Sunday, June 02, 2013In The Studio: Observations On Improving Bass Guitar Recording
Jon Tidey 06/02/13 04:44 PM,This article is provided by Audio Geek Zine. Bass doesn’t always get the attention it deserves in a recording situation. I see a lot of recordists rush through bass recording, only to later be frustrated with the bass when it comes time for mixing. It’s really too bad because it’s the foundation of the song. A great bass will groove tight with the drums and support the guitars. Fitting it in the mix will take minimal effort and you… View this post

Thursday, May 30, 2013In The Studio: Introducing The Effective 20-Minute Recording Mix
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 post

In The Studio: My Top 10 List Of Compressors
Bobby Owsinski 05/28/13 09:20 AM,This article is provided by Bobby Owsinski. I was recently intrigued by a really good article on Beatport’s Attack blog called “Top 20 Best Compressors Of All Time.” Since the blog is primarily dedicated to electronic music, you can probably dismiss some of its seemingly dubious entries to the way they’re used creating that type of music. The article did get me thinking about the top 10 compressors that I like though, so I thought I’d do my own… View this post
