Hi Friends,
I hope you´re doing marvellously well!
In today´s video, I´m interviewing legendary producer and mixing engineer Joe Chiccarelli.
Joe has made some of the best sounding records ever. From Frank Zappa’s masterpieces to the White Stripe’s, Joe’s resume is one of the most comprehensive ever assembled. He continues to be at the cutting edge of the music industry, working with both established artists and up and coming ones.
In the interview, we´re talking music history, all-time greats, and what makes the most sought after musicians, producers and mixers stand out from the crowd. Joe shows us his favourite studio equipment, we discuss what gear you should buy when first starting out, mixing on consoles vs. mixing in the box and a lot more.
I hope you enjoy the interview!
Have a marvellous time recording and mixing,
Warren
OMG Joe’s one of my heroes. This is awesome

Great chat Warren. I liked what you were both saying about the session musicians playing like they were “in the band” …if only some bands’ musicians would do the same! 🙂
Hi @plap-disqus-c75b6f114c23a4d7ea11331e7c00e73c:disqus yes that’s a fantastic point to illustrate! It is completely true, the great players know how to be invisible and just play for the song! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren
