Discover how producer and engineer Matt Odmark uses automation to polish a mix he's working on. From the episode "How to Mix a Rock Band: Rock Band" that's part of a full series with Matt capturing and finishing a song his studio.

How to time align drum close mics to the overheads: calculate the difference in distance, turn it into a delay, and set that delay in LUNA. When we lowered the mics, the time alignment had to change: 1.5 ms on the snare mics and 1.7 ms on the kick. Why? The hit reaches the close mic before the overheads. Delaying the close mics by that difference lines them up. From Episode 2, "Tracking the Band", part of our series recording a real band in a real house with only 8 channels. SPECIAL FREE SERIES on YouTube. See link in bio. Do you time align your close mics to the overheads, or slip them by ear? #HomeRecording #MusicProduction #DrumRecording #TimeAlignment #UniversalAudio 07 Nov 2026

"What a cool sound!". Tom Bukovac channels Joe Walsh using a Cooper Time Cube. And he nails it of course. Check out our full series "Cooper Time Cube Madness." on www.InsideBlackbird.com John McBride, Tom Bukovac, Joe Vitale, and Eric “Ebo” Borash put this unusual analog delay to work in Blackbird Studio D. See and hear all that these incredible pieces of analog gear can do to guitar and vocals. #guitar #analoggear #outboardgear 05 Nov 2026

A very very cool piece of outboard gear that defined a couple classic rock records of the 70s. Do you know what it is? Comment below. See and hear this week's episode release on www.InsideBlackbird.com for the full breakdown. #UncleLarry 04 Nov 2026

How to mic a bass amp for more definition: move the mic closer to the center of the cone. We moved it in distance and in radius, over the middle of the driver. Why? Once the whole band played, bleed in the bass mic cost it definition. The center of the cone gives you more level, more high end and a stronger transient, so the bass cuts through the mix. From Episode 2, Tracking the Band, part of our series with Tape Op and Universal Audio: record a real band in a real house with only 8 channels. SPECIAL FREE SERIES on YouTube. See link in bio. Where do you aim your mic on a bass cab: the center, the edge, or halfway? #HomeRecording #MusicProduction #BassRecording #HomeStudio #UniversalAudio 02 Nov 2026

We call ourselves Inside Blackbird for a reason. We go inside our own gear, inside how they are used in hundreds of sessions, by some of the biggest insiders in the audio game; and share the knowledge with you. Here, John McBride shares some initial thoughts on the Neve 1073, one of his favorite EQs in a full video series dedicated to the topic. Experience, Insights, and making better music. One frequency at a time. Come on inside. www.InsideBlackbird.com #musicproduction #audioengineering #mixengineer #proaudio #studiolife #neve #1073 30 Oct 2026

How to mic drum overheads in XY: one pair of UA SP-1 small diaphragm condensers for the whole kit. We placed them so the floor tom came through as much as the rack tom, and got a good snare presence in the overheads. Why XY? The drums hit the overheads later than the close mics, which causes comb filtering. One XY pair gives you a single source to time align against. From Episode 2, Tracking the Band, part of our series with Tape Op and Universal Audio: record a real band in a real house with only 8 channels. SPECIAL FREE SERIES on YouTube. See link in bio. Do you run XY, a spaced pair, or something else over the kit? #HomeRecording #MusicProduction #DrumRecording #MikingDrums #UniversalAudio 29 Oct 2026

Five tracks for a whole drum kit: an XY pair overhead and two mics on the snare. Here is why. In a studio you'd normally put top and bottom mics on basically every drum. For this project we only had 8 tracks, so we set aside five for the kit: two pairs of UA SP-1 small diaphragm condensers. One pair is an XY stereo pair above the kit, to capture a balance of the toms and the cymbals. The other is on the snare, top and side, because a snare is half head and half shell. The crack of the shell is part of that sound. From Episode 1, The Setup, part of our series with Tape Op and Universal Audio: record a real band in a real house with only 8 channels. Would you give your snare two mics, or stick with one? Special FREE series! Full episodes on YouTube.

John McBride tells us how he really feels 😂 From our complete series with John: "Intro to EQs". While he does in fact love the GML 8200, there's just one section of that Parametric Equalizer that he just can't stand. But don't worry, he can't stand that specific frequency anytime, any place. It's no nonsense insights like this that make Inside Blackbird your home for real tried-and-true audio expertise.
