Quantity over quality. No joke. You've read the studies i'm sure. Well in case you don't know, studies have show that if you just focus on output, you will create higher quality. Focusing on creating higher quality does not necessarily create higher quality. Make sense? So more is more. For that reason, it makes sense to just write a ton and put out a ton of stuff and don't worry if it's perfect.

This song has a very special guest singer. She has no idea who led zeppelin is, but she likes music. She's heard of music. She's heard of rock music. And she knows lord of the rings. So there you go.

Basically a perfect lyrical replicant of Led Zeppelin. Also I think the NBA should use this song for marketing next season LOL. Love a good Barn Video ❤
haaha
Man, your channel is so entertaining. And you get a hell of a fucking good sound out of your stuff. Admirable my friend. Keep on doing it, you're good at it.
Thank you bruno!
A full album of this is necessary
I love it!
Mama got skills. Well done
Thanks so much!
Came out really good. Those drums 🥁 are popping
Thanks, Big Grime!
the only channel which makes videos with a similar setup to mine, actually pretty dope videos! thanks travis:)
you must have one cool set up! thank you
I love you're doing everything out of the box-I love that you're using tape: but maaaaannn you need a patchbay for your Tascam
whoooo
I had one of my own songs banned on Instagram because a major label claimed (randomly I believe) that it was theirs. This could potentially claim all my current earnings (which is a whole dollar yay) and future earnings on my music. Luckily with Distrokid you get an actual record label which was enough to prove to Instagram that it was in fact my music and got the ban lifted. Wouldn't know how to fix it hadn't it been for Distrokid.
Very cool to hear, Tim!
It’s just sad, because if you don’t want to earn money on your music and don’t want a label you always risk something like this
@@woosix7735 yeah, obviously to me it doesn't make much difference, but if you're seriously trying to make a living in music getting banned by major labels is a serious threat so there's no way around having a label. I would still suggest Distrokid because it's really so easy, also changing your logo or adding lyrics to the various platforms takes no effort, and like said in the video 100% of your earnings. They pay out at 2 dollars and up so for me it's going to still take a while before I'll be able to buy my first coffee off of my music.
@@TimOost yeah but you have to pay for it, I am doing music for fun only
@@woosix7735 I understand, perhaps you already know this but all the major streaming platforms will only accept uploaded music from record labels. So unless you're willing to set that paperwork up yourself (I wouldn't know how to be honoust) you'll need a service like Distrokid to get your music out there. Otherwise you're basically limited to TH-cam when you add a video to your songs. Distrokid costs like a pack of string per year so to me that was ok because it is a lot of fun to be able to share a Spotify link with your friends!
That´s it. Everybody can loop in their daws but this tape thing really shows who loves to play ;)
good point, Tim!
love it man nice video really liked the music🔥
Thanks 🔥
The Tascam board sounds pretty rad. You dig it? I'm pondering adding one to my studio for all my synths.
Yeah I like these old tascam things!
Amazing drum sound
Thanks so much!
Oh also, I was wondering if you could try using the Tascam m-30 as a mixer for the portastudio to see how using an outboard mixer would work with it
maybe one of these days ya!
Yup!
whoooo
I liked the guitar riff. Drums sound crunchy in a cool way.
cool I'm glad you like it , Rook!
A casual rule in my life is that I hear about something from multiple people over 5 times within a single month, I need to either see it (if it's a movie) or buy it, or rent it, or something... Tascam has surpassed that about 500 times in the past few weeks..
It's a sign ☢️
Hey Travis, I have a question about your signal chain:
How do you use your 388 in your signal flow with your interface? Do you have stereo out on your 388 that you plug into the interface and just mixdown the whole mix on the 388, or do you record each track individually one at a time to the computer? Asking because I have a cassette machine and I want to record tracks individually for mixing on the computer, but I have read about timing issues with the tape having different speeds every time you record.
Great content!
Thanks
Hi Dalton! great question.
