None of us imagined this would be the last video we’d see. RIP Steve Albini, you were just as influential as the artists you recorded. My condolences to everyone at Electrical Audio.
@@David.C.Velasquez Aint it the way? I've been a fan since the 90s but yeah, I've had a few people I've discovered when it was too late. Its still a punch in the gut innit?
My god... I think we all know why we're here today Steve, if you can somehow read this from the great beyond, know that I and so many other engineers, asipring and professional, looked up to you more than words can say. You were way too young to go but the work you did while you were here was incredible and so valuable to the underground music scene. Thank you for assisting so many artists with capturing their creative vision and preserving your methodology in videos like the ones on this channel so that others can continue what you upheld.
RIP Legend! ❤ Watched this a few days ago and just heard the news. You were the greatest! Thanks for the good music, inspiration and the art you helped to put forward.
Goddamnit. I was hoping to make my way to Chicago and record with him one of these days. I guess that will never happen now. I hope Electrical Audio will find a way to stay open if possible. I've learned a lot about engineering from Steve and his channel. Rest in Peace Good Sir, you strange genius.
Me too. It was one of bucket list things for pretty much all of my adult life. But I’d never reached a point where I had enough songs that I deemed good enough to justify recording them with albini.
Like the rest of us, I was floored by the news of Steve's passing. My heart goes to his family, friends, co-workers, and collaborators. I loved watching these videos as much as listening to all the amazing music he has contributed to. What a loss. RIP Steve. Legend.
So weird to see Steve standing up playing, talking in an animated voice, excited about the sound. Nothing appears like he is close to death whatsoever, life is so fragile. RIP

He was giving an interview hours before his heart attack. Nothing seemed abnormal either, the usual Steve.
@@caseystu123 it was something like "the last interview Steve Albini gave before his death", it popped up on my feed

