It's my personal opinion, but to my experience, a teacher can only be good if he (or she) understands 100% what is taught. I generally believe Justin Sandercoe is such a musician. He better be glad I'm not living in the same street like he is, for I'd spend hours in his studio, I guess... ;-)
Hey man! My dad watched your videos 11 years ago, I was 6 by that time. Since he started learning from you, I loved guitar playing and he teached me what he learned from your videos. Somehow you made me have interess on guitar and I'm very thankful for you! Pedro Puertas - SP, Brazil
I just wanna say thanks man. I’ve been watching your tutorials since 2016 when I first learned ukulele. In 2017, I bought my first acoustic guitar and watched your videos to learn. A year later I bought my first electric guitar and I still watch your videos since then. You have honestly taught me a lot and I appreciate these videos. Thanks for everything you do🙏
I suffer from red light fever. I practice and practice and when I'm really happy and I played a solo through, as soon as I press the record button, it seems it's all gone and I stumble. I hate it.
This never gets old, but it comes to practice and practice. I've been playing for years before I started recording on tape. Then after a long pause, I started recording on computer. The difference is not that the quality is better than a 2-track deck (very slightly, but almost no noise), but the main difference is that in the old days I used to plug my amp into my deck, so I heard the same sound as when I practised. Now I often record via my headphones and a hardware amp without the speakers or an amp emulator. Since my headphones are so much better than any speaker I could ever afford, I can hear every mistake (ringing, pulling off too early, picking too heavy...) and it's frustrating sometimes. I guess we have to get used to this and then we get back to concentrate on our play, instead of the technical quality. That will definitely result in better play and eventually a better result (but it takes time, we know that, don't we?)
As Robert Burns famously said, "O wad some Pow'r the giftie gie us, To see oursels as others see us". Totally agree that recording yourself gives you a different perspective of your playing. I always remember as a language student listening back to my own voice in the language lab and learning a lot about my pronunciation. I currently use a looper to lay down some accompaniment but would like to add in drums, bass and keyboards to make a proper track. You've given me loads of great ideas here. Many thanks.
Totally agree with every word, Justin. I have been following Justin's lessons for nearly 4 years and can't support more strongly all he encouraged here. In particular, joining up with the Community, recording and sharing. It is incredibly supportive and encouraging and can close that gap for feedback that you may have when following on-line lessons.
Thanks for the video. GarageBand served me well as a DAW for many years. I've recently upgraded to LogicPro-X (around $300). Given its similarity to GarageBand, it was an easy transition. Guitar Rig 5 Pro was another good investment (around $300) & easy to use for obtaining an enormous range of amp models, plus free downloads are available for an increasing number of individual songs. Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro (80 ohm) enclosed headphones (around $250), a PreSonus AudioBox 22VSL interface (around $220), a pair of PreSonus E5 studio monitors (around $450) and a pair of ISO Acoustics monitor stands (around $150) complete my basic setup. I've recently bought an Xvive wireless system (about $150 & no noticeable latency) which has eliminated the need for cables cluttering my desk. This makes the total cost around $1800 at current prices excluding the Mac desktop computer along with a couple of microphones & mic stands, which I already had. I bought these items over the past five years (therefore around $300 per year) as I learned more about what I needed. All this gear is simple to use & easy to set up.
GarageBand is just amazing, and as an electric guitar player that has a Katana (or any amp with USB out), you can USB straight into GB, use either the effects of the Katana, or Garageband, or both! It is crazy how plug and play this is. Definitely come a long way from using my walkman cassette recorder...
I've only been playing about 5 weeks and I just propped my phone up and recorded myself playing. I found my chord changes are actually faster than i thought they were. Whilst playing I thought I was leaving long gaps between switches but I'm not :)
I use Audacity to record my guitar using my Digitech RP255 USB output to the computer. always against a clic-track made in audacity that I can mute after the recording is done
As a beginner at recording i use Garage Band on an I pad rather than a computer. It was necessary to buy an audio interface that had a power supply because the I pad does not supply enough power for the audio interface. It’s a starting point.
I must command your for the knowledge Justin but I was hoping for a demonstration on setting up equipment for guitar recording especially with the use of a phone.
Hi Justin. I saw this video at exactly the right time for me. I re-started playing in May this year, invested in a Harley Benton PRS copy with P90s to complement my acoustic, began trying to become comfortable with my own ambitions and limitations (rather than match Jimi note for note!); after all we're all happy windsurfing and mountain biking within our capabilities. I've just upgraded to a Katana 50 II (on your and Andertons' recommendations), plugged it into my laptop to explore its range of tones and realised I could start recording into Audacity. Just like nobody likes hearing how their own voice sounds, it's truly terrifying to hear your own rubbish technique and lack of musicality! You've (again) given me the inspiration to go to the next level. Many thanks and I'm bunging another tenner your way!
Just a quick tip, Audacity isn't for recording music. You can do so, but I'd recommend using Bandlab by Cakewalk, which is free and has a professional feel.
tbh i still use audacity when it's basic guitar layering or single recording. you can mix full solo performance on guitar just fine in audacity. issue arises when you want to do full arrangement with midi and other instruments. but yea, i think justin did very dumb comparing daw to audio editor like it's same league, and never even mentioned reaper being free alternative to garageband or logic
Tackling exactly the topics I need. I also think, besides recording your own songs, trying to cover other songs and trying to imitate the way the instruments sound in the track teaches a lot
Doing the thing I like to do seems to be the most difficult and complicated. Electronic music guys, all they really need is a phone and go. You don't even really need a keyboard. And those who just want to record one instrument, that's also pretty basic. But if you want a band with drums, vocals and recorded instruments alongside electronic, it's such a pain. I feel like I've already put the time into learning how to play and now I have to learn a whole new skill that I don't really want to learn except that I want to record myself and my music.
