Joe Gilder 04/17/13 04:40 PM,This article is provided by Home Studio Corner. Once everything has been recorded, and before you start mixing, do you edit the audio? Do you fix things? Do you think it’s cheating? Here’s my take. What is editing? An audio editor is much like a book editor. He takes the original audio file and adds or removes bits and pieces to make it better. An audio editor at a radio station will take a spoken-word commercial that’s 34 seconds… View this story

Joe Gilder 02/01/13 04:24 PM,This article is provided by Home Studio Corner. G.I.R.A.T.S. — what is that all about? What does it stand for? It stands for something that you should print out and plaster all over your studio. It should be on your computer desktop and screensaver. It should be the motto behind EVERYTHING you do in your studio. What is it? GET IT RIGHT AT THE SOURCE. I’ve said it plenty of times before, but I can think of no better… View this story

One of the main reasons is that dynamics tend to pick up less of the room, so if you have a noisy room or just an acoustically bad-sounding room, a dynamic mic might allow you… View this story

Joe Gilder 01/04/13 04:01 PM,This article is provided by Home Studio Corner. There are as many ways to mic an acoustic guitar as there are engineers in the world. I want to show you why you should consider stereo-miking acoustic guitars (that is, using two microphones on the guitar instead of just one), and then offer reasons not to do it. A lot of engineers will throw a single mic on an acoustic guitar, point it at the 12th fret, and hit record.… View this story

Joe Gilder 12/13/12 06:11 PM,This article is provided by Home Studio Corner. 2012 has been full of learning experiences for me, both personally and professionally. Usually when someone uses the phrase “learning experience,” they actually mean “painful experience.” It’s so true, right? Any time I learn a powerful lesson, there’s almost always some sort of discomfort that comes along with it. Take mixing, for example. I love to mix, but there are days where I would rather swim with hungry alligators than work… View this story