@@caseystu123 apparently they removed it. It's not even in my history anymore. Could've been a clickbait title added to the interview recorded a while back
RIP Steve thanks so much for your knowledge of recording equipment, amplifiers, and mixing in general. Your impact on underground and popular music spoke volumes, with your interesting way of looking at things, and a philosophy that was punk as fuck
When I first watched this over the weekend I wasn't expecting to be coming back here typing this today, but rest in peace Steve. True hero of home recording
The influence Steve had on me seems to parallel what John Peel meant to him. I'm am so at a loss. No public figure has upset me when they passed, but this has cut deep. Ever since I was 10 years old, Steve has played a huge role in my life and can't speak highly enough on the admiration I've had for his work, ethics, freedom of expression and shamelessness of blunt honesty. RIP you true source of inspiration to myself and countless others here today!
Nothing more I can add to this comment other than it sums up my feelings completely too. Steve has been an inspiration to me on so many levels for as long as I can remember. This is a terrible loss. RIP Mr Albini.
I can't believe that I just watched this video yesterday and saw the news today. Loved Steve, loved his ethos, heart goes out to his family and everyone at EA. Thank you so much for these videos and a lifetime of music. I'll be spinning big black today.
Just wanted to say I'm so sorry for his family, staff, and close friends. It's truly devastating. I've not been this upset since John Peel died Steve has been an inspiration to me my whole musical life. It always felt like a musical secret i had, that no one else knew about in the mainstream world, where I don't fit in. Somewhere i could escape to. I lost a part of myself this week Thank you so much for existing Steve
I’m devastated to learn Steve has left us. His wealth of knowledge shared is something we will always be grateful for. He will be sorely missed. Rest easy sir!
RIP Steve * A great musician, engineer is leaving... he left a great legacy and reconstruction of how a band in the studio should sound so natural. ¡Gracias por concientizar el audio!
Sam is the local amp tech at one of our guitar shops here in Birmingham, Alabama. The first time I played one of these, and saw the bulb light up it kind of shocked me. Then you think about it, and it's kind of genius because it's so simple.
Wow...I'm totally stunned as I'm sure we all are. We will miss your wit, your wisdom, and your commitment to helping us all become better audio engineers! My deepest condolences to Steve's family and all at the EA Team. RIP Steve and thanks for making the world a brighter place!
Rest in peace, Steve. I learned a lot from listening to the music you've captured, your philosophy on recording, and hearing you talk about all the little details. Thanks for educating the next generation of engineers and music makers.
So basically they are adjusting the bias voltage to the O/P tube by lifting the cathode resistor away from ground. This is how a tremolo circuit works except as an oscillator. Also the AGC ( Automatic Gain Control) circuit in an old radio works the same way where the output is rectified, smoothed and fed back to the bias of the preamp to lower the output volume. The pan circuit is something I built years ago but never found anyone interested in it. You can have a clean channel and a dirty channel and use the pot to add harmonics to the clean channel to get the distortion effect you want.
From Colombia I have to say that Steve Albini is a really humble person, and I say "is" becasuse He is still alive in the recording scene, He once answered one of my calls personally and humbly gave his opinion on our musical sound, I was impressed by his modesty! He is a real master in the sound matter, Thank you Mr. Albini, We will miss You, Rest In Peace.
RIP Steve.. One of the best dudes . Real dark day for the music industry. Thank you for all the tips, tricks and sharing your knowledge and may your journey to the next world be as good as it was in this one. Phoneomenal work ethic, recall and humour. You'll be missed
I first saw Samamp Amps at the 2009 Nashville Amp Expo. Back then, there were a lot fewer options for playing a loud amp at quiet levels. Since I had a degree in Electrical Engineering, I was fascinated by his use of common appliance bulbs to reduce power. A few months later, I got a VAC 23, which was perfect for my setup in a small 12x12 room in my basement. The 3-watt setting sounded glorious and was quiet enough that my voice could still be heard loud and clear in my headset mic. Two years later, I saw the VAC 40 Series II at the 2011 Amp Expo, and that amp became my go-to for many years. To date, it is still one of the best-sounding amps I own. Sam Timberlake is a genius.
R.I.P Steve Albini is probably the only audio engineer I ever hoped I would meet someday. I gotta try even harder to get to Heaven because I know he was one of the really good guys. Sharing his knowledge here at Electrical Audio is proof of that great work and art ethos that he combined brilliantly.
RIP Steve. The world doesn't reward people of your knowledge and integrity the way that it should. But I know that the world would be much richer if there were more men like you in it.
rest in peace, steve. thank you for recording so many records i love, playing music i love, and for giving your knowledge so selflessly to help others who wish to go into your field.
RIP Steve! A large part of my music collection has Steve's (and Bob Weston's) input all over it, as musician or engineer. Thanks for everything and condolences to family and friends.
The first (and really, the only) producer/engineer I was so impressed with, that I started buying records by bands I’d never heard of just because he’d recorded them. I didn’t know if I’d like the band or the songs - but I knew I’d love how they sounded. It started with Big Black and then I discovered Urge Overkill, The Pixies, The Jesus Lizard, The Breeders, PJ Harvey and on and on etc., etc. If you were a friend or especially, family member, know that his artistry has and will continue to impact music for generations. Godspeed sir - you were one of a kind.
RIP Steve, thank you for sharing so much knowledge while you were here, you really inspired me to start taking my recording seriously. Really appreciate you, thank you and rest easy
Heartbroken to hear that Steve has passed. Condolences to his friends and family. I first saw Shellac in London in 94 and I think I must of seen them more than 20 times since then. Thank you so much for those fantastic records, and those incredible shows.
Sam is the goat! I lucked out and found a Vac 90 head from him around 2006. It's been my guitar head for years! I even let scott kelly from neurosis use it at a show once and he thought it sounded great.
Watched this a few days ago and was excited to see a couple recent uploads. I thought he’d live to 100. I don’t have any words that can do justice for the loss he leaves us with. Sad as fuck.
I'm pretty sure I'm in shock right now. Came to the comments to talk amps and got sucker-punched with RIPs. I can't believe this is real. What a bombshell. My deepest condolences to Steve's family and friends.
Yep, despite listening to so much of his work, seeing his band and having a degree in music tech, I am way late to this party. But, what a time to discover and squeeze from more joy into his life after his passing!
RIP Steve. When this video came into my feed, I was so happy to have a new one. I never thought when I started watching it that you'd no longer be with us by the time I got to finish it. There will never be another you and the world is far worse off for it.
Horrible news. I watched this video yesterday which somehow makes the news today that much worse. Deaths of people I don't know generally don't phase me at all, but this one hurts. Steve is a legend, a force that had a tangible effect on this world, whether you knew his name or not his contribution to music and engineering effected your experience on this planet. Thanks for being you, Steve.
Heartbroken. Learned so much from this genial, humble and generous man. RIP dear Steve. I wonder I you ever realized just how loved you were by just how many
Jesus Christ. I just heard. I'm speechless. Wait, no, this is speech. Steve was about the last and top dude on a very short list of people I really wanted to meet. But he taught us everything didn't he? What the... all of my condolences and... man.
I love Steve’s knowledge and recording acumen. He dresses like my dad, he always wore a dark blue jumpsuit for working out in the yard and his cars. Always would have a tire pressure gauge in his front pocket
We are all saddened. You will be greatly missed. Hope there is a studio up there for you. Rest In Peace Steve. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I gasped and cried out, "Oh, no!" in the moment that news of Steve's passing arrived. What a blow to music. What a loss. RIP Maestro, and condolences to your family, friends, and colleagues.
Yea I guess I'll jump on this wagon and comment. In a world of esoteric cheese balls there stands Mr Albini, sword in hand against them for the benefit of we . I have always being a student of music, performing and recording, and have always Steve Albini since I learned about him ten or fifteen years ago. His integrity, to me, seems unmatched and unchallenged and he has being a priceless inspiration. I hope his family will recover from this loss. Who ever you people who are his family please take condolence in knowing that there are people in this world who don't know you at all but are shedding a tear for you because you have lost a man who was (as it seems to me) obviously, authentic. I am sorry for your loss. And sorry for your maybe, sometimes, resenting the time it took for him to maintain his craft and his passion. I hope you were involved. I hope you come onto this channel and tell your story. Love, sincerely, Todd.
I'm gonna miss this guy. I may only ever have met him through speakers and videos like this one, but man was he an inspiration. So difficult to understand that less than a week after this video went up he was no longer among us. The music lives on. RIP Steve. You were real. Real real.
RIP my Brother. Thanks so much for all the great videos, learning. and most of all the music you made and help make. The world is a bit duller and darker without you here!
I’ve learned so much from this man and looked up to him for so long. I was shocked to hear the news. RIP Steve, you’ve left behind an unparalleled legacy
RIP Steve... You gave me a lot of inspiration to become an audio engineer, and I really-really (!) want to thank you for giving me a new meaning to my life... for helping me to understand my true path... for helping me to find my true passion that I want to go after my whole life. Thank you for your art, from classics like Big Black and Shellac, to obscurities like R@$&man and Run N!*$%r Run. You are a true hero for me, even though we never met in life. Thank you Steve, покойся с миром брат.
I was watching this video with my breakfast this morning, it was great just to nerd out and see other people having fun with some cool gear. Super sad to hear about Steve's passing, true legend and a massive inspiration.

I was watching this video with my breakfast this morning, it was great just to nerd out and see other people having fun with some cool gear.
Super sad to hear about Steve's passing, true legend and a massive inspiration.
