In this video, I'm sharing with you the top 5 things I wish I knew BEFORE opening my recording studio. From equipment selection to business planning, I cover everything you need to know before starting your own recording studio.
If you're considering opening a recording studio, be sure to watch this video! In it, I'll share with you everything I wish I knew about getting started, from equipment selection to business planning. By the end of this video, you'll have some of the info I wish I had to make the best decision for your studio!
Marketing yourself as a small business is OVERRATED. Treat your customers and clients like royalty and they will evangelize for you. Buy gear that inspires you. It's easy to just collect crap and let it pile around the recording studio. Sometimes buying the more expensive item IS the right answer.... file management is HUGE... get it right when you first start. Most of all... don't lose yourself in the business. It's important as a small business owner to be who you are. Be creative. Do the things that bring you joy. These things contribute to a financially successful business.

I can certainly say that the final statement was by far the most accurate! It is so easy to lose yourself in the business. Taking time for yourself becomes optional, which becomes nonexistent because of the monetary gain. I've learned to take time for myself and start to prioritize my happiness within. You will feel a lot better and that will ultimately make us better engineers!

Your last point hit home big time. And I appreciate you for saying it. At age 15 I knew I wanted to be a record producer and at age 33 it’s ~25% of what I do. The remaining 75% is live sound and just straight up recording engineering gigs. Which I love too, and it pays well, but I’ve often chosen the paycheck due to financial needs. I will say that these past two years have been the first time I am completely full time with music. So there’s progress. But hearing that last point really inspires me to get back into the initial spark, which is creation. I deeply appreciate that. Thank you.

Awesome stuff, I have a dream to mix local artists, here where I live. But I am starting to think it might be silly for me to think about. Right now I have a very good paying job, but in the next 10 years (hopefully) I will be done. I just don't know if I will be relivent. My desire is there I record and mix as much as possible, but I don't have a local mentor to bounce stuff off of and to see where I need to improve. It can be very frustrating. I love to see the people who have done it, and made it work that is inspiring. Thanks for the great videos.

Tough gig. Ran a production studio for 10 years, and it's a grind and staying in the black is challenging. Best advice here is definitely focus on making your clients ecstatic and leveraging word of mouth. Definitely had meh and dicey "walk-in" clients and clients from marketing angles.... but also got some winners and opened new communities. Best advice about being a recording engineer: "If you can do anything else, you should" Best advice about the music industry: "The best way to make a million in the music insdustry is to start with two million." ;)

Plus they send me catalogues every couple of months with candy so you can go wrong.

A Nespresso type of thing or a one that makes coffee from freshly grinded beans? I hear some guys talking about the importance of a coffee machine in a studio. And once one is going down that caffeine hole: should a froth machine also be mandatory present? Or what about a freezer for ice coffee? Anyway, great hearing your thoughts. Agree especially on the file management thing. A good logical hierarchy system makes working generally more pleasant and effective in any field.

Does it make sense to rent a small space for a project studio and buy nice gear like an Apollo X8p, used MAC, a couple of mikes, good amps, cabs, a good drumset, midi keyboard synth etc to rent it out? It would be a small space for tracking, not a professional studio. I can get a 10-15 m2 space for 100-200 USD per month. The point would be so the gear would be partially paying itself off, I don't really expect much profit.

Question on the "buy for the future" point ... do you find any learning value with cheap gear? As in, it helps you learn to work with limitations and imperfections.

That’s the Fair point. I will say it’s hard to find cheap gear that isn’t modeled after something else finding a super discount “1176“ isn’t necessarily going to do the thing on 1176 does. Sometimes that doesn’t matter… Sometimes it might be better just to use a good plug-in emulation at that point, because the other side if you’re looking at cheap outboard gear, your conversion Hass to be up to snuff now if you’re talking cheap interfaces that becomes a harder discussion. There are tons of really good cheap interfaces, but it’s more about scalability to me. Not sure if I answer the question at all. Lol.

@@RecordingStudioLoser you make really good points. Having experienced cheap outboard, I agree generally plugins are better value especially because of recall. They can still be useful at trashy character. What I was imagining was more along the lines of mics. You might learn eg, can 57s be useful as overheads? Or this 20 dollar mic I have on snare... Sure I'll replace it with an i5, but maybe it's then useful as a mic for an extra snare, or lofi.

@@RecordingStudioLoser And actually that reminds me of me learning the wrong lesson back when I first started recording. I used a cheap electret plugged into an 1/8" jack on a consumer sound card to try to record electric guitar. Sounded horrible so I concluded recording electric guitar with mics was inherently mega hard. Years later and I realize it's not actually that bad.

It's about the single worst investment one could think of. Very very expensive, on going maintenance/uprades and high risk. I worked at many studio that shut down.

@RecordingStudioLoser Жыл бұрын
Ive worked at many that haven’t shut down. Including my own. It may someday. But everything is paid for. If you look at it as just that, an investment it’s difficult make a mistake. those who max out credit cards to get fancy gear and don’t know how to use it or have a solid plan to pay it off who get in trouble.

I use focal twin 6. And the sub 6. I know those speakers really well. Whatever they are pair them with sonorworks (sound Id) If you do vocals I highly Recomened a distressor. All my gear. I use that the most.
