Yeah routing and mapping out your studio setup takes time and training. Nice one Sean.

[JakeRegala]

nice routing and you made me smile seeing that youre a marian devotee, God bless

[DjjkrisRTC]

Damn dude I just bought my interface and was wondering for the last few days how the heck am I gonna hook it up. You are a mind reader🤜🏽

[Darksagan]

I havent even watched the video yet but insane timing. I just bought my first 500 series module and was wondering how do I connect everything via AI. Nice.

[RayoBeatz]

the rosemary is the key to this setup it makes the audio quality better.

Question Sean, is there any particular reason you have the subwoofer setup in the back room corner rather than underneath the desk by the other monitors?

[PLPOMH]

Hey buddy, awesome video as usual! I have the RME UFX + And the same sub as you... I constantly have to go under my desk and turn it down/up when tracking/mixing. Any way you can explain how to set the sub up in TotalFX? That would be an absolute HUGE help... Appreciate it, my dude!

[natanyofsho]

mmm so you're doing analog summing through the SSL Fusion.

[dja.d]

I'm looking into going analogue but to start out can I use something like an SSL fusion going to an audio interface like the SSL 2+ ? I am aware you'd need 2 going out and 2 going in. Any recommendations on audio interface and wiring?

Hey I’m trying to figure out why I’m unable to use all 3 of my outboard gear in PT at the same time as insert?

[RonDaniel]

Good video! Quick question? What's the best way to power up 2 monitors at the same time? I have 2 monitors plugged into a Furman m-8x strip currently.

[sinslap_]

In ur opinion which is better 500 series gear or regular ?

[shubhshinde]

I also have babyfacepro fs, and the direct monitoring ( total mix fx) is not that loud enough, and it sounds harsh.Mic (tlm 102) has a little siblance. After recording, vocals sound good but very harsh while recording, so can you please tell me what should I do?

[thomasshugar]

Besides the Mogami, for vocals...what are the other types of expensive cables that you are using?

[callumclarke]

Hi the tc clarity spectrum analysiser you use is there any other recommendations as there’s not many for sale so is there a good alternative

[proteus]

I made the mistake of buying cubase pro, unfortunately it's buggy and the support takes literally weeks. Still not able to use, wish I purchased Logic, I should have took my gut feeling at the start.

[higherthinkingmusic]

When you are tracking your vocals for your own songs that you plan on releasing, do you use the vocal booth or do you do it like in some of your other videos just right at your desk?

[astrokeneda]

Who just has a USB mike and that's IT ?!!!

[obzocrc]

hi, where I can ask you something or send mail?
I got specific question man, ofc If here is any chance. thxx
