I remember the first studio that I engineered and produced at in the 70s. We used a 4 track 1/2" Ampex tape machine and a Heilsound board. We mixed to an old 1/4" Ampex 351. I used a lot of reel-to-reel decks during the 26 years I was in radio.

[@NickyV]

That’s killer. I’m 31 so missed all of that and came straight into the digital world.

I had to laugh when the engineer said that it's difficult to mix off the 24 track tape. Back in the 70's that's the only way we could do it. Mixing back then was an incredible artform in and of itself. 😊

[@NickyV]

Spot on. Props to him for being in his 20s and knowing how to work with tape. The modern DAW definitely has made things easier haha.

[@rwascher]

​@@NickyV I took note of that immediately! Working with tape is definitely a different animal than working with a DAW. Props to this young man for having the skills to work with tape!

Mixing still today is an artform, either when its mixed from tape or not. Just have to rewind all the time is all

[@ImallinforJesusChrist]

Yeah and it sounds so much better on tape!! Especially drums!!!

I saw that the engineer said he would mix using pro tools and I totally get that, but doesn’t mixing in a digital system negate the purpose of tracking to tape?

[@marmaladecreammedia]

I've only done a few sessions on tape, but one of the best things about it was how it makes you slow down between takes. You actually have to wait for the tape to rewind! Also, if you want to punch in it becomes an event -- definitely makes you think twice about whether you REALLY need to fix something or if it's actually good as-is.

[@NickyV]

This is the best point haha. Makes you lean on the producer listening in the control room more...if its good enough for them and they are happy...it's done. Also increases the level of overall focus.

[@johnmckenzie4639]

The 24 track tape machine is old school. But the black rotary phone on the mixing desk is REALLY old school! 😊 Not to mention the KISS 8-track tape!

[@NickyV]

Hahaha pretty rock and roll

[@mesillahills]

Jimmy Capps who did thousands of studio sessions on guitar said in a KZbin video that track recordings as opposed to non-tracked make better recordings. He said it is better to make the singer sing to the music track than the band play to the singer. He said you get a lot more out of the band that way. He would of course feel that way. I once actually worked the original old mixer in RCA Studio B. That is another story.

[@NickyV]

All about serving the vocal is my take on it…sometimes that might mean inspiring the vocalist which might have been what he was getting at. Jimmy is a legend for sure. Thanks for watching!

I used to have to roll the 2" tape machines around Sound Stage on Music Row, up the elevator, back down, front stage to back stage. I was a skinny little rail hauling gear 12-16 hours a day, 6 days a week.

Wow! Those machines look heavy

[@AKDanMusicMan]

@@NickyV a few hundred pounds each probably. We had probably 4 2" tape machines and 1 Sony 1" digital tape machine to roll between the 4 rooms in that studio. Upstairs was where Martina McBride and her husband John had a studio. Next door was Ronnie Milsap. It was a fun place to work.

I worked at a studio for a while that had that same tape machine sitting in the corner. Unfortunately, by the time I got there, I never got to see it in action. It could still be patched in, but the engineer that knew it well was about to retire. Everything then was ADAT, then eventually ProTools, with the MCI 2” just being a conversation piece.

In the days of analog tape, organization was incredibly important… the reason for track sheets. It’s funny that ‘Welcome to 1979’ has cue mixers that are CAT 5 based. More like ‘almost welcome to 1979’. In 1979 the engineer dialed in a cue mix for everyone. 😂😮😢

[@dynamicalan]

Hi Nicky, Nice pedals on your iSpot pedal board I'm not sure what the XTS Interface is though or what some of the other ones - But I did notice the Timeline which usually goes with the Mobius and I would think the Halo should fit right in instead - I don't understand the number chart from what I can see - It makes sense if the number on the bottom is really below the top number for example I see something that looks like a 45 now is that a IV / V? I can see later in the video that you did discuss the number chart. Thank You! I Was curious thought when you dumping form tape to protools I didn't understand that you had the track separation unless there were only 4 tracks. Thank You, Alan

[@NickyV]

Thanks man! The XTS is just a box for the quarter-inch input and output. My favorite delay pedal I've ever used is the Tremolo delay in the Timeline...I put that on more records than any other delay. Alos love the clock work from J Rockett. Haven't messed with a Halo yet.

[@dynamicalan]

@@NickyV Hi Nicky, I like the Halo because I can get a dry delay and an infinite sustain if you're fast enough but the uppers like that on the upper e strings seem to die out faster than the mids but that 's guitars. I did a track with the infinite delay just as a test if you would like to hear it. It's called Through the Exit of Loneness: On the guitar solo I used the particle verb on the M-9 and the sound sounds like it might be a lot more Dwell with stable than it should. Thank you for your reply to my previous comment - I am sorry I didn't notice that before editing my comment - Great video! I will study it some more. Thank You, Alan

[@thesongwritersjourney]

Great video. The click in the room during your electric part - is that normal? I guess the phone was picking it up on a room speaker while the mix was in your headset?

