🎶 Studio Walkthrough: Live Jazz Session Setup & Recording Tips 🎶

In this video, I take you behind the scenes of my studio during an incredible live jazz session, with techniques inspired by Rudy Van Gelder’s recordings.

From musician placement to mic techniques, I’ll show you how I optimise sight-lines, acoustics, and even embrace mic spill for a more cohesive and natural sound.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

🎹 Musician Placement – Creating a setup where players can hear themselves acoustically and connect visually.

🥁 Drum Mic Techniques – Including how I’ve adapted my overheads for Atmos mixing.

🎤 Percussion Overdub Trick – A gem shared with me by legendary Blues producer Mike Vernon.

🎛️ Console Magic – How I drive the valve Decca and SSL AWS 900+ consoles for maximum vibe.

🎚️ Outboard Gear Settings – A peek at my settings for the EAR825 valve EQ and DBX 160.

This video is packed with tried-and-true techniques, subtle tweaks, and a few tricks to inspire your next recording session.
