Opening A Recording Studio: I WISH SOMEONE HAD TOLD ME THESE THINGS

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

Check out my one mic series. Start with the R88! kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4Wvfmakh51qeqM

[@fiddlefolk]

I second that! Get a few great pieces such as an AEA R88 and a millennia preamp. Capture a great performance! Done! Don’t get caught up with the grid. The grid doesn’t make great music. Great musicians and talent do.

[@TheSmokedKarma]

nice, great stuff

[@TheAtticradio]

Of course you can .keep going never stop … it’s a life thing . Keep going 😎🎸

[@ORACLEBALL]

I recommend getting a fireproof/waterproof safe and putting your backup drives in there. I have backups in the studio, and at home in the safe.

[@Noahdonoho]

I’m 6 months in on my studio. I’ve gone the nonprofit route; I work with a lot of nonprofit organizations and provide free music lessons. Hopefully soon offering music therapy. And a lot of the difficulty on my project is self inflicted, but yes. This is so hard. Roller coster is a gross understatement. Thank you for this honesty. Sometimes I feel like I’m drowning and working way too much for the small fruit of my labor. Just knowing I’m not alone and this is at least somewhat normal helps. If anyone would like to start a dialogue about the process of studio ownership or actually making it in the music industry, message me. I’ve turned a bunch of free junk, essentially trash, into a profitable business model that gives back to artists and the local community all on a budget of nothing. There’s no experience in the world I would trade for what I’ve done here. Big things to come, so long as you just KEEP GOING.

Being an amateur musician, i can only imagine how hard it is for you guys to live with your passion as a job. Depending on the public's idea of good music and good sound. I only own a tiny fraction of your gear - and experience! - but i feels so happy, that i can afford to write whatever suits me. Best of luck to you, and don't let bad taste take over!

[@craigvittorio1865]

At 32, I'm about 3 years into learning mixing and mastering journey and have been contemplating taking the next step into working on my own. I've been on the "path" that I had set out for myself since college but it's never landed me in a job or role that I've ever truly enjoyed or was able to dedicate myself to entirely - not the way I am with music. I've been a musician my whole life but always had a 9-5 as a backup plan and I wonder sometimes if that was to a detriment. Anyway, thanks for this video, I needed to see it and it gives me hope that I can actually do this on my own.

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

You can totally do it. Keep going.

[@Whyshould1car3]

This is a great video! I myself have just opened my own studio and having no one to answer to has left me 2 months in with no income coming from the studio. I’ve spent so much time trying to be the perfect engineer and practicing my speed as a producer that I’ve overthought the entire process. The stress of being the head of company has sometimes taken it’s toll on my mental health. Having to handle the rent, the electricity bill, still having a full time job etc. I’ve found that when you’ve achieved a part of the process that is line with your final goal, Planning is incredibly important. Be ready for the stresses that come with being the head hunco. However, stay confident in your goals and understand that everything you’re going through is a part of the process. Overthinking is a MF and don’t allow overthinking to stagnate the growth of your business.

[@JustinGamana]

How is it going right now?

[@Whyshould1car3]

@@JustinGamana I’ve been able to actually understand what I want to achieve as an engineer and producer. This has allowed me to focus on finding an artist I can help to develop their sound and take them to the next level. I’ve also developed a lot as an engineer because being an a control environment consistently has given me an opportunity to build patterns of consistency.

[@billyrayvalentine7972]

I ran my own 2 inch 16 track recording studio from 1979 to 1989. It was the time of my life. I recorded every style of music. Back in those days the killer was maintenance costs on the tape machine and console. Over time it was a killer cost that crushed profits. But it really was a great experience because I was involved in everything from publishing and artist development to setting up a tape machine and session to being first or second engineer or just the tape operator depending on the session. After decades in the business world I'm hoping to build one more studio. Which would be my fourth build. And yes it will be a hybrid studio because I need to feel the console to be part of the creative process. New subscriber.

[@Jewell.Studios]

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

Best of luck my friend!

[@JustinGamana]

How is it going at the moment?

[@bradsmith5136]

I’m not a musician, I’m a full time glass artist, but I can tell you all of this applies to my business 100%, and likely to any creative professional in general, especially what you said about the freedom of schedule. One thing I might add is how much time I spend marketing/advertising, or otherwise drumming up business to keep my schedule full. I’m sure the same is true for running a recording studio. People will not immediately flock to you when you are starting out, you have to find a way to draw in the business to slowly build your reputation. Networking and building solid business relationships are key. Great video! Thank you!

[@stevenstabile4379]

I've worked in major studios in NY as an engineer and found that owning a studio is a liability until you start your own publishing company and have your own artists to develope who write songs that you can get part publishing for recording them for FREE and develop them or have music producers who work with you until you get interest in the artists you have!!! It takes time, patience and hard work!!! As an engineer in the days of tape, I had to engineer, program drums and keyboards, play guitar (my main instrument) and bass and sometimes sing backup and you never get paid for all that!! But the main thing is songs and publishing and being able to get deals!! But hang in there and good luck!!!

[@IanTuazon_]

Couldn't agree more! I just started my own recording studio business a couple of months ago and the things you spoke about are the things I'm going through right now. lol But I feel a little better now after watching this vdeo, Thanks my man! Keep them coming!

