Got the Alpha 80, the old one. I need more monitors for another studio, wonder if Alpha Twin Evo or Alpha 80 Evo are te best for me. Anyone know the two ? Im ok to consider stuff that cost more, but only Focal.

Hi Archie...It would translate the artist also in other languages like spanish?

i keep trying to use a voice on the free plan and it says "you are not allowed to use this voice, upgrade plan" so which voices can you use on the free plan?

The legato sounds pretty good but unconnected runs still sound synth-like to me - at least when you play them quickly on the keyboard. Maybe it was the result of using the legato articulation but not overlapping the notes played.

What compressor would recommend for a home studio : my vocal chain audient id24 + Wa73 + Wa8000

there you go, you don't sound harsh this time.

AB i like the new UAD vocal plugin suite but why buy it when you have a great hardware vocal chain?

You should really keep a space above your Apollos . The manual calls for under 104 degrees ambient air . A lot of units go for repair because of blocking the tops

Video freezing

Laptop or PC is best to start with?

Thank you all for watching. These are just SOME of my top black friday deals. Check out Sweetwater's Black Friday Sales here: sweetwater.sjv.io/baV2Kv

i just purchased a TLM 103 to pair with my Neve 1073. still working on getting it dialed. just plugging the 103 into the neve with plain-jane settings is already great! thanks for your videos.

nice

What do you think about the Neve 2254 r mono limiter compressor? I’m thinking of getting a 1073 SPX and then going through the 2254 compressor for a vocal chain. Any Ideas or suggestions.

Wow!

TLM 103 Into A Neve 5025 Shelford Dual Pre going into the Neve Diode Bridge Comp, into an Apollo x8. But I also use both the stereo pre and comp for my mix bus, then go into a vitalizer mkII. Printed back in the box and finished with required mastering fixes. Then clip (for loud music) then limiter

Nice, Archie. Good review. Excellent machine. Unfortunately, too $ for my thin wallet. I am in the market for something akin to it...though at a less threatening my survival cost. A.R.T. just came out with something similar (of course, more basic and not in the same top shelf league) in their Solo line for about $300. Closer to my sweet spot. Have a great Turkey Day!

Thank you all for watching. I'm not kidding, this is one versatile compressor. For more information, check it out here: sweetwater.sjv.io/LKXa0O

His u87 was modded! It has a tube in it!

But what plugins were used on the Apollo? What unison pre?

This mic sounds SO smooth, with a nice sparkle to it. It captures the nuances of a voice like very few others at this price point can.

✌🏼

I got a question I just bought a GoXlr and a sm7db and my mic doesn’t work am I missing something?

sounding great, archie! really, really nice! i just purchased one used and can't wait to receive it. thank you so much for your content. really good!

Best mic I have ever owned. I got rid of every other mic I owned, kept only the e835. Great for all applications, tough as nails and most importantly sounds great on all sources, easy to eq to how you want it to sound.

EMTs are plate reverbs. One of the first types of artificial reverb, the plate reverb was originally produced using a magnetic driver (think of a speaker coil) to initiate (drive) vibrations in a large sheet of metal. The large metal plate (usually six to seven feet long by three to four feet wide) vibrated via a signal passed from a transducer. The vibrations were then captured with a contact microphone. The result was dense, warm, and inviting. The EMT 140 is easily the most celebrated of the early plate reverb designs, and it was a mainstay at Abbey Road Studios in the 1960s. Thus, you can hear it all over the Beatles’ and Pink Floyd’s early recordings.

Does the midi sound the same as the twin x duo?

Well… few things here. I didn’t use an 87, I removed all the internals and built a custom handmade tube mic from the body and capsule. I would use the gml pre, adding a tiny bit of 5khz on the eq, the GML gives you the raw sound of the microphone. I then would run the output to the BAE 1073 line input and use the filter and eq circuit. Depending on the song I would use the CL1b, shadow hills mono opto, or a bae 1176 (500c). I also modded the tube tech with telefunken NOS tubes to give a less transparent and unique character. This is also our home set up, at studios the chain would change up all the time.

Are those speakers ds8s?

Why not just take the 1073 eq and run it through my interface? Thanks in advance.

BRO your studio might be at home but definitely its not a home studio for me that's a dream space, there are popular i mean very popular artist who've never stepped in this comfort or beside this tools i mean what i see. and thank you so much for the video

AB, would you get this for yourself even when you have a great vocal chain with outboard gear? If so, why?

Love the Chappel show reference. I can't believe they tried to cancel him. Prince was unique. He is a legend, I wish I could have seen him live.

I use them everywhere in the yard 😂

Will it work if I use an mp3 guitat track for a metal song?

Hey nice video , I have one question , how would you combine the osmose with the mpc live 2 . I purchased a osmose and I realized its not possible to use it with midi programmes because the Osmose is a mpe controller . I am a little confused how to use it together . Greetz from Germany

I wish i can mix like you master ❤️❤️❤️

I have a question, is this better than the rode nt1? Should i pick this over the rode

3 minutes to get to the point? Jesus.

So i know the trio series are like 5 times the price how far off is the sound quality on the twin evo compared to the trio?

Bro I’m on Amazon rn what’s your best recommendation under 100 in 2024 trying build this home studio

Does it allow you to make unique voices by chance?

hello, i got a Shure m7b mic and whenever i try to use it to record on my logic pro 11 breaks. for example, if i sing a long word it breaks and doesn't record everything, it is so annoying and frustrating, please do you know the reason for this? because i used same mic to record in fl studio and it works fine except that i only like to make beats in fl studio and prefer to record vocals and mix with logic

Nice Video, voice sound great! Looking to do wa12 with wa73 and wa2a in the future for a vocal chain

Sir, if you want to conect a subwoofer where is the out for this ? I read this new 2 GEN have on his software the posiblity to conect with this. thnaks

Chevy Small Block, Dodge HEMI, Ford Coyote. A V8 in hell is still a V8... KRK too. 😃

That’s the reality for you, my reality is a okay interface and okay laptop with okay mic and knowledge of fl studio, I wish I had that gear or you’re intelligence when it comes to music mixing, be grateful for what you have now so you won’t give it, change it, and regret it later.

Just got a Future track check out my Channel released on all platforms this month!!!!!!! Thanks @ArchieBeatz!

Can you send me that mic if your not using it pleased
