[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Friend, In this video I talk with Reid Shippen, and we take a tour of his studio. He has some really amazing gear, and we talk about some of his usual applications of it all. I hope you enjoy it, and thank you ever so much for watching! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@darlenesheffield9835]

[@PhilDiCicco]

One of my favorite interviews/studio tours. Keep up the good work :)

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks very much Philip! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing! Many thanks Warren

[@noisesoundtonevibe]

Woooh. What a gorgeous and tasteful selection of gear! I'm drooling over here! Also, Joe Perry's taste never ceases to floor me... the licks he comes up with... damn. Thanks Warren and Reid!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi noisesoundtonevibe, I agree! It's an amazing selection of equipment!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@rapfreak7797]

Those Electrix MoFX are probably the most fun modulation effect ever! You can engage each effect separately or momentarily turn them on. When the effect is engaged momentary turns the effect on while you hold it. Tap tempo for easy setup. They're so great and cheap I have a couple in my studio - I keep one permanently on my DJ setup.

[@rapfreak7797]

Typo, hitting momentary turns the effect off when engaged is selected.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi rap freak, I agree the Electrix stuff is great! Thanks for the great comment! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@YHRS]

I think that we need Reid Shippen Part II: The Forbidden Room. let's see that tracking room :-)

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha yes coming up I promise!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@DanielKomarek]

when?

[@DRMusicRecordings]

Reid is one of the few guys that I actually really really listen too....!! Amazing sir!

[@Producelikeapro]

Fantastic!! Yes Reid rules!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@CarcPazu]

I had a marvelous time watching this. Good stuff!

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks CarcPazu, I really appreciate it!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@PeterChunmusic]

That "oh dear" at the end 😂😂 do a PTII! Would love to see his mic collection and his live room set up

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Peter, haha yes another video is definitely needed!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@dylandylan11731]

Warren- FYI as an Australian Audio Engineer- I've got an admission to make... I've worked often in the previous years with Leo Sayer- An absolute beautiful Man, nicest and most humble man in show business!!!! And man, knows how to write a hit!!! :)

[@ArthurStone]

Thanks Warren and Reid. Always great to see the gear - interesting to hear how it's used.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Arthur, you Rock! Thanks very much! Yes, Reid Rules! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@antoniorobbins6768]

Produce like a pro rocks!! All of your uploads are intriguing, super cool and legit. There are so many blah blah blah shows out there but you set yourself apart by starting from the get go... immediatley talking about AUDIO. Doing a great job!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Antonio, aw shucks!! Thanks very much indeed! You RICK!! Have a marvellous time reacording and mixing, many thanks Warren!

[@robertevvers9493]

"I do weird stuff too!" lol....Great video! Thanks Warren

[@jasonsimmons7479]

That's the difference between recording for a living and recording in your basement. A whole room of different kick-ass analog compressors!

[@andrewwhitehouse1878]

Hey Warren. Is there any chance you could elaborate on the split vocal technique you mentioned, is there a particular splitter you’d recommend for maintaining HD?

[@jolyoncox]

Really enjoyed that one, Warren. Thanks.

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks Jolyon, I really appreciate it! Have a marvellous time reacording and mixing, many thanks Warren!

[@ms20user]

Cool a Nag Champa Big Box on the nice Modulation Rack :)

[@fallicarusTV]

I would love to hear more about that Triad transformer and how he has that wired. Looks like a really neat way to patch in some colour that I've never seen anyone do before.

[@Producelikeapro]

HI Neil, that;s a great question! Me too! Have a marvellous time reacording and mixing, many thanks Warren!

