Curious, you don't use an Elgato Stream Deck for your podcast? I would think a creative guy like you could make great use of that device in that setting.
Loved this video. Always appreciate setup videos! One suggestion.... add a cheap rugged gopro type camera and attach it to boxes for a "box cam" when you throw them! (if any would hold up more than 1 video! LOL)
It's almost as if there is some insufferable basement-dwelling know-it-all who subscribes to this channel merely to unlike every video as soon as it comes out... LOVE looking at people's studio setups! Thanks for this Bandrew!
Haha. Ipreya so much Travis. I love these videos too. It’s so fun seeing the gear and the organization of other studios. BTW: I still need to reply to your email. Sorry about that!
If you have a question you want an answer to, I find that you have to email him at AskBandrew at gmail so he'll answer it in his podcast. Anything I'm too lazy to research for myself, I AskBandrew. That reminds me... I need to email him and ask what my wife wants for Christmas.
Yeah. It’s stupid expensive and there’s no denying that it is complete and utter over kill. Most people online would never notice a difference between this setup and a $100 setup.
The Sony MDR-7506 headphones are GREAT! I love them. They're relatively cheap, super comfortable, and very well might be the flattest pair of headphones I've ever heard. I feel like I can hear the entire frequency range easily and without any color to the sound. When listening to music through them I often find myself hearing things that were never clearly audible in other headphones. Best bang for the buck headphones especially if you intend to do any mixing, in my opinion. That Box of Doom looks really interesting! I've been considering different ways to create a guitar amp sound without actually having to drive a regular cab at typical guitar amp volumes; I value my hearing and am not interested in completely blasting my small house full of obnoxiously loud noise, having it bleed through the walls so that the neighbors can hear it. I'd kind of prefer to still have a tube amp to drive the signal but I've been a little confused by what my options are for attenuating the amp and getting the audio into the interface. Or do I skip the amp and run some kind of modeling rig straight into the interface? The Box of Doom looks like a really awesome, and extremely straightforward option. I would love to see a video discussing more about it! This video has been very informative, as are all of your videos. I'm working on creating my own little recording space in a corner of my house and am still in the research process as I try to determine what will work best in my own space.
The Sony MDR-7506 are totally NOT flat. A graph of their frequency response curve has so many hills and valleys it will give you nausea from all the ups and downs! These phones have a piercing boost in the 5K to 7K range that is as high as the Great Escarpment in the Johnny Weismuller Tarzan movies. These phones are guaranteed to give you ear fatigue in a very short time.
@@nancybeckett890 They definitely do NOT for me. I don't know what your problem is, to be perfectly honest. I get that they're not necessarily the best phones to use but I still can't get enough of them.
Your rig is amazing. I'm definitely gonna have a look at some of this stuff to see if I can make use of it, like the tripod you use for the overhead stuff and behind the desk.
LOL! This set-up is God's way of telling you that you have too much money. (Makes me nostalgic for when I was single and childless.) But it is awesome, and the important thing is that you are enjoying it, and producing first-rate videos as well. Love the intro, too. Congrats, and have fun!
Thanks so much Brian. I love this stuff too. Seeing the gear other people use and the workflow and how everything is setup is always so much fun and can spark some new ideas on how to organize or setup your studio. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. ❤️
Dear Sir, I have an unclear point about 1/4 inch input jack connectors in mixing console. I want to know that whether we're can plug TS or TRS jacks? I need to clear out that these input are always mono???? If the 1/4 inch input connectors are mono, how can we plug stereo jack( if we need to fix a keyboard how can we use one channel??? Or need to use 2 channels to get the stereo picture???) I haven't seen plenty stereo inputs in console in general.
omega i just subcribed to you like 2 hours ago and was hopping you would make a video like this! and in less than in hour hear it is! Great telepathy skills man!
Coool... I enjoyed your video! Made my way here from your Neumann U87ai review video. I am saving up for one next year. And possibly the Neumann v402 mic preamp. Soooooo... Yep, I would like to see a review of the mic preamp with the U87ai when or if you get a chance... Oddly enough, that is actually not the reason for my post.... I enjoyed the tour! It was really cool! I do recommend that you add a very odd piece of gear to your setup if you do not already have one or two.... For your computer, I recommend that you add the Cyberpower 1500LCD. Please make sure that you are plugged into the battery backup inlets. Also, for any gear that will not fit in the alloted inlets, then add a Cyberpower Systems UPS. I lost two computers to power surges, lightning, yadda, yadda, before I saw the value in having uninterruptible power supplies. And no, I do not work for the company, buuuuuut I learned the value of the ups the hard way and I see all of your wonderful gear and just think that would suck if you lost your gear on an easy and relatively inexpensive fix. Note: Typically, UPS are recommended for areas where the electrical power is shaky, but now I just recommend the backup units for any gear you want to protect. For example, I have one on my tv and receiver! Guess what? The power just went out last night, but I was not worried about a surge taking out my tv because I knew it was on the ups. In either case, I did subscribe to your channel. Nice work and have a wonderful day.
