We sat down with Rok Gulič, founder of Ollo Audio, to talk about all things headphones. Ollo Audio is a brand that we stand behind because Benedikt has been using Ollo headphones for years now and is extremely happy with them. But this is not supposed to be a commercial for their brand. Not at all. It is a deep conversation about headphones, mixing on headphones, mixing in general, personal taste, and even gets philosophical as we're trying to figure out what a good monitoring system actually is. Rok answered our questions in a very open, smart way and challenged us with interesting questions, as well. We covered: Mixing on headphones vs speakers Mobile recording/mixing Reliable portable rigs How to choose the right headphones for you Open vs closed back Calibration software Frequency response What matters besides frequency response Sustainability Support and repair Pricing and economics behind making and selling headphones And more.

Limitations don't have to be obstacles - they can be opportunities. The Myth of “Needing More” There's a common misconception that better gear and more plugins = better music. And there's the feeling of “gear envy” that most artists and producers experience at some point. So we're sharing examples of records made with minimal setups. Or simple songs and arrangements that turned out really great. Why Limitations Can Be a Superpower We explain how fewer options force you to focus on what really matters -songwriting, arrangement, and performances. We talk about decision fatigue and how too many options can kill creativity. And we highlight how limitations encourage problem-solving and innovation. Practical Examples and Tips In this episode you'll find actionable tips for embracing limitations: Stick to a few go-to plugins and learn them inside out (we have an entire episode dedicated to this: 141) Get the best out of what you already have. Only then expand and buy more. Limit track counts to prioritize strong arrangements. And we tell stories about artists or bands who thrived by keeping things simple. Closing Thoughts We recap the main points and reinforce the idea that limitations are a gift, not a curse. And finally, we encourage you to embrace you home studio setup and get creative with what you have.

It's pretty much the same thing that can happen when you go to the same producer over and over again: How do you keep things fresh and exciting? How do you avoid repeating yourself? Here's why this matters: Many artists love to have full creative control. That's often why they get into recording in the first place. But the problem is: If you write the songs, arrange the songs, play the songs, produce the songs, record the songs, mix the songs and master it all, you're gonna get a lot of…you! :) In this episode we want to share a few ways to keep it fresh while still being in control of the creative process and the result. This is what we're covering on the episode: Stories from bands that we've worked with over and over again The benefits of outside feedback (objective and honest, not just friends and family) Outsourcing certain parts of the process. Even if it is just for the feedback. Using different studios/jam spaces/locations Experimenting with instruments and gear Write a lot and challenge yourself to leave your comfort zone. Test the extremes even if you don't like it at first. Think about all the things you're listening to and what you like about those records. Is there anything you can use as inspiration that is not super common or that you haven't done before?

Not the specific techniques and tools, like EQ, compression, etc. but how to get in the flow state and how to stay there for as long as possible, so that you can focus on the things that really matter. Most people spend way too much time on repetitive, non-creative tasks and most people also take way too long to mix songs. This means they lose objectivity and waste a lot of brainpower on things that they shouldn't even have to think about. In this episode we're gonna show you six ways to improve your mixing workflow. You can immediately apply this and get more mixes done at a much higher quality. This is the recording of a live workshop we did at Studioszene 2024 in Hamburg.

Get it right, and your mix will sound massive, professional, and tight. Get it wrong, and it’ll fall apart faster than your drummer at 3 a.m. on tour. So, how do you actually nail it? That’s what we’re diving into in this episode. We’re sharing our tried-and-true approaches to crafting a low end that’s not only solid and punchy but also consistent across every playback system - from crappy earbuds to a festival PA. If you’ve been struggling with muddy bass, boomy kick drums, or a mix that just doesn’t hit hard enough, you’re not alone. This is one of the most searched and talked-about topics in mixing - and for good reason. We’ll break it all down step by step so you can stop Googling random tricks and start trusting your ears. Whether you’re a bassist trying to lock in with the kick drum, a guitarist looking for a big tone without stepping on the bass, or a DIY producer piecing it all together in your home studio, this episode will help you make sense of the low-end madness. PS: We love hearing from you! Please join the conversation and help us grow the show by leaving a comment, or a rating and review on your podcast app. Let us know what’s worked (or not worked) for your low-end struggles.

In case you're wondering: If you've been listening to our show for a while, you know that we're not focusing on gear a lot. We believe that not having expensive gear should not hold you back. It is never an excuse and you can make exciting sounding records with the simplest setup if you have the necessary skills. However, great analog gear is fascinating to many. Including ourselves. It is fun, it can be inspiring and it definitely sounds great. And there are still many people who swear by it. To us it's not either or, it's not better or worse. We believe that analog gear and plugins are all just tools and whatever works for someone is what they should use. And yes, if you have access to amazing sounding equipment and know how to use it (it is not exactly the same as using plugins), then by all means go for it and see if you can get better results with it. Many engineers do. And Moritz Enders is one of them. His records sound fantastic and he is willing to share why his approach works so well for him. In this interview, Moritz goes deep into his SSL mixing workflow. What are the benefits of analog mixing? How does he handle recalls? What are the challenges compared to an in-the-box workflow? We also talk about his general mixing philosophy and what you can take away from this to make your own mixes better. And finally, Moritz answers questions from the live audience at Studioszene 2024. Enjoy this conversation with one of Germany's greatest mixing engineers - Moritz Enders!

We sat down with him at Studioszene 2024 to talk about the art of mixing and how to keep creativity alive in the studio. Known for his work with The Fray and Aerosmith, among many others, Warren shares insights on staying fresh and open to new ideas. He talks about how he finds inspiration, brings fascinating stories to the conversation and proves once again what a brilliant educator he is. If you're looking for ways to keep your own mixing sessions creative, this is a discussion you don’t want to miss. Enjoy!
