I like the idea of islands. This concept also works for other artists, not just musicians. It really enables the artist to move freely from one task to another as the inspiration moves their soul.
So typical. Me to Germans: Sprechen sie English? Germans, in English, wearing house shoes with mushrooms on them: A little bit. Let me continue our discussion about the thing we are talking about in technical detail.
in the film "in Bruges", this phenomenon is portrayed hilariously and accurately. A flemish girl replies to "Not that well" to the question if she spoke English, yet continues the conversation employing a vocabulary rich enough to flabbergast the Irish bloke who asked her the question, even going so far that he visibly doesn't know certain words, and tries to mirror her manner of speech to further attempt to impress and flirt with her, readily using words about which he's clearly uncertain of their precise meaning. The western european mainland's peoples are often well versed in English, yet downplay their proficiency because they may know some person amongst their acquaintances who's even more fluent, somewhat becoming a victim of impostor syndrome in that area. In the Netherlands, it is not that strange to have had an English training opportunity to the level of Cambridge Proficiency during secondary school, making you (on paper) a near-native or even native level speaker if trained regularly.
The movement aspect of your studio was one thing that stood out to me personally. I kept thinking that I need to have everything in one place. But for ergonomics in my 40s I love the idea of some things being standing, some for sitting. Some for reaching. Keeping me alternating positions is a great idea!
A thoroughly enjoyable wander through your magical mystery room. It's a joy to see all the colourful and inspiring instruments and tools in there too. Thanks for sharing this (now I'd better get round to making a video tour myself one day too!) 😀
Just when I thought I had a lot of stuff. 😮 Fascinating walthrough, really interesting to hear about your ever evolving space. On a related note - the cup holder is a must have. I bought a broken synth and opening it revealed the reason for it not working was hot chocolate.
One of the most beautiful studios I've ever seen. Congratulations, my friend! PS: That studio is screaming for an audio-reactive visual system! If you ever see one of my own that you like, let me know.
it's mindblowing for me just to think about connecting all these intruments together and making it all work coherently, id die to have something like this one day. i love your music, your studio and all your equiment is so sick!!!
The best parts of this great video are just seeing the obvious joy of a nice person playing with the things they love! Edit: (oh and the mushroom slippers!) :D
What’s inspiring there is to find So much pièces of synths in not a big room and still be able to move from One parcels to another ! What i like also, is the fact that machines choosen are not all the big star but some pièces of electronic music like clavioline, also japanese or russian items...it makes a studio collection from worlwide gears...that what i found inspiring, not only common stuff or expensive last gems but like a travel and collectors found in years like a journey info sound... Nice museum mister ! Thanks for the visit 🤗
Archipelagos of sound! Always interesting to see how someone approaches the challenge of having a lot of inspiring, useful instruments and effects in a studio. Being able to move individuals of the 'islands' populace to another island would be on my wish list. Having to wear two hats (studio vs. band member) has given me the opportunity to explore what works best in each (and both) environment(s).
This might sound weird, but I watched a video on Missoni, the makers of your sweater (I assume), and there’s lots of overlaps with synth discussion! They came up with a complex and very ingenious way of producing high quality textures in fabric, very analog and quite fascinating.
@@Hainbach It might have been this one! ua-cam.com/video/22piABN9fyk/v-deo.htmlm22s ! The whole video is ok but I wish I could find a more technical and historical explanation of the whole process
@@Hainbach Your video is great by the way! I like the idea that music and textile manufacruring are intertwined (!) somewhat, especially in Italy. Émilie Gillet of Mutable Instruments seems to be on board with the idea, judging by the name of her modules
Haha next instrument in the studio will be Missoni machine. Love this sound. And the form makes me think about the Hainbach's installation with tape losing information
What an eclectic and somewhat foreign (to a westerner like me) collection that just screams "Hainbach, it's good to have you back" - but is also cozy and unique at the same time. Fantastic. Thanks for the tour!