I normally just do a stereo bounce out of the master of my 388. BUT if you have an interface that can accept 8 channels, then you can go PGM out and even retain the eq of your 388 and have the individual tracks in the box for extra mixing. that's right you cannot just send out tracks asynchronously from your machine into the computer cause they will be all out of sync. hope that helps
additionally, you need a tape machine that has individual track outputs in order to get individual tracks to sync up in the box
@@travisraab Yes that does help! Thanks for the detailed response :)
This is very good.
Better than Zeppelin! Thanks Doc
Your snare sounds so PHAT and tight, how do you tune yours? Also what snare is it? I wanna tune mine up kinda where yours sits
I also just hate tuning drums haha seems it’s very tedious but maybe I’m just lazy haha
@@vask8ers1 thanks man! This is just a Ludwig supraphonic that was tuned regular like 8 years ago and hasn't been tuned up since. So it's just super loose and deep. There is also a pretty wide looking snare on the bottom. I have another video coming next week where I tune another snare as tight as possible and I think it sounds really neato
Awesome video
hELL yEAH!!!! Let's hear protools and it's plugins top that!!!!!
not possible those friggin LOSERS
I get a real Lenny Kravitz vibe from it, especially the chorus. Great work and love all your vids :)
Thanks Sam !
To be authentic Led Zeppelin lyrics, I suggest noting how the ring did you wrong by being a lyin', cheatin', drinkin', barrelhouse all night, spending all yer hard earned money type of accessory.
Good point! It would be even more authenticly led zeppelin if we just stole some people's music and passed it off as our own. Greta van fleet knows that
@@travisraab Selling your soul to the devil for guaranteed stardom is also advised. I hope you did that before the pressing "record".
@@bonemasterj no I farm these all out on fivrr for $5 to guys in Staten island trying to build up their positive reviews
@@travisraab Oh, so basically the exact opposite; you're doing God's work.
Do they put out music that you would record, mix and master at home. Or do you need to have it professionally mastered ?
I think you could put out anything you like? Good question!
PS you can master your stuff for free online..and iZotope makes great mix and mastering tools that aren't too expensive
@@travisraab thanks 🙂
10/10 vocals
yeah she nailed it
Yo Travis, another unrelated question, but how on earth do you get entirely buzz/noise-free amp recordings? There is never not some kind of hum from my amp and I can’t ever get a good recording
are you using single coil pickups?
@@travisraab yes, and I get some buzz from that but even when I’ve got my volume all the way down, the amp still has a constant hiss
@@djwiggles2835 what happens when you unplug your guitar? Sounds like the power in your place is bad, though. Try a different outlet first.
@@travisraab same old hiss when the guitar is unplugged. I’ll keep trying, and thanks for the input
@@djwiggles2835 sounds like it's your power. You can try a ground lifter and flip it, but I hear that's dangerous. I used to do it though
lmao!!! Great song!! Love the lyrics 😂😂
Thanks ignorance is bliss I guess , Marco!
It gives some tenacious D vibes
i wonder if this talented singer has ever heard of them either!
my fave scene in Wayne's World and yer bass line is tasty
what a compliment from an excellent bass player!
Top tier entertainment 🔥
Hey Ander! Thanks
🤔 Tell the truth… That’s you on the vocals right??? Good stuff. 👍🏾✌🏾✊🏾
I wish
She definitely channeled some Jack Black on that! So funny, love it...
Thanks David! She must be a genius or something
Ok, i didn’t have to play vinyls backwards to notice that if this woman who knows nothing about led Zeppelin follows your advice and use today’s sponsor service we will be able to find her.
Possibly!
Sexy voice. Always keen on a little strategic cussing. Will you finish it off and post it for download?
Wait it's not finished? 😂
What does Led Zeppelin sound like????? I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
Kids today
Guess What?
Wow I am horrified already. What?
@@travisraab I'm the ring... Fuck off, coz you'll never find me
(sorry, rad song!)
@@SPOD_ZONE thanks !
What does Led Zepplin sound like..... 🤦🏽♂
🙏
This dude is way to obsessive about his drum sounds
😂
