Thank you! I watched all 3 and got a great idea on what i need to do! An update video would be nice as well with more dos and donts! Thanks

[@thegodnasr]

Congratulations! It looks great.

[@TheStudioBusiness]

Thank you!

[@user-so4bx2qc7u]

Thanks for the detailed videos! I run a similar studio in Round Rock (north Austin) so these videos help me out a ton! I'm currently perfecting my podcast studio then I might move onto something like this. Keep it up!

[@TheWeighWeWereTV]

Gorgeous!

[@mwpthepodcast]

Good information much appreciated!!

[@coreykaiser2283]

Love the content. Trying to setup something like this in Louisville we have rodecaster with 4 rode mics built a table. Need to work on the backdrop. Still figuring the cameras and everything. Keep up the good work!

[@carlosafortin]

Very nice! My wife and I are working on our "home studio." We plan to use wall slat panels but in a different configuration. Thank you for the info. We are using your video series as a guide.

[@TheStudioBusiness]

Glad it was helpful - good luck!

[@Itcornerbg]

I like it, your advice is always helpful, and I hope to see more :) maybe one day we can do 2face side sharing :)

[@coachjono4729]

Awesome set up! Something that could help the sound is a rug.

[@TheStudioBusiness]

On my to-do list!

[@coachjono4729]

@@TheStudioBusiness nice! Keep the updates coming! I love it!

[@HopKillerBrewery]

Just in time for me to make my bedroom studio! Perfect timing. If I copy you, I’ll make sure to give you the idea credit!

[@TheStudioBusiness]

I'd love that. Thanks and good luck!

[@themeankitty100]

Do you think you could make a video going more in depth about the rodecaster + atem mini pro setup and how that works?

[@HeliSimmer]

Neewer has nice RGB lights that work great as hair lights.

[@TheStudioBusiness]

Which do you think would be best? I'm thinking about getting a 2ft tube light and then just mounting it on one of the pipes above.

[@carlosafortin]

@@TheStudioBusiness That will provide some versatility... I hope, because I am planning on doing the same thing.

[@user-so4bx2qc7u]

Are these spaces all in the same room? So if this space is rented out, does that mean the other spaces are unusable during that time? And do you have to have a staff member for this setup or does the client run it all on their own?

[@KingSwaa]

Found it.

[@phonefamoustv7930]

Do you take on multiple bookings at the same time? If so, how do you deal with noise etc

[@TheStudioBusiness]

We do not. Limited to just one client at a time for now!

[@Allyganker]

What audio interface do you use to record to the computer?

[@TheStudioBusiness]

We use a Zoom H6 to plug into the PC with this setup. Otherwise our Rodecaster or directly from the Atem. The microphone record me for this was plugged directly into the camera.

[@MRFAVOR908]

Hey where are the podcast rooms located? Thanks

[@TheStudioBusiness]

The studio is in Chicago. All sets are in the same studio.

[@kiddgroovy]

Can I have your panels if you don't need them anymore?

[@JihadPowell]

Any updates on your studio bro? I am trying to get into this business

[@TheStudioBusiness]

Coming soon! Just been busy and slacking on YT. Lots of updates.

[@JihadPowell]

@@TheStudioBusiness thanks i understand

[@koenignero]

Why are there no more Videos=?????? Are you ok?

[@TheStudioBusiness]

I know i know =( we are doing TOO well is the problem and I've been strapped for time. KZbin just had to take a back seat. Planning new videos coming soon!