Thank you for showing us your space and touching on some of your toys, your sacred objects. The layout of your islands seems important and significant to you in your creative process. Thank you Mrs Hainbach for filming but also for nurturing this most precious soul. All of this kit must have instruction booklets and cases and odd extra wires and bits and bobs... I wonder where you keep all that stuff? May you always be recapped
Your enthusiasm always comes through in your videos.thanks. As an aside shouldn’t have been surprised to see such a rarity, cause if anyone on the planet could get good use out of a Fizmo😉, I should have figured it would be you! Thanks for the tour!
What a great tour! Your comment about you still might change something reminded me of something James Blake said on the latest Mylarmelodies Podcast: When a room is done, it's dead. To me, this was a bit of an eye-opener. I was always chasing that “my studio is done” moment where everything has its place. Now I am trying to embrace the change, as nothing is permanent, and rearrange things regularly. Maybe you find this helpful too 🙂
You are pure inspiration , i find the way you talk , the way you express feeling towards music very charming , I'm a big fan of synth , vintage and new one , i have two synth right now , one made by myself from an old broken electronic piano and i would love to get one day some russian one , for some reason vintage russian synth are awesome , i found your channel just couple of weeks ago and i started watching all your videos and i love it , keep it going , you have really a magical "Aura" on the way you make this Art , thank you for your awesome work
Its beautiful! I love the layout. Insipiring to the max. Such a nice break from looking at other peoples ''studio'' where its just a laptop and a tiny one octave botique keyboard.
Alter, das ist ein Set-Up! Don‘t you feel overwhelmend by the endless possibilities coming from your gear? You‘ve mentioned it at the end of your tour. I can‘t even imagine how to come up with ideas, stick to them with the aim to finish something without getting lost in the gear. I would love to learn about your creative process from start to finish. LG und Danke für diese Einblicke :)

Hi Hainbach, have you tried the Subharchorden? 1 of 4 synths made in old Berlin :) There is one in norway i know and there is a documentary: i cant put a link here ...it gets deleted (?) search for NRK and Subharchorden
Your studio is very inspiring. I like the different stations. The balance between vintage, analog, digital, and retro hardware is incredible. I can tell you care for your machines. The warm sounds of the vintage hardware works well together. You have a great room with various possibilities. It's nice to have everything setup for moods and different atmospheres. My setup isn't much to look at, but it works and I have alot of options. It's nice. Keep up the inspiring work my friend. You have awesome talent.
Wow!! Great video! I am so knocked out by what you do and the amazing and unique sounds you create. It seems impossibly complex to me ( I do own a nice Korg O1pro x synth, but certainly am a relative neophyte when it comes to electronic music) but yet I just love the wild sounds you get, the crazy and esoteric gear you use...though I doubt I could ever do what you do,I am really happy you are doing it, and very much look forward to new sounds coming from Studio Hainbach ! Keep doing what you are doing..please! And thanks for putting up cool vids like this .
A great tour Hainbach, some beautiful sounding instruments . .. B U T what on earth was that noise coming from my all time favourite sounding instrument, the Fender Rhodes. I’ll forgive you because you’re such a pleasure to listen to. P E A C E : )
A Ramsa WR-S4424! Oh man, I have that as well! I have the 4412 too, got that first. I've recorded a bunch of records on them, and recently got a studio of my own set up again. So happy to have the mixer up again.
Amazing studio tour Hainbach! you studio is defiantly inspirational, thankyou for hinting how to create the kind of atmospheric tensions that wash though your soul for our collection! ❤❤❤❤
Always liked this concept of islands and submixers. I have to admit that I started implementing this system out of necessity (like converting a sitting-room into a home studio) and, like many of us, having lots of gear without ever being able to afford a 48+48 Neve console with multiple subgroups!😁
Hi Hainbach - Wonderful! I love that you say it is a hodge podge, reminds me of mine 😀 I'm onto my third, having totally removed EVERYTHING from the previous ones. Studios develop and change according to the creative needs of the user I think. Wonder what yours will be like in 5 years... 😁
Alter, das ist ein Set-Up und Studio-Porn! Don‘t you feel overwhelmend by the endless possibilities coming from your gear? You mentioned it at the end of your tour. I can‘t even imagine how to come up with ideas, stick to them with the aim to finish something without getting lost in the sheer amount of gear. I would love to learn about your creative process from start to finish. LG und Danke :)
Wow! First time seeing any of your videos…this one just happen to come across my feed. New subscriber for sure! The whole island concept is very cool indeed. I liked seeing vintage gear that I never even knew existed. Thanks for making this video of your studio…well done. On a side note, Mein Vater kommt aus Vlotho….in der nahe von Hanover. (That’s my poor version of trying with help of Google…hahaha)
Looking at and listening to all that exotic stuff was absolutely amazing! (Even thru my iPad speakers). Now I want to check out your bandcamp stuff to really appreciate the spund of that gorgeous studio.
