This video is a work of art, and such an important lesson everyone needs to learn. Nobody cares about what gear made a song - they just care that the song is something they want to listen to. I'm guilty of owning 800 dollar microphones, but recorded my first two albums - my best work - with a 50 dollar mic... And it sounds great. Thanks for the video. The song is really good too!
@revevague6256 Жыл бұрын
I love fancy mics too, and would love to own one in the future (something with a tube that doesn't bankrupt me!). I've just noticed too many folks (myself included) going down the route of thinking a new microphone (or any piece of gear) is going to fix their music, when they don't have a strong song to record. Thanks for the kind words Todd, it means a lot!

A Boss BR800 is the easiest and funnest way to make tons of songs, I've used several Boss portistudios, I highly recommend them, they come with built in effects (guitar/bass/vox/other like record player/lol Fi, bullhorn or pbone) and drums that you can edit also which other portistudios don't have except one or two Tascams. You also have multiple "virtual tracks" under each track so it's way more than simply 8 tracks per song with bouncing. You can also get them smaller or larger than the BR800 and they all have pretty much the same stuff. It is really good to learn songwriting, throw down ideas (built in microphone, bass simulator and acoustic simulator) or make entire songs. It is HIGHLY underrated. It can get VERY fun.

Great song and great advice. I'm old and old school. I'm just starting out getting into home recording and have been needing to streamline my approach since I don't have an unlimited cash flow to put into a studio. So your advice is well taken about approaching a project rather than getting hung up on the amount of equipment we have. I love the song you created. I'm not critiquing it in anyway, but when I was listening to it, I felt a few places could have been accented with some simple background vocals. But no matter what, the piece feels complete and inspiring at the same time. It's got a haunting melody that makes a fellow musician want to sit in and jam along. Once again thanks for the perspective and information. Best wishes on your continued music.

Glad to hear you're getting into recording, its a really fun and fulfilling hobby. Just remember to make music! I think you're right about a backing vocal; in this instance nothing came to me.

So glad I got back to your channel! I love this video so much, really shows what one can do with just limited means. For me personally, I always find that I write most of my songs just on an acoustic guitar or even without any instrument, going on a bike trip or a nice walk. When producing I always want to fit the original idea best and emphasise what made me like it in the first place. Oh and that micing technique for the drums is super cool! I don't play drums and thus don't have a drum kit, but micing one always seemed so complicated and expensive, with all those microphones. And sure, it doesn't sound as good as professionally miced, but it's totally listenable and supports the song so well!

Thanks for this. YT algorithms amaze me every so often. For a few months now, I've been getting back to simplicity as multitracking plain burns me out. We're talking a year of recovery after doing a CD project. How to get back the joy and make it simple. So I saw a Tascam DR-10X on clearance and bought one. Connected it to a dynamic mic, set it in the middle of the room and played one of my tunes. Brought it to the PC, trimmed it up, did a little EQ, compression and reverb with delay to promote it to stereo. Not bad at all. I've since picked up a fethead and fethead phantom, and an XVive P1 phantom power unit. Dozens of tests to find the best position and finally enjoying recording again. Of course just an acoustic guitar and vocal. What's most appreciated, is it forces me to work up a good take and not rely on multitracking to cut and paste a composite track from half a dozen takes. At 68, no dreams of albums or any of that - just recording my tunes for friends and my kids - to leave to them. Still have to figure out the post process - probably Har-Bal and Synthetic space after a few minutes in Reaper or Audacity. Thankfully, my friends are all retired old farts too - and enjoy the goofy stuff - warts and all ... and the kids remember me singing them to sleep at the side of their beds. Lets me get away with stuff I'd never have done at a paid gig. Nice to pass the age where there's no more need of pretense / perfection. And at my age, my favorite LPs in the early 60's were all mono. So why not? You got a nice sound on that recording - thanks for the affirmation and encouragement!

It's so beautifully simple. Just use the space to dial in the sound you want.

On a side note for those struggling with plosives, somethimg that really helped me cut down on this was slightly turning my neck away from the diaphragm of the mic, when using plosives. Another amazing tip that helped me is to be prepared to take yourself away from the mic a bit when using loud psrts of vocals, or record those separtely, with a lower input volume.

Well done my friend, That's a really great tune too. And I like like the fact that your goal was to keep it simple but good to use not the suer top of the line equiptment but good time tested stuff like the SM58. I have to say I get caught up in want ing the best stuff when I really don't have any recording experience. So this time I desided to make an at home studio I have been buying small but good stuff for a fraction of the money I had into my last studio and I just need to do the tutorials on my DAW and its not aiming lower the music I love the most is Relativly not complicated music. Anyway, I noticed several years ago one day watching that John Lennon Concert from the early 70"s I said wait John is singing through a Sure SM-58 live and it sounds as good as the Condencer micshe used in the studio. I think we have to keep things in perspective. Cool song again. I'm going to go to it myself today you moved me to action.

