Trying to play music again and I want to video record myself, i needed this and so lost i have given up on naking music almost but im scared of dying without ever putting myself out there
Thanks for this amazing journey sharing tips for recording music. I have learnt a lot and now i know where to start from to make a recording studio. Please advise me on what is required in a live recording studio set up. One Love from UGANDA.
Bro thank you so much for this video! I got thrown in the deep end so I know more about working with a DAW and recording, but I have no idea how best to set up everything. This helps me get a good and detailed idea of what I need to go for
@@AudioUniversity Can u have a second i have alll the equipment i just purchased for my home studio but i cant get a recording session in i need your help asap plz!!!
Based on previous comment, I’m very much the exception to your audience. Absolute neophyte to recording although I have now purchased all of the components listed, most, coincidentally, the exact same brand. Very, very much enjoyed this video and if it’s in the context of your focus, would appreciate learning how to interface the Akai keyboard controller to the DAW. I found the Akai instructions (and customer support) severely lacking. Thanks for you insight and channel. Great info!!
Hi Kyle. First of all, congrats with more than 221k subscribers! Your videos are always a pleasure to watch. Whether I already know about specific topics or just want to learn something extra. I also watch the videos to support you, Kyle. If you ask me, anyone in this business deserves support from each other, regardless what position a musician is at a specific moment in time. Keep up making awesome videos. Stay safe and healthy! 😊
@@AudioUniversity Thank you for your fast reply, Kyle! Happy to support you. And yes, I’m watching your videos for a long time. Your channel just started out on TH-cam. Have great day!
Going to get my small recording studio set up today and I am so excited. This video helped so much, and I appreciate the no-nonsense approach. Thank you!
I am new to all this making videos and training. If I am going to do it I have to keep up with technology. Thanks for making this easier to understand.
Mixer-interfaces are worth consideration! Like the Flow8 and the Tascam Model 12 (and 16 and 24) which can interface all channels at once (not just two like many similar mixers) are also very worth considering! He's got a Model 12 on his desk there. The Flow8 definitely has the best value though
Thanks, Sunbird Falls Music! I agree - if you want something that helps tie various audio sources and destinations together AND acts as an audio interface, a USB mixer like my Model 12 is a good choice.
I think it’s important to note that your monitors are rear ported and should be on a slant because you’re bouncing said wave off the wall back in to your own face. The AX7 and their higher (staple) models are front ported so it wouldn’t matter. Slanted monitor pads and some acoustic paneling or a sound blanket would be huge. Also, an SM57 with a tube preamp arguably sounds better than a $200 akg condenser with focusrite “preamps”. You’re really buying a sound card with an interface and not preamps. You’re also showcasing DT770s which last time I bought were $230 bucks. For a $100 the Sennheiser HD280s are a steal and workhorses but Sony MDR7506 I think have a better all around sound with warmer bass, both of which beat out equivalent AKG headphones. The DT770s are good for mixing, master, and low level recording like vocals or acoustic. They aren’t isolating enough for rock drums or loud electric guitar. The HD280s are best for loud drums and guitar, the best for all trades for 100. Sony would be better for beat making and production. The DT770s are when you already have some cans. I’m saying this because you’re showing $250 headphones but an $80 keyboard. I’d say skip the MPK mini and just buy a used MPK 249 as everything about it is better including the velocity which will save you a lot of time in post. Also the DT770s NEED a headphone preamp and the Scarlett gives it just enough to work but plugging them in your laptop or phone is damaging to the speakers in the headphones as the preamp it’s powerful enough and using an under powering preamp is more damaging then an over powered preamp at lower volume
Awesome information. My intentions are to build my own studio and produce my final recording for music. I don't know anything about building a studio , I'm a retired international recording artist and want to put out my music. I have no producer so I have to pay for it myself. Thanks for the information. I sing but also play most instrumenst and write my music.
Kia Ora Kyle & all those that read and reply to comments. First time studio setup here. Trying to pick the best single mic for bass, amp cabs (bass and guitar), acoustic instruments and haha possibly singing. What are your thoughts about the Shure SM7B ? I know that you recommended the two and or one or the other. Thoughts?? Bye for now.
I think the SM7B would work well for everything you’ve listed, except acoustic guitar. I’d lean more toward a more sensitive microphone for acoustic instruments.
Another fantastic video as always man. One counterpoint I'd like to make however on your saying "you can't go wrong with either microphone option", in certain circumstances I might disagree. In the case where one could afford either or even in the case where someone could afford a higher quality condenser, I think it's important to consider the recording environment one has available to them. If someone only has access to a space with uncontrollable noise conditions (ie unfinished basement with ac/furnace/noisy pipes, apartment by busy street etc), and they're not able to compensate with proper treatment/isolation, then I think in any budgetary case that person would always be far better off going with a quality dynamic mic. Personally when I'm toying with a casual personal project at home, especially during winter when the furnace is blasting through the vents, I'll go with a 58 or 7b every time and get a much better sound than if I had reached for any objectively "nicer" LD condenser. That aside, in a room where acoustics are adequate then I'd definitely agree that you couldn't go wrong with either mic type!
