A recording studio is a room or space designed by an acoustician for optimum acoustic properties for the purpose of creating music recordings or voice over work. It consists of a live room (studio) where instrumentalists and vocalists perform; the control room, where sound engineers operate professional audio for analogue or digital recording equipment to route and manipulate the recorded sound; and the machine room, where noisier equipment that may interfere with the process is kept.
A lead record producer is a key person that most recording artists interact with directly and whose duties can include everything from scheduling sessions to collaborating with the artist to create the musical vision that they are trying to bring to life. Record producers often have extensive background in song writing, session musician selection and booking as well as their own unique recording skills and experience.
The main equipment found in a typical recording studio is a computer running Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software – used to sequence electronic music and to edit, process and mix recorded audio. It also includes a hardware mixing console, microphones and stands, and sound baffles that reduce unwanted acoustic effects. Some record studios also offer access to a large collection of external gear that can be plugged in and played by the artist or band.
For aspiring musicians, working in a professional recording studio can be a dream come true. But a dream can quickly turn into a nightmare if the recording is not done correctly, and even experienced musicians have had their work destroyed by bad decisions. An expert producer or engineer can help a new artist avoid these pitfalls and give them the best chance of success.
