Do you have a hybrid analog/digital setup, or do you lean heavier in one direction?
This is a well done studio tour. Not only did you show all the gear, but you also demonstrated it with some unique sounds. Can't wait to see what you do with the 464. ✌️😎
thanks David! i like to make things interesting for me, and hope that’s interesting for other people 🙏🤘
Freakin awesome spring reverb
it's already changed my life 😂
totally , and love the EQing hybrid is the best for getting quick awesome and fat tones!!
@@harrisfrankou2368 EQ is so important when mixing with reverb, tame the low mid bass energy
And btw....that jcm800 1 12 was my first amp. Traded my dads penthouse collection and an 8 ball i stole for it back in 88. Fuck yeah way b4 all this tech
Hell yeah. This is the best channel to vicariously live thru on Work breaks.
happy to be of service!
Great to see you back bud!! Really like the space, it’s really nicely laid out and cozy!! Awesome pieces of gear as well!!! Love that Tapco!!! Looking forward to the next one.
👊🏻😎
thanks Mike! that Tapco is definitely a new favorite!
Very happy for you Chris, this looks like an awesome space! I wish you the best in your creative endeavors in 2022, I'm looking forward to a Porta Two vs. 464 shootout and that bass distortion video....
oh man, thanks for the idea Matt! 🙏🤘
I knew you’d get into modular! Nice Stu tour
ahhh thanks brother 🙏
Looks vibey. Perfect is imperfect, and imperfect is perfect. Showing that perfect and imperfect are just illusions. It's what you make it.
Those pring reverbs sounds great and twangy.
I just have a humble Vermona VSR3. But it's going back to my mixer and gets some tone control to help it a bit.
I want an open tank at some point. Have had a Knaz Ekdahl Moisturizer a couple times. But it's overdriving a little to easy for my taste and I want the filter modulation before the reverb, not after :)
100% work with what you have! I heard spring tanks aren't hard to build if you're handy...I'm not lol
@@MadeOnTape absolutely! Though I do like to try out stuff to learn if I really need/want it 😅
I'm not handy either. Benidub makes a preamp for spring tanks, but it's significantly more expensive than the spring tank itself. But it also has filter and other stuff. Don't know if any company makes a more simple one for less money though 🤔
Yay! You're back :D
back on the regular!
I tried the 688 for the EQ's and sent them out via the AUX sends into my Audient ID14.
Also the Audient went "speakers out" into the 688 but routed different as I have the DUAL and the Two Aux's.
I had the system go out into my BBE, and even the pc into the 688 into the BBE then to my Monitors...it was way better.
But the BBE has a noisy pot I gotta service...🤔
But my hunch was right
The sounds from the analogue board, the EQs the analogue "gain" the fact I can EQ on the board and Insert a compressor, is so much better when I Aux send them out to the Audient and then into my Daw
I really agree with Gregory Scott's take on that at KUSH, he encouraged me to get the 688 out.
And have the 688 being serviced finally heads cleaned demagnetized capstan dust taken apart a slider fixed.
Ideally I will run hybrid, via 688 tracks out via AUX into my ID14 into my DAW and likely use KUSH in the Daw, and that will be Kush Omegas on Group Busses for Drums Guitars Vocals.
I'll use a really mild Comp on the Master in the Daw.
I have yet to TAPE and send AUX outs into the DAW and not typically a Compressor or Reverb.
Anyway when it comes back I will use the Tape as well.
Finally I decided today the cheapest way for me is to go the Audient 800 later and I can Mix and Match Both and I can tout via the 688 DUAL MIDI mixer, the two Aux.
When it comes back I will try various options.
This is the kind of short answer...and I don't know if it is clear.
Should be soon I plan to film it.
But in summary I can go many different ways.
I'm thinking...about a Patch Bay , so I can chop and change at will to check sound options.
I better stop great video as usual and great to see you again.
thanks for sharing Harris! always experimenting with that "perfect" set up. We need a patch bay, too. That makes things much easier once it's set up, but setting it up can be annoying 😂
@@MadeOnTape So true...once I get the 688 and BBE back I'm starting shooting for a channel...a mish mash Guitar and Keyboard lessons Beat writing various methods, and hybrid recording set ups.
I think my post was maybe unclear I have so many options.
But most would "get it" who sub this channel.
I rout everything via the 688 midi screen.
Next time when it is back I'll set it up for aux sends out to the Audient or the Dual section.
It's a can of awesome worms. This was meant to be a sentence.
But yeah a Patch bay and I can instantly go any way I want in seconds, while having the Two spare headphones jacks in the 688.
That's my goal Mics Guitars Basses into 688 then to Daw!
Truly a brilliant video for me especially.
