My Computers and Editing System

[@capturelightmedia]

I love this guy because no matter what, he's just a kid at heart. We should all aspire to this.

[@coolbananaboy5075]

Absolutely! Markus is a very special human being. Makes me feel old and grouchy ... and I am his age. I aspire to be more like him.

[@JoesCamera]

Agree

[@ChristianThueringer]

yes!

[@ElementaryWatson-123]

Every time I watch Markus I think of Peter Pan.

[@AlienMythos79]

His passion is infectious.

[@AliRazaFarooqi]

I am not sure why this channel does not have a million subs. The wealth of "honest" knowledge you provide is priceless.

[@garthhunt7238]

Have decided to try my hand at script writing and filming short films. I very much appreciate this gentleman’s channel as a resource!

[@CairnsLobster]

Me too, I need to story board my KZbins, coming up to 6months now I cant keep making rambling videos that dont have a flow. Short Films like you are going to excel in are way harder. And feature films like 'To the ends of Time'! well thats crazy hard. Im just a vlogger but I need to get WAY better and also start making non vlog videos. I wont to do house fix ups for charitable reasons, all for free, but how do I film it on my own, should I try to get good at teaching everyone and anyone I can use at the time or engage a semi professional, what are the angles, Im too autistic to know all of this - yet! Andre

[@OttoVonRaz]

"I love pretty colors!" I love you dude!!!

[@lewchaney2138]

Watching your videos is a completely enjoyable experience...

[@alexcornofficial]

Please make a video about THE OLD MAC G4, and the OLD PROGRAMS!

[@stingylizard]

The voice of reason..."Give it away,Markus"...dig it,man! Love these two for sharing so much!

[@CairnsLobster]

I agree Stingy Lizard!

[@carlosbarbosa5821]

Hi tech. You are like the popular mechanics, pc magazine, and popular photography all in one. Impressive.

[@c0mbat_m0nkey5]

As someone who's been building their own computer since the early 90s, when you talked about your Titan computer specs I wanted to cry 👌🤓🤓

[@taniajansen3650]

A humble man with a big heart

[@HaraldEngels]

I am working on PCs since 40 years and I experienced the same: From time to time there get software released which "dies out" but leaves a gap because other products don't feel the same or don't cover exactly what this defunct software did. I always try to keep these programs alive (sometimes with ancient hardware like your G4 Mac) as long as possible. The disadvantage is, I have now a computer museum at home.

[@IslandFilmMaker]

Gee Markus... Anytime you go for a walk on any floor, I'm excited to see what's behind the next door. Feeling like a kid in a candy store, everything I've every wanted... and even more. Always interesting, Thx 4 sharing 📸🎬 🍻

[@dustingatlin6208]

I use Mac and PC also. I think they each have pros and cons so having both is great.

[@caverken]

The three d work was awesome. Carrara is an Italian marble used in statues. You and Michelangelo using Carrara checks out.

[@MarkusPix]

I never thought of that. Yeah, marble is used for carving, my god after 20 years I finally get the name connection!

[@nigelprice4799]

Love the way you cover our Gear Acquisition Syndrome for us!.......and love your positive vibes, you are both treasures!

[@robertball6899]

I like the idea of a "stand up" work station. Easy on the back and really humans are made to stand rather than sit . Thanks for sharing your cool stuff Markus. You really do inspire people.

[@_mariochristopher]

Looking forward to the audio series!

[@matttheking1655]

Luv the old editing system....you're right they always reliable....👌

[@Ulrich.Bierwisch]

I know NewTek from the famous NewTek Demo Reel 01 for the Amiga a millennium ago. They made a multi media demo with short video parts, pictures, sound, speech and Music "Paranoimia" by Art of Noise. It was distributed/shared/copied on floppy-disc and somewhere between mind blowing and live changing at that time.

[@usersangsa]

Love watching your videos and how your girlfriend is your camera person! It is also amazing how she supports you in your journey! Keep it up!

[@MarkusPix]

We take turns holding cameras 😊

[@usersangsa]

@@MarkusPix Have a great weekend!

[@TysyTube]

awesome 👏

[@kayjaylin]

I love your perspective in the camera review space as a representative of golden hollywood years.

[@FisherPost]

I like that you had a Video Toaster! I had those as well as the Newtek Toaster/Flyer non-linear editing system. Your setup is amazing! Keep cranking out these videos!

[@apislapis]

Thanks for sharing your computer set-ups, just fabulous. I look forward to that series on audio you talked about, that would be super cool.

[@georgehenry3384]

Very cool systems!!! Thanks for behind the curtain look!

[@joematiacio3449]

That old G4 is cool. I used to work for Dell when they started the Ent Server Group (sometime around 1997) and we had our datacenter hallway full of G4's, ding rev engineering/analysis of the mechanical/elect design.

[@wkuhlewind8928]

Thanks for sharing your set up.