Weirdly, I’ve always found my practice bears fruit in sudden huge leaps that are super noticeable, as opposed to anything incremental. Not sure if I’m just doing it wrong or what, but one day I’ll just wake up and be able to do the thing I’ve struggled with the last couple of months. Super cool feeling though, pretty sure it’s what’s given me a lot of the positive feedback guitar can give back
"Buy the best you can afford and look after it" - I just love it 🙂 What's your opinion on clip-on microphones (not pickups) for acoustic/classical guitars (for example iRig Acoustic Stage)? Which one would you recommend? Other viewers' opinion also much appreciated.
Great video! When I first began recording guitar at home, I started off just using Audacity and a Blue Snowball Ice USB mic. Got some pretty decent recordings with that setup too up until I upgraded to proper mics and an interface.
Awesome information Justin. It’s also useful to add most recording packs with all the hardware included come with basic versions of software that should get most people started and recording for a few years at least. I still use a lite version of a DAW from 10 years ago.
Hey Justin! I know your channel isn’t very gear forward, but knowing you have an original Uni Vibe unit, can you do a shoot out between others available on the market? It’d be great to see with your production quality and play grade.
I purchased a basic Pro Tools software which at the time included and audio interface. Along with that purchased two really nice Yamaha M80 speakers and a Shure condenser microphone. I probably had $1500 into this setup. My computer was an Apple MAC. I bought this equipment over 15 years ago while I was still working full time and taking care of my family. Consequently I did very little with this equipment. When I did record with it sounded like something you could record on a cassette tape recorder. Which was very discouraging to say the least. And on top of that I have been paying the $100 a year ( till last year it went up to $200 a year) to get the updates. I know pretty sad or dumb I know. And yes it is not very intuitive to use. I really am not able to make decent recordings do to my lack of knowledge.If I was smarter I would have just used Garage Band.
I started recording myself on my phone. Now i use audacity. I record with a good condenser mic. Everything sounds nice but to buy all those things... Well it takes time. Nice advice though.xx
i have bandlab on windows 10 pro, google pixelbook and my LG Stylo 5 android phone and its FREE!! the best part is i can plug my electric guitar into my google pixelbook or my windows 10 pro using the usb guitar cable, the cabel was under $20 usd dollars on amazon and the closed back headphones are also under $50 usd dollars on amazon! cheap can be better to start with til you can work your way up or stay with what you have!! also it has a built in guitar tuner!!
What a great point being an x drummer back in our day we used tape to tape back then in the 70s recording your self as great benefits listening to your self was that full to early was your timing right bass drum with bass guitar it as huge benefits to your playing first listen to myself playing to diamonds jet Harris and tony muin think that's how you spell it lol but there no better way to learn in my book
hey kind man! selam! could you show us how to play "Birds - İmagine dragons" on guitar, plz. ive been searching it far too long, still havent found it yet. my current target is to learn that song anyway. i think it will be easy for pro guitarist as you to show 3/4 chords in different places. thx in advance)))
Spot on Justin! It is nice to discover that I have been doing it right for a year or so. I love my Boss BR-800. Not a whole lot of money but loads of features, though it is pretty old technology now. There must be loads of digital recording gadgets that do the same sort of thing. Worth saying, if you use a DAW (I don't bother though), unless you get a digital recording gadget you can only record with a microphone, so you would need an amplifier. The DAW's I have tried (Audacity, Garage Band, Ardour, but not LMMS) can record via USB from the BR-800 (or any other USB enabled gadget). It is quite handy to be able to record without waking the neighbours. :-)
Excellent talk, as always. Since Windows computers outnumber Apple computers by about 10 to 1 or more, a brief mention of Band in a Box might have been appropriate...?
Great tips Justin, I have only recorded myself with my Cell Phone way back when a beginner, now more advanced I still record things I do and the songs I have written with my Cell..But would like to download some Jam tracks. But you are right , I have gone down the track in many recording studios when I was a semi-pro drummer in the 60's with bands that were recording songs, it's very different..so now a guitarist I can imagine the record Red button would be daunting even using my Looper..all good got to do it like you say. Stay safe- Michael Sydney Australia
If you have a good amp, why not to record it with the microphone instead of plugging your guitar directly to audio interface etc. I am trying record my electric guitar exactly like it sounds from my tube amp. Thank you for informative video.
You can, of course place a microphone in front of your amp. You need a good microphone (Shure SM57 is a popular choice) and a stand. They cost money and this video is geared towards budget recording techniques. Cheers 😊 | Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide & Approved Teacher
Hi Justin thanks for all the videos Audacity is great but doesn't handle latency automatically Reaper on the other hand does and is much more fully featured, it's still easy to learn the basics, Its free for 60days then a nag screen The full licence for as many computers as you want to use it on and free upgrades to is $60 thats the best money you can ever spend manuals free online or spiral bound version from Lulu
Perfect timing, staying at home to avoid Covid, I’ve spent the summer exploring home recording. Working a few simple cord patterns into actual songs gave me a real sense of accomplishment (and little souvenirs of the summer). DIY is way cool 😎
So my setup really low tech. Essentially a microphone plugged into the mic jack on the computer & a freeware recording program called Krystal. I had a 6 channel mixer to plug into it, but it stopped working. My finished product sounds a bit like a mixed audio cassette tape with a little background fuzz, but it works for my totally nonprofessional application. I might upgrade one day if get any good at what I'm doing & I have money to spend on it. David G.
ah yes, the pink mic-in. i actually love toan of it, i like to call this input a natural lo-fi guitar sound, especially nice sounding with sound hole mics that you attach inside guitar, so the "nonprofessional" use can be argued against popularity of this genre and your use of it
Thanks, 100th School. So it is a thing. I thought I was just being cheap. 😄 I'm from the cassette era, so their can be a bit of nostalgia in it. I actually have a couple of audio tapes some where when I was starting out. I turned the tape recorder & recorded myself. Much more fuzz in those.