[@monohenrik]

There's a plugin that does the dobly vocal trick. It's called Satin by U-He.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Mono, thanks very much! That's a great tip!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@tootory9506]

Hello Warren, at about 32:30 you say “I went 1073 and I split and I did parallel compression and I printed parallel” Did you mean you split the vocal having one going into the DBX and one going into the 1176 and printed each of them individually? Or did you print 1 Neve strip with nothing on it and then the other channel with both the DBX and the 1176 on the same channel?? Haha. Obviously I will experiment but I’m just curious what you meant. Thanks as always Warren!! and you too, have a marvelous time mixing and recording 🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@monkeyxx]

Wow he does have a problem. And I love him for that.

[@Str8Jaket3d]

I needed this Warren!..after watching the other video of him I was hoping you would get a chance to do a side by side interview/tour..and here it is ..be sure to pick up one of those power devices he talked about in teh last one ;)...cheers Warren adn thank you..! Anthony...

[@Str8Jaket3d]

"Oh dear oh dear"..jump edit to handshake..now I won;t sleep until I find out what was in the back room..dang it..

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Str8Jaket3d, thanks very much!! I had an amazing time talking with Reid and seeing his amazing collection of equipment!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@Str8Jaket3d]

Immediately shared to my FB page as usual..keep on making these Warren..makes for great breaks ...

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks for sharing Str8Jaket3d! I really appreciate it!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@Stu.6]

Most of the glue plugins or ssl type bus sound as good if not better than that ssl desk bus comp now 👍

[@wadewilliams1892]

I’m unfamiliar with his work - What would you say is the best album he worked on?

[@utubehound69]

Wow that's a dream studio for me haha but I couldn't afford that. Knobs Buttons Faders GEAR very inspiring , yet I know in the Box now will at the end of the day will be about as good & most listeners won't hear the difference . Thx for sharing these Documentary's that should be put into a full length Film it's a Great service by Documenting these studios Warren. Get Billy Bob Thornton to do a voice over you would have a classic Historical deep look into those magic places that the Great Recordings were captured with. In the Box is GREAT but this is history Art Culture this needs to be seen beyond YT. Just a thought.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Watchman4u, yes it's an amazing studio! Haha getting Billy Bob to do the voice over! Nice! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@wwn1970]

Warren, did I miss it? Have you ever given us a comprehensive walk through of your own rig? Great episode, by the way.

[@Producelikeapro]

Great question! No not yet! haha It will come one day, I'm upgrading my system. Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@Producelikeapro]

One day Riddell! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@wwn1970]

Thanks, Warren Can't wait to see it. Cheers

[@peterbrandt7911]

Funny, I was searching the channel for exactly that a few days ago. Maybe you even manage to be interviewed by whoever and make it a kind of mirrored episode? Talking about interviews: Brian Eno and or Alan Wilder would be really nice.

[@andrewbyers5470]

I have some of those CAPI mic pres they are amazing. They make one called the 312 Heider that you need to check out Warren.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Andrew, great stuff!! Yes I hear fantastic things about them! Have a marvellous time reacording and mixing, many thanks Warren!

[@allmetaliswelcome]

So you go Soft compression before limiting? Seems counterintuitive to me. What's your reasoning for it?

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Luuk, thanks for the question! Hmm no it makes perfect sense to me! haha I got it from Dave Jerden, Jack Douglas and a bunch of other guys! The basic thing is to compress the signal all of the time lightly and then catch any huge peaks, try it you'll get full fat sounding vocals! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@johnthecreative]

I heard Bitch Vig said he used to plug guitars and stuff directly into the Echo Plex - it does more than just effects apparently. I could never get them to sound the way I want but I'm sure I wasn't using it right. Seems like they either don't do enough or they do too much and it's hard to get the right combination and hard to get it to kick in at the right time or make it shut up after the effect you want finally comes out (whenever that may be).

[@Mourninghorse]

Warren within this Video you Guys touched on this, but didn't elaborate ? EQ into Compression? or Compression then EQ?? Thanks JC

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Mourninghorse, great question! EQ into Compression! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren!