Love your vids. Ever since I saw you do the Vestax Faderboard video I've been scouring eBay 😂 Great setup. You can see how much you love sound in general, which for me is absolute reason for making music.
When I die , can I have my ashes scattered around in your studio , okay maybe not but I just love your studio , it's like a mix between a music studio and a scientific laboratory, it's just so interesting and cool
I always have to laugh when I watch your vids! How can that be? Wonderful, you're a great inspiration to me. I know what music I will be doing for the next months - first I will build kind of a soundboard then... lets see.
You have a very nice studio setup with lots of very interesting and unusual gear. It is really nice to see laboratory test equipment used for music applications, which is way beyond the scope of what it was originally designed for.
Thank you for the tour! Cool to see everything in the scope of a cohesive system of “islands”. The room treatment itself was especially fascinating. However, I confess I became fixated when I saw the Korg X911. I’ve used several guitar synthesizers but this remains my favourite for a few reasons, not the least of which is it’s beautiful, musical, very controllable , and sub-aquatic glitching. I used it extensively for a few years as a guitar synth/processor, drum machine processor and vocal processor/synth. What it can do to vocals is like nothing I’ve ever heard. I remixed a friend’s song and sent her vocals through it. One part where she crescendos and the x911 freaks out just sends me through the roof every time I hear it. Another recording features a break with a fairly static Omnichord rhythm going through the x911 while I’m playing with the filter and such. Transformed it with the most savoury and palatable crunch. Like crunch with a “ch” instead of the “c”. A chrunch. Even a shrunch. I know they’ve been reviewed a fair bit in recent years though I’ve yet to see applications similar to what I’ve pursued. Most tend to seek harsh “industrial” and aleatoric results which is fine and it certainly can excel at, but it’s also very capable of warm ocean sandbars disappearing and reappearing with the tides. I’ve just brought it out again after a decade of sleep and will be looking to trigger it with a sequencer. Not many that work with it, but I think the SQ-1 will. Are you able to verify that? It also does track a monophonic audio source perfectly as long as the sound is pure and simple without much envelope variation. Like a simple bass patch. Also, I want to thank you so much for your session regarding incorporating noise into projects and performances. It’s helped to reaffirm a love of making/incorporating field recordings of nature sounds, from hypnotic insects to birds to humans with all our clanking and roaring about. I hope to be using the gorgeous NOISES plug-in of yours too, once I start using a computer more or an IOS version is developed. Again, thank you for all the hard and relentless work of bringing your art to us. And thank you and congratulations to your co-creator on her new position as filmographer. It takes patience and dedication to have an eye for detail. The feet were a great touch haha. A line of colourful socks...hmm...well, like you said, the studio is always changing and expanding. ;)
Late to the party on this video (but not to the Hainbach Party!) but this is just wonderful. Truly an honour to have supplied a couple of things to such an inspiring and creative person and studio.
With so much electronic equipment that gets regular use - I’m curious to know if you power things on and off as you use them, or if you leave everything on all the time.
So great! I am designing my first 'real' home studio space for our new house, and this video was very inspirational. I especially love the idea of self contained 'islands' grouping things together that play together. Thank you so much for your constant inspiration.
The Islands concept works very well, Ive had it setup that way before, but the problem with it is that I tend to stay on one island for too long! I get so hyperfocused I forget about the Archipelago of the other stations Ive set up. But your islands seem well thought out, well developed. Thanks for sharing
Ahh... Looks like your wife is almost going to cry at the end. She did a great job - much love from the Netherlands 🥰 Nice tour, great studio. It shows that you don't need to be a furniture builder in order to create a desk for your synths 😉
This video is such a trip, thank you for making it, I enjoyed the entire experience. "The Wall of Test Equipment' section really grabbed me... Everything about the sounds and workflow of that gear brought me back to my first days using modular synths :-)
Flipping crazy in its all. but the wall of test equipment is just something that sounds like nothing else... everything i have heard you do with it has sounded amazing.
