Recording Studio Tour: Patigonia Studios - Warren Huart: Produce Like A Pro

[@AlbertoDati]

One of the best episodes of the whole series. This man knows how to do it.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi +Alberto Dati Thanks very much for your great comment I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@GregWurth]

Wow that's pretty awesome you think so! thanks Alberto!

[@AlbertoDati]

Greg Wurth I see you are using 2 apollos, while I imagine Warren is using an Avid rig. What do you think about Apollo converters?

[@GregWurth]

+Alberto Dati I like the Apollos very much they sound great. I actually have upgraded to an HD Native card along with a Lynx Aurora since the video was shot. I had plenty of uad cards so I didn't lose the plug in power but I gained more digital IO which I was lacking from the Apollo units. If the Apollo had more digital connectivity I wouldn't have needed to switch.

[@noisesoundtonevibe]

A tape machine that used to belong to Lieber and Stoller!!! How incredible is that! I actually said "Oh, WOW!!!" out loud. Not only is it a sexy piece of gear, it's a piece of history! Thanks Warren for these tours, they make me happy.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi noisesoundtonevibe thanks very much for the great comment I really appreciate it! Agreed an amazing piece of history! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@HowardH]

You guys have to do more videos together. I love the back and forth between the two of you. That setup is fantastic. It's like the opposite of a night in Vegas, nothing but good, well thought out decisions.

[@AdamSpade]

Warren, I can't tell you how many times I have said "I can't believe I missed this video". Great content as always. I learn so much from videos like this. It's such a blast. :)

[@Producelikeapro]

Check out Greg Wurth showing us his analog approach to digital mixing using an Inward Connections Summing Mixer and a Slate Raven MTi. Let me know what you think! Many thanks Warren

[@BrandonBeckwith]

It's so cool to hear that Greg was inspired by King Tubby! King Tubby is the reason I got into engineering! Thanks so much for all of the videos you post, I've learned so much from you! I really appreciate it and your videos are a lot of fun to watch as well!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Brandon Beckwith yes Greg has amazing taste! Thanks very much for your kind words, glad you enjoy the videos, I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@GregWurth]

+Brandon Beckwith That's awesome! Have you tried the new UAD-2 AKG spring reverb?

[@BrandonBeckwith]

+Greg Wurth No I actually don't own any UAD plugins, but I would love to try them out in the future. Right now for spring reverb I'm using Psp Audioware's Spring Box plugin.

[@REBELDONOG]

King Tubby is one of the greats. So dope! Thanks and big up!

[@JedWunderli]

Loving all of the studio tours, Warren. Keep 'em coming. Really looking forward to part two of LInda's studio - :) I love the set-up of Greg's studio with all of the various mic pre's, compressors and eqs along with the Raven by Slate. I wish Steve Furlot was my friend. Cool mix rack.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Jed Wunderli thanks very much for your kind words! I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@TheOompahRoundabout]

I love seeing other peoples studio's! I'm so a beginner at all this and still haven't worked out how to set up me patch bays! Haha but I'll get there. Great vid as always. :)

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi TheOompahRoundabout thanks! I love making the videos! Thanks very much! I really appreciate it! Have an amazing time recording, many thanks Warren

Instablaster.

[@bobbydreg5597]

Love the sharing of gear secrets!

[@helloriker]

I love seeing inside these studios. That mixing desk he has is the perfect size to fit into my current room. I might have to build something similar!

[@GregWurth]

Steven Butler I know a guy...

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Steven Butler yes I have a great time doing these studio videos and Greg Wurth is a true gentleman! Thanks very much I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@helloriker]

Greg Wurth I know :) He did some gorgeous work. I also do a bit of carpentry. My dad is into it hard core and has a fairly extensive woodshop so it gives me projects I can do with him.

[@Producelikeapro]

That's great Steven Butler! My Dad is also great with wood, he built my first guitar!! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@helloriker]

Produce Like A Pro That's cool. I am actually working on a cigar box guitar project with my Dad and we built an 8 guitar rack the other day. Had so many guitars laying around now they are all neatly stored.

[@bradproskoproduction]

Glad to hear I’m not alone on the bass DI thing lol. Another great interview.

[@cscarr7225]

Thanks for sharing this video. The gear at Greg's studio is awesome. I hope you get to go back to Greg's studio and do a video using the Burl and UAD (hardware & software)...!!! Thanks. I've learned a lot from your videos and will look forward to more...!!!

[@GregWurth]

Glad you enjoyed it. Warren is welcome back anytime.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi CS Carr Thanks very much for your great comment I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks Greg Wurth! I'll definitely take you up on that!

[@fusionid]

Super cool stuff. Thanks for doing this. A couple of questions if you have the time. Is Greg usually tracking with EQ in? I am guessing the console is set up from top to bottom and signal follows that way? I would have thought he doesn't need the summing box since he can send the signal routing individually to the neve eqs as warren does with the SSL. The neves must be transistor coupled from the get go and I am sure will color/add harmonics/kiss the transients

[@GregWurth]

My patchbay is normalled from mic panel to Neve 1084's into Pro tools. I usually use compression while tracking so I patch those into the chain or if I want to use the Burl or 312a's I patch those in as well. It's a bit different layout than I've set up at Steve Vai's studio. The summing mixer is used only for mixing. This room is completely modular.

