Whether you are a singer with ambitions of making it big or a composer with plans to sell your music to video game companies, using a professional recording studio is the best way to ensure that you have a sound that will be appealing to your audience. Trying to do it on your own without a lot of experience can end up hurting your career rather than helping it. Leaving it to a professional can also free up your time so you can focus on writing music.
Traditionally, a recording studio is thought of as a large soundproofed complex that includes a live room where the musicians will perform and a control room for recording, editing and mixing the sounds produced in the live room. There will usually be smaller rooms called “isolation booths” present for noisy instruments such as drums and electric guitar so that they do not interfere with the microphones capturing sounds in the main room.
Many of the famous recording studios of the past were renowned for their particular sonic signature. The Columbia Records 30th Street Studios in New York and EMI’s Abbey Road Studios in London are just two examples of studios that became known for their unique sound. This sonic signature was often imparted by the acoustic characteristics of the studio itself or by the skill of its staff engineers.
With the advent of digital audio everything has changed. Most of the equipment that used to fill a large room can fit in a briefcase and is much easier to operate. Even common tools like compression and EQ can be found in software that is readily available on most computers.
