Recording; You're ready?? part 2



So now were at the Recording stage and getting down all the riffs, drums, bass and vocals as you planned. If you don't feel like you have a certain piece of your music right move on. Don't get hung up on a small detail and waste your money, you can always just go back to it later. Also if you do get hung up on a detail you didn't like, have your rough recording burned on a CD so all of you can listen and work out side the Recording Studio.

Note: Always carry CD's with you and keep a personal archive. Don't just depend on the Recording Studio to have all your stuff. The dam awful worst that can happen is after you Record all your music down or even a certain song and then having the Recording studio tell you they misplaced your stuff.. This has happened to us.

Don't spend too much time trying to cram all your songs in just a few days. I really recommend that you spend about 3 to 4 hours in the Recording sessions at a time. Believe me it's not that you can't get everthing out in just one day. I've seen it done, but then only having to come back and redue alot of what you thought sounded great in your Recording, actually weren't that great after all. Your hearing actually shuts down some sounds after a while and you hear in a more monotone sense, than if you were to rest your ears and start freash once again. You'll notice the diffrence.

Don't listen to your recording in a very high volumes. Same happens as I said above. You will actualy hear your Recording details more at a lower volume, you'll be very amazed. Just to add to this; listen to your Recordings in as many diffrent environments as possible, example: Your Car, home, laptop, headphones etc.
This will give you the best idea of how you may want your Music Recording to sound. You will have to do this also after your Recording/Mixing is complete.

I'll post soon that's all for now.....