Hainbach, you are a very nice example, that not always it is contra productive to have more and more instruments for music. Myself lost control after having more and more old and rare instruments. In the beginnig it has been a big fund to start with 1 + 1 instruments, a S.O.S. Akai Take machine and a Washburn digital delay. but after a while it is more and more complicated to connect all machines and at the same time family and kids ... So I must say it stopped and I have to sell a lot of nice instruments with a lot of tears. And last but not least, I found out, hat some of the instruments doesn't work anymore like in the past, so they need some restauration. Funny, I can recognize some of my old instruments in Hainbach's studio ;) I started in the 70's with synths, then effects and recorder, after this with a lot of drum machines and even more effects in analogue and digital manor. Because my space is smaller and smaller I can't start again, but I hope, one day I have space and time to get back to the good old times! ;)
Thank you heinbach. You have done so much to introduce me further into the world of beautiful ambient sound. I had a thought when watching, when did you as a musician transition from 'traditional' what my peers may call 'proper or good' musicianship into where you are now in ambient compositions? I would love to watch a video explaining your personal music journey??? My background is guitar and bass playing in indie rock bands but am slowly creating soundscapes and embracing the beauty in different sonic textures and compositional options in my small homestudio. (Original 1982 fostex x-15 4 track) I'm a noob but your a cool guy Heinbach. :)
I missed the premier because I was at work. But one of my favorite pieces of eye candy in your studio is the Legend of Zelda sticker on your wall. While I love Koji Kondo's compositions, dungeons using ambient music you compose for them would sound so epic. I know you'll get the feeling just right!
Strange for me is that my studio environment moves more and more into your direction… after long times on the hunt for the perfect gear and setup I’m now more on gathering old tv-tubes, tapes and radios, springs and wooden boxes…

I have a piano in the next room, I bought a 30ft xlr cable just for it lmao
Yeah.. I like islands too, sound work islands and islands.
Great video.
The content is obviously brilliant but kudos also to Mrs. Hainbach for absolutely dope camera work!
Hainbach: “I realized the studio will never be perfect.”
Also Hainbach: [showing us the perfect studio literally while saying the sentence above]
So typical.

On a related note - the cup holder is a must have. I bought a broken synth and opening it revealed the reason for it not working was hot chocolate.

The amount of genius required to man a room like this and maintain so much creative integrity is insane. Much respect

The delight when the programmer worked was life giving, thank you Hainbach
Man, those ribbon mics on your piano sounded luscious. My goodness!
So great to see all the instruments from your other videos living in their natural habitat!
The best thing is that despite all this variety of equipment, it all sounds like Hainbach when you play it.

Your channel is very inspiring. It forces me to be creative in my recordings
Thanks Hainbach, I needed your intro today 😌😊
What an amazing creativity-sparking space
As an, admittedly recent as I just found you, inspiration to me and my music it’s so awesome to see your studio!
I really enjoyed this studio tour. Thanks for sharing
I don't think I've ever heard anyone say "I made a mix bus, that's my sound", but it makes sense and I love the idea.
What a cool collection! I can see why you find it inspiring. Many of those keyboards are things I've never seen before.
Hi Hainbach - Wonderful! I love that you say it is a hodge podge, reminds me of mine 😀 I'm onto my third, having totally removed EVERYTHING from the previous ones. Studios develop and change according to the creative needs of the user I think. Wonder what yours will be like in 5 years... 😁

I would love to learn about your creative process from start to finish. LG und Danke :)
Wow! First time seeing any of your videos…this one just happen to come across my feed. New subscriber for sure!
The whole island concept is very cool indeed. I liked seeing vintage gear that I never even knew existed.
Thanks for making this video of your studio…well done.
