Please let me clear up a few latency issues I was talking about.
Of course I know it's possible to get a unnoticeable low latency, I myself do not have latency issues with the RME soundcard. But from experience, seeing a lot of other systems, loads of comments, I just know for a fact that there still are a lot of people that have to deal with problems. Maybe I was a bit on the low side with 4-8 ms, I said those numbers from memory. Let's make it 8-16 ms then :) That's all for now! Cheers!
Paul Davids Good call, I was just about to tell you that a latency of 8 ms is equivalent to standing about 3 meters from you amp. This is in practice what one often does, without problems. 16 ms is 6 meter. This starts to become annoying. That being said, many people complain that no matter how small a buffer they use, they still have latency issues. This often turns out to be a usb problem, where the usb chipset buffer more than the soundcard.
Hi! Could you make a tutorial on mic positions for recording solo acoustic guitar(especialy the ones that could work great in any type of room) and how properly eq and so on.
I'm trying to keep things simple. But I'm having serious consistency issues, with some recordings sounding amazing directly out of the zoom h5, just needing to adjust the gain. In other instances some frequencies just come out too hot and unpleasent to hear for long periods of time.
Yeah. The issue of latency and modelling software. I know exactly what you mean and I'm bloody glad that I don't feel the 5ms of latency anywhere nearly as much as someone like you does. Ola Englund also mentioned exactly the same problem especially when it comes to playing at high tempos, solos for instance. I don't think it's something that can ever be solved. It's a problem that all hardware is naturally going to have. The signal has to travel and be processed. Unless we break the laws of physics we're going to have latency no matter how much the technology we use improves.
Yes it's often because the reported latency doesn't include all chain members like the USB device itself and effects that may increase the perceived latency very fast.
Hi Paul, I use Logic Pro, which comes with a Low Latency feature you cant run on and off with the click of an icon. Works great.
Sweet. Now how do I play guitar?
Practice what you’re not good at every day for 2 years straight
googleisFascist 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
relatable and i forgot i need to buy a guitar as well
Paul should have started with that! Hahahahahaha your comment made my day! :)
30 years of practice
What goldmine for newbies. It took me months to learn all of this bit by bit and you covered it all in a few minutes. Your video chops are on a par with your guitar skills, which are top notch, and you are an engaging teacher. You take the time and put the effort into the details, which is noticed and appreciated.
+1. I slogged through learning to record via a Scarlett 2i2 and StudioOne. Still so much to learn, but this video definitely highlights some of the basic questions I used to have.
I agree with James. The video editing here is awesome.
totally wish I had this video back in 2015😅😂
I came here to say the same !
The editing on your videos is insanely well done, even those little sound effect additions, great job and thanks for the content
I concur!
Was thinking the same thing
@Big Dragon I'm pretty sure the GT40 has a midi out that you use to connect to your pc so in theory the amp should become your interface, with that being said, im not sure if the on-board effects and patches will transfer over with the GT40 but with my katana, the effects work perfectly on recordings
Honestly I find it distracting. Are we trying to make entertainment or are we trying to pass on important information? PD is knowledgeable and talented no doubt. I really think these videos would be easier to take in without all the bells and whistles.... Content itself rules...
@@DMDvideo10 My thoughts exactly, all this extras are unnecessary and confusing.. can u imagine Satraini giving a lesson with all these distraction?

Brilliant content superbly delivered!
Whoa Rick I'm a big fan you're playing is insanely superhuman
MAke a tutorial on mixing and mastering a song.
Suryakant that could be 337 videos
Yeah he shld do one. Im tired of just opening adobe audition to slap on basic ass mastering and reverbs
Yes yes yes!! That would be valuable info for sure!!
That would have more episodes than Supernatural
Suryakant
How about saying PLEASE instead of giving orders!
Thank you obi wan kenobi you’re my only hope
Amazing graphics @3:46
NAILED IT,Paul!!!!
Turning complexity into simple clarity is an art form. Add humor to the mix and you create enjoyable entertaining knowledge. Thanks' you do it so well and it is appreciated.
my kids will never understand that you once had to pay for content of this high quality.
You are amazing at taking pretty dull, technical, and difficult topics (for non-recording geeks), and making them intelligible and even fun!
Haha love the bloopers at the end. Be honest, how many times did you have to jump for that jump edit?
the bloopers are so he can hit 10:01

