Mike Exeter STUDIO Tour - Where The Giants Record

[@Anders01]

Jenny Lind, because I heard that there are no recordings of her voice! And I'm curious about what she actually sounded like.

[@Producelikeapro]

@@Anders01 yes, as she died in 1887 I doubt there would be any recordings, plus of course even those that could exist would be of terrible quality as only Scott de Martinville's phonautograph or Edison's later copy would be in existence at the time.

[@alwaysfrothy5601]

It's hard to think of a singular artist or band, but if absolutely no factors limited selection, I would probably pick Sokoninaru or SiM. I got a long way to go to be ready for that, but it definitely would be a life highlight moment.

Awesome studio and what a cool guy !!

[@Producelikeapro]

Absolutely!

[@DrKevGuitar]

Re: tuners, the great Jack Endino (Mudhoney, Nirvana, Soundgarden) wrote 20+ years ago about using the same tuner for all guitars and basses, and even better, the same person doing the tuning. It feels like it slows things down but the time saved in trying re-do well played but badly tuned tracks is substantial, I promise! Endino's article "Tuning Nightmares Explained" is on his website and I think is a must read for all musicians, engineers, and producers.

Great interview and obviously a great course 🤘🥳

[@Producelikeapro]

Fantastic!!

[@mitkothemacedonian]

Very nice, very organic interview, you clicked with Mike so naturally.

[@marshallfairbrother7602]

Heard nothing but great things about Mike Exeter from 2 friends, would be lovely to work with him 1 day.

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks ever so much Mitko! Mike Rules!

[@Producelikeapro]

Agreed Marshall! Mike is THE best!

[@KreativeDevices]

🔥 Another good one

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks ever so much

Could you use Dante to connect your LIVE Room Audio to your console? If so you should be able to reduce or almost eliminate the perceived latency with the video sync. Or Add a delay in your video via an Extron video device and sync it with your audio.

[@mikeexeter]

Hi Robert. It’s the video that is delayed (older multiplexing camera system). Fear not, it’s on a list of things to fix ✌️😊

[@joesalyers]

Pro Tools uses AVB networks but yes they could use AVB the same way you would setup a dante system.

[@tekis0]

Hello: Who made the wooden "case" for your S1's and Dock, please? PS: I've suggested and enforced "phone bans," as well. If the band agrees to it, productivity and overall focus increases dramatically!

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks for sharing! Yes, no phones if enforced can really aid creativity!

[@mikeexeter]

Hi. I made the ‘desk’ myself. I love creating custom things for my use. It’s basically an MDF base which has the 3 controllers, PSUs, and a wifi access point all attached. I created a front arm rest from some wooden moulding and upholstered them with fake leather. Then I made templates for the end cheeks from Oak and finished the whole thing to make a nice ‘portable’ mix controller.

[@Producelikeapro]

@@mikeexeter Wow! Should have guessed! Haha Thanks for sharing!

[@jimp.7286]

Yes! Get rid of the bad fizzy/harsh nastiness on metal guitars. It's not whistling. Sounds like a can of bees. ☹If it's really bad and too much gets removed, waves vitamin can sometimes put something back that wasn't there where it's gone missing (harmonics???),. Some producers actually leave some of the fizz behind. Maybe they can't hear it anymore, lol. Not sure why as it just bonds to cymbals in an unpleasant way for me. Good timing here as I've been listening to older priest mixes trying to understand what's going on. Thanks. Wish I could visit there one day. Cheers. 👍

[@ThreadBomb]

It's what real guitars sound like.

[@jimp.7286]

@@ThreadBomb Nope. No one puts their head up against the cabinet of a cranked Marshall the way a microphone has to in a recording. At least,...I hope not!

[@Producelikeapro]

Yes, I've met a few modern metal guys who crank 10-12k and above on guitars! Fizz City!

[@jimp.7286]

@@Producelikeapro 10-12k crank on metal guitars!!! WOW. Why? Never-mind. Cheers.

[@jeremythornton433]

Great video and nice studio. I'm not a Pro Tools user, I'm an old Cubase guy. My mixer is a Presonus StudioLive 32SC. It's just a little one but it's my input interface. I'm struggling. I want to integrate it as a proper mixer. If i can just use the faders I'll be happy! If anybody knows exactly how to do it and can walk me through the process, that'd be amazing!

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks for the great question Jeremy!

[@Producelikeapro]

@@Rebel_Nature thanks for sharing!

[@CheapoCardCompany]

I often hear engineers complaining about a nasty hissing whistling sound coming down the mic... though, usually, it turns out to be my singing.

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha I resemble that remark!

He was a Union paid actor, they made us use one!

[@Producelikeapro]

Yep, double scale as well!

[@justinreynolds3935]

Drummer play to the camera delay!!😂

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha Well I suppose that will slow them down!

[@Producelikeapro]

Lay the groove WAY back!

@@Producelikeapro right!? I've been asked as drummer to do many things that I thought were bizarre. Not that one. Yet. lol.

414 talck back mic😅

[@marshallfairbrother7602]

it works though

[@KohleAudioKult]

We used 414s as his talkback mics for the entire course. Sounded great!

[@marshallfairbrother7602]

Loved working with the 414s when I got a chance to use the 2 of them

[@Producelikeapro]

God bless the 414!

[@Producelikeapro]

Yes, the AKG 414 is incredible for talkback!

[@henrikhenriksson9004]

So cluttered get a raven you can surely get rid of so much stuff…and the computer behind the back?!

[@mikeexeter]

Not really. it isn’t cluttered at all. I have used ravens and they don’t work anything like real console - mixing on a piece of glass is very disconnected for me Why would I want a screen in front of me when I am listening to the music and determining how I want to shape it based on what I’m hearing. The problem with screens everywhere is the visual ‘confirmation bias’. You may find this doesn’t work for you, but then you can do what you want …. just like I decided to!!!

[@henrikhenriksson9004]

@@mikeexeter Been there done that! so much nicer when everything is within reach without leaving the sweet spot! Old habits die hard..... But whatever ticks your boxes....
