Manage episode 514750084 series 3661141
In the age of endless plugins and digital perfection, it’s easy to forget that some of the best-sounding records ever made were created with gear you could physically touch. In this episode, I break down why analog gear still matters in 2025, and how using real hardware can reignite your creativity, improve your workflow, and make your mixes feel alive.
This isn’t another “analog is warmer” rant. It’s about rediscovering connection, feel, and commitment in your mixes... the stuff that plugins can’t replicate.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- How analog gear adds musical depth and harmonic character
- Why the hands-on experience makes you a better mixer
- How creative limitations push you toward bolder, more emotional decisions
If your mixes ever feel a little too clean or lifeless, this episode might just change how you approach making music.
