An actual documentary of a recording session, this innovative video series puts the viewer right at the console!
Watch while we record two songs, with five Nashville session musicians. The video puts you in the picture as second engineer - documenting every microphone position, every EQ & compression setting....all the way from tracking to the final mix.
To make things even more interesting, we will record the two songs with radically different signal chains.
We use an arsenal of gear to capture song #1. Over $37,000 in microphones, preamps, and outboard gear!
With the home recording studio in mind, we record song #2 with low cost dynamic microphones and a popular 16 channel mixer.

The video series enables you to:
1. Compare the two songs - decide if the "expensive" gear sounds that much better.
2. Analyze Russ's creative choices - You watched every move he made; now listen to the results.
3. Take charge of the tracks - manipulate, or even re-record them to your liking. You are in control of the production now.
4. Re-mix the songs - The record company needs a radio remix.... and you're the first call. Go for it!