[@johnpaulgleason7929]

What a beautiful fun looking home Markus, well used and packed full of nice stuff that actually gets used! Literally everywhere stuff to see and play with. Not just a showroom, love it.

[@AVION360]

My role model - Awesome and so humble guy. Cheers.

[@OneLifeTwoLive]

Cant help but learn , discover,get inspired , entertained by this wonderful man whom by now , Im sure everyone loves. Thank you Sir🙏

[@GiovanniPerini]

As a Linux user I'm on a completely different train as far as photo/video editing goes. Not that smooth of a train to be fair, but still… But as an old hardware resuscitator geek, I completely agree with your "good is whatever does a good job" philosophy! Can't wait for your audio editing serie!

[@antfirmin]

The Linux train is wild ride for sure!

[@edwrd4178]

Wow thanks for showing us around Markus! Your home is so awesome and It’s really cool to see how you work behind the scenes with all your 3D and design/graphic work. Really appreciate videos like these 👍🏻

[@DopamineOverload]

Awesome stuff, Markus! I love how you're using literally a super-budget $30 set of computer speakers on that editing beast-- the Logitech Z313's, or at least that's what it looks like!

[@MarkusPix]

They're awesome! I have two sets of thousand dollar pro monitors and I hate them. They are in my giveaway pile

[@MileyonDisney]

My computer is connected to my stereo, with a pair of 3' tall Sansui speakers and a pair of 3' tall Jensen speakers, both of which I bought about 40 years ago. But they all still sound awesome.

[@Indrid-Cold]

@@MarkusPix -An important TIP regarding your compact/desktop near-field speakers/monitors: Try a pair of IK MULTIMEDIA MTM’s! I once used the exact same speakers you’re using, so I can personally attest to the incredibly significant difference! They are compact, but Highly versatile, extremely flat and honest waveform response, and INCREDIBLE low-frequency capability for their size, all the way down to 40 Hz! So you can ditch the subs. For professionals, in a professional setting, they’ve easily taken over the purpose of the old YAMAHA NS-10’s in many studios. A lot of cutting-edge science incorporated into the design, and highly competitive, For any size, honestly. AND, each speaker comes with a high-Quality measurement microphone and powerful, but intuitive DSP Software, so that you can tailor them to any room, and any listening position/environment, in under a minute. The algorithm just does it for you, and takes into account the reflections, and any other undesirable frequency issues with your room, so that there is perfect continuity in their use as a dependable, “what you hear is what you get” tool, no matter what surface you sit them on. And they’re VERY affordable for what you get, at $500-$700 per pair. Moreover, when you order a pair, you get two of the measurement microphones and two licenses for the Digital Signal Processing software. They even beat out the mini, near-field GENELECS, not just in performance, but in being less than half the price. Anyhow, long story short, I can’t recommend them enough… And with all of the useful tips you’ve provided myself, and so many others regarding filmmaking/photography/motivation, I felt I should attempt to give back. For what it’s worth ❣️✌🏻

[@antfirmin]

@@Indrid-Cold why would he invest in IK Multimedia iLoud MTM's when he is perfectly happy with his $33 and probably more than meet his requirements?

[@MykEviiL]

@@MarkusPix haha you rock Markus!!! I wish Canada was included in your giveaway stuff. But you explained all that already. Love the videos. Cheers!!!

[@geofftaylor8913]

So glad to see an old toaster system user. Still have mine in a amiga 2000. Running light wave!!

[@DIZEMANPHOTO]

I had a Video Toaster system back in 1990. Back when NewTek was in Topeka, Kansas. I just used it for my Wedding Videos back then.

[@hobscotch]

Nice to see, that you are using the same Logitech Audio System like me. It's cheap but very good!

[@dceye2230]

Powerful machines ever

[@SteveWB]

Awesome setup and thanks for sharing!

[@BornAgainFarmGirl]

Thanks Markus , I enjoyed the peak into your computers 🙂 . Nice filming Cara ‼️

[@videovasco7]

I must say, I'm not into studio tour videos and all. But your tour you did some time ago, is just next level. My dream studio. And now, also enjoyed this one with the computers. Cool stuff. Until a few months ago, I only had a macbook from 2012 heheh

[@MarkusPix]

Took me a while to do this video, I always thought this kind of stuff was boring and no one would be interested

[@videovasco7]

@@MarkusPix Your studio is my absolute dream, I keep it as a reference and goal. The bunker and all, that it seems , it might become more and more handy by the day heheh

[@SuperSonic1K1]

Markus is really a humble genius! I think his tough childhood made him grounded and humble despite his immense talent!

[@MohsenDhafer]

I'm here to tell you, you seem like a really nice and pleasant person, I enjoy your videos not because I like equipments, in fact, I'm what you might call a minimalist kinda, but I watch these videos cause you bring such positive vibes man, hope the best for you, from the Middle East

[@MarkusPix]

Thank you!