Thanks for leaving this comment, Kai! Going with a tighter polar pattern mic like the Shure SM57 could definitely help in those situations. Great point.
Thanks for atop notch production. It would be great if more content creators were as competent and helpful, thank you so much. Keep on doing what you're doing. Well done!
Just remember the most important thing in your studio is you. Writing > Performance > Gear choice > Recording > Mix > Master > Song If any of those are lacking, the rest following it will be garbage, and it all starts with you
A lil late but this honestly helped me to get an idea of what to get/use I don’t rap or produce music but I got into by my homies that do rap so now I kud start producing n stuff 💪🏆
I like these intro to recording videos. Thank you! Also, what are your thoughts on that mpk mini? I'm learning about them but the sweetwater reviews almost convinced me to avoid that one.
For basic stuff, it’s fine. The feel of the keys isn’t great, especially if you’re used to a piano. The drum pads feel ok, but definitely not the best out there. I think you get a lot for the money, but you can’t expect to get what you could if you spend more…
I purchased one six months ago and have mixed feelings. First and foremost the available Akai information (printed and/or online) is minimal and seems to assume you are an expert, not a beginner. There is nothing I could find explaining the actual dials and buttons and how to interface with various DAW. sent their customer service contact email several questions and it literally took months to get a reply and the response was…well…worthless. If you have experience with controllers, it’s a nice inexpensive unit. If not, stay away.
I need to set up a PA system that can incorporate inputs from 2 wireless microphones, additional 3 microphones lined or wireless, a karaoke machine, laptop audio playing, and audio output to 2 speakers, audio output back to laptop for recording, plus video output to a TV (for the karaoke part). Any suggestion on what this system should look like?
Sir, I am beginning. I want to record my written poetry professionally. In which my line will go in high tone and will also come in low tone. Tell me such mic and audio interface. So that I can record and mix later. But my room is not sound proof. My total budget is $300. A shopkeeper told me that you cannot do recording with dynamic mic. Please tell me what should I do. Which mic and audio interface should I buy? After buying which I do not regret.
For an audient id4 interface,which headphones do you reccomend? AudioTechnica ath-m50x or Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 250ohm? Or DT770 Pro 80ohm? All your videos are great,i love the way you explain, you have teaching skills man,besides your tech skills and music background. Now i understand what the sound panels are,what mixers are for and what is the difference between them and audio interfaces...many many things learned from you. Thank you 4 sharing all this intel. Information is power! I've gathered so much lately beeing also an anxious type im afraid with all this focus not to exceed the tolerance thresholds... Kat Bucharest Romania
I have most of this stuff, focusrite, powered speakers, condenser mic and an sm57,58 plus a ZED-10FX analog usb mixer, using an older version of pro tools. I have a library of about 2,000 karaoke songs and nice karaoke/software program. What I haven't been able to figure out, is how to get the music into the pro tools program and then sing into another track while the music plays. I need to listen to the music to sing but can't seem to separate then ands do a mix down. This is just for singing, I have no ther instruments. Just beyond my comprehension Thank you for an informative video!
I am getting ready to set up a tiny studio. I am only going to be recording my guitar/vocal as a base, then adding individual tracks of violin, viola, cello, harmonica and maybe an additional vocal. Is the 2i2 and Audacity software a good match for me? Cost is biggest factor, followed by the fact that i am a very basic musician and im doing this more for the fun of it than for serious quality. Thanks!!
do not bother with monitors or acoustic treatment - just get slate vsx instead. mix any time any place anywhere on headphones - it sounds great and your mixes will too!
Hello I really appreciate your video. I am à singer and I don’t know how to play instruments. Can I use this with to sing instrumentals already done? I would appreciate to get your thoughts on this please. Thanks
Yes. An audio interface can be used to record singing also. You will need a microphone and an audio interface. Alternatively, you can use a USB microphone.
Is there some sort of software that will really work on a vocal? Say that the person is a little older and their voice has that little quiver in it is something that will smooth that out? I’d like to fatten it up and make it stronger thicker that kind of thing please let me know. You seem to know everything. Thank you so so much.
