We're kicking off our revamped format with a bang, pulling back the curtain on the art and science of live band recording with engineer extraordinaire Nick Nagurka.<br /><br />Known for his work with Theo Katzman and Vulfpeck, Nick brings a fresh perspective to the age-old challenge of capturing lightning in a bottle.<br /><br />Nick's approach turns conventional wisdom on its head, embracing the chaos of bleed and prioritizing the vibe over technical perfection. He shares his unique methods for achieving that elusive "band in a room" sound, from unconventional mic placements to the strategic use of cutting-edge technology.<br /><br />This episode is a masterclass in balancing old-school techniques with modern tools, demonstrating how to capture the raw energy of a live performance while maintaining the polish expected in professional recordings. Whether you're a bedroom producer or a seasoned studio vet, Nick's insights will challenge your assumptions and inspire you to push the boundaries of your craft.<br /><br /><br />Topics we discuss:<br /><ul><li>Techniques for recording drums in a live setting</li><li>⁠Microphone choices and placement strategies</li><li>Balancing musician comfort with technical requirements</li><li>⁠The use of modern tools like iZotope RX in conjunction with traditional recording techniques</li><li>⁠The importance of committing to sounds during tracking</li></ul><br />To learn more about Nick - <a href="https://www.nicknagurkamusic.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.nicknagurkamusic.com/</a><br /><br />Download our free guide: "The Future-Proof Mixing Engineer: 8 Essential Skills for 2024 and Beyond" - <a href="https://mpe-ebook.benwallick.com/future-proof-mixing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://mpe-ebook.benwallick.com/future-proof-mixing</a><br /><br /><br />Connect with us:<br /><br />Secret Sonics - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/secretsonics" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.instagram.com/secretsonics</a><br />Ben - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/benwallickmusic/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.instagram.com/benwallickmusic/</a><br />Carl - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/carlbahner/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.instagram.com/carlbahner/</a><br />Nick - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thenick" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.instagram.com/thenick</a><br /><br />Thanks to our sponsors!<br /><br />Progressions with Travis Ference - <a href="https://www.progressionspodcast.com/listen" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.progressionspodcast.com/listen</a><br /><br />“The Platinum Pitch: Proposals Clients Can’t Refuse” FREE CLASS Register today: <a href="https://branding.carlbahner.com/offers/eL9EmmUL/checkout" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://branding.carlbahner.com/offers/eL9EmmUL/checkout</a><br /><br /><br />Learn more:<br /><br /><a href="https://www.benwallick.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.benwallick.com/</a><br /><a href="https://www.carlbahner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.carlbahner.com/</a><br /><br /><br />This episode with edited by Gavi Kutliroff - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/pleasant_peasant_music/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.instagram.com/pleasant_peasant_music/</a><br /><br />]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>2412</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>analog,audio,engineer,live,logic,mastering,mix,mixer,mixing,music,musicians,pro,producer,production,record,recording,studio,tape,tools,vulfpeck</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>true</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/5dd012c299e372c420f604dd54683c1d.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>#215 - Future-Proofing Your Music Business: Essential Strategies for Sustainable Success</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/215-future-proofing-your-music-business-essential-strategies-for-sustainable-success--60694063</link><description><![CDATA[Ben and Carl discuss key strategies for creating a sustainable and future-proof music production business.

In our conversation, Nacho tells his story - moving from Panama to the USA after nearly 2 decades in the business, sleeping in the studio, and making things work. He talks about how getting good at recording informs the mixing process and vice versa, the difference between the mixing mindset and the mastering mindset, and how working on so many genres has helped him in all areas of mixing. He goes deep on his approach to mixing - how he creates space in a mix, and how he sets the tone (not dynamics) from the stereo bus. He also emphasizes leaning into what you do well, having patience, and so much more!

In our conversation, Jack tells his story - transitioning from bands into the studio and putting in the reps. We chat about trends in heavy music, making sure he gets some pre-production in, and what making a heavy record looks like. He goes deep on his approach to capturing drums - collecting vast samples from every drummer on the kit they play, and how he treats bass, drums, and vocals in the mix. We also chat about work-life balance, staying healthy, being honest with artists, trusting yourself, and so much more!

In our conversation, Dr. Ford shares his journey; from scrubbing toilets as an intern to joining a country band, to eventually producing and mixing for artists around the world. He goes deep on his holistic approach to production, mixing, and maintaining a career in this industry - including keeping in mind if the fix is momentary or constant, making sure everything is phase-aligned, using dynamic EQ and de-harsh-ers, keeping the mids and sides in mind and using mid-side compression, why dual mono is important, and how he uses parallel compression. We also chat about his game-changing trip to Mix with the Masters with Jack Joseph Puig, vocal textures, the rule or threes, the golden ratio, lessons learned from his mom's real estate business, and so much more!
