Jealously level at an all time high, Paul! Your videos are always exceptionally well made, consistently the best lighting and best vocal sound quality of any guitarist on YT. I know I'm not the only one who'd be very, VERY interested in a studio/recording essentials video! Interfaces, software, etc., even the basics of guitar effects and how to tweak guitar tracks with the rudimentary compression, reverb and so on. Keep up the good work! You're the most popular for good reason :)

[@blackiejames1843]

First thing is congratulations on becoming a father, as there is no greater gift than a child. Secondly congratulations on your new home and studio. The fact that you started small and worked with what you had not only shows creativity but it makes reaching your goal even more gratifying. I'm not a KZbin personality but I have been a professional musician for over thirty years both touring and studio and I too always had the dream of a comfortable studio in my home. A few years ago it materialized and I share your feelings regarding having all of my recording, guitars and amps set up and ready at a moments notice to play and create music. Like yourself my guitars are all on display and at the ready. Not only are they works of art but to me they are pure inspiration. I may walk into the studio with nothing when suddenly a certain guitar catches my eye and I am compelled to pick it up and play, now that's when the unexpected happens. Things like that would never happen with guitars locked up in cases. Anyway I most certainly can relate to your own scenario. All the best in your future projects as I will be watching. Oh by the way, I have three children and I tell you it gets better everyday having them. All the best !

You need to learn how to say Røde :) But the studio looks amazing! Congrats on that!

[@blrmaurice]

So how do you say it?

[@mikkels.rischel1255]

Well, the letter "ø" is a genuine letter in the Danish and Norwegian alphabet (and Jens Larsen is definitely Danish/Norwegian; har jeg ret, Jens?). But the company is not Danish/Norwegian, so pronouncing the name without the Danish/Norwegian "ø"-sound is just as correct as with it. Yes, I am also Danish :)

[@bartlaan1996]

Didn't the name originate from the English word "rodent"? Their first mic was the Rode NT-1, or rodent 1
