About Spectre Sound Studios:
I'm Glenn Fricker, engineer here at Spectre Sound Studios. I love making records, and after doing it for sixteen years, I want to pass on what I've learned. On my channel you can find tutorials on how to record guitar, bass, real drums and vocals. There's reviews and demos of tube amps, amp sims, drums, mics, preamps, outboard gear, Electric Guitar, Bass Guitar, and plugin effects.
We've covered Moon on the Water, played Bias FX, given you the absolute best in Stupid Musician Texts, ranted & raved about bass guitar, and this channel is where The Eagle has Landed.
Everything you've wanted to learn about recording Hard Rock & Heavy Metal can be found right here on this channel!
I also respond to your comments & questions: The best make it into the SMG Viewer's Comments series of videos. Loads of fun, lots of laughs.
Thanks for checking out my channel & please subscribe!

"There's a lot more to this job than just pushing buttons" that should be framed on every studio's wall
Now now hold on there , you might be giving a mildly enthusiastic "DeeJay" some ideas .
What do you mean man? I just flip that power switch on my Behringer mixer and GOOOOOOOO...
"There's a lot more to this job than just pushing buttons", said at the very end of this vid, is a very underrated statement. Rock On Glenn!
Hey tinker bell, where are all these buttons everyone keeps talking about.
And I’m not sure about these sliding fader thingies either 🤔
Although one of them does go to 11 👍
@@JTPiano2011 Haha! Word up!!
To quote my brother (not an audio engineer, but an effects animator. It still applies though.): There is no "make pretty" button.
Indeed. It also involves moving sliders.
"Expensive equipement doesn't beat basic physics." I'm gonna drop this one at every excuse. It won't stick, but it will annoy the right people...
The converse is also true: cheap equipment doesn't beat physics. You can't get full range sound from small & cheap.
@@StringerNews1 Small speakers being a prime example. But some people need to stop taking marketing talk seriously... 😉
@@luisnunes2010 absolutely! There's no replacement for displacement. You can't cheat physics with little speakers. And that 100 Hz midbass hump isn't the same as real extended bass. Needless to say, silk screening "studio monitor" onto a pair of cheap speakers doesn't have any magical effect.

"Don't mix with your eyes"
Such a great tip!
As a photographer, I've shot a lot of theater and music.
I have a rule that I teach people:
"Don't photograph with your ears"
Its real easy to hear something that sounds awesome, but has no visual, and think that's the shot.
The flipside of that is when something is a "sleepy" moment on the stage, but a great stage picture.
Don't photograph with your ears, and don't mix with your eyes.
The worst part has to be shutting off the part of your brain that wants to listen to music so you can focus on visually getting a shot instead. I assume you don't necessarily photograph bands you enjoy listening to all the time though...
@@i-never-look-at-replies-lol
I try to switch between listening to the music, and shooting for a few minutes.
Its resulted in me missing a lot of cool "moments".
Having said that, if you know the band really well, you know when they're going to create great stage pictures.
Mixing with eyes is great unless you have blurred vision
"Dont fart with your mouth"
Glen, headphones are superior for mixing because they reduce the “complaining girlfriend” frequency by about 6db.
I have developed a plug-in that completely cuts out complaining girlfriend frequencies. Uad is sponsoring us.
@@MisterRorschach90 I predict many downloads of your plug-in. Does it send text alerts that lure girlfriends away from the mixing area?

When it comes to editing? Yes.
When it comes to making a point that will be remembered? Maybe not. Context is key.
@@SpectreSoundStudios people love taking everything out of context.

"Dont fix it in the mix just dont record shit" should be a shirt!
Dead on big guy , Bullseye , and hey , i would get one of those shirts . lol
I remember a teacher once said to me "amateurs fix it in Post, experienced fix it in Pre... because its easier"
Or, the old saying: “ You can’t polish a turd.”
Yes, if you have the space for a vocal recording booth, and a properly treated room, and the right equipment and, and, and. Or you can do it "wrong" and fix it in post. In my case, record voice-over for a podcast using my $1,000 Studio i.e. $150 of USB mic, an antipop windsleeve and $850 of iZotope Complete bundle bought in a big discount sale. Oh and the 12 core Zen 2 Linux box running OBS & Resolve on 128GB of Samsung B die & a 1TB SLC Raid 0 scratch drive.
"Shit in, Shit out"
You’re not wrong about the drummer thing. A few years back we had a deal with Full Sail for recording…at one point we lost our drummer while the session was already booked. Having been a drummer for years I managed to tear myself away from the mirror (I am the singer after all) and answer the call. The engineer in charge of the lab seemed shocked at how laid back I was about having to move my gear around to get the best possible recording. Seriously did not know how many d-bags are out there!
