I watched this video 7 months ago. Now I own a record label and have invested over 30,000$ into my dream studio. I remember researching for hours on how to make a perfect studio under 400$ and I was about to give up until this video. If it wasn’t for this video I probably wouldn’t have come to this level Of music production thank you

You know its funny because about 6 months ago I thought I would try out your $300 studio challenge but because I live in Australia I couldn't purchase everything you were recommending due to it only being available in America. So instead I had to compromise and surprisingly enough, every single product you recommended in this video I actually purchased, the Focusrite Scarlet innerface, the Samson c01 everything! Glad to know that what I bought was actually perfect for me. Everything works and sounds just as great as you said they did. Better listen to this guy guys, he know what he's on about... I would know ;-)

What Brayden said is true. Before I even discovered Graham's channel (which I did a few weeks ago), last month, I coinceidentally bought a scarlett interface and the samson c01, and they really are all you need for starting a home recording studio, along with a pop filter, a mic stand, and studio headphones (and of course instruments, unless you choose to use synthetic instruments). Although, I've been having problems with my audio having pops and crackles when I record and playback (no clipping, just unknown pops and crackles which worse over), but the problem may just be with my laptop (still don't know the root of the problem). Other than that annoyance, everything Graham recommended in the video is perfect, and his advice should definitely be followed.

If you have the cash, I say go. There is even a Scarlett Solo studio pack which already comes with a condenser mic and headphones aside from the audio interface (though I'm not sure about the quality of the mic or headphones, so you'll have to check vids or articles on them). But if you're interested in getting the scarlett solo, and then a separate samson c01, you won't be making a bad choice since I can say that I'm happy with the c01 so far in the past few weeks since I've had it. Definitely worth the upgrade if you're starting to get a little serious with recording.

I built a entire recording room in my garage. It's the size of a phone booth but i completely sound proofed it to around 28 decibels. It has all the recording devices you'll ever need, microphone, even put a black light in it to give the artist a vibe. I only charge 20 and hour to give guys a chance to maybe blow up or just have a little fun creating their own music. I enjoy doing it as a little side hustle and that's the thing i'm most proud of. Honestly all of the gear not including my recording software and PC was around $500 but that is because i bought a $1,200 mic so you can make things cheaper if you really try.

For headphones I'd recommend the legendary Sony MDR V6. They have been in studios across the globe for the last 25+ years! Not only that, you can get a pair for only $59-79 depending on where you purchase them and the flat response on them is amazing! What you HEAR in your mix with these headphones is what you'll get when you hear the end result. If it sounds like you have too much bass when mixing, you'll have too much bass! If the highs sound to quiet with the headphones, that's how it'll sound on every other setup. It's actually at the point where I prefer mixing these days with my Sony MDR V6s despite the fact that I have Yamaha HS 50s and the HS80's and I STILL prefer mixing with only my headphones.

These nylon pop filters are really popular but if you have clever mic placement you don't really need them. Pop filters (even the expensive ones) tend to diffuse the high frequencies and although the effect is minimal, it is present and perceptible. Metal pop filters are actually better for preserving high frequency response.

Focusrite still let you setup an account and provide the software on used items and even list Ebay as one of the purchase place options. Flipping awesome!

I would not recommend the Focusrite Solo if you are a keyboard player, as the instrument input is mono, and you need stereo unless you are going to rely totally on virtual instruments (but it has no MIDI interface). Also, if you play acoustic guitar and want to sing and record your instrument at the same time, you need TWO microphone preamps. The Focusrite 2i2 or 2i4 (with MIDI) is worth paying the extra for.

Remember, though, that virtual instruments (if you're going to rely solely on them) don't require a MIDI interface. Many keyboard controllers today are connected via USB, which is kind of handy.

Used to be that bands would have to bring truck loads of p/a , Now you just need your computer . I take a few midi controllers , a few things, to look like a band but mainly for show. Bands now just plug and play basically, I can take a whole gig in my lexus car., because with my computers , i just set up a table a few keyboard stands, plug all in and plug into the rat tail of the venue. My Controllers are USB powered, so only have one electric plug really if off my laptop. Gigs can be a dream not a chore.

Good advice, but I would go for the scarlett 2i2 if you can afford it ($160 vs $99). You can record stereo sources like keyboards that way. Mixing on headphones is a great way to save money but be sure to take breaks and reference your mix at some point on another system because it will shock you how different things sound in a live space.

I have a Scarlett 2i2 bundle pack. Comes with interface, mic, lead, headphones. The bundle packs save you time and hassle buying components separately. You can always upgrade later. The Mic is great. Defintely need a Mic stand and consider 2 - traditional boom stand essential and desktop. Pop filter is a must. I use garage band that comes on my Mac pro. Simple set up with great results. If you're into creating own stuff with vocals seriously consider upgrade with 2 inputs. You will not regret decision. Allows you to work guitar and Mic at same time. I wouldn't record like that for final takes but great for ideas and tinkering that gets recorded so you don't forget and can build on. Best thing is you don't have to keep plugging leads in and out to switch and work on different tracks. Can also get a second Mic and record acoustic through 2 mics. Yeah it will cost bit extra but great investment and will keep you going for a while.

Very helpful guide! I have some questions that maybe someone with more experience than myself might be able to answer.. I am on the market for pretty much everything except a computer.. ! What I am going to need the equipment for is: 1. Record my guitar (both electric and acoustic - without the need of recording vocals. 2. I am making videos that will require voice over and narration (documentaries and stuff..) and 3.Videos that will capture the sound of my vinyl record player whilst the camera is at a still frame on the record that will be spinning. So.. with all that in mind, and considering the fact that I have heard many different views and recommendations on the matter.., I am a bit confused as to what the best budget products for my KZitem channel are going to be.. For instance, I have heard that instead of the Scarlett solo , one should wait and invest into a Scarlett 2i4 because the latter will not 'clip' the sound of the instrument.. (is that true?). I was also thinking that the best recording outcome will be achieved if I was to get a dedicated mic to record my guitar (the one I have in mind is the Sennheiser e609 or any Dynamic mic for that matter) , and not an ''all-arounder'' mic.. and also, on the matter of monitoring my sound .. I ve heard that using headphones instead of monitor speakers will result into a very bass-focused sound and hence it will affect the final outcome of the recording.. I would really appreciate any views and suggestions on the stuff that I am mentioning, and any recommendations from the people who are experienced in the whole home recording field will be great help!! Thanks in advance. (PS. I am obviously on a very tight budget... so the more affordable the stuff , the better... :P )