[@NickyV]

There was another box next to me with its headphones blaring the click I believe.

[@erikhall9776]

I also laughed out loud at the comment, "It's kind of difficult to mix off analog tape" ---that's all we were doing in the 90's... yes, 1990's. With flying faders and automation on an SSL... it was all you knew to do. It's actually easy peasy.

[@globalonemusic2381]

Nick: Informative film, as always. However, I would like to ask a serious yet, "comical" question. :) In college 40 years ago, members of the Chicago Symphony I knew were retiring claiming that, "It does not matter if it's Bach or Rachmaninoff. When you get older....it becomes just a lot of 'loud noise'". The point was that as people get older, "age" simply requires a more "quiet and sedate" environment. :) Now, that you are getting older, do you also experience this same feeling around loud drums, cranked up amplifiers, etc. ? Are there many people who are successful and work regularly overdubbing from home and sending wave files back to a producer or engineer, having done them from home from a score, etc. ? Thank you for your input. :) Antoine

[@NickyV]

Hey Antoine, Regarding monitoring volume I listen incredibly quietly. I grew up with a mother that worked in a factory and was very volume conscious…so never liked anything loud, hate tracking with drums beside me if I don’t have cans on that block at least 90% of it. So I like to feel it all and hear just enough to be inspired and play accurately. This is not shared by most musicians I know, when i Iook at my friends cue mixes…they are cranked.

[@globalonemusic2381]

@@NickyV Thank you for getting back on this matter. I always wondered how people were able to "tolerate" it. The men and women I knew as a child who were string players were called "suit studio musicians". Violinists who went to sessions with sport jackets, ties, the women wore dresses and skirts, they required NO rehearsal, did the commercial jingles playing quietly with precision and went home. :) They was my "example". It is good to know you are not losing your hearing like arena and other "live show" guys. :) Keep up the good work. :)

Does it make any sense recording to tape when you just end up with a digital master? Probably end up with the same sample rate you would've gotten if you recorded straight to digital?

[@NickyV]

I think there’s something sonically that happens capturing on tape initially. Definitely subtle but this line of work kind of lives within that final 1-3%

[@ZappaIrl]

@@NickyV It would be an interesting experiment to have the DAW and the tape recording at the same time and do a blind test. I really like your videos. Keep up the good work. Thanks.

The tape will overdrive and compress naturally, so it's great for effect.

[@NotoriousFunk]

What I personally do not get is why record on tape and then use a click but probably that's just me.

[@NickyV]

I love tracking without a click when the stars align. They were kind of doing a hybrid thing on this project putting it all in protools at the end. Vintage sound with modern editing and I guess the modern editing side of things helps when it’s on the grid.

[@NotoriousFunk]

@@NickyV Not judging you of course, only it's weird to me to record on tape and then use a click, if you want old school, unleash the band and accept little minor mistakes for the sake of magic that happen when a band play live (which I love by the way!)

[@zachleary108]

Very cool. I know the greatest albums of all time were tracked this way but my question in todays world is why? Can anyone really tell the difference? I know its fun and feels like the organic part of the analog tape creates a certain vibe that digital can't replicate but is that really true? 20 years ago I'd say yes. But today, I'd challenge any world class engineer to do a blind side by side comparison and see if they could tell the difference. Not trying to be a cynic at all, I'm just curious as to why anyone would go through all the trouble.

[@NickyV]

The points you raised as definitely valid. I think there is a small sonic gain with tape but the advantages of digital in the modern DAW far outweigh that sonic analog tape saturation. Which is why they tracked to tape and edit in protools…kind of the best of both worlds. Regarding the blind test, I think an experienced engineer that lives in that world 24/7 could pick out the tape. The reason I say that is there are a handful of guys in town that can listen to a record, tell you what mics were on the overheads and also tell you which studio they were cut in…and be correct haha. Average listener telling the difference…probably not but this industry lives within the final 1% of striving for excellence.

[@dale116dot7]

@@zachleary108 I work only on tape. It is harder to edit, so the performers need to be better rehearsed for a session. The main reason I stick to tape is because I have a two inch machine and a big console, it works, and I don’t want to spend the money on a decent digital rig. I find that I don’t have to work as hard on recording or mixing from tape, when I have worked on a hybrid rig (digital recording, analogue mixing) it took a lot more effort to get the sound I was after.

So basically, this is all fake sh!t. Might as well use the clasp system for recording. Aero Smith did. Same BS as this. The magic of sound from the analog days is the analog summing from the tape to a mixer console to a 2 track master tape. This is very disappointing and fake advertising. Mixing sampled signals from an analog console isn't going to cut it.

There is no false advertising. We recorded it to tape just like the title said. They just wanted the control on the back end to mix in protools.
