Dude! Congrats everything looks great and super efficient! Also, isn't Mitch the best! Hope to see you soon!

[@harryplaysdrums]

It’s been 84 years….. This has made my day! And the studio is dope of course. ❤

[@BrandonScottDrums]

Holy Shit... A BLOG.... YES JP!!!!

[@JPBouvet]

lol on and on!

[@voitekbiskup6005]

I couldn’t agree more about reducing resistance. That’s the most important part of this excellent video! In my case that extends to using ultra light hardware and even drums, as well as getting rid of anything I don’t use etc etc.

[@matias.salomon]

JP! Thanks once again for your openness. It's super cool to learn about your setup and be able to appreciate it when we stream your lessons.

[@drewanderson7175]

Awesome! Really nice set-up and thanks for the clear explanation/tour! Nice space!!

[@JonPlettdrums]

I'm a huge sucker for whiteboards and dry-erase calendars. Those are the ultimate productivity tools!

[@toddedrums]

The place looks awesome, I’d love to have a space like that! Respect for putting all together and I like the thought process.

[@urologistajay]

Congratulations JP. I can imagine the thrill and the happiness it gives. Yes, it is as great as the teaching contents. I may be a good idea to have Carter as guest to give advices on studio stuff

[@alombardodrums]

Studio is lit JP!

[@marshal-a-mciff]

Hell yeah, glad to see a video like this from. Old jp vlogs revamped. I've been wondering what the new wall was about but didn't want to pry. Looks beautiful

[@RumpukouluBasari]

YEEEEES! 😄 Thank you! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I can relate to the resistant so much. I have a hybrid space so I would have to adjust the stuff on the sealing too so that I would not have to set it all up again all the time.

[@RumpukouluBasari]

And btw, thank you for showing the ducker hack. I've always wondered if you manually cut away the noise but than makes so much sense!

[@Bio_logique]

Génial ! Merci pour le partage, tu viens quand en France ?? Mon studio est très proche du tien, réduire à mort la friction, et faire mes vidéos de biologie de mon côté... et ma batterie en face qui résonne des fois :) BREF, merci !!! à bientôt !

[@asrieljaksa1996]

Been wanting this for years! Thanks JP. Loved this tour and the new studio.

[@WillDrumsDaly]

The ‘Atomic Habits’ approach to building a studio. Incredible work. Can relate to the drummer vs resistance thing big time. Loved this. Thanks for the tour!

[@danzangmeister4041]

So glad to see another vlog! I missed these. Started watching from the very beginning years ago. Keep crushing it! Thanks for all the inspo over the years.

[@TheGhostNotePodcast]

Wow man this studio looks amaaaazing. I’m currently trying to figure out how to set up my shed studio and this gave me tons of ideas. Loving your channel so far man!

[@andyTHPS]

great video, wish more drummers would do more of these!

[@anmelehin]

JP, thank you!!!

[@Sundaydrumday]

Whats up JP!? Dig your studio, great video and good to hear from ya, for me its been a while!

[@jackariya8]

This was a great blog!

[@SimonRileyDrums]

Mannn, such a thorough and dope studio tour! Also, love the 3 point lighting setup you have goin👊🏻 If you’re ever in Oxnard for DW, hit me up bro! I have a huge studio space here that I teach out of and would love to hang🥁

[@JulianFernandez]

tom looks like a 12x8". neat place!

[@DTD805]

Hope to see you crank out more content, Carter Mclean is definitely a good inspiration to dial in a studio he gets incredible tones out of his space with minimal mic's

[@SoggyBagelz]

HAHAHA no way a new blog LFG

[@matthiasspitz]

Very interesting video, thanks! One question: I actually would be interested to know about the ride cymbal models, or let's say at least your favourite ones 😁. And one comment: You definitely have to make a video series about how to organize your stuff, as it's clearly one of the things that make me fail in my daily life 🙈.

[@gballmaier]

I didn't see your old studio monitors? You must have gone with just using your headphones while playing and recording? Probably better for keeping your ears healthy and happy 😊. Great job. YES, IM VERY JEALOUS 😅😅😅. I'M PROUD OF YOU YOUNG MAN, KEEP UP THE HARD WORK!!!

[@ionro90]

Awesome studio renovation! Did you make any soundproofing to the ceiling?

[@jordansaltmarsh3808]

Man, looks so good! Totally a random question…finding a place to practice has been difficult where I live. Are you at a storage facility? Any tips in getting a room where drums are allowed?

[@DennisBergDrums]

Love it! The stuff from audimute…does it glue to the wall so that it’s basically not reusable if you once move out? That was always my concern when I see their products. I like to have acoustic panels that I can hang like a picture frame and reuse in different rooms as long as I’m alive basically ;-) 2nd question: You said during live streams you don’t run your mics through logic? But where do they go through instead?

[@JPBouvet]

Valid concern, but no not at all. No glue. They have these little hang tabs that you screw into the back of the panel, and then you literally staple gun that to the wall. Super easy to remove. No damage to wall or panel. If you move, you can take them all with you. Installation is insanely easy. Didn't even need help from a second person.

[@fabioportillosanchez9956]

hey jp im a really big fan and im really inspired by your playing, ive been taking drum classes with a teacher, but were going pretty slow and i dont feel like im getting better, do you think i can replace my classes with your course? (im beginner-intermediate)

[@JPBouvet]

Hey Fabio. Why don’t I get you going on a free month and you can see if it feels like a good alternative? Send me an email at jp (at) JPBouvetMethod.com

[@amazish]

great studio ! [your 12" tom is almost surely 8" deep ; )]

[@JPBouvet]

You're probably right

[@amazish]

@@JPBouvet love your playing and the way you teach. Rock on

[@samuelbarsi817]

Eccentricities don't age well... Interesting
