It’s never been easier – or less expensive – to capture high-quality recordings from the comfort of home. But with the wealth of equipment and information available, the big question is often: “Where do I start?”
Which digital audio workstation is best for you? Is it more important to shell out for a microphone or recording interface? Which microphones do you actually need – and how many? We’ve got these answers and a lot more in this free session to help you get top-quality recordings, every time.
You’ll learn:
-The ideal components for a basic recording rig
-How to save money without sacrificing quality
-How to treat your room for the best sound & performance
-How to get top-quality, professional-sounding recordings
-…and more!
