It's well shocking that there are music producers who use basic or even free music recording equipment and still perform great results. So I'm going to cover the basic recording music equipment you need to get the best sound from your home studio. In order to get the most out of your computer music recording you need to go for the best potential music yield equipment.
If you are on a shoe string allocation but you have an foremost recording session, hiring top notch studio equipment is not a bad idea. The digital music yield age has made a lot of music producers to do everything in the box. If you are recording music in the box you will need a expert audio software (find out more about that on my blog).
[The Mixer Desk Is For]
On this online music yield chapter I'm going to focus on recording audio without a mixing desk, using the internal software mixer. If you are working inside the box you won't need a mixing desk. But if you have outboard studio gear stick around you might learn a thing or two from these free music yield tips.
And if you are using Vst plug-ins you won't need a mixer, you will only need it if you are using hardware synthesizers. You just need a good audio interface with a lot of inputs. Get yourself a valve pre amp to record rich vocals and guitars. Other audio interfaces come with built in pre amps. Use Dsp headphone mixes from the soundcard if you need distinct headphone mixes. Getting a headphone amp can bring out a good vocal operation because the singer and the producer will be able to hear exactly what is being recorded.
You can also be able to add effects to encourage a great performance. But other audio interface come with a built in headphone amp. You must also get a pop filter, if you have a good allocation go for nylon but you can get remarkable results with metal pop filters. If you well need hi-end potential recordings you may get yourself analog to digital converters, but they are very expensive, and I wouldn't suggest them for newbie's.
Avoid using Usb microphones, they may be good for recording a lecture but not a expert audio performance, and if you are on a very tight allocation get one with no auto gain circuits and they must have solutions for monitoring. To get the most out of your pre amps you will need an correct monitoring. Buy a good pair of monitors, and as a expert music producer, you also need a competent sound engineer to specialist your tracks.
Do your study first and read up reliable reviews before buying your ideal recording music equipment, and don't waste money on poor gear.