"There's a lot more to this job than just pushing buttons" - For real. You have to turn knobs and slide faders too. Sometimes I fuck up and turn faders, push knobs, and slide buttons... man does that leave you with a mess.

This made me laugh waaaay harder than it should have lolol the visual i got killed me. Great comment!! xD
Oh man the worst is when you try to light up a joint but set fire to your mixing console instead. I get confused like that sometimes.
I like that this guy acts like a hard ass but you can tell that he genuinely wants us to understand and be better
Well, that's his entire sjchpyeel :) but yeah it's very likeable. And it's a stupidness filter. If you get offended (eg as a bassist or guitarist), you rage quit, and then Glenn can focus on the rest of the audience that actually wants to listen to the message. And, we all feel like an in-crowd for it, so we can feel good about not being a pussy and being honest and intellectual. Yes, Glenn knows us well.
@@rijden-nu exactly
“Always check your mix in the car” most important tip ever lol 💯
I love how a lot of the advice Glenn Gives (e.g. "be easy to work with", "don't be afraid to make decisions") is stuff that should apply to basically everything - from professional work to private life. Shows how much the average person lacks in common sense. Dude, when Covid is over, I'd love to chug a beer with you.
I know I'm not alone, but #15 always hits home. Take care of people, and be a human. It's easy to write people off with, "Not my problem." It takes good people helping others to get to where we are. Kudos to you, Glenn, for pushing this.
Joking aside, on the vain of limits, one of my favorite quotes is by Orson Welles: "The lack of limitations is the enemy of art"
Good quote. Zappa once said, "Art has to have a frame around it; otherwise, 'What's that shit on the wall?'"
BTW, 'vain' means arrogant or conceited. 'Vein' can be either a blood vessel or a layer of mineral in the earth; e.g. "a thick vein of gold was discovered in the mountains." You wanted the second spelling.
/Grammar Nazi
Wahahahah yeah in my defense I was hung over when I typed that
@@thegreatmarondraith8741 No worries. Just a heads up.
@@a2ndopynyn Love that Zappa quote! Hey bud, never apologize for following grammar rules. They are essential for accurate communication!!
The over-perfection of modern recordings is starting to hit its limits. As production gets more sophisticated, hopefully we can add a little more freedom, humanity and slight imperfection back to popular music.
you could just start now by rejecting all the bullshit drum replacement software, beat detective and melodyne. if a band or artist can't play their songs in one take all the way through (ignoring vocal doubles, harmonies etc) then they shouldn't be in the studio, simple as that
@@f67739 and why you think like that?
@@derfred9571 because its dishonest and soulless.
Getting off "The Grid" addiction will go a long way in restoring what we're missing.
@@f67739 ...or totally honest and soulful...
Witnesses to sessions would come away astonished at the rank amateurism of the Stones in the studio, where they were capable of showing little more expertise than the newest band of nobodies working on their worthless demo tapes. But that recklessness was essential to the Stones process.
"I've virtually based a career around what I learned in those three days," pianist Jim Dickinson says with a laugh. "It was so organic and natural, you just had to stop and think, 'Who's right and who's wrong here?' And they literally didn't have a clue as to what they were doing. They were making a record the way people off the street will come in and make a record."
"They were the worst bloody band on the planet, the worst bunch of musicians in the world they could be for days at a time. Really fucking horrible. And you sit there wondering how on earth are we going to get anything out of this. They would play very badly, and that's how they played most of the time, very poorly, and out of tune... They were the worst band on the planet, BUT, when IT happened, they were transformed almost instantly from this dreadful band into THE ROLLING STONES, and blow you away. It was almost magical." - Andy Johns, recording engineer ♫
Not emotionally scaring the musicians by leaving the bathroom door open was the best one yet, i'd really like to know the backstory of that if you don't mind
Ya when I heard that all I could think was, "you KNOW there's a great story behind that one" ;-)
@@robblazik7185 exactly, im constantly checking the discord if glenn is on, i just want to know who got traumatised by seeing whos balls
It was me, and yes, therapy is helping.
A guitarist probably ran out of TP and put a guitar strap to rest. . .
As a student, I worked in municipal elderly home care. I saw weird shit. Literally. Nothing can shock me. Leave your bathroom door open for me and I will straight piss the crumbs off your wall if you want me to. (Maybe also if you don't.) I dare you.
