What are your thoughts on vinyl remastering in the modern day?

@shawnwait6207 10 месяцев назад

Hard to say really. Depends on the medium it's being re released on I suppose .. wouldn't make much sense to remaster a vinyl only to be heard on Spotify...

@leonidmakogon3673 10 месяцев назад

this is nothing! ... you haven't said anything useful for people here!... Better yet, tell us how to become very rich! have a lot of money and buy your own premises and your studio! and I will make music and sound and melodies - millions of times better - than all of you put together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is what people really need! so far - I haven’t heard a single beautiful melody or music at all! Leonid M from Germany

Vinyl never dies P.s. the little mackie mixer is still in use in my portable recording rig

@vadz 10 месяцев назад

Nice to have some 90s electronic albums remasters on vinyl meeting modern standards, with more density, fat and shine. With less errors, better signal to noise ratio, louder and cleaner. Not all of them really do the job to improve the quality and listening experience, but it looks like things getting better with more re-presses and re-masters nowadays.

@terrytees 10 месяцев назад

Worst idea ever, and thats coming from a man with thousands of vinyl records his collection. Why master a mix thats not been done solely for the purpose of vinyl ? Fine if thats the only medium being used but who does that these days. Don't get me wrong it's my favourite format for so many reason's beside the sound, it's a tangible product that makes the listener feel more connected to art and in turn it could be argued that it made the artist deliver a more cohesive product. Reality is music isn't consumed in the same way it used to be, as a consequence is very different.

@Terenzio94 10 месяцев назад

the latest album " i will be found " from my band "BBF" (Brunetti Banelli Forgiarini) was mastered by Sean Magee , and for us was a big pleasure and an Honor!

@Frazer777 10 месяцев назад

I've watched a few videos by mastering engineers and more than once I've thought: '.. that sounds like a lot of pretentious bs they're talking about there...' And then I hear Sean, a mastering engineer at Abbey Road, confirming those thoughts with his no-nonsense approach to things. There's a lot of snake-oil nonsense wherever there is money to be made and it's rare to hear someone call it out as such. Top job.

Dear Sean, I was so lucky to have you on my first LP. Merci beaucoup pour ton travail et ta gentillesse

Love the work he did on the Rush catalog a few years ago. The best Rush has ever sounded!!!

@Producelikeapro 10 месяцев назад

No doubt!

@nickwallette6201 10 месяцев назад

Huh. I'm curious about that. In general, I loathe remasters. Music sounded better in the 80s to mid-late 90s than it ever has since, so any time I see "remastered," I assume that just means "compressed all the dynamics out of it, smiley-face EQ'd it, and ran it through a limiter until it looked like a rectangle in Pro Tools." I bought the Sector box sets for the surround mixes. Some of the CD versions sound OK, particularly the earliest stuff. But I knew within the first 30 seconds of Power Windows that it had been utterly ruined by the remaster. I know the sound of that album like the scent of my partner. When you crush an album with that much reverb, it does not end well. And frankly, what needed remastering? The original sounded _just fine_ the way it was! So I'm skeptical that any updated release has any room for improvement, but this guy seems rather sparse on BS. If the labels didn't ask for something blasphemous, maybe they're worth a listen.

@michaelprice1216 10 месяцев назад

His work on Exit Stage Left was well done. He made a 15ips analog cutting tape from the original Umatic digital master. Added a bit more to the soundstage. Been listening to that album for40 years in various formats. Even 8 track. Prefer Sean's cut of the lp.

@CrackedAnalogue 10 месяцев назад

I had some vinyl records mastered by Sean Magee (and also Steve Rooke for CD) at Abbey Road many years ago. Each time, I attended in person and was massively impressed and will never forget the amount of care they took with my particular project. I remember both as being incredibly genuine, fastidious people and consummate professionals. Seans approach to cutting was meticulous and he did an excellent job. I found him to be an unforgettably great guy and we talked a lot about music in general, as well as the details of mastering. He even introduced me to the music of Sun Ra. Nothing was ever too much trouble and he was also happy to facilitate etching some messages into each side of both records he cut for me. He tolerated all of my probably endless questions and explained everything that I asked of him very clearly. As someone who spends long periods outside of the UK, I think it’s pretty amazing to have the option to use someone of this man's experience no matter where you are in the world and hope you are doing great Sean. I’ll always be grateful to both you and Steve for your enthusiasm, care and attention to detail. It’s great to see you again albeit via RU-vid/Produce Like A Pro from all the way over here in India. Thanks to you and Warren for taking the time to record this interview.