And the Volante is my "last Pedal" for my Pedal Board.
I have a Strymon Riverside fully hooked up to an EV5 expression pedal and a boost switch. I must stop typing, when it's done I'll send you some stuff or some video!!
great to see you are back and why!!
Man that Volante section just cost me some savings...I have to get it next month!!😀😕😥🤣😎
Welcome to the House of Fun :D
yesssss: Triangle Wave Studios
omg this will be awesome!!!!!! cant wait
Subbed. I'm hooked❤. Binge watching. This is my type of bag
Here for the tiny piano. I wish there were more of them for people who live in tiny apartments.
ooof NYC tiny apartments should come with a tiny piano
Yamaha EM-100! I recorded bass through a 150 one time and it was incredible.
it’s totally sick! i recorded drums through it on this track:

Great content! Love the channel and music …
thanks for the kind words and for watching!
Lovely setup bruvie
thank you! 2023 new studio. new tour. thanks for watching!
i will say this once, and perhaps only once. thank you algorithm
yo thanks for clicking 🙏✌️
I have a tascam 234 which has limited mixing capabilities, and wanted to get a mixer for it. I was in a guitar center, and they had a yamaha EM-80 mixer for 80 bucks. I bought it and the extended warranty plan for something like 15. In a year it had some issues and I was able to get it fixed under the plan. It's similar to the one you have, incredible spring reverb, highly dimensional mixes, if that makes sense. If you haven't tried yet, bypass the mixer on your portastudio and run it through the Yamaha mixer. People love to criticize GC, but I've found lots of great vintage gear there on the cheap.
Video idea: Using MIDI, sequencers, CV/Gate punching in, etc... to increase the number of instruments on a 4 track cassette without bouncing. Could be as simple as playing bass along with a drum machine on the same track, or a complicated midi arrangement.
very good video idea! I agree on used GC: i’ve picked up some good stuff. Heck, there was a time when i had no money, but i saw a 1960s Fender mustang bass for only $800…i regret not having money hahaha
Going into 2023, I'll have a pure analog setup. A Moog Matriarch and Eurorack modular system for synths and effects (delay from the Matriarch and chorus and spring reverb in the Eurorack), along with a collection of analog synths, Elektron Analog Rytm and Simmons SDSV for drums, Yamaha MT4X for tracking, and Tascam 122 for mastering. Since the 122 is a three-head machine, the replay head's output will be used to archive the newly recorded tape on a computer, but the sound will be analog from when it sounds to when it's laid down on the master, no ones or zeroes touching it anywhere in the process. Of course I have plenty of digital instruments / effects, but for my pure analog project, they'll be set aside.
that's awesome to hear! have fun and get inspired!
@@MadeOnTape Since spending time on the MT4X, I'm loving the analog workflow and don't want to go back to the DAW. I have found a Fostex A8 as the next step up from cassette, I'll be picking it up early in the new year, but even 7" reels of 1/4" tape are far more expensive than cassettes, so I'll save it for if I want fuller arrangements (stereo drum tracks and panned instruments).
Very cool!! This set up is awesome to us younger guys but when you show analog set ups to old school engineers they just think it's funny while they are all working on they're new top of the line digital equipment. Most don't want to go back to that old analog stuff.. too much work!
love the modern hybrid. Computer is vastly superior for editing, and i’m inspired by the real life gear.
thanks for watching!
I think one of the members of Depeche Mode, Alan Wilder recorded his album, Recoil on a Tascam 244
100% ! and this great article was posted recently: mixdownmag.com.au/features/the-10-best-recordings-on-the-iconic-tascam-portastudio/
@@MadeOnTape
Thanks friend.
I know where you have been……is that creepy? Hahabbabahahahah. Very cool Digs - always enjoying see you on the tube channel
lol thanks cuz! not creepy to me 😂
Just picked up a Yamaha EM 100 II at an estate sale for $49. I hope it works
ahh yesss please let me know if it does! I got so lucky on mine! Killer for drums!
I'll be in my bunk.
bunker down!
@@MadeOnTape Shiny. Let's be bass guys!
Would you consider running the audio thru Apollo 76s,2As etc before hitting the tape?
It's gotta convert at some point right
absolutely! and that’s one topic i’ve has on my list to make a video about for a long time, so it’s overdue!
Also.....include in the price for my set design girl to battery candle and christmas light out your studio
what was the weird instrument that u were bowing?
it’s called a waterphone! very cool and eerie sounds
You could be Jason Newsteds son! Lol
i’m a bass player too 😂
@@MadeOnTape lol yep caught that too!! its def a compliment👍
How much for a month of your services? Need to bring my band for a 18 min per side lp
hey there! thanks for watching and let’s take the conversation to email:
