Episode Description

You can have the best studio gear, but if you can’t handle artists, you might as well be recording air.
In this episode of Inside the Recording Studio, Chris & Jody turn the faders down on gear talk and crank up the discussion on people management—because the biggest noise in the studio isn’t feedback…it’s ego.

From the control freak who wants to tweak every EQ band to the “just tell me when it’s done” type who ghosts halfway through the mix, our hosts dissect the psychological minefield of modern recording. Expect stories, sarcasm, and a few too-relatable moments for anyone who’s ever had to smile through the fifteenth vocal take “just to be safe.”

You’ll get smart recording setup tips to diffuse tension before it ruins your vibe, plus learn how to assert your producer instincts without flipping the studio couch. Chris & Jody even share their secret methods for reading body language faster than your DAW loads plugins.

Stick around for this week’s Friday Finds, because there’s something free—and time-sensitive—you don’t want to miss.

So grab your coffee, mute that talkback mic, and prepare for a crash course in studio survival psychology. This one’s for the engineers who mix music and emotions.