4:09 behind you Paul...WTF 😲😲
Probably his wife
no he is a virgin
Eagles Eyes eh mate.😎
He has ghosts living with him
Hope they pay rent smh
That's the phantom power he's talking about
I don't know why your videos have the most relaxing audio i have ever heard in a video,it sounds so quiet and smooth for the ear. Whatever the case,great job and thanks for the video, it's quite helpful
Hey dude ,Your videos are really awesome. It helps me a lot. Thanks a lot for your uploads..
I just loved this video! The compilation, the level of knowledge, and the sequence of presenting were so clear! I loved the special effects too! Thanks for sharing all this info definitely helpful for someone to see the whole process!
I lay down, eyes closed, and listen to Paul's voice when I'm anxious
Recording yourself is a great way to have a record of your own progress too...being able to keep the focus on how far you've come helps to alleviate the 'I'll never be good enough' crap that we all deal with from time to time... Always enjoy your vids Paul...
Dude, thank you so much for all your videos. I have been playing for more than 40 years now and I still learn from your videos. Thanks for sharing your valuable info freely....
I'm a singer/songwriter and play acoustic so for me a Scarlett 2i2, Oktava 319, Reaper DAW = Done. Thanks for the vid Paul, can you do a basic one on mixing? I'll admit that the who EQ/COMP thing is kicking my butt. You always get such good sound for your videos, it's the thing about them that first caught my attention.
And me, for the love of god cant understand why oktava was never in somebody's preferred brand. Like holy shit this thing is as good as shure's. Russian made stuff screams quality all over it.
For anyone starting out on a budget, I highly recommend the Fender Mustang V2 for a plug and play audio interface with basic amp modelling which take the horrid 'direct line in' sound you get. You can also escape the latency issue because you can hear your recording through your amp - rather than your monitor speakers - which is a great option if you like creating and jamming over backing tracks.
Many people have mentioned it before, but I just have to confirm it once more. The amount of details and work you put into your videos is amazing. They're quality videos with awesome editing work. We really appreciate it, thanks!
Didn't happen to me before, but I liked this video in less than 30 seconds, it's something very relaxing and pleasant to watch, a mix of Paul's charisma, high budged microphones and perfect editing skills. Keep up doing this man!
This is actually one of the most straight to the point and clearest explanation of guitar recording i’ve ever watched
I'm pissed you didn't mention Reaper. Guys, it cost 60 euros, it can be used free of you don't mind an occasional pop-up, and it's THE most customizable one on the market.
Thanks for the info!
These days, Cakewalk by Bandlab is totally free and also very good.
You know that reviewers on youtube suggest things that can get them some affiliate bucks through amazon's referral links, right? If you have a look at the description you'll get your answer. Nobody cares for a cheap software, no matter how good it is, because it won't make them a single $.
@@Bromoteknada Other reviewers, yes. But I wouldn't expect that from Paul. People who do this just for the money, never get this good at it. Reaper is free but it's great and if it empowers the less financially gifted musicians among us, then I'm sure he cares about it.
@@IshanAditya Reaper is not free. It literally says so in the About/License dialog box. The fact that you can abuse the technically unlimited evaluation period is another matter. Stop being a cheapskate leech and cough up the 60 bucks. The application is worth 10x that.
I've just watched several videos covering pretty much the same topic, and yours is by far the most enjoyable.
I knew all of this but it’s so great to hear it spoken about with such clarity - I wish I watched this years ago, would have made my journey faster and simpler
Paul: the L word...
Me: lesbians?
Paul: ...latency
Me: :(
"I'm in latency with you..."
This made me laugh out loud xD I was thinking the same
same here....
LMAOOO!!! 🍻🔥🔥🔥:-(

How do you not have 10 millions subs!? The Goat! Awesome work as always!
Really helpful, I always had this question in my mind about how complex recording guitar was, and most videos in youtube are not as complete and as informative as this one. Thanks Paul! Cheers from Chile.
Wish I had this video like 5-6 years ago. It would have saved me so much time and energy! Great beginners guide!
You are a bastion of hope and inspiration in a sea of "ME TOO CLICKBAITY TITLES BUT SHALOW CONTENT" that's been plaguing RUclips. Keep it classy, Mr. Davids. Thank you for existing.
I’d love to see how you mix your acoustic guitars. Seems like a lot of compression is a big part of the sound, which I love! Really wanna be able to replicate it!
Paul, you're becoming one of my favourite youtubers! seriously, your videos are amazing, well made and never boring!
I'm not sure If I'm more impressed with how informative this video his, or how good you video editing is.
And again, thank you for all of this :) Hot beverage and sweet guitar talk time !
Rémi Vallet nice profile picture
Great tutorial man but the EDITING on this is amazing
The most multi-effects, well-rehearsed and intelligent video about this topic on RUclips so far, congrats bro!
Not boring at all! This is really, really important information for both newbies and audio veterans alike. Thank you for summarizing the process so effectively!
4:07 There's a ghost behind the door
When you flashed latency on the screen my soul nearly jumped out of my body. Haha.
That evil thing called latency.
Loved the video
Top tips that I wish I could have got in the early days of recording.
Hi Paul! Congrats, just the best and clearest set of vídeos and tutoríals i’ve seen so far. Keep it up!
Thank you so much for this, and all your other videos! I've been recording myself on ukulele using my cellphone for a while now, and I've found it to be a wonderful way to improve my playing and singing skills. I've got a Focusrite interface on my Christmas list and I'll be picking one up in January if I don't get one before then.
Wow...it's very useful bro. And please help on editing tone in guitar processors by how to set a tone and to get good output in guitar amp
plug in monitor headphones directly into the interface, that usually will help with latency problem
I find this far from boring and really useful. Thank you Paul!
Thanks so much for this video! I've been looking for a reliable guide on how to record for a long time so this is really great! Keep up the good work!
Am waiting for " how to EQ guitar solo into a Backing track ! :)
Can we have a video on where you got your sweater?
TWO SECONDS IN and you are already astounding me on the editing alone!!
Love your vids, Paul. This is one of the best. I still have a smile on my face. Keep it up!
This is great and all but why does your beard look so incredible?
Lmao, ikr! I was trying so hard to focus the whole time but then i was like "God damn, that is one gorgeous beard" xD
If I was gay I would simp for Paul
That's finesse
More so - how?
Glued in when he plays "geetar."
"You can hear my right?"
Jokes on you I'm on mute using subtitles
Your scene transitions had me smiling the whole time, great video!
Wow, Paul you are AMAZING!! I see quality in every things you do. Good job :)
You should do a video about editing
6:13 "Congratulations! You made it through the most boring video ever"

