Hey! Looks great! Hit us up via the website, maybe we can figure out how to work on it! Thanks so much for the shout out and for watching!!! -Bob
Can’t wait to see the Rhett Shellf
@@GuitarBeard Shullf
lets go!! 😃
weww
@@GuitarBeard that GOT ME. I would buy that in a heartbeat.
Totally recommend Synology for NAS, since you asked. I got one for archive purposes and within a year, it's wormed its way into my workflows so much I couldn't continue without it. It's been utterly rock-solid, sits down in the basement so zero noise. It is The Thing.
How fortunate are we today, to get interesting stuff like this to watch, that is also informative and educational atst. Thank you Rhett.
Indeed and better than TV.
Because you asked for suggestions: I would recommend building a cloud over your mix position, and some additional diffusion or absorption on that big ceiling! Glad that the studio is coming together!
Linus from LTT used to colab all the time with lots of people to help set up NAS stuff. Could be a cool colab that people wouldnt expect
YT channel Gamers nexus is based in North Carolina and is another resource. Steve just did a video on there NAS system.
Creators like Rhett most definitely need a NAS server for storing everything. That’s gonna be a collab I’d be hyped about.
Yeah but Linus will drop a guitar
+1 for gamer’s nexus
@@kurdtjohn Yes, that would work, but he needs to get it off site for backup. Cloud storage is cheap, efficient and highly reliable. A stand-alone raid NAS for daily backup, then send it up once a day. To stand up a proper server w/raid is $$$$! Then it also has to be managed. If Rhett doesn't want to, or can't do that he would have to hire someone. Getting into even more $$$$. --gary
I've been waiting for this video like you wouldn't believe. Great video Rhett.
Are you going to do a tour video when Rhett gets the basement finished? That would be an epic 🤝
I can't believe this is free content. Thank you for putting this together Rhett, you're a unique voice in this world of guitar. Excited for what will come out of this space for you (and us!)
The fact that you think this is free … shows how low your iq is… god society has failed….
To be fair, the design of the amp rack is pretty simple. All anybody would need to know is;
- The overall height, width and depth
- The thickness of the timber used
- The width timber shelf.
- The height of a timber side section.
- The width and thickness of a metal brace.
Love the videos buddy. Keep them coming!
I’m having pretty positive vibes regarding your live room and dream studio, I know you’ve done a lot work, experienced manny problems and stuff but finally I can see it being complete
Great Studio tour, especially all the nerdy YT stuff! Love my Sennheiser MKH50. Best piece of gear I bought in the last few years!
Watching Bob & Rhett work together would be the next step in expanding the YT cinematic universe.
The new M2 Mac minis are great, too. I just got an M2 Pro mini and it's ridiculously powerful. And definitely yes about the T7 drives.
It's quite the fascination to get the BTS on how the magic works. That transparency is always appreciated. Hope the studio production is, indeed, going well.
For long term storage and daily use, external magnetic drives are actually a better way to go. SSDs have a finite lifespan of reads and writes and the "fuller" you keep a drive and add/remove large files (read as large video files) the faster you will wear out an SSD. This is especially true on a computer that does not have a replaceable internal SSD. Bottom line is, anything important on an internal SSD needs to be backed up externally and the cost of backing up archives with external magnetic drives is infinitely cheaper these days.
Thanks Rhett, super interesting and thorough! Looking forward to the studio update with the same stuff!
Thanks for the breakdown of your studio. I'm always learning something new from your videos.
Great video! I have been around music and music gear all my life, hardly seems like 62 years, it went by pretty quickly! I'm glad to see that all the old gear is still being used today, like patch bays, mic pre's, tube powered compressors, tube amps, etc... Good luck with the new studio build, I'm looking forward to seeing it completed, up and running.
Rhett, congratulations on your continued success! watching you grow has been really inspiring and the consistent hard work you've been putting in deserves all the success you have gotten! I'm not a professional musician, but as a hobbyist I love watching you because unlike some other creators, you always have a strong budget in mind, so your judgement of gear value is something I have come to really appreciate! Here's to another decade of success! Good luck!
You really know how to give me a GAS flare up. My sales engineer thanks you. I can’t believe it’s been 2 years since you’ve been in that room.
Thank you for making this video, Rhett. Seeing other setups really help rationalize what gear is truly important and helps me limit myself to create even better music.