You really helped me mentally today. I appreciate this.

[@creativesoundlab]

Some wise words my friend. I think I’ve told you this before, but it’s always a battle of getting direction, motivation, movement, and drive. This year I started getting up at 5:15 and really pushing hard at the beginning. I found that I would never come in to the studio before 11 or noon and often not more for 4 or 5 hours. I had to really coach myself about what the priorities were and how to add structure to my life in order to start succeeding. For the affirmation stuff - it took me years to know if videos I made reached very far. I knew of my regular peps in the comments, but it’s hard to judge just who knows about your work and who is quietly watching and admiring.

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

It has been a game changer to lock in a set schedule at the studio. Mine was kind of necessity with the kids schedules but It made me really focus down and get stuff done because I COULD NOT procrastinate!

[@MixChecks]

I've found getting up early really does help. Especially when you get up before the sun comes up and you feel like you've accomplished a ton before the day has even started ;)

[@CreativeMindsAudio]

Great tips! I'm surprised you didn't mention cloud backups! i do a timemachine backup regularly, plus drop box (which is more or less your keychain drive). You definitely seem way more successful than most people i know. You have a space that isn't in your home?! that's incredible! especially at 34! I am 36 and have always worked out of my bedroom/home. And It hasn't provided a full-time income... yet. definitely had a few great months that pay all my bills, but it's a tough industry that is shifting more to composing and producing beats/pop songs near me than actual recording and mixing instruments. I do great drum recordings/guitar and decent mixing. hard to find people in my area (los angeles) that need those things these days... covid doesn't help. shifting my business a bit towards a mobile live streaming recording studio.

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

Hey man, I started in my bedroom upgraded to a portion of my basement. Moved to different rooms… And somehow eventually ended up at a building. If you’re going to still be successful in a bedroom… I would argue that that is the dream job. And success is different for everyone. It is important whether were in a bedroom or in a building to be able to change fast because like you said the industry does change. I didn’t mention cloud back up because where I am up till recently Internet was not nearly fast enough to warrant cloud-based back ups. That has changed in the last few months. I wanted to look into different cloud-based back up options. But I would be looking into at least a terabyte and I have no idea what that would cost.

[@CreativeMindsAudio]

@@RecordingStudioLoser I have dropbox that has 2TB of storage for 9.99/month. "And success is different for everyone. It is important whether were in a bedroom or in a building to be able to change fast because like you said the industry does change." - 100%. for me I just wanna survive off of the things I love without having to work every waking hour like many of my friends who do youtube and/or music do. Adaptability is the key. I have helped a few people get up and running with live streams.

Tech tip in response to your lightning comment. Get a UPS on your computer. The UPS will let you save work if the power goes out and it will also be a surge suppressor for the inevitable lightning strike..

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

Make sure it is double converting UPS. A double converting UPS is not cheap but it will supply the cleanest power possible.

make a cloud copy too - Backblaze or similar. It's mindless and automatic based on all connected drives... incase you lose your keys and your office blows up.

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

Hey man! Yes. But internet speeds just aren't there where I'm at. Thats the only reason I leave that out. The upload process would take months for one project. Unless theres some aspect to it that I'm missing. I would love to figure it out

[@NeilParfittMusic]

@@RecordingStudioLoser hrmm yeah, I feel you. I remember my first studio office had 2Megabit upload. It was dreadful back .. and more $ than my home net! Do you have a general use laptop at home with better net speeds? You could mount your keychain drive and Backblaze from there (as the backup is the computer plus any attached drives). I never thought I'd need a cloud backup - but it's saved my ass more than once.. and it's encrypted and geographically not near either my studio or home (or country for that matter!). So it's an extra level of being apocalypse ready.

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

I’ll have to do some checking. I know there are some fast speeds coming available soon so that may be something I can add into the mix Thanks man!

I learned a couple days ago how important backups are. I was working on the finishing touches of a song with 40+ layers of recordings. There was a power blip. My computer shut off suddenly. I turn on my computer and open back up my DAW to see that this project that i had been working on for a week was blank. It got corrupted somehow and there was no way to recover it. Absolutely devastating And so I had to start from scratch. Im working on remaking it right now. I will now be religiously backing up EVERY day whenever I'm working on a project.

"Force yourself to listen to music that you may not like". That's a very important point, but it can be an enormous challenge as the 'engineer to client age gap' becomes wider. It's human nature to embrace/defend the music YOU love & perhaps throw shade at what a younger generation is listening to (or creating). That being a successful engineer requires having a 100% open mind to all musical styles can't be overstated. This gentleman appears to have that virtue.

I have had three very successful businesses now. The most important lesson I have learned is when you’re starting out to keep your regular job. I all my businesses while still working. This way you never have to worry if it’s going to work. When business gets to a point that your side thing is too busy to keep everything up is when you decide if it’s worth it. Start small, carry no debt and let the business pay for itself. When established don’t over pay yourself. Keep a good emergency operating capital. The pandemic put many of my competitors out of business and fairly quickly. I keep $50k+ in the bank at all times. Sounds like a lot but it’s maybe 6 months of overhead.