I have seen so many audio disasters live from people mixing with their eyes. This was a major issue back several years ago on the earlier Yamaha digital consoles that were also often used in studio environments. The issue being that the "engineer" would turn the knobs untill the eq looked like it was doing something, only to have disasterous results when they had been boosting or cutting everything by a minimum of 10 db. Something to remember is to learn a little bit of what the numbers mean. Boost or cut by 3db an you have either doubled or halfed that frequency.
Thanks for that man
Glenn, you're like that annoying friend who really _does_ have your best interests at heart...
Re: "Don't Be Afraid to Make a Decision"
Limitations, even artificial ones, breed creativity. So I'd add to this, don't be afraid to cut out the 1000 plugins and bring your process down to a simple as possible. You'll be surprised what you can achieve.
Nobody used 1000 plugins ever
@@MrSkinkarde Shoegaze Artists: You underestimate my power
4:04 minor correction: if you place your monitors too close to the wall, you'll get a massive increase in bass response causing you to think your mix has more low end than it actually does, leading to mixes with LOWER bass because when mixing you'll perceive the track as having too much bass and you'll take out too much.
Actually depends on the speakers and room. This is more of a rule of thumb. Experimenting is crucial when setting up monitors.
In my particular situation I get the most even bass response with the monitors right up on the wall.
Not if you choke off the rear ports up against the wall.
First to realise I'm doing everything wrong. Cool.
You are not alone
You are not alone (2)
The only way to do it right is to do it wrong a few times...or many times.
Crap… same here! 💩
I can't even play, what made me think I could record?? Literally doing everything wrong!
As a cinematographer, I can say “Let’s fix it in the mix” compares to “let’s fix it in post” and A L W A Y S sucks 😂
The sound proofing demonstration with the sliding doors is way more satisfying that it has any right to be.
Hey Glen! I'm a hobbyist musician/composer trying to actually start learning things about recording instead of just stumbling through it with no clue what I'm doing. The first thing thing that caught my attention about your channel is that you use Reaper, which I have been using for a few years now and I am blown away at the quality it offers at such an affordable price! What has kept me coming back is your awesome sense of humor and your amazing generosity with the blood-sweat-and-tears lessons you've learned in your career. A heartfelt thank you!
Getting it tight at the source is HIGHLY undervalued.
Glen, thank you so much for for including #15 - Don’t take the path of least resistance.
I work in television news (yes, I’m the devil!!!) and have been a production manager for half my life. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen my production staff do this and it’s caused animosity and trust issues between us and the on air staff.
Simply put, our jobs are to make the talent look and perform their best at ALL TIMES. Even if sometimes that means doing shit we don’t want to do…like making sure an off-air monitor is at the perfect angle so they can delve deeper into their narcissism.
Trust me, your life will be so much easier and the work you put out will benefit if you just make them happy. Obviously there are limits, but it’s a good rule to live by!!!
Thanks for all the brilliant content!
Im legally deaf in one ear, with loss in the other
Mixing on headphones is the least of my problems lol
I listened to British Steel a few weeks ago ... and it DOES sound killer.
Hey Glen, you forgot to mention "if you have a Mac system, make sure you have a time machine backup".
Noted!
I have to mix on headphones. Literally at any minute of the day, someone is asleep and I can't record my amp or mix on my monitors. It sucks but that's the way she goes, man.
Worst case you just go to your car to listen to your mix, but headphones do the trick enough for me. Obviously Monitors a better but I cant have any here either so its fine.
Do you mix at a day care center?
Fuckin' way she goes bud....sometimes she goes, sometimes she doesn't
Get a Revv G20,
Slate headphones with the room emulation sound significantly better than most headphones I've mixed on in the past - not better than monitors but still nice!
My buddy saw my bedroom when I gave him a tour of my apartment, and his initial impression was “Well that was nice of you to give yourself a mattress in your mixing space.”
"Walking out of the studio, talking on the phone for hours" - I once recorded in a studio where the engineer was doing this, and actually tried to charge us for the entire time we were there, despite the fact that he spent probably 2 to 3 hours talking on the phone in the other room. Then he got mad that we didn't "buy him lunch".
I mix on monitors (Kali LP6's) for the most part. I do mix my guitar tones on headphones when I'm dialing one in. I use the Waves NX plug in with a pair of Shure SRH440's and have gotten great results. I feel it really helps me focus better. But I always check the tone double tracked & stereo on my monitors before moving on.
Ya when you use calibrated headphones/software you can get some pretty great results... I'm using the same setup with the exceptions of the headphones which are Senheisser HD-280's and I'm really happy with the headphones and the Kali's as part of the mixing process.... You (and Glenn) are right, headphones for detail work are fantastic ...
I don't do any mixing myself, but a good friend of mine is heavily into it, so you help me understand wtf he's talking about sometimes, and you crack me up. Cheers, Glen.
