Visite du studio d'Andrew Dawson

In this Puremix studio tour, award-winning producer and mixer Andrew Dawson welcomes us into his personal workspace and breaks down how he built a highly functional studio without overthinking it.

From treating a living-room-style space during lockdown to dialing in monitoring he’s trusted for over 20 years, Andrew walks through the real decisions that shape his workflow, not the flashy ones.

Inside this tour, you’ll discover:
🎛️ How Andrew treated his room quickly and effectively without waiting months
🔊 Why massive main monitors matter for low-end checks but not daily mixing
🎚️ The monitors he’s relied on for decades and why familiarity beats hype
🎸 How keeping instruments and gear within arm’s reach fuels creativity
🎹 The synths, pedals, and keyboards behind happy accidents and signature sounds
🎤 Why the “right” mic isn’t always the most expensive one
💡 How his minimalist desk setup supports speed, focus, and instinct

Andrew also shares how he integrates analog gear, MIDI instruments, and the UA Apollo ecosystem into a setup that’s always ready to create, without waiting on sessions to load or inspiration to come back.

This is a must-watch for anyone interested in building a studio that serves the music first, encourages experimentation, and stays grounded in real-world workflow.
