listening to music, interesting to know how it is put together...
The Master of Audio
good stuff, thanks
Andrew The Great!!
47:15 I usually use the Notes track in Cubase (things like brighter lead / volume ride choir / add strings etc.) and find I usually feel I have to add that without looking up the notes. When it's "something is missing" I will look at my notes again. Often times other things take priority, like that huge bottom end or the inconsistency in the Chorus etc. large scale stuff usually helps not to get lost in minor details.
great guy
As I switch to headphones to hear wtf is going on, Scheps smashes it!
Seeing him give the talk makes me think he would make a good Dumbledore.
Him or Rick Rubin?
Elvis. Come back. Music needs you.
The amount of times I went to scroll down and hit the like button again.
That bit with the stick figures was unexpectedly deep. It sorta gut-punched me. I don’t think I’ll ever forget that
17:48 "It doesn't matter what they were trying to say. All that matters is what you think they said, because that's all you get out of it." Awesome.
very awesome and true.
but then he proceeds to not follow his own advice/lesson (referring to the trouser thing) by saying his argument was pretentious a couple times.
@@ssccaappeeggooaatt 😆👍🏽
thanks
Thank you for putting (some) of the questions asked in text up on the screen. More videos with an instructor like in, this setting, need to realize that the crowd is rarely mic'd up and sometimes you have to watch the answer several times to figure out what the question even was, should the speaker not repeat it themselves.
I would agree that Music is also a very necessary tool for humans. At many levels, from tribal worship, religious worship and for people to dance and have (needed) fun, to movies and music to support image, theater etc...
Andrew Scheps is the BEST mix engineer ever exist so far!
Shah Daniel lanois, mutt lange
28:30 i must remember this advice!
He is the Woody Allen of music! Brilliance!
Perception vs. intent-Human's art
Author intent.....
Art is what results when someone intends to create art.
Vs..
The role of the spectactor.... It's what comes out of the speakers, but even more, it's what the listener brings to the experience.
Can't believe the room didn't burst out laughing, or even let loose a stray snicker a few seconds into 4:33.
Nice
#wellsaid - keep the storm inside, and let the sun shine
14 people hate how he compresses
16:27 I though I had finally lost it, and I was just seeing everything as a video game now
Oh shit, Andrew's about to get sniped!
great talk! I have a question about the Rear Bus Technique which is tumbling around my brain from a while...do you send to the rear buss a copy of the send fx (reverb, delay) or do you keep them separated?
23:27 I’d say an example in visual art would be the lighting, and what it does to the colors and shading of a painting. If an artist paints by the light of a candle, their experience of light and color would be radically different from something like open sunlight.
28/04/2020 am thinking this man is a musicion thats greater than the greats , what has Andrew Scheps composed any one got any links ATB
It's all connected,first you need a great talent as a musician,second great instruments,gear,audio interface,DAC ,good monitor speakers and then yes it will come a very good sound out of the speakers.
What a room your facing away from the Mic the dynamicks are the same , am i going crazy sounds good