This makes me so happy! Glad you're going to go for it! The home studio equipment these days is all pretty fantastic; as long as it works well with your computer I think you can't go wrong with any name brand equipment. DAWs are incredibly powerful, I started on Garageband and upgraded to Logic about 11 years ago (actually helped me learn how to use Final Cut Pro when I started doing video to); but again they all do the same thing and you can't go wrong with any program these days. The SM58 can sound terrific, but it definitely needs EQ. Deep in my heart I still want a tube condenser but that will be in the distant future. Thanks!

Hey Mate, Yamaha has the AG-06 USB mixer for just over $200. 2 mic channels with good preamps and 4 line level inputs. Great monitoring for playback recording where you can easily adjust both the playback and headphone mix (even the RodeCaster can't do this). I've used one for many years. It also has effects like reverb etc and compression, and you can even have the reverb on while singing etc and not have it record. There's also a loopback feature whereby you can record anything playing on your PC. A magic little mixer.

The studio here is built around a Scarlett 18i20 3rd generation, which works great for all my purposes (sometimes have to do a full band, and it expands out to 16 channels). This song was all about limitations, I wanted to use a really cheap interface and a ubiquitous microphone to show younger musicians what they can do with what they already have. I've never been into recording with reverb and compression (it changes the way I perform). Do you use it for music or podcasting?

Thanks. You're correct it's not a very dynamic mix, but like most modern recordings (save for classical) that's what most listeners expect. I suppose I could have removed an element from the second verse to add some contrast but I was happy with the simple arrangement and didn't want to do anything to mess that up. When I want something "more" to fatten things up I usually write some counterpoint, maybe a background vocal in that case. but this is really just an exercise in the fundamentals of production, arranging and songwriting.

Thanks, about the direct monitoring: I'm referring to other interfaces by competing companies that have DSP/no latency software mixers and real time effects. 20 years ago Focusrite made the Mbox with Digidesign and with a simple knob you could control how much mix was coming from the live inputs vs the computer playback, this Focusrite gen 3 solo can't do that. In addition, it has really poor playback volume with the direct monitor engaged. I'd recommend a different interface.

The Shure SM58 won’t have as much detail as a condenser but will sound good with EQ and compression.

Both great pieces but I would do some more research. Processing a microphone takes time and practice (EQ compression and de-esser). Might want to spend more and get something like a Rode Nt1 if you like the condenser sound. Take your time and listen to a lot of mics, do more reading and watch some more videos .

Good for you young man ! Back in the day (1961) we had 1 mic, 1 MONO tape machine, and 1 basement. And friends that could actually play music. Next step ? Learn how to record WITHOUT Eq, overdrive, etc. We didn't need that nonsense, neither do you ! Best of success, hit me up with questions if you like. Bill P.

Every one of Bono's U2 vocals was famously recorded in the back of the control room with a 58. It's not the gear.

I don't know why but everytime I record my voice with this mic my voice doesn't sound great and kind of weak. Does it mean that's just actually my voice or there is something wrong with my setting? It feels like the mic can't capture my voice in a whole, and if I sing loudly the recording result sounds really bad, so many noises in the file. I don't know how to explain it in english. It makes my voice sounds like I get flu. Or it sounds like ...hmmm...mono audio?

The mic needs quite a bit of gain and needs to be close to the source. If you’re trying to get the recording louder you will need to use limiting. Research gain staging and recording 101 topics. Good luck.

Sir , nice video, please Suggest me Good Mic And Audio Interface for poetry recording. But I want professional quality. Suggest me Shure or Sennheiser Good mic
@revevague6256 Жыл бұрын
Thanks. If your recording space isn't heavily treated a dynamic like the Shure SM7b would work well. It's a professional broadcast microphone. Needs a strong preamp but something like a Klark Teknik mic booster would do the job. A lot of the new interfaces work really well (would still likely need the mic booster) I'm not crazy about the Focusrite Scarlett Solo (doesn't have good direct monitoring, makes it difficult to hear your voice while recording), so something by MOTU, Presonus (the Audiobox is nice) or other company with a good reputation could work well.

The Sm58 could be a good option. Might need an extra pop filter (especially if you’re close to the mic). It will need some compression and EQ to open up nicely (maybe de-esser too). I made a video on each topic that might help.