[@anyuisbjoern]

Your passion and love for life from your deep heart is so beautiful to witness 😃

[@franktv992]

This is why I can’t love you any less. You are just simple and don’t like to complicate yourself… Once the product works you don’t care how old is it. 👋👊🏼

[@Caroline_T]

I agree. He’s a genius. That is no exaggeration.

[@MyGreenLawn2019]

I love the setup! Im going to look into Carrara Pro8.5. I worked with 3DMax in the past and also Lightwave. Thanks for the video Markus

[@kennygo8300]

You are the most interesting man on the internet. So many things, done so well.

[@agentbey]

I used to use the NewTek Toaster and Lightwave 3D when it was built on Amigas.

[@MarkusPix]

The Toaster was great! SpeedEdit was my favorite all time editing program. So elegant

[@27chaz]

Video Toaster. A lot of folks will say, what the heck are they talking about… I started out editing in house commercials on these. What a challenge that was, linear editing. Then I had my first computer built and certified by Dell and Adobe Premier. It was good when it worked but crashed a lot. I enjoy watching your videos, especially the reviews on all your gear and giveaways. Keep on bringing out these wonderful videos. You are much appreciated by all who subscribe.

[@anyuisbjoern]

Cars is a great camerawomen, and you both are a great team!!

[@l31007]

I love how you ended the video. Shows us how down to earth you are.

[@ShinyTechThings]

For your Ethernet connections you may want to consider going to a multigig switch and adapters. Even on older CAT5e you should be able to get 2.5Gbps up to 5Gigabit. For 10 gig over RJ45 you'll need at least CAT6 to have a stable connection. I have a few videos I've made on this so feel free to ask any questions and I'll respond.

[@jpost4182]

Thank you Markus and Care ! Luv ya !

[@weisserth]

I love that desk, that would have been worth talking about.

[@randyoliver3835]

Love your wall hangings, very nice set up Markus, I've been working with wood 40 + years your home's wood work is what I installed for those long years in the construction business. I'm retired now and Loving life, and in college and I am my 3rd semester 2 more to go then I graduate in October 20th I have so many ideas because of your videos! Bravo! Vaya con Dios my friends until later, I'm a going to keep watching...

Did you see the woodworking in this room kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXi7fZJ6aKtrj68

That tricaster is my dream 😌 and yet it’s sitting there some place . I hope Markus will gives it a life of creator

[@Talkaboutit1]

))) you put a smile on my face with every video I watch, the little guy always sells for a better price because he doesn't have as much cost for ads and room space

[@Jestunes]

As someone else commented it would be great to hear about the old programs you use and the G4.

[@johnbivins]

Oh my gosh man! I love that window wow just wow!

[@WHEELSRT7]

Great sailboat model❤❤❤

[@HumbertoAbed]

Nice setup! And all those lenses!! OMG!! I never wished to be like somebody else. And I still don't. But I wish more people would be as nice as you are. You inspire others. While many focus on your financials (yeah, look how much money he has) many focus on the kind of person you are. So, again, thank you for sharing. looking forward to that audio series.

[@ralfmoss]

Living the dream Mr. Markus... my dream LOL. Love your studio. Thanks 4 endless motivation.

[@tipoxtipox]

I really love this episode is like behind the scene stuff💓

[@julsrique9148]

I agree with some of those who have commented previously. Marcus' key is to remain a child until he grows old. If we have the attitude of a child who loves his toys, we can enjoy and take care of what we have.

[@DeiGmz]

man your videos are so cool theres a lot of stuff to learn its awesome

[@StephanieVDW]

Sooo cool! I love the way you explain things and make it simple! Thanks markus! Video about ur Audio is gonna be great!

When I first saw that bunch of hardware, my thoughts were pretty harsh ha ha then you got me with that Titancomputers creation. I wasn't expecting that at all! Thanks for sharing your setup like this, it's fun and inspiring! PS: People might get confused with you're talking about processor cores vs "physical" processor :-/ PS2: I LOVE your shirt by the way! Gorgeous style! :)

[@sclogse1]

Cooling is everything. I aim a small deco period (well it looks deco but probably 50's) Vornardo fan at the back of my old Imac (10.6.11) all the time. No funds for new gear anymore. But then, all my software is paid for, and my ITunes doesn't owe any favors either. I completed a short noir film only using CS 4 P.S. extended for hand made fades and effects and it's animation timeline and edited by opening sections in various QuickTime windows and pasting back and forth. With 8 megs ram. It was still good enough to draw the attention of the CEO of Village Road Show back then, when he restarted his First Rites channel in digital form. Hey, it's raining....

[@Joe-mg6pj]

Amazing!!! More power there than NASA... lol... ok maybe not but don't let my wife see this, or she will want one for her channel editing... WOW!!! Great video Markus and Cara. 20 cpu's, all I-9's crazy cool!
