How to... record at home on a budget

Johnson, Chad. (Author).

Home recording has never before seen the popularity it's experiencing today. Whether it's simply a laptop with a camera microphone or a decked-out studio with tens of thousands of dollars in equipment, more people are recording their music at home now than at any other time in history. What's even more impressive are the sounds that can be accomplished with affordable gear. The gap between the capabilities of the professional and home studio is diminishing more every year, which makes this a great time to be in the home recording business. In How to Record at Home on a Budget, we'll look closely at all aspects involved in getting quality recordings from your modest home studio rig. The technological revolution has made high-grade production from home more attainable than ever, but the instruments won't record themselves. There's still lots of know-how involved, and that's where this book comes in. If you're willing to put in a bit of effort to learn the tools of the trade, great sounds await!
