Happy Monday everyone! We have something slightly different to start this week. This is a video I've made a little while ago about music career, video and audio production and the software that we use. Hope you find this useful and informative!
I'm going to study at RWCMD, are there any book you could recommend for technique, besides the Arban cornet method.
That was a really good video. I loved the insight. I've been following for years but It's nice to see more of where you came from. I think you might have just inspired me to start recording too!
Best 'How I Got Here' I've seen. Thank you!
Great video! A lot of people I talk to suggest ribbon microphones: what are your thoughts on those?
Thank you for sharing your journey! As for recordings, there's a ton of free information on software and audio equipment. However, I think what's more valuable (and extremely rare, almost non-existent) is the execution – mic positioning, room size/treatment, EQ curves, compressor settings, etc. that are applicable to brass instruments.
This reminds me of your older videos, love to see these again 🙂
Started at 7?? Gosh your meant to be a professional
This was a great overview to help me understand where you are coming from and what your goals are now and what may be coming in the future. If I have one criticism , it would be you should choose microphones for your Euphonium that open up the sound more. Some times I find very difficult while following with the score in view understanding why notes being played that are to be slurred cant be distinguished from notes that are to be soft tongued versus notes that should be separated more. I don't know if the issue is because of you tube, your mic choice , your technique, the acoustics of the recording space, or your interpretation of the music. I have continually voiced my concerns about the trombone player, too. What I am look for I guess is the added clarity achieved by Steven and Missa Mead recordings. Being an old analog guy some times I feel I am hearing to much processing between your instrument and my speakers, but most of that I blame on You Tube. Good luck and keep up the excellent work. I dis liked SM 57 mics when they were introduced and continue to dislike them. I love KM 84, 86, AKG 414's , Telefunken 250's and Nueumann and Telefunken Stereo mics. Once in a while a Crown PZM mic is the perfect answer, too. For an everything Mic give me AKG 451 with all the different capsules from short shot gun to omni. Then sometimes Ribbon mics are really what is needed. Listen to Enoch Light and the Light Brigade on Command LP's some time to hear the clarity I am after. Or to Sheffield recordings using just one AKG Stereo mic for Swing Band group and full Symphonic recordings. Dallas Wind Symphony has to much low bass, Mnozil Brass CD's have the right sound, too. I know you are familiar with Grime Thorpe, Sellars, Black Dyke Mills Brass bands and they get the sound right on Chandos.
Algirdas – This is MAGNIFICENT. What a story! It took me way back to when I first started watching you. As you went through the video, I remembered fondly your first instructional videos, which I, as an amateur euphoniumist, was so happy to see. The journey to the multi-track, multi-cam recordings with sheet music, and the accompanying addition of repertoire was exciting. I really enjoyed watching this journey with you, and hope you keep on reaching for your stars! I'll be watching and loving it!
Wow man this is cool to see i am from the netherlands and i am also a euph player and i started in a amateur brass band
I love the channel keep up the good work!
