Ask The Producer: Ian Pooley (Electronic Beats TV)

[@drummer8491]

One of the greatest producers of all time.

[@wilfullness]

I don't agree. A producer from a time who made some okay records some time ago.

[@aki_gong6271]

Every second is pure gold. What a tremendous masterclass! Thanks for sharing 🙂

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@triggerhappytube]

what a humble and down to earth legend ;)

[@PhatsandSmall]

Excellent interview. So much respect for Ian. He was a driving inspiration for me during the 90's. I was honoured to work with him a few times early 2000's. Great producer/DJ & a super lovely guy 🙂🙏🏽

[@ReasonedWhistle]

so good content! :) I could listen to Ian the whole day

[@souldefunk]

Great questions & answers. Really enjoyed another Ian Pooley video. 👍👏🙂

[@zebmars8944]

Yeah.. great questions and happy it's 30min.

[@leemortimer80]

Ian is a very serious man.

[@101Ezb]

Just a normal german..

[@timchapman1998]

Very cool tho, smiles and laughs during his sets he’s a good vibe

[@davidcogan9936]

Please god. Get this man, talking more, on this show. Love him 🤭🤭

[@Iredidv]

I love the ian pooley interviews. Best ones on eb imo. Great guy and huge knowledge. Less is more is his general message and so true.

[@BDavid-ni8dc]

This guy is legendary to the House community as well as many, many others. IP, we thank you for all your hard work.

[@peoplelikeus123]

I love this guy. Great advice

[@Nick1921945]

I love Chord Memory, and im IN love with Reggy Van Oers Remix.

[@LouisSerieusement]

What a nice and inspiring guy ! Thank you so much for doing an interview of him again !! Questions (and answers) were very relevant ! About ground loops, if anyone is new to this and is struggling with it, try to power all your gear from a single wall socket (and ask if you need help :))

[@skriptico]

thanks man that works... but there's still usbs that are adding noise to my system :( i try to go midi only but sometimes its not possible :'(

[@LouisSerieusement]

@@skriptico is the computer plugged on the same socket as well ? Yes USB is the worst, did you try all USB socket of your computer ? they are not all equal. Also there are some USB cable with ferrite ring but not sure that would help if the noise is coming directly from the computer. You could also investigate if plugging the computer on the same wall socket as everything else is doable (for the amp etc, it probably is but look into it to be sure) Plugging absolutely every gear that are inter-connected to the same socket did it for me in the past. One last thing to look into : try to plug all of this in a different wall socket to see if that helps. Also try to record it and see if it gets into the audio recording or not. One of my friend had an issue like this and it was a neigbhor with an old satellite antena, I hope it's not this lol.

[@nakedcapitalist]

Purchasing a “power cleaner” is another good tip

[@noobslayerr9732]

Such a guru ian is

[@josipgrubisic8149]

So useful for beginners in production.

[@ben1210]

Blessed to have such a legend answer questions I have wondered about for so many years. Massive thanks to Telekom, but most of all to Mr P for the grooves and the memories

[@bangmateo7481]

Awesome interview and great good person. Thank you

[@TillSwims]

Ian ist sympathisch und gibt Infos preis . Besser geht nicht

[@skriptico]

ooooshhh mr Pooley. :O maybe the best producer interview ever right here :O

[@emphatic001]

Such a hero of mine.

[@cqbs]

Great Interview! Thank you !

[@milosmarkovic7640]

Real genius! Thank you for the video :) I listened him live in Chicago

[@ahzootube]

He is such a cool and chill guy. I like it! :)

[@ObscureMachines]

Great Q&A! Liked the bit about the 808/909 output recording differences and why

[@sierrasamusic]

always great to see Ian

[@gabrieljennings5492]

I heard this dude at so often at so many parties in the midwest USA back in the day that I thought he was a local

[@davidgibson8523]

very interesting to listen to such a great producer explain his work so well.

[@masonkiller1]

Good old days!

[@justinb9387]

always enjoy listening to your interviews - interesting - you are like a perfectionist type and its always interesting listening to those kinds of peoples - i have lots of your records yeh !

[@formerself4372]

Damn, those were good questions. Great video.

[@sudbenzer6603]

I Like him.

[@ZAYAZOfficial]

Wasn't there supposed to be a "Nineties Techno Blind test" 4 weeks ago?

[@nathanbell6962]

Everybody needs an MPC

[@LukezyM]

Which one, vintage or new?🙂

[@Sool101]

Willing to share one?

[@69deputy]

3000!

[@froydtrax2]

schon Jroßvadda war beim Eichamt , eine Bresche für MPC ... jenau !

[@TehAwesomer]

It would be appreciated if you could enable auto-captions for these "Ask the Producer" videos. 👍

[@lindsaywebb1904]

What are you syncing about?

[@chrisdigiuseppe7717]

I see that Korg Z1 hiding back there!

[@D3cyTH3r]

Why don't Roland still manufacture 808's/909's?

[@Sool101]

They actually do. Just not the ones you're thinking about I assume?

[@Iredidv]

They have the 808 and 909 in the boutique series, then there is the tr8, and the tr8s with acb (they sound like the originals, approximatly because every 808 and 909 sound a bit different). Then you have clones or better said similar ones like the tanzbarr.

[@scality4309]

They can't. For a small part the sound came from broken defective transistors. They are not around anymore.

[@69deputy]

Too expensive!

[@fkthewhat]

How do you check the key of a kick drum?

[@dany0o]

Ableton Tuner plug

[@aarondicker]

I add an EQ that has a spectrum analyser to the kick track and look for the strongest, highest peak in the low end. If using Ableton, EQ Eight is great for this as you can expand the analyser which gives a small blue box in the bottom lefthand corner, if you put your mouse curser in the centre of the highest peak, the blue box will tell you which note (key) your kick is in. Just make sure the kick is solo'd so the analyser isn't getting information from other elements such as bass.

[@maxi580]

Download Voxengo Span,run kick into it, highest peak is the key of your kick

[@fatalemusic93]

You can also pitch up your sample in your DAW, play around with the kick's tuning until it sounds right then pitch it back down

[@TheStaubzauger]

[@Dirtyvinnie]

The music pieces on this video are all his?

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

Sure

[@topofthemornintoya]

👍

[@scholzdigital]

Sign me up for a masterclass with Ian.

[@tresporros]

cool vid, but 1178 for mastering? nah... good for the drum buss or any buss but I'd never used it for master, it's too heavy for that job

[@LouisSerieusement]

[@le-berry]

Sync is important use multi clock

[@sabotage-music]

Ian Pooley: There's nothing wrong with noise. I enjoy noise. Ok let me add: I don't like humming sounds, it's a nightmare. It drives me insane. 😂

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

there is a big difference between annoying humming and a tasty white noise for example 🤓

[@sabotage-music]

Of course! Only love for swooshes and sprinkles. With great creativity you can create some sweet humming sounds though. Ask Hainbach ;-)

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

😉

[@johnymacarony394]

heirate mich!

[@juanfe98rain]

I think he answered the compression question from a privileged perspective. What about the ones who can't afford to pay for mastering?

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

As people asked him of course it’s his personal perspective.

[@lightningale]

Deleting unfinished projects? Heresy!

[@rauschi3863]

What is his native language? He sounds german.

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

He is german

[@rauschi3863]

@@ElectronicBeatsTV Thanks for the answer. One of his records was the first electronic music records i bought.

Telekom Electronic Beats: the name is unusual though

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

Ian Pinnekamp.

[@lindsaywebb1904]

@@ElectronicBeatsTV ah.. part of the puzzle...I also never met a German called Ian

[@MrRavebase]

Warum müssen die Interviews immer auf Englisch sein? Lasst doch alle in ihrer Muttersprache sprechen und fügt Untertietel hinzu.

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

Da das Format international ist und so ziemlich jeder Englisch kann liegt das auf der Hand. Untertitel nur im Notfall, weil das nicht wirklich Spaß macht mitzulesen beim anschauen.
