DESCRIPTION:
A plus: audio CD uses different microphones D. Rosario Perhaps the best thing I learned from this book is an invaluable lesson: get good microphones. Before I had this book, I did not own a Neumann mic, but after listening to the audio examples, it became apparent that it would greatly improve my recordings, and it did! He also uses the ubiquitous Avalon compressor/channel strip, which is practically standard issue.Although many people use software compressors, he clearly demonstrates how to effectively use side-chaining with outboard, dedicated compressors.Without the CD, this book would be of no value, but the audio examples definitely make. Closet book to help with true recording of vocals Bigangbo this is the closest book I have that got me the closet on correct levels and compression on recording vocals. However again I am stuck not knowing completely how to achieve what I am satisfied with with my own equipment because all these books generalize too much. I will say there is good information though and it did help me somewhat so I say buy this if you are new to recording vocals it will help at least guide you somewhat. Just do not expect help with your own equipment.. O good book for guide!! One of the things I liked this book was the cd with the tracks inside, it s very nice to hear the examples in practice, but I think it would be great if the book brings more information about effects and equalizing tips for vocals
The accompanying CD contains 80 helpful demonstration tracks.. In this "one-on-one" lesson, Recording Institute of Technology instructor Dallan Beck presents a well thought-out tutorial on recording vocals that all musicians and recording engineers can learn from. He explains microphones, mic placement, compression, equalization, tracking vocals, effects and more in a detailed, yet easy-to-understand way. (Musicians Institute Press)
