U87 -> Great River -> Apollo (will get the CL1B as well eventually) great classic tone

[GeorgeAmodei]

Hi Andrew- I personally use is RUPERT NEVE "Shelford Channel" ( using HPF, >EQ > Comp ) w/ Blend @ times plus TEXTURE >UA apollo X6...then Pro Q3, >1176 if needed & LA-2A ( Plug-In) DeEsser, > Studder A800 /Oxide Tape/SATURN & of course 2 AUX for Verbs & 1-2 for Dly it needed. Thx you for taking the time to making your Videos. :) George

I got a UA Apollo Twin QUAD to make it easier to monitor vocals when recording and it's easily the best move i've ever made. I usually go Advanced Audio cm87 > UA 610 > UA 1176 when recording, but I only monitor - not printing those. Then in the DAW my vocal chain is typically Melodyne> Waves API 550B> Waves 1176> UA LA2A> ProQ3 >Valhalla Delay/Room

U87, ELAM251 or U47 tube --> AMS Neve 1073 pre--> Tubetech CL1B ---> DAW

i just want to say as someone who has pretty much watched all o the epic tours etc etc
this was the next best thing
really looking forward to hearing about more recording/ mixing chains from the people you interview

[jamesrivera]

Wake up baby, new Andrew Masters just dropped

[pianoelliot]

Hi Andrew, great video. At 7:38 you’re saying „everybody uses the same stuff“. Would be cool to have a video about these standards :)

[djaszzydude]

HAHA YES !!! The Sennheiser mke-400 makes my life easier because I lend it to schools for audiovisual service. The microphone turns on by itself when the camera is turned on. It's a stupid proof or at least it's one less thing to think about and stay focused on the content. Perfect for an audiovisual loan counter. We have a lot of them here.

[fredericmailloux]

I don't have a go-chain. It really depends on the mood of the song. But here are the 2-3 options I usually go to. Mics: SM7B, WA87, Sontronics Orpheus. Pres: UA 610MKII, Great River, RND 511. No effects printed in daw, unless i'm using the 610. I will gently compress, but nothing heavy. Everything else is done in the box.

[FredMinville]

Interesting to hear how people do it even the pros have their own way of doing things…another cool video with great tidbits of knowledge

[brodymavesRealtor]

I know this is a huge ask - but it would be so amazing if you could do an elongated version/video of your first question. I'd love to learn more about settings of compressors etc for tracking into pro tools vs settings in the box.

[kevineisentraut]

As always... you're videos are amazing. Keep killin' it bro!!!

[tbluedogproject]

i love the channel! Insanely inspiring for a budding musician/sound engineer like me. A fan from Slovakia. Thanks!

[EmmoKhan]

We have a Shadow Hills ???
yeah sometimes !
ahahahaha

[Dane_Riazer]

I actually really like this video, I was already going to buy the 500 series rack with the never pre and this was a confirmation 🙌🏾

[facebeats]

Jeez man u on fire with the videos 🤤
Thanks so much for all the work u put in
Always a treat to see a new video!
Always something to learn..
Thanks so much man 🙏🏽❤️

[Drakenhax]

Best thing ive ever heard in my life was a Sonyc800g (2010 model)> 1073 > CL1B.

I was the mix engineer who recieved the stem and it was so incredible to mix I had to ask the studio engineer what he used. Absolutely crazy good.

[checkitout]

Great video .... always cool to see what the pro's are using. Me Warm Audio 1073 (no EQ model) - Audio-Scape 76F - Audio-Scape EQP-A (affordable chain and sounds fantastic) Can get that chain cheaper than a new CL1B! New mic of choice that doesn't break the bank for vocals I am using is the Universal Audio Bock 187. It's not cheap but it's very versatile.