At a very basic level a looper pedal can be a way to start recording as well.

Try recording as sessions multiple times than just cut them

Great video Justin, thank you for sharing your knowledge!!! The timing was perfect as I am starting to dabble with recording.

Multi-tracking, effects, it's really easy to use and it's free! 👍
You make the best videos for sure Justin have learned a lot many thanks .

Man!! Justin is just the best all around. It's been years I've been learning and been inspired by this guy... More recording tips please 🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸🎸
Justin is the reason I can play guitar. 2008 to 2020 and into the future.
Good pointers about not buying expensive(more complicated) things in the beginning.
I use Audacity to record my guitar using my Digitech RP255 USB output to the computer. always against a clic-track made in audacity that I can mute after the recording is done
Great info Justin. I've set my whole rig up to always record myself. It's immensely helpful, and really enforces playing correctly.

Audacity was originally written for Linux. Cakewalk, Reaper and so on aren't available on Linux so they're not alternatives there.

Garage Band is fantastic I'll look into Logic Pro X, and bluetooth latency is a problem for robotics as well.
Have you seen the price of apple computers compared to similarly spec'd PCs? Garage band is not free. At least it helps justify the premium.
Bedankt
Thanks for the thanks 😊
Where on Justin's site, will I find the recommendations, Justin talk about in this Recording video?
wow i can use that thank you ❤️
Very good i love it.
For Linux there is Ardour Justin!
LMMS too!
Zoom Q8HD could be an option
Hi Justin thanks for all the videos Audacity is great but doesn't handle latency automatically
Reaper on the other hand does and is much more fully featured, it's still easy to learn the basics,
Its free for 60days then a nag screen
The full licence for as many computers as you want to use it on and free upgrades to is $60 thats the best money you can ever spend manuals free online or spiral bound version from Lulu

My finished product sounds a bit like a mixed audio cassette tape with a little background fuzz, but it works for my totally nonprofessional application. I might upgrade one day if get any good at what I'm doing & I have money to spend on it.

ah yes, the pink mic-in. i actually love toan of it, i like to call this input a natural lo-fi guitar sound, especially nice sounding with sound hole mics that you attach inside guitar, so the "nonprofessional" use can be argued against popularity of this genre and your use of it
Thanks, 100th School.
So it is a thing. I thought I was just being cheap. 😄
I'm from the cassette era, so their can be a bit of nostalgia in it. I actually have a couple of audio tapes some where when I was starting out. I turned the tape recorder & recorded myself. Much more fuzz in those.
I have Garage Band but I haven't got a car to park it in.
Audacity is nice and simple but it doesn't do many of the things others DAWs do. It does recording. So no virtual instruments. No drums.