What a refreshing bloke compared to other tubers who are shouty , over excitable glorified sales people who should be on the shopping channel! Warren also not in that later category. Good story Sean and god bless the dole.

@aussie_philosopher8079 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for saying it how it is. Clients always ask things he mentioned and it's best to get all the mix stuff spot on and then take it to the mastering engineer. Great mix, greater master.

@spinbaq_music 10 месяцев назад

What a nice unpretentious guy! I'd love to have a few pints in the pub with him, I bet he's got some great stories.

@sassulusmagnus 10 месяцев назад

Do I see a humble little Avantone Mix Cube in the center/mono position? Good enough for EMI Abbey Road, good enough for the rest of us mortals.

@nickwallette6201 10 месяцев назад

Uhh... I dunno about "good"... The whole point is for it to be the Peasant Cam version of the mix. :-) At this point, it should probably be an Amazon Echo Dot though.

@Producelikeapro 10 месяцев назад

Thanks ever so much for that observation!

@sassulusmagnus 9 месяцев назад

@@nickwallette6201 ... or maybe a cheap set of earbuds? The Avantone Mix Cube does provide a pretty good picture of what's going on in the midrange, hence the presence of these little boxes in so many studios. But yes, definitely not your first choice if you need to hear the full mix.😁

@muziqfreek 10 месяцев назад

what are the red power sockets for???

@gilesmoss5860 10 месяцев назад

Probably '24h power'. Studios (recording, TV, radio) full of analogue electronics used to be turned off when not in use by a switch by the door - the idea being that the last person out would kill the power. Some kit didn't like having its power taken away like this so the red sockets would NOT be switched off in this manner, they'd stay on all the time hence '24h power'. Powering off like this is not so fashionable nowadays thanks to the prevalence of computers.

@Producelikeapro 9 месяцев назад

My guess is that they are either clean isolated power or not clean isolated! The colour is to indicate what or what not to use!

@keithstares 10 месяцев назад

Hey Warren, hope you enjoyed your trip to abbey road, if you get 2 minutes I'd love to hear your thoughts on my song 'rejected' on my channel, its a bit of a teen angsty song i wrote when i was a teenager but i wrote and played every part, and its a jump up in production since i got an apollo interface compared to some of my other recordings on there, and also since i got a decent ish condenser mic and some proper monitor speakers. Also since I started taking lessons from you my friend! I know i still have a ways to go, but I have a lot of original material to get through so practice makes perfect I suppose! Unfortunately im currently having to produce stuff on my phone using an iRig interface and Audio Evolution mobile or FL Mobile due to my laptop dying a death! Is it actually possible to get a decent recording using a phone or should I just wait until i can afford a half decent laptop at some point. Id love to know your opinion on these phone apps from a production standpoint? Is it possible to get a decent sound using these apps and an iRig or should I just focus on getting a new laptop/computer so i can use my apollo and some decent UA2 plugins? It's just not easy to get those kind of pennies together and heartbreaking when you have a decent setup with the rest of the chain but the hub of your studio just gives up the ghost lol. Let me know if it is seriously worth persevering with the mobile phone setup in the meantime. I'd love your opinion. Music production is the only thing that takes my mind off some rather serious health problems so I'm hoping you will say the mobile option is worth pursuing! Cheers bro!

@AnodyneHipsterInfluencer 10 месяцев назад

Welp, that's that then. Certainly a matter of fact gentleman. Anyhow, hope that another lacquer manufacturer steps up or the one we've got left stands the test of time. The world has gotten disappointing enough already. Imagine, just when you're getting people hip to the quality and experience of listening to music on vinyl, they can't be made any more? Awful to even consider.

@Producelikeapro 9 месяцев назад

It would definitely be great if there were more people in this space