On a side note, Mein Vater kommt aus Vlotho….in der nahe von Hanover. (That’s my poor version of trying with help of Google…hahaha)
Bought my Watkins copycat from a car boot sale with my first 4 track got both for £35!!!
Love it, nice to see someone else using one 😃
Looking at and listening to all that exotic stuff was absolutely amazing! (Even thru my iPad speakers). Now I want to check out your bandcamp stuff to really appreciate the spund of that gorgeous studio.
That Wersi Pianostar has got such a rich and haunting sound that could accompany anything needing a sombre mood. Great sound!!
Love your vids. Ever since I saw you do the Vestax Faderboard video I've been scouring eBay 😂
Great setup. You can see how much you love sound in general, which for me is absolute reason for making music.
Geezus begeezus, that's some complexity right there. Glad to see the extensive list of sponsors including "Imbecilicus Rex".
When I die , can I have my ashes scattered around in your studio , okay maybe not but I just love your studio , it's like a mix between a music studio and a scientific laboratory, it's just so interesting and cool
What great setup! congratulations! Greetings from Brasil!
I always have to laugh when I watch your vids! How can that be? Wonderful, you're a great inspiration to me. I know what music I will be doing for the next months - first I will build kind of a soundboard then... lets see.
Beautiful Studio 😃the Telefunken M15 is a very good Machine - I use a Studer A62 for tape recording (built 1964)
Wow, what a setup and no wonder you sound as unique as you do!
I loved this tour. So neat to get a view of the whole space.
Love your music. Love you videos. You are so inspiring.
I like the idea of having “islands” set up in the studio, then just running them to a central console. You just gave me some ideas. 😁
You have a very nice studio setup with lots of very interesting and unusual gear. It is really nice to see laboratory test equipment used for music applications, which is way beyond the scope of what it was originally designed for.
Subscribed Hainbach finally, the German gem. Danke - weiter mit deinen Videos.
Thank you for the tour! Cool to see everything in the scope of a cohesive system of “islands”. The room treatment itself was especially fascinating. However, I confess I became fixated when I saw the Korg X911. I’ve used several guitar synthesizers but this remains my favourite for a few reasons, not the least of which is it’s beautiful, musical, very controllable , and sub-aquatic glitching. I used it extensively for a few years as a guitar synth/processor, drum machine processor and vocal processor/synth. What it can do to vocals is like nothing I’ve ever heard. I remixed a friend’s song and sent her vocals through it. One part where she crescendos and the x911 freaks out just sends me through the roof every time I hear it. Another recording features a break with a fairly static Omnichord rhythm going through the x911 while I’m playing with the filter and such. Transformed it with the most savoury and palatable crunch. Like crunch with a “ch” instead of the “c”. A chrunch. Even a shrunch. I know they’ve been reviewed a fair bit in recent years though I’ve yet to see applications similar to what I’ve pursued. Most tend to seek harsh “industrial” and aleatoric results which is fine and it certainly can excel at, but it’s also very capable of warm ocean sandbars disappearing and reappearing with the tides. I’ve just brought it out again after a decade of sleep and will be looking to trigger it with a sequencer. Not many that work with it, but I think the SQ-1 will. Are you able to verify that? It also does track a monophonic audio source perfectly as long as the sound is pure and simple without much envelope variation. Like a simple bass patch.
Also, I want to thank you so much for your session regarding incorporating noise into projects and performances. It’s helped to reaffirm a love of making/incorporating field recordings of nature sounds, from hypnotic insects to birds to humans with all our clanking and roaring about. I hope to be using the gorgeous NOISES plug-in of yours too, once I start using a computer more or an IOS version is developed. Again, thank you for all the hard and relentless work of bringing your art to us. And thank you and congratulations to your co-creator on her new position as filmographer. It takes patience and dedication to have an eye for detail. The feet were a great touch haha. A line of colourful socks...hmm...well, like you said, the studio is always changing and expanding. ;)
Late to the party on this video (but not to the Hainbach Party!) but this is just wonderful. Truly an honour to have supplied a couple of things to such an inspiring and creative person and studio.
With so much electronic equipment that gets regular use - I’m curious to know if you power things on and off as you use them, or if you leave everything on all the time.
the real question is : how he got all that money to buy all it ? les riches sont des voleurs.