[@irecki1]

Thanks Warren for another great studio tour. I am just wonder, what's on the label right below EQ in Avalon 747.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi irecki1, good question! I would guess it's settings that Reid likes? Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@matmelton]

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks Mat!! You Rock! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@Producelikeapro]

[@pclairoot]

Thx Lee

[@SoloElROY]

Hey Warren! I was wondering if you could do a studio-tour and/or interview with OMAR RODRIGUEZ! I'm really into his stuff! and there is not so much online :( Thanks! your videos are amazing!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi SoloEIROY, wow that's a fantastic idea!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@Platnumbaby]

Hello Warren, Platnum here, How important is a noise reduction in digital recordings? Does it add anything or take away? See you in the music.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Charles, it depends on what you are looking to use it for! If it's reducing noise it a very noisy signal then of course! But traditionally noise reduction was for the noise associated with Tape etc. I hope that helps? Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@Platnumbaby]

Hello, Warren do you experience hum in your DMP. I brought one after seeing your talk about it and have been using it for months. There is a slight hum. It has the mod on the transformer but still a little hum. I put a api gate on it and it works. But just wonder do you do something different or no noise at all on yours? See you in the music.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Charles, no I don't have any hum at all. They are very good at warranting their equipment, I'm sure if you call them they will help! Have a marvellous time reacording and mixing, many thanks Warren!

[@justinupchurch1773]

Why No Tube-Tech?

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Justin, despite the huge amount of equipment Reid has I'm not sure he can have EVERYTHING! Haha Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@jasonsimmons7479]

To have been shifted, just a little bit,in the sands of life, would have been awesome!

[@yonatanpandelaki]

Too bad he didn't have time to show us the tracking room, where things were actually getting interesting. But another gear fest show and great interview, Warren. Thank you!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi yonatan, yes so much gear!! It could have been a 3 hour video! haha Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@khronscave]

I think we need a "Part 3" with the tracking room itself. **wink-wink-nudge-nudge**

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi KhronX, I will definitely do another video Reid as soon as I can! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@mattcampbellmusicco.8532]

I wonder if the car Warren was talking about a Buick Cutlass? ...

[@Producelikeapro]

Hmm I don't remember what car I was talking about! Haha Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@MrKingola]

+Produce Like A Pro Hello- I believe that the Buick Skylark is what you're referencing? My dad had a gold Skylark 350 with the Quadrajet 4-barrel. It was pretty zippy. Oh, and it had those cool Buick mag wheels.

[@Producelikeapro]

Yes King Williams that's such a beautiful car!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@ManuelBrandt]

I miss the live room, the mics and the instruments...

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Manuel, thanks for the comment! Reid doesn't track in his studio, this is where he mixes. Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@777Yoni]

Can you start using the term "marvy" just to mix things up? Great interview and thanks.

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha Hi Bruce that would be Marvy!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@bloodlord1989]

At 22:06 stickers on dbx 900 series says Retro, Electra and then Darth Vader? Obiwan? lmao

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha Blood Lord! That's genius! Thanks for pointing that out! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@bloodlord1989]

Produce Like A Pro I don't know how you would have missed that lol. You did see the "no cattle" aka "No BS" sign. I thought it was a no animals sign from the distance.

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha yes I'm ashamed I didn't spot it! haha Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@utubehound69]

Ol Eagle Eye haha That's pretty cool. But where's Those Droids? Retro could have been R2D2 & Electra could have been C-P30 C for Compressor. Was There a Boba Fett in the Rack? that's gotta be the Stuff.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Watchman4u, haha Star Wars!! Yes!! There is an R2D2, it's the nickname for the EMT 250/251 Digital Reverb! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@1950flandert]

Warren Huart don`t like ATC..he like Genelec...????

[@johnthecreative]

"Jazz is shit music". - John Lennon. Seriously, Jazz really is shit music because it doesn't go anywhere and it's overly repetitive. The reason they play it in coffee shops is because it makes customers drowsy so they keep buying more coffee to stay awake. The only thing I like about it is it can be used as a sleep aid. Also there's not any more melody in it than any other kind of music.
