- This is a fascinating look at life on the other side of the fence. Tom Fuller, an incredibly in-demand record producer gives us a plethora of tips and tricks I (and you may) have never considered. Any questions for him please put them in the comments below... and what about that bass in the headphones thing, who knew eh?

I just remembered my old spring reverb in a case has never been used in my current studio environment. That's coming right out into the open for vocals this weekend. Brilliant interview, and super set up. Please do more of these, Christian.
I love how he keeps pulling out drawers with more and more gear. What a great video, full of incredible tips this. Thanks Christian.
Just discovered this series and it made my day. I’m watching everything, hope you guys can get around to more tours!
What a great guy. Loved the interview. Seeing how simple-yet-amazing his studio, workflow and work ethic is was inspiring. Loads to take in! Credit.
Always enjoy these studio tours, but as a spring reverb harlot I particularly enjoyed this one!
Great walk through, brilliant convo, Tom has a cool vibe, really enjoyed the video
Absolutely lovely video! Thanks for sharing Christian
Fantastic visit, Tom is a true sonic explorer! Love it.
Loved the vibe of the conversation and his studio.
Christian I truly love your videos here and on spitfire. For a non-media electronic musician, it is so fun to see the overlap. Keep it up!
Well done Chaps love these studio tours
Loved this one! Especially the tip about adjusting down the Bass in the monitoring mix, if the singer is flat. Very useful!
Fantastic interview. Thanks.
What a great studio! Amazing how there is so much gear in a pretty compact space.
I could easily live there lol
Great video! Thanks very much.
Excellent interview. I've also learned something: That small amplifier in the corner where Tom put his synths through and picks the sound up again with a micro. I of course know guitar-players - especially rock and hardrock - do it this way. But I've never thought someone would do it using VST plugins. But, hey, why not? I really need to get a cheap one yet and try it by myself.
As a side note: It's always refreshing to watch yourself and your enthusiasm when doing an interview.
Thank you so much again for this video! 🙂 👍 🤟

Top quality content, sweet work!
Tom is a hoot! Really enjoyable visit. I've thought about spring-verbs in the past (diy?) and maybe I'll give one a try now. I liked the idea of reamping synths too. I was glad to hear Tom's take on the Amphions. A modern day NS-10 is what I thought when I did some mixing on a pair. Not for me but I can see how they're magic for mixing.
Good to see you're doing well Tom, I remember interviewing for a crazy job in holborn and meeting you when we both first started out. For the Dimension D, hit in button 4 and that's all you need to do, no combinations in my trials. Try an acoustic through that, it will change your life.
wow, man. WOW! Super inspiring. Thanks Christian!
Awesome interview and Crib! Thanks Christian ;).
what a great guy. i bet its really fun to work with him. thx for that crib
Saw the cloud lifter....instantly ordered. been looking for something like that for my sm7. great vid
This one was fantastic
This is the best episode of Cribs, what a cool guy. Love the bit of advice at the end, it’s like you can have all the gear in the world, but you’ve got to look after yourself! I’ve been know to spend way too much time stuck inside in front of a computer, obsessing about minute details, when I should have been outside with the sun on my back.
I got a melanoma on my back from sun damage which was pretty serious. Be careful with that 🌞
@@ComposerMichaelDow that’s a good call, thank you! I tend to cover up pretty well and I’m never topless! But good call 👍
Fantastic stuff.
Great setup and interview!
Patrick Wolf is criminally underrated. One of our society's great injustices.
Lovely guy, really enthused, excellent thoughts, views and ideas, and that looks like a great studio, lots of really lovely gear.
lovely studio and interview by the way :)
beautiful setup, setup proper. love it.
Great video, so tempted to get a pair of those amphion speakers
Excellent interview!
This was fantastic.
this is amazing.
Great studio. Getting major gear envy!
I love 1 and 4 for the Dimension D. At the studio, it stays as the preset.
Really enjoyed this, such a great video. Curious to know what was his typical recording chain for the synths that were all coming up on the Audient when printing to PT..
Tom, you absolute gent. Hope you are well ❤️
Thank you Christian and Tom :-)
As amazing as this content is for some people, it makes me feel completely inadequate with my little 2016 Mac Air, Behringer interface, and Rokit5 Monitors.. Still awesome though.
Would love to see more of the projects and a rundown of the process which would inevitably take you around the studio anyway!