Never knew about the Kali's until I found this channel. Mixes changed forever after I got a pair of LP-8's. Those with a serious application of acoustic treatment and no more need for software 'fixes' like Sonarworks. Thanks Glenn!!
I think most people who voted headphones(Me included) are people recording their own stuff on a tight budget or just getting into recording. Atleast I hope so haha.
100% that (though I do want to upgrade this long term, but I'll need a good space first)
But I record and mix with a pair of 20,000 dollar audiophile cans from hifiman.
Yep. Lol. Headphones are way cheaper...
Most definitely but I'm not going to mix my own work though. I can't acoustically treat my bedroom nor do I have the space for the monitors or monitor stands. I'm basically just going to record through D.I. dry, programme my drums and bass without any effects and then send off.
having the space to do """"real production/mixing/mastering"""" is such an insane premium nowadays that headphone mixing has had to become the norm. shared housing and restrictive rentals are almost never taken into account by people giving "avoid this!"-type breakdowns. it's a shame that there isn't a better focus on how to use headphones instead of people just saying "don't! buy monitors!"
You’re hilarious and insightful at the same time. Rare dude!
This might be one of my favorite videos you've done. Definitely sharing this with my friends in audio
Glen thanks for this, my son convinced me to start recording after we went into lock down. Everything was and is trial and error so I'm really glad to see all the great information you are providing in small digestible chunks. Looking forward to seeing and learning more...thanks again.
Love this guy. He knows what metal heads want to hear. His "rules" are totally fing true
A long time ago, with a band I was in, we won a contest (something like battle of the bands) and our prize was to record one song in a "real" studio with a professional engineer. The recording went well but I remember, I sang the song 3 times and then sat down with the engineer to choose the best takes of each line (or almost each line). At some point, his phone rang, he got up and left for a long time and when he came back, he didn't even remember what we were doing. He had to look at his computer screen to see what we were doing and thankfully, we deleted the parts that we didn't like as we went, otherwise, we would have had to start all over again!
Thanks for all this! This is obviously the voice of experience talking and I appreciate that more than I can really express! While recording isn't my main goal or profession, sound can be absolutely vital for video work when it's requested.
Hey Glen! Just wanted to say that I downloaded your beginners course to audio and all I can say is OMG thank you so much for it. I’ve been re watching it over and over just so I can absorb all the info you’re explaining to us!
Been a long time fan of your channel for over five years now and still loving the content! Such an educational channel and it’s just awesome!
Thanks again for the awesome material! Cheers from New Zealand!
Best tip: “Don’t edit out the humanity!” @ 12:04
I just use headphones for a reference always good to check your mix on things people are listening to . The Kali's are so sick though
I love this guy, you tell me in simple hard words how things can be done right. When needed you scream to make an important point. Thats how you teach the hard way. Good work man. I've been engineering for decades (stage & live sound), and love what you teach me. THank you!
Great Video!!! Thanks yet again for your hard work Glenn.
Glenn just basically called all of us bass players unintentionally
What makes you think it was unintentional?! 🤣
I mix on headphones until I'm almost done, then I switch to monitors. I do a final check in the car. But I'm no pro.
If you have decent monitors try mixing on those and spot checking with headphones.
Zactly what I do. Seriously.
Love these videos! Great job Glenn
i love the enthusiasm and general love for the art you have. Love that its to help others in their musical ventures. Rock on, dude.
Computers collect a lot of dirt when placed on the floor. I have mine on a small end table that sits behind the main mixing desk.
Yes, computers on the floor collect *more* dust than on a small end table. And every year take that computer outside and blow all the out dust, dog hair and other crap with a cheap air blower. Canned compressed air is okay but in the long run you'll save money with a cheap air blower.
Also don't smoke / vape in the same room as your computer. Or your electronics. I used to fix computers and game consoles, and I lost count of how many people smoked so much they gave their electronics cancer.
Yo glen, when do we get a “glen rates home studio’s” series with maybe some pointers/advice?
That would be an awesome series! Great idea
I am so glad i came across your channel. Fairly new to this and been breaking away from the dumb drummer stereo type. A year ago never thought id be watching a video on getting good guitar tones, and home studio videos, but i'm so thankful that you take time and give a few pointers. Currently just working on recording my band and all of these videos are super helpful and point me in the right direction. Rock on Glen, content is very much appreciated.
Well done, Glenn! Very helpful!
I use headphones really just to setup guitar tones or vocal levels then get a more final sound with monitors
Headphones are fine for solo tracks like that.
Same here.

