Let's record with a Tascam Portastudio 424, a DBX 118 compressor, and the new Warm Audio Mutation Phasor pedal. We'll get parallel compression, cassette tape saturation, and all around analog tape recorder FUN. Poor man's DBX 160!

Killer bass sound in the mix, cuts through beautifully. The phaser on drums is just amazing.

@travisraab Год назад

The mpx is incredible on bass. I've used it on every bass track since getting it.

@SuperdangerStudios Год назад

Very cool song. Loved that phaser on the drums. Thanks for showcasing your workflow. Feels really familiar haha

Thanks! 🙏

Travis this this is my fav snare tone yet. And I watched tape tactics. Partial to phaser I guess

@travisraab Год назад

Why don't I send an email to everyone who got Tape recording tactics explaining how to get this tone! Thanks so much for grabbing the course!

@samfowles4276 Год назад

Hey Travis! The results of this session are truly impressive! I own a 424 and I’m interested in Tape Recording Tactics. Will your tutorials on the 388 translate well to the 424? I love Dungen, the first Tame Impala record, and kooky lo-fi vibes. I want to grow my skills in getting those kinds of sounds!

@travisraab Год назад

Hi Sam! I'm glad you like how this track turned out. Someone who got TRT said they enjoyed it, so I sent out an email to everyone who bought that course, explaining step by step how to recreate this sound. I try to keep adding value to TRT, and there are a lot of new bonuses that weren't there when it first came out. It's not just for 388 people. It's for anyone with a tape recorder, or even people that don't have any outboard gear and they want to recreate that sound of tape inside their DAW. There are some cassette specific sections.

@Disregardedinc Год назад

Man I want to get a tape machine but I don’t even have an audio interface, I just use headphones, and midi keyboard, and plugins. I’m very inspired by Boards of Canada who use analog synths and tape machines and that sounds amazing. I hope I may one day be able to afford all the shit but it’s just currently not in my budget

@travisraab Год назад

just keeping using the stuff you have. gear is a waste of time

@alessandrom1996 11 месяцев назад

Hi there, I've been following you for a while and I can see you can find your way around problems when it comes to tape decks. I have this tascam 464 that I just got and I can't record direct. It records fine in RLRL but when I switch to direct I can see 1234 on the display, but the meters go silent, while I can still hear the sound I'm playing. I've heard it might be the sync switch, but that didn't work for me. I hope you can help, thank you! Keep it up! :)

Hello travis ! Thank you for your videos, i live in France and i buy recently a 118 dbx, i have a volt 276 UA, a mixer yamaha model RM 804 and a fostex r8, HOW did i plug the dbx ? Thank you

@travisraab 9 месяцев назад

does your mixer have an effects loop are effects send? if so, plug it through that. if you not, you'll have to daisy chain it after a preamp

@michelfleau 9 месяцев назад

Thank you Travis, i have echo send and echo return , doe’s it work ?

@keeganturner5040 11 месяцев назад

Did you run the compressor back in mono? I’m trying to do this exact same set up with a 488 mkii and the DBX. Effect send 1, to stereo RCA? Or mono. Ik the DBX has 2 rca inputs, and outputs, but your return back to the tascam is just plugged into channel 4’s input ? No stereo it seems. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

@travisraab 11 месяцев назад

Mono

@keeganturner5040 11 месяцев назад

@@travisraab thanks! Are you using just a normal stereo 1/4in to RCA and just only plugging in one side? Or a specific mono 1/4in RCA?

What are the best places to find good analog gear for cheap?

@travisraab Год назад

I answer that question in my course, tape recording tactics

@buggater Год назад

How do you actually connect all this to the DAW? I have Pro Tools Studio and I also use the Clarett (2 Pre). I have a Tascam Portastudio from the mid 1990s that I used maybe twice. I have it stored in the original box, as well as an Alesis SR - 16, same era. I also have an 80s Casio ToneBank (slightly different from yours) with a few really cool sounds. Thanks!

@travisraab Год назад

I cover routing for parallel compression in my Tape Recording Tactics course. It breaks it down using the portastudio, a compressor, and into the DAW.

07:01 why did you upload mp3 to the ai ?

@travisraab Год назад

that was my test run. BUT... I'm willing to bet you would not be able to hear the difference even if I did it in high quality mp3 over wav. Especially after uploading it to youtube.

Not here for AI mixing. Measure twice and cut it using a hand saw. Don't just throw it at the chop box.

@Sunkenballs12 Год назад

Be honest with your self. Would you be willing to sit down and bet some money that you can tell if a song is mastered by a person or an AI? Doubtful. Of course the human makes a more appealing master, but your giving yourself too much credit. 🤓🤓🤓