I don’t have a video tutorial about the Apollo, but Universal Audio has some great resources! Check out these videos: www.uaudio.com/blog/console-getting-started/
For instruments recorded together, I recommend a mixing table before the usb sound device. I prefer my computer not to be connected to internet and using Air, Wifi, Bluetooth. As I use old material softwares older are not usable in later versions Of Apple nor Windows systems. So for a beginner you better buy all new at the same time, hardwares as softwares, or All older being compatible together. That's makes me having three sound hardwares, four computers, from windows 95, to Win Seven and two Apple with two incompatibles systems with recent softwares. I have keyboards from the eighties, as recent midi 88 heavy piano keys, and two as not having midi or memory inside. '' the sound must go on '' I'm not interested in technical aspects, but the sounds I can play, and some of them can be find only on some particular synths, or conceptual virtual instruments. In that case so my installation is more delicate, separate two amps, two mixing tables, effects racks, some recording softwares, different in win and apple, and more virtual instruments opened at the same time on different computers, screens and keyboards. In future I will buy some synths by Berhinger, wich are very good remakes of legendar synths and mostly in rack's size so more tiny and easy to use. I have some microphones, one is a dynamic, the others are large membrane one in USB, useful for direct connection to computers. My Headphones and loudspeakers are old, but I have the choice between two pairs of LP, and three Head phones. I support only those who cover the ears, so i've an other chinese one I prefer to them. Around the world most people listen music in mp3 with their smartphone!...they as not have good stereophony , so sometimes, we are the own listening our music in good conditions. Sad!
I haven't invested in studio monitors and continue to use my Bluetooth speakers 2.1 for the sound. Any reason I should give up a good speakers for specialized studio monitors?
It may add a very small amount of latency, but likely an imperceptible amount. You could also use a USB-C to USB-C cable directly to the computer if you find it limiting.
Thanks for the info - I’m just in the beginning process of getting all of my gear and starting out. Could I ask how you connect your akai mpk to your MacBook Pro? I’ve got an akai mpk249 and I can’t get it to connect to my MacBook Pro - I can get it to connect to my iMac 5K but I’ve tried a number of ways and can’t get it to connect at all to my macbook
Bro I appreciate your work....And iam glad to see your videos..💗🤩 ..I am beginner film maker ... And I want to know how to record ADR and how to edit ... cause iam bad at sound designing 🥲 can you plzz help me
Hi. Thank you for the video and the list. I am looking into opening a small professional recording studio ( 2 studio). Can I still use these same items for that concept or is this more so "home based" . As a new business owner, I'm looking to invest in good products and upgrade my equipment as I grow my business.

I think it’s important to note that your monitors are rear ported and should be on a slant because you’re bouncing said wave off the wall back in to your own face. The AX7 and their higher (staple) models are front ported so it wouldn’t matter. Slanted monitor pads and some acoustic paneling or a sound blanket would be huge. Also, an SM57 with a tube preamp arguably sounds better than a $200 akg condenser with focusrite “preamps”. You’re really buying a sound card with an interface and not preamps. You’re also showcasing DT770s which last time I bought were $230 bucks.

Thanks for watching and sharing your perspective on this!

I'm surprised you don't include a mixer in your recommendations.
I haven't invested in studio monitors and continue to use my Bluetooth speakers 2.1 for the sound. Any reason I should give up a good speakers for specialized studio monitors?
Good man Kyle
Well done
I love your videos, they are very informative.👍
Glad you like them!
Just been wondering, where do these guys get these many mics, are they cheap in western countries?
This man is a genius💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Can you make a video how you mix the vocal with the beat, so it gets the same "tone" and sound professional?
Surely add your audio interface to a USB hub will add extra latency?
It may add a very small amount of latency, but likely an imperceptible amount. You could also use a USB-C to USB-C cable directly to the computer if you find it limiting.
Don't pass over Reaper. Completely free until you start commercial work. Great vid. Thnx.
This is a very accurate video. Great for building a home studio
How about the UR22C interface?
Fantastic stuff. Does the same apply to voice acting as well?
Thanks for the info - I’m just in the beginning process of getting all of my gear and starting out. Could I ask how you connect your akai mpk to your MacBook Pro? I’ve got an akai mpk249 and I can’t get it to connect to my MacBook Pro - I can get it to connect to my iMac 5K but I’ve tried a number of ways and can’t get it to connect at all to my macbook
Very informative
very helpful
Bro I appreciate your work....And iam glad to see your videos..💗🤩 ..I am beginner film maker ... And I want to know how to record ADR and how to edit ... cause iam bad at sound designing 🥲 can you plzz help me
What was the black box u connected ur interface too?
That’s just a USB hub.
hello my friend, is it not easier to use hardware gear instead of PC as the software may not be easy to use as the gear, what do you think?
What would you rate a pair of Yamaha MSP10's at for monitoring?
I haven’t used them, so I can’t really say. As long as you’re familiar with how they sound, they will be a good tool!
Thanks a bunch.
this is what a structured explanition. Thanks's Kyle
Glad you enjoyed it, Dewa. Thanks for watching!

Hi. Thank you for the video and the list. I am looking into opening a small professional recording studio ( 2 studio). Can I still use these same items for that concept or is this more so "home based" . As a new business owner, I'm looking to invest in good products and upgrade my equipment as I grow my business.
Thank you