Your channel has been a pretty huge inspiration for a lot of the work I do on my own channel, so thanks for that and for the in-depth look behind the scenes today!
This is such a killer video. Thank you Sir! As a person who's had a rather larger home studio setup, I really appreciate your commitment to expanding. Over the last decade you've grown your setup to make room for more. Meanwhile, I've simplified my setup from 48 channels down to 8. You seem to have a killer ability to manage more gear and channels. I need to reconsider my decisions. I've tried to reduce studio gear to make creating simple. And while it is helping a lot with workflow, maybe it's stagnating growth. All the details here were super necessary. I really appreciate you addressing everything. You're a legend 🙌 Cannot wait for new tracks!!
Good on ya Rhett. I find re-wiring so cathartic.
Thank you for this! I’ve been a guitar player for years but I’m just starting to get into the home studio world and I’m in so far over my head I don’t know whether scratch my watch or wind my ass sometimes…this was so informative! Much appreciated!!!
I love that what Rhett is using as a "monitor controller" is capable of rather faithfully recreating everything he is doing with his outboard gear all by itself.
congrats on the progress looking forward to see it all come together
It’s great to see how much you have grown! I have been enjoying your channel for years :)
Rhett thank you so very much for the wonderful content that you provide for us all! You are a blessing!
So informative, relaxing, fun to watch! So much gear to understand to one day improve my humble home studio and music.
Thank you for showing your patch box and how you make connections. I've never seen how things like this works
Totally the video I didn't know I needed to see! Thanks!
Nice deep dive on your studio setup. As a many decades long home recording artist and gear head, I really enjoy seeing how other people use, configure and achieve their goals with the gear they have. Always something new to learn. Thanks ~
Great walk through .. and thank you for starting by defining the gear, and the problem it solves for you.
it’s really incredible how far Rhett has taken this channel. Congrats, Rhett and incredible work. I’ve been with ya since the basement broom closet. I’ve been a huge fan ever since the original Skylark video. Oh, by the way… small amps are the shit; always have been 🤘🏻
love ya
Wow, I just found your channel and with only a few minutes of listening the way you explain everything, right to the point and educational at the same time you got me subscribed to your channel. I connected with your ideas and way of thinking right away. I have not even checked the rest of your tutorials but this is more than enough to get me interested as a musician and home recording novice myself. My span of attention is very short, but You truly got my attention.
This is such a useful and interesting video Rhett! Thank you for going into so much detail and answering so many questions a lot of people (myself included) would have! 🙌🏻
Very informative video Rhett. Excellent work. More studio equipment, set-up and operation videos please.
Very cool and thorough..Good luck with the new studio downstairs!
Synology stuff is great for NAS storage IMO. Great video. I love all the gear you've collected over the years.
Another great job. Although a lot of your videos may not pertain anything I'm currently working on , I find them very entertaining, hold my attention and I'm always learning something that I may benefit from in the future. Continue to keep up the good work. Very nice studio set up and gear. That stuff is fun
Wow, I stayed up way past my bedtime watching this, lol! You did a great job explaining the details of stuff I have never seen but now have a decent understanding of. Similar to your videos explaining the tones of certain gear and how it's unique sound is created. Those are my favorite videos on your channel.
Love seeing you break down how your set up is put together. I’d get overwhelmed ! Simplicity lets me make something more quickly. Using just a focusrite 2 input pre and a few effects in the daw if needed.
Great Video 🎉
I appreciate the behind the scenes peek and tour, as well as the explanation of each piece.
Glad to hear you have the live room in progress, even if it's temporary.
Looking forward to hearing more in the future
Very exciting stuff man!!
Can’t wait to see that Masco Amp video! Love that little thing.
I'm going to be watching this video a lot as a reference! So much great information! Thank you!
Man I just gotta say I’ve been a subscriber for a while and watched your stuff but never really watched a whole lot all the time until I started watching the dipped in tone podcast recently. I have been listening to tone talk with Dave Friedman for a long time now anytime I work on anything at home or need something in the background and I put dipped in tone right up there with it. Awesome podcast for gear and tone geeks.
Thank you, Rhett and Sweetwater for doing another giveaway. It looks as if your studio is coming along nicely.
Btw, I have owned several pairs of Sennheiser headphones of various quality over the years; over the ear with open as well as closed sides and earbuds as well. They have changed the way I listen to recorded music. Just thought I would mention it.
