You KNOW you are a sick gear lunatic freak when first thing Monday morning you are looking for Andrew’s epic studio tours to get your weekly fix. I have had studios since I bought my first Teac A-2340S back in the 70’s and it still never gets old seeing other people’s studios. Keep em coming! 👍
I had the pleasure of meeting Vance back in 2004 when I was an intern at a studio in Nashville. He couldn't have been a nicer guy. Thanks for this video.
Maybe my favorite series on TH-cam! Love watching how everyone makes it work from home to full commercial studios ( and all the combinations! ) Keep them coming!!
Now that is a fully featured professional quality studio in a home! Feels cozy, yet has all the goods and acoustics that you would want to record and mix!
Love the guy. We were lucky enough to be one of the last projects in the old place, back in ‘14. We only did one track, but learned so much. A real audio/production sensei! ⚡️
I am really new to trying to learn music production (Got a copy of FL Studio I barely know how to use and that's about it), and just looking at all this leads me to imagine it would take a persons entire lifetime just to LEARN how to use all the tech just in the studio alone. Absolutely amazing to see this amazing collection, so much stuff in all in one place.
You’d be surprised how much you learn in a year if you really get into it. After 10 years you’d be capable of operating everything in that studio with your eyes closed
Very cool studios indeed. A lot of pride. The guy really knows his stuff technically which is nice. Working with him, you know he isn't stuck on legacy because he understands the tech and can upgrade in his head to decide the best scenarios.
I’m never going to forget his idea for pedals. Now I want to have a patch bay on my desk specifically for pedals. Hook it up to some reamp switching thing. Then you can have them Velcroed onto some place or another. Then have the patch bay hook up to your normal patch bay to use in normal mixing as well. It’s a genius way to do all of those things in one place.
This was super bad ass. Killer studio. My jaw hit the floor when he explained the thing about streaming to the clients car and being able to adjust the mix from inside the car. That's brilliant. I wonder how well it works tho. Spotty wireless streaming can totally kill a flow.
The only way to live your dreams is to do it. You have to make a decision and go all in on it to make your dreams come true. However that's a scary thing for some people to do when we are taught all about financial responsibility and what we "should aspire" to. I once dated a girl whose dad told me music was not a career and that I needed a real goal. People like that are truly the lost ones.
Vance is such a wealth of knowledge,amazing to be in the same room with him and get to sit and talk to him about some of his gear in different tips and tricks. Wizard of Berry hill for sure
Bro ive been catching your videos every so often for a little over a year or so now, and Ive gotta tell ya, i respect your grind yo. Youve consistantly grown and been honest with your channel and you seem like a solid dude. Keep that shit up!
comment #419 Digging through old archive videos and seeing this one surprised me to know that this is the place and guy that recorded Chris Stapleton. Knowing the success and being able to connect that to what the studio looks like and the way the studio engineer appears does help connect the pieces on what it takes to succeed in the music industry. This place was unique, very different all the way down to the guy, Vance, having his very first sm57 in the closet or the walk in repair room. There are not too many people that have a room for mods or repair in a studio, that's smart.
Something tells me you're going to start seeing a lot of vertical velcro pedal boards all over town now haha. But man what an incredible studio. Thanks so much for the tour. I only wish he would've spent a little more time in the server closet and got into some detail there.
@@HOLLASOUNDS I agree. What people don't think about is that all that gear is a computer doing the work inside. Well, when you have computers that are as good as they are today, all it takes is a GUI to run the same "code" on your PC to do the same thing the actual hardware does. I LOVE where we are with VSTs and FX on PCs nowadays.
@@KevboKev you can make the sounds but you can't produce inspiration the same with a computer as you do with a physical object that has character and knobs for a musician to touch. It's like a keyboard player inputting guitar or a guitarist playing a guitar. It may be doable but it is not the same. This is a major issue in music today as people lose touch with the physical world. Music is no longer groundbreaking it is simply replication/duplication with digital cut and paste DAW's. I still love the sounds produced by tape they sound real and imperfect as they should.
Since we are talking about "music recording", just had to say as cool as Vance is it's not his fault what every musician wants to sound like good or bad.
This is the most insane I have ever seen in audio gear and studios... Nice guy! I laughed many times, at the nice vibe and the huge soul in whole this, I mean it's just insane.
so i love the studios with tons of natural light, buuuuut, that live room! it would just be fun to be in let alone play with everything! what a great video!
What an amazing studio and guy :) Really great pleasure to see a studio tour of this kind! The only hardware we got in common is that OWC dock for the Mac though :D
I could listen to Vance talk about recording ALL DAY. Excellent tour.
LOVE listening to Vance talk about recording.
Vance is incredible. I once got to sit on the floor of his control room and listen to him talk. One of the coolest days of my life.
You KNOW you are a sick gear lunatic freak when first thing Monday morning you are looking for Andrew’s epic studio tours to get your weekly fix. I have had studios since I bought my first Teac A-2340S back in the 70’s and it still never gets old seeing other people’s studios.
Keep em coming! 👍
You’re going to start seeing those vertical pedalboards in studios after this, what an awesome dude.
im awesome 2
That was in my opinion, the most well put together and thought out studio you've explored. He's not only brilliant, he seems like a fun hang.
Hell yeah that's what I'm saying
Even had a basement wow
Okay THIS wins the prize out of all of them. Just the best vibe, style and tech totally love it and would feel at home instantly 🤩
Love that he is so cost conscious. What an amazing maze of musical wonder.
Vance is the man, so cool of him to have you (and all of us) over to his spot ~ Thanks for another cool episode, keep em coming!
Thanks for watching!
I had the pleasure of meeting Vance back in 2004 when I was an intern at a studio in Nashville. He couldn't have been a nicer guy. Thanks for this video.
Crazy, sweet, inspiring, freakin awesome... just incredible to be in another MASTERS studio! Thanks again Andrew and VANCE!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Kinda makes Me greatful that DAWs and digital divicses can all fit in a laptop and do the exact same as most of the physical gear.
Holy s**t huge inspiration here. Now that is a studio.
holt shit that room with the hanging doors was a trippy work of art
Maybe my favorite series on TH-cam! Love watching how everyone makes it work from home to full commercial studios ( and all the combinations! ) Keep them coming!!
Glad you enjoy it!
This was a tour of my plugins folder, but in real life. What an awesome studio. Thanks for the tour.
Just from what I see thats the kind of studio I get invited to and work
Now that is a fully featured professional quality studio in a home! Feels cozy, yet has all the goods and acoustics that you would want to record and mix!
Love the guy. We were lucky enough to be one of the last projects in the old place, back in ‘14. We only did one track, but learned so much. A real audio/production sensei! ⚡️
Mind blowing. I would never get bored.
Love Vance! Not only a great engineer but a great friend!!!