Wonderful Studio. Happy poti turning and button pressing :)
thank you so much for the tour!
This is a very ‘courageous’ setup … but so inspiring. Wish I could sit in the corner for a week and watch you explore.
amazing. thanks for the tour.
So great! I am designing my first 'real' home studio space for our new house, and this video was very inspirational. I especially love the idea of self contained 'islands' grouping things together that play together. Thank you so much for your constant inspiration.
Never underestimate the power of a pull-out surface/shelf 👍🏽😎 awesome studio, thanks for sharing!
What a great tour! Your studio is definitely the reflection of your unique personality
Blimey! Must have had a small win since I last visited your channel.
The Islands concept works very well, Ive had it setup that way before, but the problem with it is that I tend to stay on one island for too long! I get so hyperfocused I forget about the Archipelago of the other stations Ive set up. But your islands seem well thought out, well developed. Thanks for sharing
gotta love the camera men and women in our lives hahaha amazing room dude...id live in that room
Ahh...
Looks like your wife is almost going to cry at the end. She did a great job - much love from the Netherlands 🥰
Nice tour, great studio. It shows that you don't need to be a furniture builder in order to create a desk for your synths 😉
Alchemist lab exposed! Love it! Great camera work showing all the details.
Everyone talks about what instrument they'd want on a desert island, and here's Hainbach making islands of instruments.
😀👌🏼🎯
Thank you so much for the tour! I hope you're running on solar power!!
What a superb collection of beautiful oddball gear! 😍
This video is such a trip, thank you for making it, I enjoyed the entire experience. "The Wall of Test Equipment' section really grabbed me... Everything about the sounds and workflow of that gear brought me back to my first days using modular synths :-)
Amazing studio!!! 🎛🎚🎤🎧🎹
#AnalogBrothers
Flipping crazy in its all. but the wall of test equipment is just something that sounds like nothing else... everything i have heard you do with it has sounded amazing.
Hainbach, you are a very nice example, that not always it is contra productive to have more and more instruments for music. Myself lost control after having more and more old and rare instruments. In the beginnig it has been a big fund to start with 1 + 1 instruments, a S.O.S. Akai Take machine and a Washburn digital delay. but after a while it is more and more complicated to connect all machines and at the same time family and kids ... So I must say it stopped and I have to sell a lot of nice instruments with a lot of tears. And last but not least, I found out, hat some of the instruments doesn't work anymore like in the past, so they need some restauration. Funny, I can recognize some of my old instruments in Hainbach's studio ;) I started in the 70's with synths, then effects and recorder, after this with a lot of drum machines and even more effects in analogue and digital manor. Because my space is smaller and smaller I can't start again, but I hope, one day I have space and time to get back to the good old times! ;)
Thank you heinbach. You have done so much to introduce me further into the world of beautiful ambient sound.
I had a thought when watching, when did you as a musician transition from 'traditional' what my peers may call 'proper or good' musicianship into where you are now in ambient compositions? I would love to watch a video explaining your personal music journey???
My background is guitar and bass playing in indie rock bands but am slowly creating soundscapes and embracing the beauty in different sonic textures and compositional options in my small homestudio. (Original 1982 fostex x-15 4 track)
I'm a noob but your a cool guy Heinbach. :)
Such a beautiful and inspiring studio!
So ein nices GearPorn video habe ich schon lange nicht mehr gesehen.!!! Liked Aboniert !!!!
Ihrer Frau gebührt ein großes Dankeschön........ Huge shout out to Hainbach's wife!! 😁
I missed the premier because I was at work. But one of my favorite pieces of eye candy in your studio is the Legend of Zelda sticker on your wall. While I love Koji Kondo's compositions, dungeons using ambient music you compose for them would sound so epic. I know you'll get the feeling just right!
Some of the wonderful sounds he makes would suit a Portal, or Portal-like game wonderfully too, If Valve gets around to it
Strange for me is that my studio environment moves more and more into your direction… after long times on the hunt for the perfect gear and setup I’m now more on gathering old tv-tubes, tapes and radios, springs and wooden boxes…
