Solutions to your audio production

I have a fascination with the music and audio industry. From the early years of audio production – with its free-spirited environment but limited recording gear – to the modern era where every style goes and every recording technique is valuable; from the era of the 8-track to the power usage of infinite Pro-Tools tracks, the recording process has always captivated me.

With these brief articles, I'll tackle some of the basic issues of audio technology. Like I said, the goal here is to assist those who do not know much about the mechanics and workings of recording an album. Essentially, I hope to enlighten the reader and help spark ideas.
