    wow some awesome gear - final results (mixes) are the most important factor these days with minimal gear computer , interface , monitors , and plugins and some skill you can make incredible recording's radio ready for the price of less than one those compressors Just Saying

      @steveweilhart2359 Thanks for watching and your comment! I completely agree!! The final result is what it is all about and I agree there are many ways to get there. Everyone has their preferred way to work and by no means is 100% in the box a bad way to go. Technology has really given us all so many options. I will add most serious producers do have some outboard gear though. It is pretty common.

    Love the tour - thanks! Strange question - do you keep a bench somewhere for working on your guitars and gear? I finally had to make a corner with a table and some storage to have a ready-set place to work on my gear when needed.

    • @ChrisJustice
      @ChrisJustice  7 місяців тому +1

      @LaMarrBrewster I usually just change strings using the coffee table in the room while sitting on the couch. All intonation adjustments and such are always with me having the guitar on my lap in playing position. If I need to do something drastic I have a nice clean garage workbench with soldering iron and such.

      @vcrcnk666 Thanks! True the room does look bigger on camera. It is 15 ft wide, 22ft long and 10ft high in the middle. I sometimes pull the pedalboard out to the middle but most of the time I am moving so fast I just turn and play where it is if I am using any expression pedals or doing any switching.

    One more question for you, Chris. I soured on hardware when I had to send my 1176 to Universal Audio in San Fransisco to get the OUTPUT knob replaced. It cost me $400 (shipping + repair.) Then I was forced to sell it (cuz I need the money) and I had a VERY difficult time finding a buyer. It was a recent model and in excellent condition. I ended up selling it for $1300 and I had $2200 in it. Now I've sworn off new hardware and am going 100% plugins for mixing. Question: how much of a difference do you think it would make if you HAD to use ALL plugins for mixing (not tracking) versus all your hardware?

    • @ChrisJustice
      @ChrisJustice  7 місяців тому +1

      Honestly that is hard question to answer because I think a lot has to do with the process of mixing. Every mix decision and recording decision leads to the end result. I feel there is a difference between hardware and software still but they are all tools. The harmonic coloration from hardware is still hard to beat in my opinion BUT it is not the required by any means. What I search for is the small percentage to keep me competitive and or give me an edge over everyone 100% in the box. I certainly have worked all in the box and had great results.
      I think the biggest difference in using hardware on the way in is the positive effect it has on a performance. No latency and a vibe and feeling that helps especially with vocals and acoustic instruments.
      The mix buss chain is a game changer imo. It is quicker and sounds better to me still to this day than an all plugin mix buss chain. Better separation and wider more pleasing mixes to my ears. It makes me commit as well and that is part of the process. Again my personal opinion.

    Chris, Did you have to do anything special with your breakers and or electric in your studio to power all that gear?

    • @ChrisJustice
      @ChrisJustice  6 місяців тому

      @braxal6983 It is a normal 20 amp home circuit. I am normally pulling between 7-10 amps total with the desk, computer, outboard gear and 2 guitar amps on. What I did is buy three power conditioners that have more than just basic filtering. Black Lion PG-2's and a PG-1. All of the recording equipment, keyboards and guitar amps run to those. They also have over voltage protection, ground fault, etc. in addition to the filtering. I might add the new PG-2R because Nashville power is commonly up in the 125-128 range. 😬

    That was a ton of fun. Question: Do you ever get annoyed with the live amp volume in the same room (control room, sort of) when you're tracking? I've tried it that way many times but just hated hearing my amp louder than my studio monitors. I attempted to build an iso cab and learned the hard lesson that sound is bitch to control LOL. So still modifying my iso cab. But, you're ok the amp sound while your monitoring, too?

    • @ChrisJustice
      @ChrisJustice  7 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for watching! Yeah, for the most part I play a lot of guitar when I’m not recording so for me, I prefer to have the amps in the room and deal with the volume. That said, I don’t crank the amp super loud when I’m recording so I’m usually good to just put on headphones and the roar of the amps is not enough to affect anything. Maybe I can do a video on that somehow?