Keep it up, Rhett.
Great to see you are making progress. It will all be worth it for the future. Best of luck 🥰
SWEET....water. nice way to combine what you love, helping your assistant, give Sweetwater advert., and keep subscribers happy. I think that's a win-win win-win technically
I now finally understand patch bays because of this video. Thank you Rhett!
Great out, Rhett! Thanks for this one. I've been waiting for this for a long time. In just less than 2 months, I'm going to be moving which means my whole bedroom studio is getting torn down and rebuilt. It's gonna be a big job but it'll be worth it when it's done.
That was an awesome video, thanks Rhett!
Right on man! everything is coming up Milhouse with the Studio!!!!!!!
Oh man I loved this one. Thanks for sharing Rhett!
Nice, great to see a new setup video.
very cool.I appreciate the walk through of everything!
Extremely informative, good job Rhett
Your content is always so inspiring! Hoping one day I have a studio like this. So many creative ideas flow every time I walk into a room full of instruments and equipment :)
Awesome video. I would love to see this become a short series were every now and then you drop a long video and go through all your guitars, amps, pedals, etc. I would click those in a heartbeat!!
One of the things I've liked since the move to the new house is that your studio is lit by ambient light. I like Rick's videos, but I've always felt like he's coming in from his studio cave. Having natural ambient light in your video makes them look a lot warmer. When your studio is done you might consider continuing to do you videos in the upstairs room.
Great set-up! In my experiance recording vocals, plate reverbs seem to be the most useful and sound best although I do love those old Fenter tanks for many different tasks!
I’ve been a video editor/motion gfx artist for 20 years. I’ve been using Dropbox for the last 8-10 of those and it’s been amazing. I never worry about losing anything and it makes mobility a whole different thing. I can work literally anywhere. I don’t just use it for backup. I work from my Dropbox folder that is synched to my 4tb internal. I can choose what is available offline with a mouse click. I’ve never ever had a problem.
Dope studio! Super stoked to see the new space come together. Also awesome to see you mention the Elk Bridge. Some friends and I each picked one up. It's been unreal being able to jam with a friend who lives across town or in another state on demand.
Spam is best on bread not here
Another great vid. Thanks for being super cool when I randomly bothered you at that show in Atlanta last Sunday 😄
Yes! I have been waiting for this!
I learned so much watching this. Thanks!
Thanks so much for sharing Rhett!👍🏼🙏🏼
Very good information ! Your explanation is very good ! I am amatuer and trying to learn to setup a home music studio mostly to record my own music ...i found lot of good info from this video !
This is an awesome video - thank you!!!
Looking great Rhett, good luck with it all...
Rhett, I'm a commercial photographer. 40 years of experience, 50 as a guitar player. You are right on the money with the photo and video gear. I have the a1. Incredible for stills and video. Te gear you have is perfect for what you do. Your knowledge of white balance really enhances your videos.
I was being interview last year and the podcaster did not know how to get the yellow tint out of the videos during test shots. 10 year old Canon, I scrolled through the menu and adjusted the white balance. Viola!
Everything matters. Especially if you are very discerning. Never play out of tune. Always get the white balance right.
Fantastic video. Excellent insight & high quality gear.
Ang angas boss! Bilang newbie, lahat naintindihan ko kahit dapat basic setup lang pinapanood ko. Pero eto kahit komplikado naging madali sa pagunawa ko. Maraming salamat sa lahat ng effort, really appreciated
Thanks for the tour Rhett, excellent!
Great studio! love your setup and amp shelf. It looks strong and when you add up the weight of some of these amps, ya it needs to be strong, which is something I need to look into myself. We have a crqck and Barrel up here in Vancouver, so I'll check them out. As far as suggestions for sound acoustics in your studio, I have not much to add as I am still learning myself, which is why I come to your setup to learn, However, I always thought that a wedge sounding room with ceiling fans would maybe cause a doppler affect when mixing with fans spinning, but I could be wrong. Anyway great studio, and love your channel.
I always learn a lot from your channel! Thanks 👍🏽👍🏽
awesome information right here. cannot wait for the results of the first live recordings from the black room :)
It is a good idea to use the new studio live room ‘as is’. Nothing is ever perfect in life. Your ability and live energy matter more than waiting for the perfect setup. Good on you. Great video.
For the bass issues, use Owens Corning 703, 6" thick (three 2" thick pieces) wrapped in acoustic fabric covering the corners. That's what I use and it completely brought my room into line.
