Suppose you just recorded a band in a club to create a live album. A few days after the gig, the drummer asks, “Can I play a drum solo in your studio, and have you add it to the album? I want it to sound “live”, as if I played it at the gig.” This happened to me. We recorded a drum solo in the studio, then edited it onto the beginning of one of the live-recorded songs. People listening…

One of the topics that I’ve seen poorly understood, and even deliberately used to mislead people, is the issue of wireless microphone transmitter power and the effects said power has on system performance. Let’s start with the basics: all things being equal, more transmitter power = more range for the system, but not in a linear way. In broad terms, when discussing analog wireless systems, the receiver wants to see a signal from a transmitter that is at least about…

If you pay attention to sound at all, you love to hear a great echo. Think about standing next to someone at the edge of a large canyon, listening to them shout and waiting to hear the reflection off the other side of the canyon. As we stand beside him, we will first hear the sound of his voice on a path directly to our ears. Moments later, we will hear his voice repeated after the sound wave has traveled…

Provided by Sweetwater. Q: I’ve been working at recording for a while now, and I’m starting to like the results from time to time. However, I’ve had a nagging question in my mind I’ve been debating friends about for months, and I’m hoping you can help. Should You Print Reverb or Delay? Is there a clear cut answer? A: There are basically two schools of thought when it comes to the question of whether or not to record with…

“You know, I’ve been doing sound here at my church for about two years now, and there are a couple of things that aren’t quite clear to me. First, where’s the bass and treble control? And, what are these knobs for - the ones on the console labeled high, mid and low?” I’ve heard questions like this posed more than once by people who do sound at their churches. And they’re great questions. Remember - we’re all in this together!…

This article is provided by Home Studio Corner. If you’ve been recording for any length of time, you’ve more than likely come across a channel strip, or you will some day. What is it? A channel strip is simply an outboard microphone preamp that has either EQ or compression built in, or both. These can be amazing tools, because you can begin to shape the sound of your recordings before the audio ever hits your recording software. For example,…