That ART Pro VLA just chilling with gear worth thousands. That's awesome.
I have one! Hence, I must have a Grammy in my future as well.
@@rjb7569 🤣🤣 if it only worked that way.
A true mad scientist!
The pleasure was all mine. Thank you man.
This is my new favorite channel. How and why did I find it just now...!?!??! Must watch all
There is no way he uses all this gear. Maybe 40% of it. Really stacked studio. Candy everywhere.
What a great guy! I went to his studio for a post NAMM party a few years back....what a great time...he's truly one of the coolest!
Very cool studios indeed. A lot of pride. The guy really knows his stuff technically which is nice. Working with him, you know he isn't stuck on legacy because he understands the tech and can upgrade in his head to decide the best scenarios.

The pedal wall idea is definitely a gem.
Holy moly, this was worth the watch!
Love how you’re absolutely nailing your channel for us all. Amazing! 👏🏻
I try haha

Vance is the engineer I aspire to be like. Badass wizard.
Vance is brilliant. You are brilliant. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great info on the history of the airport. Thank you. Things like that interest me.
I'm glad you appreciated that story as much as I did!
So much atmosphere, best studio tour to date
YES, you finally got him. Vance is my hero.
Vance was speaking his mind and i could hear it
Tales from Borderlands! Incredible studio. Creative!
thanks for this series, every monday im like straight on here for it lolllll
Thank you!
This man is living his dream! Looks like an amazing studio it'd be fun to play in there!