I did? When? Where? Surely not this video...because that wasn't boring at all.
You rock!! So useful and well explained info. I also gave up, like many years ago, and now, thanks to you I'm ready to go home and start my music project again. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
The amount of time and effort to edit this video is commendable. My day job is editing videos but your stuff still amazes me.
Question on setup:
I have an interface, amp, guitar, DAW and a computer. How do I set all this up properly for recording?
Plug your guitar into the amp input, the amp output into the interface input, and the interface to the computer. Use the DAW and under settings you select your audio interface as your audio input. Then create a new audio track (not midi) in the DAW, and on the track settings select which input you'd like to use (1 or 2 if you have a 2 channel interface, 1-4 if you have a 4 channel, etc). Then you should arm the track and record, it should all work out

I found this video helpful for understanding the setup. Hope it helps you too.
I record straight on to my "Walkman".
I record straight into my ears
Thank you Paul! Your channel is very valuable. Your mastery in videography alone blows me away. Love the inspiration you give to so many of us. ❤🎸✌(cheers)
Love the effort and improvements you put into your videos. Great job.
Very good. BYW I just got the UA Apollo Twin Quad and the L Word is gone for me 😃
Where did you get the sweater?
You are very intelligent and very kind to share your knowledge, you have put in many hours of learning and it is a gift to learn from you in a very clear and (entertaining) way. Thank you.
Your content’s production quality is amazing
Ableton Live!? Really? I thought that was just for EDM producers. My bad. Could you explain why, being guitar focused, you like Ableton better than the other DAWs you mentioned? Thanks!
I'm going to assume it does enough to record the guitar well, but also has nice tools for creating the rest of a song without a band by using MIDI.
Ableton has a live looping feature, which allows you to build layers upon layers of music. Much more intuitive if you play any instrument other than the stereotypical habit of EDM producers "copy-pasting and drawing out MIDI notes" on a computer.
Dude @4:09 somebody just walked passed behind your door!!
HOLY SHIT
@@PaulDavids The Pope uses your WC?
it's not unpossible that other people live there

Thank you so much for all your well made videos, I'm glad there's someone like you who puts time and effort into your videos. Whether you do it for the money or not, keep it up. Also I love your accent.
Great video man! So full of information, all important aspects... Bravo! (im playing guitar for 20 years and have been recording a little 10 years ago so now im trying to get back :)
"You think twice before making same mistake again?"
What actually you mean here?
Do not forget to use ASIO, just my two cents
For all!
dude, your sense of humor is excellent. Great info too btw
This video couldn’t have come out at a better time! Been watching videos on this topic all day!

Love your videos, Paul! You always research the subject before you just tell your experience like every other youtube guitarist and that's why it's very hard to disagree with you! Also love your guitar playing, it's very technical which creates confidence. Keep up the good work! Cheerz!
This is just spot on, yesterday I was wondering how do musicians record music and setup the hardware! Great stuff!

Thanks Paul! Your videos are not only educational but fun.
Your production is so well done, Paul!
You are such a smart dude. You deserve so much more recognition and subs
this just oozes art! You are my favorite, Man!
You're videos just keep getting better for every time. 👍
You have a chill way of unfolding the facts. I never click "like". Ever. But you earned it. Well done amigo!
probably the loveliest guy on youtube . your success is well deserved
Nice overview. It’s obvious that you put a lot of time and thought to this video, and you have a very straightforward, understandable way of explaining things.
Thank you for this video, I came into this with very little knowledge about recording and this helped to clear a lot up. I appreciate it!
Excellent informative video. Additional credit for video editing and sense of humor. Great!
Hi Paul! Thank you for a really enlightening and super informativ video!! It’s exactly what I was looking for 😊 nice pullover by the way
Your video audio is amazing, professional. Nice video man.
This is an inspiration for beginners. Thank you, Paul.
Wow, this is insanely well explained. I wish you had already made this video when I was painfully trying to learn all this stuff
Wow. I was JUST doing some research on setting up a beginner home studio, looking at getting a focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (which comes with ableton life), a novation midi controller (because it works well with ableton), and some other essentials and then this video popped up. You’re the man and this has helped me make my decision. Please keep up the good work!
Your videos are not boring. I find them very tasteful and educational.
Well done Paul.. Easy to understand and very comprehensive...you covered all the bases. Thanks.
