Getting a Good Acoustic Response by Treating Your Room
Posted by adminRemember when popular bands had to be flown out of town just to record at some multi-million dollar recording facility built on several acres of land? They had rooms large enough to record an entire symphony orchestra and had great sounding natural reverb and room response.
Most of those studios today have either closed down or downsized because of the home studio revolution. All across the globe, people are starting to realize that they could make high quality recordings in the comfort of their own homes, provided they invest enough time in the gear, software and technical know-how.
Recording is still an art that has to be learned and perfected, which is why there are big studios and commercial project studios that exist to this day. For the musician or recording enthusiast, there’s no better way to get your feet wet in the recording industry by applying for an apprenticeship at the commercial studios downtown. But what if you’re just a casual/hobby musician who doesn’t want to become a fulltime engineer? Perhaps setting up a small home studio is for you!
Equipment for your home studio
Running your own studio for you and your friends to work material on is perhaps one of the greatest satisfactions a musician can ever have. Apart from not having to pay the rent and electricity for a commercial facility, you can record from the comfort of your own home with a minimum of gear whose cost now runs a fraction of what it used to even a few years ago.
