Episode show notes:
In failing to prepare you are preparing to fail. Or at least in this context, you are likely gonna give yourself a few problems.

Going into a recording studio that you've never used before can be a daunting and maybe even confusing prospect.

It'd be nice if all producers had the same workflow and routing setup that you use in the recording studio, but sadly this aint the case.

Who knows what the producer that used the recording studio before you was thinking? Only them, that's who.

If an unconventional, un-labelled routing setup has been used and you're walking in there for the first time with the talent hoping to record, things could get pretty confusing and pretty exhausting, pretty fast.

Benedikt and Malcom dealt with this situation like a couple of champs recently which was the inspiration behind this episode.

There are a few things you can do beforehand that will ensure that you're not faced with a day of routing before even thinking about pressing the record button.

Remember, in the recording studio, time is money and this episode will save you some $$$ and blushes if you follow the approach these two pros take when entering a new recording studio for the first time.

Let's dive in!
