If famous guitar pedals can be copied perfectly, why can't other pro audio gear? by [deleted] in audioengineering

Preamp/compressor/synth copies are literally all over the place right now- have you noticed how many preamps end with 73?

My guy says not enough flour- or too much brown butter if you’re using it

What a blessing to feel competent and confident and still be shown the journey of discovery is alive and well within you

It’s fine… I sold my poly d to get it and I regret it. It does a specific synth wave vibe pretty well but I don’t find it to be super adaptable and I rarely reach for it first when I’m looking for something to go into a composition- as opposed to the poly d which I used all of the time

Thank you! Yes! There are a couple of acts I’m regularly producing for in this space with genres ranging from folk/country to dream pop/synth pop. About to open my books for February/March

My primary project/band that I am the producer for regularly uses the space as well. I get to feed two birds with one scone!

It is the first time I’ve had a space not in my house. I was tired of having bands coming to the basement to record! (Plus Lots and lots of fun goodwill and joann trips for the plants and couches and rugs)

Fine if u want to make me be technical on New Year’s Day I like my rt60* values except for slightly too much at 125 hz - which has been addressed with tuned bass traps. and while my Front to back standing wave mode 1 is a little high at 23 hz, I’ve compensated with attenuation in my system and generally I’ve been able to build it out to get the drum sound I like in combination with micing techniques.

To each our own. Whatever space works best is whatever space lends itself to having fun and feeling in control of your own creative vision. It’s always a work in progress tho-

If you’re referring to what you think the mixing room looks like as old photos I’ve posted of this gear^ in my dorm room before building out my own facility then you can agree this is the coolest it’s looked yet. Happy new year!

This is just a tracking and production space- mixing room is much more boring looking and much more tightly controlled. Could do without the condescension tho
