    since there is no Guitar Center employee hovering in the background, I'm guessing this is his studio. Really shows how far he came from the basement studio interview he gave in 89/90 I just watched. RIP Steve, what a great communicator and artist... love how he keeps throwing himself on screen, ha ha ha.

    When he wrote, back in the days, the terms for working with nirvana (on paper) you could tell that he was an amazing guy. It felt like some poetry because it was so honest, direct and amicable. Rest easy, Steve. Maybe its time for me to learn about recording, so here we go.

    Can anyone run through the using guitar pedals with a mic and using phantom power, i got lost there do you connect the output of your interface with phantom power engaged to the first di box?

    Kinda like tuning a guitar with a digital tuner. Anybody else fine tune with ear afterwards even though the tuner tells you it's perfectly in tune but you don't like it?

    • @ElectricalAudioOfficial
      @ElectricalAudioOfficial Před 5 dny

      That's probably temperament. Well-tempered vs Equal-tempered. We generally use equal so that our instruments are mostly in tune in a variety of keys and across a variety of intervals, but individual intervals will be slightly out of tune.

    I guess most of us are recording into a DAW, I would usually bust go into the tracks zoom in and align the recorded material there.

      While that is a fair point, you simply cannot bake tape at 130 degrees Celsius in a food dehydrator.

    Thanks Greg for this video. I was Studer technician in the early 80th in Vienna / Austria. That was the time of the A80 machines with 2, 16 and 24 tracks. Makes me philosophical to think we can record more tracks with a cellphone today. Btw: Studers first digital tape machine’s weight was nearly 1000 kg and consumed 1000w from the grid.