Yay SM7/Cloudlifter Love.
Really into this video, it made me mic my amp and fiddle with my guitar all night long, with a drum machine routed through a zoia pedal. ; ]
Very interesting insight
Is that MS 20 the mini version or the full sized? I'm hearing that the mini is darn near every bit as good, any take on this?
19:57 big tip there thanks. i also read somewhere (was it in sylvia masseys book) that putting a bit of the vocalist in the room monitors can help with tuning so it's not all in the cans? someone correct me if ive misremembered that but thats roughly what i recall. ive only ever been producer around vocalists so never done the vox or the engineering so yeh
Cenzo is great. He mixed a couple of tracks I produced for a record 🙌
La Frog sorry I let the side down there didn’t I.
12:00 CAPI VP28's were built for Tom by me (Matt Kent). If anyone out there wants any CAPI built, you can join Matt Kent's 500 Series Build Group on facebook. Cheers, Matt

Science!
'Science' - Always the best word to end on, whatever proclamation you make! Been a recent favourite too! lol! :-)
Lovely fellow
What an insanely beautiful space?!
Hard drives stored directly under the guitar amp?
Yay 1202!
16:04 what spring reverb is that?
Many thanks in advance.
Amazing how do you get to grip with it all in a fast changing world
the auto-adaptation from your fisheye lens to flat makes me seasick...but still always great videos
Its the autofocus vs the image stabilisation. I have thought of using a gimbal but it would make for a much bigger bag to haul around with me!
Love this studio setup. Is that an Audient Console? I like how you have everything ready to go and certain things on aux sends. Would love to know more about the patching
Audient Zen 16 MPMF console.
They discontinued it unfortunately! No more flying faders...
@@TommyFullzy No way! That's unfortunate, missing the ASP 8024 desk from the old studio I worked in so I was hoping to find another slightly cheaper variant.
Thanks for the reply! So you use the Zen mostly for monitoring and tracking purposes? Just wondering how you have all the gear summed so that you can play anything and it’s in the monitors and ready to record..
@@Elgusto82 also very curious about this!
whats the thing he mentioned at 10:04 (sitting above the ms20)?? 'dopefler ' or something lol
brandon spent a lot of time on his back under the desk with me lool
I like your Creative Cribs video Christian ! , i hope you regularly do new owns ,, its very motivating an enjoy the gear and record talk ,an the differences in personalities from all the guys and girls in the composing field where we're in (#_*) maybe your the best with thee kinda vids here on CZcams,,, very gear fetish
Such a cool guy! (And of course you Christian too) Many thanks
UAD amp sims,theres a couple that are worth checking..
@Tom, dimension d buttons 1&4 together. Great on acoustics.
hey christian, sorry, im sure you have saw this question from me multiple times...
but could you please make a video about mic positions? im not really sure how to use them in the right way...
thanks!
I'll have a go.... (although I just use the tree usually!).
@@TheCrowHillCo ok thanks!
this is because im considering buying between the SSS or BBCSO. it seems like the BBCSO has a ton of mic positions... so wondering if i will end up using all of them!
@@samuelgl I've asked PT to do a "how to get the best out of..." and think the first will be mic positions.
@@TheCrowHillCo good, thanks!
@2:30 one funniest random things I've seen in a while.. In his voice "shout out to my father." then paws 🐾 at the soundproofing. 😂
So many wise words.. especially that getting out and move your bum regularly! ^_^
@Christian Henson Music @5:55 Which piece of outboard kit is he talking about here?
they're little lunch box MAAG's...fantastic/unique eq...more like an effect eq as apposed to a clinical eq..little beasts!!!!!!cheers..TY froms.oz
@@tymiklic6463 thank you
What was the valve Spring Reverb
I couldn’t believe it when I had tried my hands at doing some leather crafting, and I had made a sort of half goggle eye protector, only to be offered a whole lot more money than I would have ever thought it was worth. I was asked about my sourcing of this leather, which I had literally cut off of some furniture outside on the side of the street, along someone’s boulevard. Since I had literally re-re-used and re-purposed the leather, this made it somehow doubly desirable, and very much more valuable. Thanks for sharing!!
great for drums
Drums are great.
what is the name of that amp at 3:55 I would really like to know...