[@GregWurth]

Also in regards to using neves for mixing I am only using the mic pre/eq modules so they require the inward unit for summing. I hope that answers your question.

[@Mordeleitor]

What is the name of that unit? 25:40

[@jamescreekmusic]

Lovely info. Thx!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi James Creek Thanks very much I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@L.Scott_Music]

How did this slip by me? Well, I've been pretty busy I guess. Another great video Warren. I really like his mixing desk and that is the sort of thing I can build myself (although I'll have a Fader Port 8 instead of the Raven and a big monitor on top.)

[@riharrds]

Thx for sharing insights :)

[@jannmaas]

Hi Greg, nice place !!! U use the UAD apollo 16 with a mac pro tower. Do U use it with thunderbolt or firewire 800 ? Thanks ! Gr, Jan

[@musahenderson]

Are either of those speakers non ported? Do you have any recommendations for non ported monitors. Expect ns10's

[@GregWurth]

The Eve's are ported but the Unity Audio Rock's are not. The Rocks are something you should really hear. They are an amazing monitor.

[@GregWurth]

Email me at [e-mail] I'm happy to discuss more about it.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Greg Wurth I want to hear those speakers!! Haha

[@GregWurth]

I will bring you a pair to try Warren

[@Producelikeapro]

Fantastic Greg Wurth!! I really appreciate it!

[@dwaynewyatt3836]

I love this video!!! Thanks so much for doing these!!! Question... When you print a di guitar or base as well as an amp, how do you go about capturing that signal flow wise? Noob question obviously!!! Haha Of course you mic the amp but how do you get the raw di guitar into pro tools??? Thanks again for taking the time to do this!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi +Dwayne Wyatt Great question! It depends, do you have a Di box? If so you could come out of the through into the amp and then into a mic input from XLR output on the back of the Di box. Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@GregWurth]

+Dwayne Wyatt From the XLR output of the DI you will want to connect that to a mic pre so that you can capture the Direct signal at a good clean level. It's recommended to always recording a DI track from Guitar and Bass.

[@mwdollar]

so cool!!!

[@gappie64]

i really love this video. thanks warren and greg for sharing this.. :) i have a silly question though. the screen used is a touch screen? and how much in is done in the box... amazing setup!!

[@GregWurth]

Gab Landman The touch screen is called the Raven MTi by Slate Digital. I use it for automation, editing, & dialing plugin settings. It's very useful. I have what is called a Hybrid setup which to me is the perfect marriage between analog and digital giving me the best of both worlds. Thanks for watching!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Greg Wurth I'm going to have to try that out! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@gappie64]

Greg Wurth thanks greg. so it is a touchscreen.. i didnt know slate made some.. i know its a hybrid setup and i can dream of something like that what you made there.. but since the video was mostly about all the amazing analogue stuff.. ive been thinking about a touch screen.. cool.. thanks

[@Producelikeapro]

I've got to try one out! Gab Landman

[@GeorgeElliasVideos]

why have the burl go into the apollo? is that necessary?

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi +GeorgeElliasVideos that's a great question! Would have to ask Greg that! Thanks very much for your great comment I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@GregWurth]

+GeorgeElliasVideos I use the Apollo to send 16 outputs into my Oracle summing mixer and the stereo buss output from the Oracle gets sent into my Burl B2 ADC which then converts the stereo mix into the digital world. To my ears the Burl does something that is sonically pleasing as it has transformers on the input similar to that of a tape machine. I hope that answers your question?

[@GeorgeElliasVideos]

+Greg Wurth yeah man, definitely. thanks a lot. really cool studio man. :)

[@GregWurth]

+GeorgeElliasVideos glad I could help. Thanks!

[@gunluv96]

Warren this was an amazing video as always. I was wondering what your thoughts are on that ADL 1500. Im looking to pick one up in a few weeks. If it worth the purchase or shouldninjust stick with a Distrssor and UAD plugins? It will be used mainly on vocals during tracking.

[@MrJordancameron]

Hey warren. Have ever been to studio 606 and done a studio tour with dave groul? If not will you in the future?

[@peterbrandt7911]

This is a nice place.

[@kame5271]

15:43 I get it now... Adam and then Eve monitors ! haha...

[@rcraigbateman]

Bluegrass mix. ... hit record

[@kenlion6439]

Love reggae 🇯🇲

[@GeorgeElliasVideos]

never touch my faders as well! stopped a couple years ago.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi +GeorgeElliasVideos yep! Thanks very much I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@Trials-and-Tribulations]

cool, thing the about apex. Metallica used it on their Black album. There's small segment in their year and a half life of Metallica video.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi ***** thanks very much for letting us know that I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@GingerDrums]

Wow. This is like a missing scene from Spinal Tap. "Im younger", "Steve has ten of these next door..." "Wheight... sounds good" LOL too much for me

[@nasanction]

Drool, Slurp, 1073's ;)

[@franciscopacobarreras9270]

Who the fuck hits dislike in a Warren Huart video? Wtf?!

[@Rgdonaire_07]

Warren it’s spelled Patagonia not Patigonia.

[@motoservo]

There at the end: "Roy's like...", lost what you were saying there, under your breath.
