This device looks cool, but we need to see 2 Chainz in the most expensive studio known to man

[@Studio23Media]

I'm not sure where the most expensive is, but the university I went to has a recording studio with four control rooms spread around it, each of them over $250k each. It's an insane setup

[@StLMikie]

I worked in a studio in St. Louis that has a mixer that supposedly cost a mill.

[@sever427]

Exactamundo I been had this on my home pc

[@adamsemail8899]

Probably Deadmau5

Probably Kanye west's studio that he has in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma

This piss-poor presentation does not do this device justice. Painfully embarrassing. Check out other videos. (Admittedly, lots more lame ones...)

[@champaklalgada5110]

Naa this episode isn't as your earlier one's, seems like a full-programmed ad.. Even the video editor isn't feeling the vibes seems like. Cause he is always up to the mark

[@Kn1ghtMayor]

I bought this early on, it’s good for just testing out ideas. I have used it to record vocals, but I still sent them out to be added to a track. Also it’s 8 tracks only so you have to use them wisely. 1 for the instrumental, lead, adlibs, and doubles if you need it. I’ve been waiting for auto tune also. But ultimately don’t buy this thinking you can live with out the real studio. Not yet at least.

[@slaternapier1640]

Yea, my macbook with garage band / logic pro seems like it would be easier for me to record and edit etc than this thing..but the price point is probably the selling point here as my laptop is just as portable, if not easier to use, but a few thousand more.

[@FreshTopEnd]

this show might possibly have the greatest editor of all time

[@TheNumbasign2]

Just bought a 200$ one today. It’s called an iPhone 6s Plus. With koala to produce and GarageBand to record and mix.

[@volcomintality8638]

This is the most reasonably priced thing on this show 😂 Felt more like an ad vs some ridiculous prices product.

[@iPartyHardcore]

No the most reasonably priced item was the magnetic weed storage box that look like a book. Plus that product was actually good enough to consider buying.

[@jacobsanders5564]

This editor 😂😂😂

[@QuickQuips]

Izotope is solid (mostly for their plug-ins) but a zoom does a good enough job. It's not that expensive either... I'd love for him to check out expensive studio equipment though.

[@jaero2144]

@QuickQuips man if ur talkin bout the old school zoom all in one mpc lookin thing then I totally agree, first thing I ever used to record by myself because it was pretty self explanatory and simple to use, the one I had came with a disc drive where u could directly bounce the song to cd but mine never worked lol, I would connect a monster cable from the zoom to my laptop and send the vocals to ProTools that way, that thing was dope!!!

[@prexst]

@@jaero2144 I think they mean the zoom handheld portable recorder

[@vinceyouvella7261]

Question how good the audio on live recording cuz I kno this device wont cover much needed drums n bass or can produce the sound we looking for.

[@madisonham5384]

So a laptop isn’t considered portable anymore?

[@crnkmnky]

Sure, but which laptop includes a proper mic and audio interface for $300?

[@jdavis1286]

This is a music note pad, great size and portable. Good for scratch tracks. I use a zoom H5 that doubles as an audio interface, plus 4 tracks, plus phantom power, plus field recorded, plus a mix down deck.

[@ericcruz1757]

After watching this, should rename to "Most Affordable"

[@JCsongwriter1]

I think it was a sneaky way to advertise the product 🤔

[@niganools1501]

I watch this series whenever I can!

[@callousconflict]

good for rough ideas but i still take my entire studio wherever i go in my bookbag lol only annoying thing is the pop filter.. laptop, mic, and interface is pretty easy to take around

[@leeasbury7273]

I've been watching this since the debut a few years ago. It was almost ready for launch...$300 I believe. I was never sure if there is a drum machine on board... if not, the Zoom R8 looks better for my use. And the Tascam DP03sd even though no drum machine, I play drums... The Spire did something cool like upload your finished music to platforms for public consumption?

bruh he should hv made it longer. I thot it was like a studio not a mic lol

[@tomblaze2]

spire studio actually is very solid and is constantly improving - the beat that was played was a bit wack to say the least - but you can cook up fire with this device alone - Best part of video is the possibility of iZotope cooking pitch correction/auto-tune into the vocal fx

[@ositocrs]

Yo I wanna kno who makes the cartoons for they videos lol

[@eht12369]

What’s ironic is that anyone who knows anything about the music business knows that $300 is like the least amount of money you will ever spend on something. That’s 1/4th of the cost of the microphone that Billy Eilish records with; Half the cost of a Pro Tools perpetual license; 1/8 the cost of a Macbook pro. This content doesn’t belong on most expensivist- it is a straight up advertisement!!!

[@bigdubbossman9932]

This is great to start the ball rolling on making a song. If you want to boost it then you can go to a studio and have your engineer add on to it. But if you can you can complete it on your own if you know how to master music.

[@alfreddreamer9097]

Can you create your own beats on it? I had a Zoom R8 about 2years ago, but you had to use the beats the machine had, you couldn’t create your own, only choose from the machine”’s selection of beats. You could speed them up, slow them down, etc. but not create your own. Also, can you loop vocals like they do in a lot of EDM, and hip hop songs? Loop short phrases, words, etc.?

[@stellarshores8565]