@@Podcastage I'm just going to assume that I have the ultimate boom arm, since it says ULTIMA right on it. I'll watch your shootout, but I'm not buying a different one no matter what you say.
If you've got a Canon camera but NO NIFTY FIFTY, you need burnt on a pyre of broken 90's/00's digital cameras. It's the one lens we all have to have with it's delightful buzzy focus motor that says' Yeah dude, I'm working hard!' Show us more on the 'BOX OF DOOOOOOM!' as everyone is capable of making noise but controlling it is another thing. That cable management tho.. Delicious stuff and who cares if it looks like an eagles nest... I DON'T!
@@Podcastage Fan of Jay and Mike, plus a little Rich on the side! Jay is the refinement that the gruff Stoklasa beautiful-barbarism needs for "balance" 🧐 As with your channel, every day is brighter when they release a new vid! (though that Home Alone kid is attempting a coup, I tells ya!)
What type of studio interface rack thing is that where you place the la-610 mkii? I would like to buy one since I am really getting into the audio world and want to improve my interface. Thanks!
Paul. I finally picked it up last month after saving for years. Currently I've been using it on my podcast (www.bandrewsays.com or ruclips.net/user/bandrewsayspodcast), and I'm going to be playing around with it for music over the coming months to see how it works out before the review.
How do u fix the buzzing of a condenser microphone? When ever i try to get rid of it on adobe audition or whatever the buzzing is still there like a you can hear a little bit of that buzz whenever i talk!! i tried many solutions, watched many tutorials and non worked! i have a neewer nw 800 condenser mic!
how are you finding the wa-73? I've been using it with a u87ai for rap vocals and been enjoying the results compared with my apollo neve simulation pre
Amazing content love this channel so much. This studio is sweet I just upgraded my computer to a an iMac 16GB of ram and also got a roli songmaker kit. Do you have a music channel?
Can you please help me, I need a mic mainly for voice in a room that has not been treated so could be echoe. The icing on the cake would be if it could be used to record an acoustic piano although thats not it main purpose. I have a budget of 200-300 and would be good to have a stand and shockmount factored in to this cost. What would you recommend would be best bang for buck?
Thank you for the video. It is worth noting that your actual focal length that you get from your sigma lens on the camera you use it with (has an aps-c sensor) gives you the full frame equivalent of 15-52.5. This is a great range to have for streaming. However, be aware of possible "perspective distortion" when using a wide angle lens. Love your videos 🎉 5:06
Thank you very much for the information. I was always under the impression that the crop factor of an ASP-C sensor, particularly Canon was 1.6x meaning if you have a 10mm it would be like a 16mm on a full frame. If you have an 18mm it would be similar to a 28.8mm lens on a full frame. So because it's an 18-35mm lens on a 1.6x crop factor camera, wouldn't it be a full frame equivalent of 28.8 - 56mm?
@@Podcastage You got me there! Forgot about that. Canon, does indeed use a crop factor of x1.6, you are right about that. Your calculations for the full frame equivalent are thus correct as well. I wrote you a pm (no scam or spam, honest comment, maybe it can help)
One question, I've been checking at the VO:1A Harlen Hogan Signature mic cause it sounds pretty good. But I can't find anyone who's made like a proper review for it. Is it possible for you to do it please?
Could you please demo, with and without the preamp; mic (u87 of course) -> universal interface to software VS mic ( u87 of course of course) -> preamp -> interface -> software ... not sure also, why you needed focus beside universal interface - thanks
Hi, scuse me, which mic would you choose? Audio Technica AT2020, Tascam TM 80 or MXL 770? Here in mexico its all i can afford buying from amazon. Any other contender? Thanks for your opinion, great work, i like your songs on the reviews
6:47 Oh god, this would literally be a nightmare for me to need so many things, simply cause I'm a perfectionist, and with that, also pretty bad in terms of deciding on one product, and here it would be four different ones plus the guitar and maybe even more, not to mention that you also have to adjust it xD
What is the best condenser XLR microphone for around $35? I'm looking for a low noise, balanced tone and a nice proximity effect. Preffered polar pattern cardioid obviously. Will be used for voiceovers/podcasts
"i am a mid fanatic, just give me all of the mids"
- has mids turned down on pedal
Hahahaha’ glad you caught that!
This is so cringe, but I regret nothing!