Haha I love those "audiophile" guys that brag on how good their system sounds because they spent a fortune on the monitors, cables and vinylplayers and what not.
Only that they are listening to their music in an acoustic terribly treated room.
My monitors sit on the floor under my computer desk because my mixes don't sound good when I have them ear level.
Just trying to make Glenn cringe a little!
Glenn, dude, thanks for these tutorials man. Your channel is the best thing I've found recently. Valuable content there, mate. And entertaining. Good job, seriously.
Really Great episode everybody needs to hear! Thanks MUCHLY!
I thought the closet thing was discouraged because it won't absorb low end.
Not sure who said that, but in my experience, I got some incredible results. Basically, any large box filled with soft stuff wil become a bass trap. In this instance, leaving the doors open sounded better than with them closed. It's certainly worth a shot!
Monitors+headphones. That option wasn't there so I just picked headphones.
Why didn't you pick monitors, then?
@@emissaryofcharybdis105 No real reason. I guess because H comes before M, lol. I'm pretty lazy too, so I usually don't reach back behind my monitors to turn them on until towards the end of a mix.
@@emissaryofcharybdis105 👊👍
I'm so glad you gave the advice "don't be afraid to make a decision". Starting out with 2 tape decks and a DJ mixer back in the mid 80's, I thought I'd arrived when I got my first Tascam cassette 4 track! Sometimes I think the guys getting started with recording today have a lot of advantages, but the endless options can end up being a creative limitation. So glad I learned from having to bounce tracks and make a creative commitment. You just had to get that bounce mix right. You had to envision what the overall levels of the song would require, and try to compensate for that. And once those first tracks were recorded over, that was it, no going back. No redo button!
I can appreciate the direct honesty and amount of useful information on this video.
Keep up the sweet work Glenn!
MAD RESPECT! Thank you for sharing!
I am so happy you did this video. I started building my new 400 square foot studio last year and am in the finishing stages right now. Should be moved in a couple more weeks. I made the walls 12" or a foot wide using heavy gauge steel stud, double layer 5/8" type x drywall with green glue and insulated. I have some really neat sound treatments for the doors. Man I am so excited to be almost done this, dreams do come true when you work hard and stay focused on your goals.

Glad I watched this, Glen. You have affirmed that most of what I'm doing is right. I'll work on the rest. Thanks!
Thank you glen for this content, right now I can't build my Home Studio, but with everything on this video I'm sure that I will have a well prepared studio for when I'm able to build it. Thanks again!
Thanks for all these videos. Home studio being finished and I have no idea where to start setting up. Nothing in it yet so I will try to set up monitors and go from there.
You are an absolute gem, sir. I’m on the musician side of this, and want nothing more than to ensure any project we provide to our engineer/producer is as easy for him to work with as possible. I’ve only recently found your channel, but in the ten videos or so that I’ve watched, I don’t think you’ve said one thing I don’t 100% agree with. As a former Drill Sergeant and retired Infantryman, I fucking love the way you present it all too. So perfect. Thank you so much.
Back in 1982 I did my first solo project " Ratatosk " on an Akai reel to reel with sound on sound. It took a whole lotta learning, and a whole lotta guessing. I still have a copy of the tape, and even if the sound is far from good, It's still great nostalgia listening to it
Great video Glen!!
You've become one of my favorite TH-camrs, Glen - Can't wait to submit my mix one of these Mondays
One of your finest guides to date, Glenn!
Thanks for the great advice, Glen.
Thank you Glenn🔥🤘🔥
Thanks Glenn Great advice.
Really thanks for all the content!
I really like these newer videos, just you sharing your knowledge on the easily-overlooked side of recording music. Nice stuff.
Glenn, I have to say that this is one of your best videos. You have a lot of great advice here. And I know "locking the bathroom door" one is kind of humorous but it is important in the sense that it speaks to a level of professionalism in your own home studio. Just because the studio is in your home doesn't allow you to be too casual. You should act in the same professional way that you would if you were in a venerated professional studio. Great vid.
My man, you are a wealth of knowledge. Working with you would be crazy fun. Glad someone out there still tells it how it is.
Thank you for providing so much useful info!
Btw i just want to say thank you, i decided about 2 years ago to start recording and mixing etc and immediately found you. And for the last year ive been applying rhe knowledge ive gained mostly from you. Warren as well and mixbus. But ive been able to make something im "mostly" comfortable with letting out into the public. I have 3 song out with one band and one with another and i couldnt do it without you. Im starting to do my own thing because others aren't reliable but you may like Psycho Pilots music. Probably not the production yet but those were my first few trys
Thanks again Glen!
Thanks for the tips on the monitor positions!
