Recording Studios In Your Home
I got so much response on my channel and a lot of questions referring to the equipment I use, how Midi works, how Superior Drummer sounds like…
Well, I thought that this clip would serve best to help newbies just like I were not even two years ago. Have fun! If you are especially interested in only the sounds…skip to 7:00.

I have a room available for the equipment but it not a dedicated room, so the equipment would need to be storable. I’d like artist to able to record and burn their art to cd or upload as podcasts
if that is the case go for a software based recording machine.. it dosen’t take alot of space..
i want to go all out in it, the price doesn’t matter i just need to know all the equipment i need. thanks!
The best equipment in the world won’t help recording live if you don’t have a sound-proof recording studio. For that you will need to do extensive building using a lot of sound insulation and techniques that isolate the room from all other noise and vibration in the building. That is just to start. Then you need to surface the inside of the room to eliminate echos and to absorb all the sound that the equipment in the room will make.
This is not easy nor is it inexpensive to do. You have a lot of research to do!
I’m starting a business and need to buy some dependable equipment. I need to know what the best is for lighting etc….
As far as entry level kits, I would say Alien Bees or Calumet Genesis. I’ve owned both and both are good products.
Genesis:
Pros:
More consistent in color temp and exposure across the power range than Alien Bees.
Cheaper than Alien Bees.
Accepts elinchrom brand modifiers.
Cons:
Won’t work with all radio triggers. Both my elinchrom skyports and Alien Bee Cybersyncs would not work well with these lights.
Powering more than one light on location is a PITA. Plugging two into a Vagabond or Xplorer battery pack makes them fire at random and beep like mad (personal experience).
SLOW recycle times
LONG flash duration (no freezing fast motion)
Alien Bees:
Pros:
Built better than the Calumet Genesis lights.
Analog power adjustment (which I prefer, but that’s subjective).
Can run two lights from one battery pack with no problems.
Respond well to multiple brands of radio triggers.
Customer service from PCB is second to none.
Much faster recycle times.
Cons:
Color temp can vary noticeably when you go from full power to below half.
Output isn’t always consistent. It can jump up/down 1/3-2/3 of a stop between pops.
More expensive than Genesis.
All that out of the way, as I said, I’ve owned both. I sold the Genesis’ lights to get my Bees. The main reason was I do a lot of location work and at the time there wasn’t (and still isn’t to my knowledge) a solid one unit solution to power two Genesis strobes. That paired with the slow recycle times of the Genesis (6 seconds at full power when used with a battery pack) made the cons of the Bees seem minor. I can work around the Bee’s shortcomings before I could work around those of the Genesis kits.
I never had either system fail on me so I would say both are reliable.
I don’t have enough hands on to speak to the other systems that are out of the entry level range. You have hensl, elinchrom, profoto, broncolor….all great lights, 100% consistency, 100% reliable…but all that comes at a price to match the quality.
Good luck!
I have a high res webcam on my desk PC & have a portable green screen disc placed behind my desk chair. Is it possible with, say just a couple of desk lamps, to do chromakey videos whilst sat at my desk? The only tutorial videos i see of green screen filming are those in either large studios or with at least 10ft x 6ft of space.
It depends how large an object you want to chromakey. Consider that you want to keep shadows off the chromakey as well.
If you are planning to edit this later with PROFESSIONAL editing software, there is a cheat you can do. You don’t have to show the entire green screen in the picture. You can show part of the image, then when editing, move the image 2-dimentionally and add more green to make up for the missing portion (this is called adding a garbage matte) . But you do need enough green to completely surround your subject.
Yes, a couple of desk lamps will work. Make sure the shadows from the lamps aren’t on the greenscreen. Move them over to the sides, one on each side (this is called crosslighting), and put them a good 45-60 degrees away from the camera.
