Jon Tidey 06/06/13 10:46 AM,This article is provided by Audio Geek Zine. Here are some simple steps that can help insure that your vocal track is working together with the rest of your mix. Cleanup Before anything, clean up the vocal tracks. Go through and trim the silence around each phrase. Remove any noise, thumps, clicks, pops and gasps. Fade in or out on each edit. Pitch Correction Gentle pitch correction with software like Melodyne is a big part in getting that professional… View this story

PSW Staff 06/03/13 08:37 AM,Few names carry more weight in theatre circles than the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford, UK. The main Royal Shakespeare Theatre auditorium and smaller adjacent Swan Theatre were re-opened in late 2010 following extensive re-modelling, accompanied by a substantial and ongoing investment in new production technologies. Prior to the re-build, the nearby Courtyard Theatre was created as a temporary home for the RSC’s productions as well as the prototype for the new one-room theatre format proposed for the RST and… View this story

Joe Gilder 05/30/13 12:48 PM,These videos are provided by Home Studio Corner. In this video, Joe shows us a new technique he developed to meet the need of getting a client a commensurate mix of a new track as quickly as possible. In essense, he set up a loop of the track, which played continuously through several rotations. On each loop/rotation, Joe did additional mixing that he thought was necessary, and then moved along. He notes that, perhaps a bit surprisingly, this approach… View this story

Matthew Weiss 04/24/13 03:01 PM,This article is provided by the Pro Audio Files. This article has pretty much been due for a while. Making 808s really hit hard is a little tricky. But I’m going to break it down along with some audio examples (and some 808s you can happily nab for your own use). So here we go: how to make 808 kicks hit really hard. Sine Waves First, an 808 kick is a catch-all for sine-wave-based kicks. Many “808s” are not… View this story

PSW Staff 11/14/12 12:52 PM,The Eureka Volunteer Fire and Ambulance Company, which serves the greater Stewartstown, Pennsylvania area, boasts a fine social hall that it rents for meetings, wedding receptions, and other events. At over 4,000 square-feet, the social hall can comfortably accommodate up to three hundred people but until recently its sound reinforcement system delivered poor coverage with marginal fidelity.

Gary Zandstra 11/05/12 12:22 PM,A couple of weeks ago the sound operator and I were standing in the middle of the main sanctuary trying to decide if the overall level was too hot. We were also trying to understand why the stage volume seemed to be up significantly. As we were talking (actually almost shouting, so that we could hear each other), I asked, “Is that the acoustic snare I’m hearing, or the amplified one?” With the sound level meter showing peaks of nearly… View this story

Karl Coryat 09/11/12 08:35 AM,This article is excerpted from Karl Coryat’s Guerrilla Home Recording - 2nd Edition. Even with today’s inexpensive recording systems, it’s possible to achieve a dynamic range of over 90 dB—in other words, the loudest sounds you record can be over 90 decibels louder than the background noise. Managing all of the “area” between these two extremes, for each and every sound you record, is a skill that’s critical to making a good-sounding recording. Fortunately, there are expanders, compressors, and limiters… View this story
