deadmau5 and the 5088

deadmau5 is one of the world’s biggest electronic musicians, widely known for his mastery of the digital domain - but the physical and sonic center of his recording studio is a world-class analog mixing desk. Hear him talk about how his Rupert Neve Designs 5088 console fits into his workflow, straight from his home studio in Milton, Ontario.

Proud to see the Rupert Neve Company and Team embracing the work of Deadmau5 as a sponsored video post. Remember hearing him somewhere state that for him as an 'electronic producer' Companies like razer etc were his only sponsored collaborations as some real audio companies like 'neve' would never work down with him. These deadmau5 electronic types are pushing new boundaries and keeping music rocking in a way driving the industry. Old recording setups have stayed largely the same and its just nice to see some collaboration with making the audio gods advertised to the majority of new electronic composers. Good video, great people!

Rupert Neve is like the "Stan Lee" of great audio circuits.

[@ohmaygah3000]

Mr. Neve thank you for uploading this video. The design work just to make all those components (former 94E here) work at all is an immense task but to cause the countless pieces to function as a musical organ so to speak is a superpower. No Soda Cans! lol

[@michaeldelacruz6370]

My school recording school has a Rupert console I believe. I'm glad that these tools are still purposeful in some instances in this era that almost everything seems digital.

[@_moosh]

Dude happy 92! Keep at it, your stuff is why DJs like Joel can be as good as they can.

[@choko2812]

Such a legend! Joel inspires me everyday in my music in addition to that, Rupert has left a insane legacy behind him - I want a RNDIS for my analogue synths! ❤️😊

[@stereofloat]

I also produce electronic music and I have a Rupert Neve Shelford Channel Strip which is like one strip of this console. I can not sum but I can track into my DAW using a fully analog Neve Pre-Amp, EQ and Compression signal path. I can confirm that it adds something unique (weight) to the production and it glues everything together in a very special Neve way. With the Shelford Channel I have now also discover a new way for me to record electronic music, using amps and microphones which wasn´t possible before, because I couldn´t get any usable signal out of a microphone. Now its all there. I love that its build like a military tank and will always be there. Thank you Rupert!

[@siriusfun]

Now get another one for both recording stereo sources as well as summing out to/mixdown and you'll be golden!

[@RupertNeveDesigns]

Thank YOU, Stereofloat!

[@eladreltuc]

I'm in the same boat my friend! I bought 1 Shelford channel...... and it changed my life, and I know you know I'm not joking. There is NOTHING higher to go to.

Joel’s studio is beautiful and that neve desk is heaven on Earth, I’m doing the pauper version on a cassette 4 track yielding similar results (less abrasive)

[@Synth2000]

100% with you on that textured route Joel... congrats for the Neve, i will keep an eye on your next works. Analog boards make mixing quite effortless so you can focus on musicality and just playing.

[@OperculumAudio]

Interesting, he said that in order to capture the true sound of the hardware synths, you really need analog. I went to his We Are Friends Tour, in Houston, and I can attest, his music has this electric feel that is powerfully conveyed in the music. It feels like electricity in the air, especially when the synth builds occur and he opens the filter to the drop. You can almost sense the analog circuit's magic in the air. That is what he is capturing.

[@imicca]

I love Joel's work. it is truly inspiring and his persona embodies so much of internet culture, very relatable for a guy like me, born in 1994. I am hurt every time when I see his name slandered, bashed, defamed. People who want to destroy his career are so many, and especially cannot wait to profit writing bad articles about him, that's all they can do - find anything in him to point out and make it into a headline. I am sorry you lost your twitch audience, the last place I could interact with you (well, apart from instagram and reddit to some degree are left I guess). You were truly one of the first people to ever live stream on Ustream days. It was unheard of. Your rants were the best, your clips about things you talk - watched every day even today... And to see my favorite artist to fall down like that just hurts me. Especially knowing you have some personal problems of your own, apart from crappy internet world. I really wish you best @deadmau5 and please find a way to continue streaming and interacting with fans - you do that the best out of all artists ever. We'll miss your streams.

[@NebulousFumes]

Damm dude i feel you.... 100% truth right there man. God i remember the Ustream days, those were the good times!!

[@Paul-ff7vd]

I'm 100% with you! I've been following him for more than 10 years now, and that was him to make me discover and love the entire world of (not only electronic) music when I was just a child. His first tracks were absolute magic for my ears. Horde will always support you Joel, no matter what fucking bullshit anyone, magazines or not, is gonna spread the world! ;)

Can someone explain the difference between the companies Rupert Neve Designs and AMS Neve? The famous Neve consoles were the AMS Neve company (which still exists and makes consoles) not R.N.D. Not that the name means much but..

[@NikolaiBeier]

They explain it it the 2. point of their FAQ at rupertneve.com/company/faq/ RND seems to have been selling consoles since 2009. It is Rupert Neve's newest company, and not connected to his old company. "AMS Neve" is what the person Rupert Neve sold in 1973 and left in 1975. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neve_Electronics

Watch how you talk about the analog vs digital. Might light some fires. Even though there is a difference. A big one. I love both but tracking with hardware is the only way I like to work. Then plugins make sense

[@callum6224]

Lawrence Moffat what are you talking about? I can name 20 artists off the top of my head that used only laptops on entire albums, who are making some of the most intrepid music out there. They also use analog gear, and can make a laptop sound like a 70s oberheim and Vice versa. If anything, you’re playing with toys if you fetishize gear rather than actually going with what sounds good, not making stupid arbitrary distinctions based on elitist bullshit. I wanna hear your amazing art and see how it compares to mine, mostly using a ‘tonka toy’ but also analog gear too.. but a lot of the times it’s the former only, using drum samples or synth samples that could be analog but it’s impossible to tell.