It’s a Tru Voice Little Giant (Selmer branded if you get a later 60s one I believe) 👌🏻
@@TommyFullzy Thank you so much for your response. It means a lot that you came back to answer this question, now the search for it begins... :D
No love for the Pocket Operators. Looks like he has three of them. Which ones? PO-32 Tonic paired with SoundCharge's microtonic software is highly recommended.
This guy has a great taste in gear. He's like me where he needs to hear a big difference to justify the purchase.
It's possible to sync the Juno LFO from a MicroBrute?
Sorry Microbrute digital Lfo CV to Juno CVF control to control the filter! Muddled my words on camera :). I think maybe you can control the LFO with one of the mods though?
@@TommyFullzy Thanks Tom - I'm certainly going to try that (as I have Juno 60 and MicroBrute). Excellent studio tour and discussion in the video. I'm going to have to re-watch it as there was a lot of detail, especially about the use of external hardware, routing, patching and committing as audio. After watching, it confirms my long-held feeling that I really should get an MS-20, especially for drums!
You really should sample this... 18:29 :-P
Is there anything he doesnt put drums through? Why the hell not?
was thinking the same thing lol
3'58" - deodorant. More studios should have it ;)
I thought this was masterchef
WOW - an Echolette - damn... mine is broken :( - Tipp: cover the "delete"-head with alu-foil .....
sidenote: when inn "wet mode" you actually have a mixed wet/dry output on the 3rd input (because its an input and output at the same time), and the completely wet signal on the main output to the right.
@@jokkeloco yep.... we used it for sound-design as well, a long time before sounds-design became its own term.... every new instrument with its own tempo - Capstan enlarged with Duct-tape to speed it up... Oh, how I miss those days.... Will fix that bloody thing next weekend :D
@@wizzNarts Haha! I believe you. Sounds amazing, but could you elaborate on the "covering the delete-head with alu-foil"-thing? What purpose would this have?
Thanks I never knew this! Always learning...
@@jokkeloco sure, sorry... wasn't clear anough and also I am not sure how the "Löschkopf" is called in English... :D When you tape alu foil over the delete/erase/cancellation head the echolette tape echo keeps recording what ever goes in. After a while you get a homogenous morphing soundscape with a pretty cool tape saturation.
Then send this signal thru a Moog or Doepfer...
It takes a while to figure out how to influence the sound. But yeah, we did some very evil stuff ~lol~
thought they were alone until 15:06
A lot of music producers sound so posh these days. Don’t know if it’s just a misperception but a lot of these cribs videos seem to feature people who are pretty clearly of an upper middle class sort of persuasion. Not that it should really matter, but I wonder whether lower class people are getting priced out of the cost of entry into music in this era. It’s the same with actual bands too - surprising number are all from private school backgrounds nowadays. Anyway, great video.
beautiful place to light a joint & start playin...
The night shift music production would suit my brother and I. That's when our mind's come to life! One day we'll get out of this sleepy little town hopefully. Hopefully one day some top producers will want to hear 10 years of projects on an archive, never been released to the public, because most of them need A-List vox on written by other musicians (top liners.) My brother was amazed at one hook I came out with last week (plenty where that came from), produced with layers, sounds mainstream, pop.
Boys and their toys
you culd make mutch shorter video if you just ask him what u dont have
You're 12 year old advice speaks to me HAHA
yada yada (points to expensive gear) and yada (points to mor expensive gear). all right, we just take your word for it.
im shocked you ask what your going to use the tg1 for ....come on mate really?
Interviewer: I have TG1 and I never used it! On what do you use it? --> Really?!?! Are you serious? You even know how to use tools in a proper way? You have that much cash and just getting your tools on a pile and don't use it? Lucky you. I don't understand you but hey, everyone has it's own preropgatives.
Sir George Martin had 1/100th of this capability, yet he produced some of the best songs ever. What's been produced out of this studio exactly ?
I go visit a lot of site its always the same no participation and its OK because its what we choose to do We have over saturate the music scene on Facebook Its failing us (supposed) composers I guess I am like all of you begging for an audience and its starting to irritate my soul Why don't we just do what we do and have a nonchalant attitude about are music But in my case its not working I love being visited I love when someone like's what I do I AM A STUPID egoic facebook junky Its ridiculous the ĉreators of plugins,vst daws creators are laughing all the way to the bank I am ,being use by my own love of music I created my own angel sand devis like a stupid religious cult
