      Nice and honest explanation of your feelings around music production and the love of it. Awesome studio too. I'm sure myself and others would love to see you breakdown the production process in more detail, maybe a video showing your methods from having an initial jamming idea to completing a finished track that's ready for mastering. Btw, as a 50yo who was at UK raves in the early 90s, I really appreciate your use of the sounds from that era. Keep it up guys! 👍

      Q: when it comes to jamming on and recording drums eg 909 or jomox, do you record fairly clean and then saturate and post -process later OR do you process (eq, saturate) drum tracks as much as as possible before hitting the sound card / converters? Cheers! Love the most recent album btw, so ace!

    The one thing I am curious about is how all of the outputs are connected. Is everything plugged in at once or do the cables need to be switched out or how does it work.
    I'm kinda new to a full hardware gear only setup (currently having set up MPC1000, TR-09, TB-03 and Microkorg) and trying to incorporate a hardware compressor is giving me a few headscratches and cuts on my hands having to go behind the desk to replug things and keep track where the spaghetti cables are going.
    I see there's a patch bay, is that what would be beneficial in my case? Any recommendations? Open to hear ideas :D

    • @FJAAKBERLIN
      @FJAAKBERLIN 2 місяці тому +1

      Everything is connected through the patchbay. A TT patchbay offers higher quality and is built more robustly, but a well-made jack patchbay can also perform well. Avoid cheap patchbays, as they may compromise sound clarity.

    Hey FJAAK, excited to see you in Boston on Sunday!
    I've been performing livesets for many years, playing festivals, winning awards, going on tour... etc. I feel like my music career isn't going anywhere. I'm performing 2-5 times per month in the area and basically feel like I'm hitting a wall.
    Do you think staying in the USA is a bad idea for someone like me? I'm thinking of moving the NYC area because...well...it's NYC! I don't see this going anywhere otherwise, but you guys are much more well-travelled than I am.

      Hardware is less about the sound than how you interact with the machine in the moment. Plugins have sounded great for years, midi controllers just don’t offer the same level of muscle memory that a good hardware UI offers.
