    I’ll take Warren’s recommendation any day for a great value studio hardware :
    1) Audient Interface - (my choice be iD24, the fact that you can insert external gear, and line input option straight to A-D converter bypassing the Audient mic pres)
    2) Kali Audio LP6, Presonus Studio Monitor (my pick would be Eris Studio 8 or Eris Pro series coaxial series), Audio Technica Headphones (My choices would be ATH M40x and ATH R70x)
    3) Lewitt 640 TS, Lauten Audio Atlantis FC-387, Neumann U47 FET or Warm Audio WA-47 similarly quite good too. Of course Shure SM57 too, can’t go wrong with that.
    Also mportant too in investing to flatten-out studio room as much we could spend on the hardware/software wise. Sweetwater has all the said equipment , check them out and read the reviews 😎

IÂŽm a member of Produce Lika Pro and for me itÂŽs been great. I was looking for the best place to learn and did a lot of research, and iÂŽm now a lifetime member. These feedback fridays where you are getting feedback on your mixes is great. Sometimes listening and learn is your best friend.

    I'd say if you don't have acoustics then buy that... then if you do upgrade that and your monitors... you can do much more will much less if you can hear everything... being able to hear everything anything does with zero guessing steps you up so much more than super expensive analogue... although, you will need a clean conversion to monitor, and there is the interface upgrade lol

    Excellent video. I like Warren very much. He is a good guy and has made some excellent videos. It is unfortunate that he has now fallen on hard times. Nevertheless, he had a great positive attitude. The failure of Spitfire Studio would have destroyed many people. Not Warren. With a straight face and no apologies he now has a tiny bedroom home studio where he makes some nice, well produced YT videos. A strong and talented guy. I wish him the best and will continue to look for his videos.

    Being UNCOMPROMISING is a major coin-toss to be honest. On one hand, you have artists like Prince, and many others of course, who are simply extraordinary. They can afford to be uncompromising...even from the get-go. On the other hand, there are A LOT of people who THINK they're extraordinary...but their success would have NEVER happened if they hadn't compromised and listened to labels, producers, writers, arrangers, etc. The trick is knowing when, where, and what to compromise or not. And that's akin to beating the house in a casino! HAHA!
