The wall of gear

While I learn and enjoy virtually all the vidz on Puremix, there is no better combo than Scheps and Fab. They are the absolute Batman and Robin of audio knowledge and creativity. Always inspired by watching either of these two, but together.... Wow!

Where can I buy this wallpaper? ;-)

This video is really grate for my unsecurity, having that one big question: if i need better gear to sound better?... so my mind kind of rests a little more. I am guessing that time will eventually teach my ears how to master better productions. good job guys.

I love what AS said. "Know that if that mix is not great to you, that you aren't done." (I think I quoted that right) Simple. If you don't love it, you're not done.

fantastic!

I'm a firm believer in a minimal hybrid setup. More or less ITB but with a few tasty analog pieces for flavor on either stems or the 2 bus. I also love the sound of analog summing, which lends itself to fit right in to the hybrid setup. Andrew has some great tricks up his sleeve. It doesn't hurt that he basically has a PHD in everything that is audio and sonic character. Fab is no slouch himself...such a great ear!

@GTBannah: I can't speak for Andrew but for me what shapes the mixes the most, meaning what influences the transition between 'in my head' to 'that's the mix' are the room I am in, then the speakers/headphones and then the monitor section. Then the processing.

I love andrew scheps man... His philosophy of minimal mixing has shaped me more than anyone. Please please please bring andrew back to do more mixes!

Did no one else notice his OTB mix sounds so much better and more inspired than the ITB mix ?

So true. Good preamps, good microphones and good technique at tracking is the first and foremost thing in the mixing process. Then, be analog or digital (or both), your vision, skills and dexterity make the difference. Another amazing video set. Thank you!!!

PureMix needs a new video server.

Interesting conversation! "It's not about the gear, it's what's in your head." Would/wouldn't you say, that the gear helps you get what you hear?

My subscription has expired but I let it only because I'm working 65 hour weeks now and don't have any more time to think about stuff. Will be back later when life becomes more sane.

Freed me up in so many ways!
