Want better Audio Recordings? Here’s what you must do

1. Want better Audio Recordings? Here’s what you must do Where professional studios are trusted to produce quality music, you can even enjoy amazing results from your home studio if you have the necessary equipment and the right set-up. Great sounding studio monitors like the Fluid Audio FX50 are the first requirement when recording audio, especially if you are looking for some great results. However, studio speakers can't get the job done all by themselves. If you already have a pair of stellar studio monitoring speakers but the music you’re producing is nothing more than mediocre, chances are that you might be doing a few things wrong. Here we have listed a few of the most important things you can do to create the music of your dreams: Get good-sounding instruments Don’t blame your recording gear if your musical instruments are faulty or out of tune. Check if any instrument needs new strings or heads, fix it and tune it before the session. Pay attention to those old guitar strings and see if you need to restring them as well. Try not to record your guitar with reverb It is never a good idea to record your guitar with reverb unless it's absolutely necessary.It makes more sense to record it dry, especially if you are not sure whether it'll fit with the arrangement. However, if the guitarist is unable to play without reverb, try adding some to his headphones from your software.

2. Don’t ignore the microphone However good your music may be, an awful vocal track will make it a catastrophe. Make sure you use a good microphone as they are the deciding factor while recording vocals. Good-quality cables are a must You don’t get a high-quality recording, with cheap cables. Invest in high-quality equipment, especially cables as they have a say in the overall sound of the record, so don't go cheap. Don’t Rush You can’t rush in creative pursuits. When recording audio, some artists may work under pressure but the majority generally don't. So don’t rush and remember - Perfection takes time. The correct positionis critical If you already have a recording studio, you must be well up on the importance of a good- sounding room and some acoustic treatment for recording great audio. But are you sure about the position of the microphone? Not every position is ideal for achieving the perfect vocal performance, so determine the accurate place for the microphone before you start recording. The position of your monitoring speakers (like the Fluid Audio FX80) also mattersas they will sound different depending on where they are in the room.