Wow, great studio, Rhett. I love how well organized and thought through everything is laid out.
When it comes to backing up or archiving your work, please consider using cloud storage. Renting storage isn't that expensive, and having your data decentralized can be worth its weight in gold. A flood, a tornado, a house fire and all your work is gone. You can insure the house and all the hardware you have, even the hard drives you back up or archive your work on, but once the locally kept back up medias are damaged, the work itself is irretrievably lost. When using cloud services to back up your work, the provider is responsible for all the emergency recovery of storage and computer hardware and in the most cases your data are stored on storage on different locations. It's a pretty good and safe solution.
Your videos are incredible; from the display of your vast knowledge and experience, to the production value of the videos themselves. But after watching this video, I feel soooo small! Right when I was starting to feel like hot shit because I’m setup with a Katana 50 MK II for my “main rig” and a Scarlett Solo plugged into my MacBook for my “auxiliary rig”. Seriously though, congrats on the awesome “mini studio”. Can’t wait to see the subterranean super-studio in action!
Great work. Thanks for video
Hi Rhett! I have the same Gator desk, on "trick" you can do is position the top rack about 5 or 10 cm deeper so that the edge of the rack slightly hangs over the edge of the table below. I secured it with a couple extra brackets and works great. Jusg if you want to gain a bit of workspace
Glad you finally did this! ❤
So great to see the Great River pre's! Dan Kennedy, the guy behind Great River is a friend of ours. Most brilliant electronic guy I know.
great 🎉🎉🎉🎉video
love the patchbay part - i understand better now how it works - thank you
First thought, WOW I can really hear the difference between the rooms.
And of course I’m full of ideas for acoustic fixes.
Thank you Rhett. This is gold brother.
It amazing to see all the money spent on audio gear that only adds small percentage of quality, but not spend a $1000 for a decent 4 bay Nas (or cloud storage) to backup all their valuable work. Thanks for the studio walkthrough. Appreciate the videos!
Excellent video on video and sound!😊
Looks Terrific
well another great !!!!! video im sure it will become a pure platinum classic!!!!!!!! always so nice an informative. be safe an thank you for all you do. stay safe.
Hey Rhett. Great video! You might want to move those external disc drives away from your speakers with big MAGNETS in them, just to be safe. 😬
Great video. Super complex stuff but that felt simple to digest.
Yeah cloud over mix position and i would fill that entire up stairs shelf bit with rockwool batts make it a giant bass trap. You could re purpose all of that into the control room downstairs when it's time to move the control room set up
Very Excited for you!!!!! It looks awesome already. Will you be insulating the ceiling? Really dug this overview of your studio gear.
Hey Rhett. Thanks for the video, great content ! For your network storage, I would say go with the best (fastest and biggest) Synology NAS you can afford. There are a lot of alternatives to Synology, many are cheaper, but the software that runs on the Synology is second to none. You can use it to record and view security cameras, manage, view and share your photos and videos, as well as automatically back up pretty much anything. Give them a shot, you'll never go back.
For your storage use a Synology NAS..I'll suggest use a minimum 4 bay NAS.. and use enterprise level disk....you can connect your external SSDs to the NAS for additional back up... thank me later. This is my set up. and I never worry about storage.... I use a 2020 Intel iMac, 128Gb of Ram, 4TB of storage for plugins, and sound libraries...... all storage goes to my Synology 1817+ (8bay) 72 Terabytes of Seagate Ironwolf enterprise level 12 Terabytes, in 6 bays.... 2 bays contain (2) 2T SSD drives for cache..... This is not cheap.... I spent over $3K for disk, My synology cost me $2K, and the 2T SSD was around $200 each. so a little over $5K just for storage.... My studio room is no where as nice as yours but if you have expensive gear it is important to retain the art. Hope that helps.
Very informative! Really appreciated the info on the patch bay and the shotgun mic. I don't have a patch bay but see now how it could be helpful. I always wondered how they get the voices to sound so natural in tv and movies, now a part of that is revealed. Thanks for sharing the technical without putting me to sleep! PEACE!!
I was intrigued by the patchbay. Why the mini-telco stuff and not TRS 1/4"? I was also struck by the "top row is outputs, bottom row is inputs" notion. After digesting that I had to crawl under the desk with a flashlight and rearrange some cables :D
