Someone had used that clip a few months ago, but instead of being about recording, he was supposed to be Hillary on the eve of her primary defeat.

I always envisioned Charlie Steinberg to be the jovial sort. Prolly cause of his first name being "Charlie". I guess that makes it funnier, to me.

When someone above said that was the funniest shit they had ever seen, I thought it was just internet chat hyperbole.

I don't just go throwing that phrase around all willy nilly. I showed this to some clients in the studio tonight... they didn't think it was all that funny, but then they arent engineers. It turns out Hitler could record at our studio since we use cubase and melodyne. Unfortunately he will have to bring his own Neuman mic.

Yeah...you definitely need to be pretty deep into recording to fully appreciate the inside jokes and references, but me...I felt like I just about passed out I was laughing so hard.
So awesome. Massive props to whoever put that together.

Howling at the neighbors. Hoping they have more mic cables.

Somehow I feel like this just made me a sympathizer.

I don't speak much German, but unfortunately I speak enough for that to be more disconcerting than funny. The concept is awesome, though, I'll definitely give it that.

I kind of wish I hadn't seem the Hillary version, 'cause I found that one hilarious, and this one, maybe because I kind of knew what was coming, not so much. I'd rather be laughing at this...

When he said "Don't even tell me your going to use autotune instead of Melodyne" I cracked up.