Awesome my son Jordan Voyles is going to love this. Thanks!
What did I just see?! Wow 😮
Wow, you got Vance Powell? You are officially the Goat!!!
Vance's puremix vids are enlightening and, well, friggin' awesome! Awesome studio, awesome video.
Thank you very much for the kind words Sir!!!
@@PuremixAudioTutorials You all are the best!
Vance is such a wealth of knowledge,amazing to be in the same room with him and get to sit and talk to him about some of his gear in different tips and tricks. Wizard of Berry hill for sure
Ok. THAT was a great interview AND studio! Would love to sit there and watch him work.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Vance is one of my favorite engineers, appreciate for this Andrew

Thank you for all your great videos, I know how much work it is. You are appreciated!
Hey, thanks!
Love the vibe of that place.
Best one so far!
Happy to hear it!
Vance is the man. I particularly love the vintage 1998 Kensignton track ball 26:17. Keeping everything old school!!!
Indeed
Besides, the track ball has greater diffusion uniformity...
So neat and organized... I need to clean up my studio area in my bedroom.
i love jack white too hes a genius i didnt know hes producer thanks andrew love your videos
Wooow Vance Powell Studio... Soo cool
Bro ive been catching your videos every so often for a little over a year or so now, and Ive gotta tell ya, i respect your grind yo. Youve consistantly grown and been honest with your channel and you seem like a solid dude. Keep that shit up!
Thanks! I appreciate that. The grind is real

Vance convinced me to the BURL stuff. Awesome video. 😍🥰
Raise your hand if you saw Vance's mouth move? Nice video btw! 🔥
Vance is the man. His PureMix tutorials are the best.
Dude is about to record the sound of the whole entire galaxy
that is probably the coolest studio i've ever seen
Love the house and the studio all in one...942, awesome place to have some real nice fun recording stuff and with friends.
Vance is the coolest dude and a massive talent and the nicest guy on top of it all!

Vance is the man!!
That set up is mind blowing.
Proper tried and tested classic gear. Mono pultecs as well I see.
Something tells me you're going to start seeing a lot of vertical velcro pedal boards all over town now haha. But man what an incredible studio. Thanks so much for the tour. I only wish he would've spent a little more time in the server closet and got into some detail there.
It looks cool but most of that gear can and already has been replicated in Daws.
@Franz Hausser Guitar pedals are a bit different as if your playing guitar it makes sence.

Wow! the whole place is genius...love this episode
Under my drum-brella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh ...
Solid content,
Much appreciated
Since we are talking about "music recording", just had to say as cool as Vance is it's not his fault what every musician wants to sound like good or bad.
Huge fan of Vance.
i started imagining him without his facial hair and i cannot unsee it. such a sick studio!!
How much gear do you need?
YES!
Holy cow! Nice one!
damn this place has vibe!! I get so tired of seeing all those perfect and clean studios. what a great place
...and then there is me with my practice amp and a delay pedal...I'm just totally amazed by it all.
What an amazing studio. Inspirational.
Fun video. I enjoy seeing tours of established studios and interesting homes.
That studio is insane. So cool.
21:15 - everything in the studio funnels down to one Thunderbolt cable. Wow!
😮😮😮
This is the most insane I have ever seen in audio gear and studios... Nice guy! I laughed many times, at the nice vibe and the huge soul in whole this, I mean it's just insane.
Crazy Setup
JESUS CHRIST
Holy grail for an engineer
so i love the studios with tons of natural light, buuuuut, that live room! it would just be fun to be in let alone play with everything! what a great video!
Thanks for checking it out!
What an amazing studio and guy :) Really great pleasure to see a studio tour of this kind!
The only hardware we got in common is that OWC dock for the Mac though :D
that was awesome man I really enjoyed watching this
Awesome, found this well worth the price of admission.
What a good feeling to see I have almost all the equipment of this studio in my Mac Pro.
no you do not....this guy will blow you away with a hybrid approach digital and analog......but you do not know that until you hear it
Lovely organized mess. Nice change from all the clinical type studios!
Love the Knas Ekdahl Moisturizer sitting on the racks in the control room.
Nice....enjoyed it. Great editing here.
You sure know how to attract the ELITE in the business
Thanks for watching GG!
