Film composer here, had to move my family across the country and I had a beautiful 22'x22' room with a ceiling that went from 9' to 20', huge 3 layered windows, massive fireplace. Took me over a year to finish. My room now is about 18'x 12, 9ft ceiling, nothing special but it's soundproofed and does the job. And it has a window. It was a heartbreaker but hey, the important thing is you can still work comfortably.

[@TheEaglesRage]

I loved seeing the spark in his eyes as he's describing his vision versus what the rest of us sees right now. Such a unique perspective of a true work in progress and I cant wait to see how the creative space turns out!

[@mixdownonline]

Glad you enjoyed this video :-) Thanks!

[@-Deena.]

My studio is currently on and in my bed! Long story, but I can now lay in bed and still produce.

[@mixdownonline]

There you go, a bedroom studio has lots of advantages 😁

[@-Deena.]

@@mixdownonline It's not a bedroom studio. It's a bed studio :)

[@jono_young_music]

Dedication 🎧👌

[@conjureconquercreate909]

Currently the same. sitting sideways on my bed now with my rack under a $25 desk from amazon, and my mac mini, uad interface and a 32in monitor set up, i got two mic stands barely in between the mattress and desk lmao, and theres no room for my HS8 monitors so I'm doing everything with Beyer dynamic headphones. I'm in between apartments and looking for a large massive studio apartment so i can sleep in the studio space, unless I find other musicians to live with, but this bed setup is the most productive I've ever been lol All my guitars and bigger rackmount interface and midid controllers are packed tight as hell under my 18in high platform bed and I have five $10 12in thick Bed Wall Wedge pillows in the corner to make it comfy and deadening reflections for vocal tracking 🤣

[@-Deena.]

@@conjureconquercreate909 That's exactly what I've found! I have never got so much done in any studio setup! I bought a HD projector to avoid having to sleep with a monitor in bed! It's great, an 11ft monitor on the wall right at the base of my bed, so I don't have to lie on my side. I reckon in bed studios are the future! 🧡

[@ohstudiousa]

Wow, nice temporary space. Is there a possibility that he might keep that storage container setup. Can't wait to see the next tour of the finished Studio. And Chris's drums tracks.....

[@mixdownonline]

Yes, he's planning on keeping this space as an addition to the big studio

[@ShinyShinyBlack]

Oh, you know, just doing some chill, low-key demos... with PMC 8-2's, a Dangerous Liason, Bax EQ, Tube Tech and Purple compressors, a Manley Vari-MU, and a Rupert Neve Portico here in my humble little shack...

[@theonecalledvino8165]

Cracks me up every time. Unlimited Resources.

[@VirginiaBluesOG]

Best vocal chain options for a singer that sings and screams best loudest interface in and out

[@dumafuji]

Just with a click track. Whatevs.

[@conjureconquercreate909]

I mean, if yu worked your ass off and sacrificed and got super frugal you could get all of that in as little as one to two years. Especially with payments through zzounds and american music supply. Just gotta want it bad enough and not make life decisions based on anything other than music. Also, make money mixing/recording with the gear you do have, and put it all immediately into upgrading the gear along with selling off the older cheaper gear. Don't knock people for having nice shit when you have no idea what the did to achieve getting it.

[@guidomartin1017]

Hey Chris, thanks for your great stuff and your amazing channel! Have a wonderful weekend 👍

[@mixdownonline]

Thanks a lot! Good weekend to you too

[@producerbenford]

MAN!!! I’ve been tossing this idea around for a while. Who did the design? Are you selling it in 6-months? I want to build something similar. Please let me know who did the design. 🙏🏾

[@korkenknopfus]

What a nice place will this be! Hey Chris, his container is still bigger than my place, I must say. Unless I take into account the other room that is connected to my studio.

[@wonkyrobot]

Steve seems like a chill guy.

[@mixdownonline]

He is, for sure!

[@wdb2g]

Nice work!

[@Hogman666]

Lovely stuff! A great addition to your most excellent channel! Anywhere for people to stay over?

[@mixdownonline]

That's the plan! They're working to setup a guest house for the new studio 😎

[@billnylon]

An amazing concept, I could put one of these in my yard! Seems like the acoustics might be tricky though!

[@mixdownonline]

When there's a will, there's a way 😎

[@mixdownonline]

Thanks for watching

[@markkilley2683]

Is this the sign of the times? Sadly I've reduced mine to a tiny room.

[@Mobile.recording]

Thats great! I put mine on wheels

[@colinthomson7518]

looks nice in there and a great video as always.

[@mixdownonline]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@jeremyjohnson7676]

Where is fresh air coming in.....

[@jcisco1393]

I saw he had a mini split AC. Will not give fresh air but it will filter and cool or heat

[@mixdownonline]

That's pretty much it!

[@CaseJams]

Somehow I knew this would end in a barn ... of some kind

[@amendippanesar]

This studio build is going to be epic

[@mixdownonline]

Looks like it 👍

[@user-ux9ek3db3r]

Going to be an amazing studio!

[@mixdownonline]

I think so too!

[@XPJV]

"They sounds great", but how's the final mixes sound?

[@AntonovichHicksenbrau]

6 months ~? Looking forward to the Big Studio

[@mixdownonline]

Me too!

[@The_Absurdistt]

The new studio must be costing a fortune!

[@mixdownonline]

I'm not even asking Lol!

[@blasturd]

Looks like gonna take a while.

[@ErixSamson]

What about the temperature? It must be super hot in there...

[@mixdownonline]

There's an AC unit :-)

[@Studio22mix]

Is he rebuilding his studio for a bigger better one ? Looks like a great project 😅

[@mixdownonline]

😅 It's a great project for sure

[@ArgumentShow]

My plan

[@boblazo1]

Where is this thing? Nebraska?

[@mixdownonline]

Just outside Calgary, Alberta

[@boblazo1]

@@mixdownonline Thanks for that…Might look awesome in a snowy winter landscape photo…

It's unbelievable to me that you only have 110k subscribers.

KZbin is a marathon from what I see! Thanks for your support, my friend 🙏

[@SamHarrisonMusic]

Great video PLEASE don't put the pop in the speakers at the beginning of the video. It annoys the hell out of me on the Reverb adverts, and all the other advertisers that think it increases retention. I'm not subscribing because of this, but I like your videos.

[@mixdownonline]

The pop in the speakers??? What do you mean?

[@SamHarrisonMusic]

@@mixdownonlineMy bad, it must have been an audio fault. Certain KZbinrs and adverts put a loud pop at the beginning of their advert/video to try and focus the audience’s attention on what they’re trying to sell. I’m seeing it everywhere, and nothing grinds my gears like it. Across multiple devices and only certain channels and companies. Reverb are the one that springs to mind the most as I get their targeted adds all the time. I’ve promised myself I’ll never buy from any company that uses this technique, knackering peoples speakers for advertising uptake. Do you hear this often on adds?

[@mixdownonline]

Never heard of this... that is a very bad technique to begin with. A loud click at the beginning will not keep people watching, good valued content will.
