COMPRESSORS, COMPRESSORS EVERYWHERE
It's weird, we hadn't reviewed a hardware compressor in a while and then, seemingly out of nowhere, a month doesn't go by where I'm not wiring up a new box of chips, bulbs, and wires to fawn over. You'd think I'd be...
OF METAL AND IMMORTALITY. THE TERRY DATE INTERVIEW.
Sure, Quiet Riot may have sang “Bang Your Head”, but Terry Date has made a hundred records that literally MAKE you do it. While some producers have careers, Terry Date has carved out a legacy. As the sonic architect of pivotal albums like Pantera’s “Vulgar Display Of Power”, Deftones’ “White Pony” and Soundgarden’s “Louder Than Love”, his influence is still heard on just about every heavy artist and album out there today.
With Terry...
THAT DISNEY GLAMPLE IS HASHED : 11 NEW AUDIO TERMS FOR 2021
"Mojo." "Warmth." "Punchy." "Forward." Few professions trade in the glut of buzzwords, idioms and analogies quite like audio production. These pieces of hazy phraseology serve not only to describe the seemingly indescribable, but force others to nod along knowingly, lest you discover they have no idea what the hell you're talking about.
But this year, EverythingRecording is turning the tables. There's no better buzzword than the one you create yourself and then unleash upon...
LIKE… REALLY, REALLY BIG: ARTURIA V COLLECTION 8
In Douglas Adams' "Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy", the titular guidebook explains the endless expanse of outer space as follows: "Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is." For the DAW-based keyboard and synthesizer enthusiast, Arturia's V Collection, now in it's 8th edition, represents a collection of instruments that seeks to answer just how endless a concept like "endless" is.
V Collection 8 is, put another way, a...
Demystifying Acoustics with Jeff Hedback – Part 3
This is Part 3 of a 4-part series. To start from the beginning, visit Part 1.
When we left off in Part 2, we built the space, determined the mix position, and measured the room for proper treatment. We also ended with a bit of a cliffhanger on how we were going to treat the room. We had an initial plan but circled back due to a few factors. In part 3, we look...

Spotlight: LLANE-A
Every once in a while, you have a conversation with someone that you feel others need to hear. The other day, I was going back and forth with a good friend of Everything Recording, LLANE-A, and found his back story so compelling, we had to share it. The resulting article shows that sometimes, producers, engineers, and artists genuinely don't realize how much harder creating music is in other areas.
Who is LLANE-A

NAMM 2022: ELECTRONIC BOOGALOO
We'll be honest here, virtual tradeshows are not our thing. That's why we chose to sit out our annual NAMM wrapup for the past two years of pandemic-based societal collapse. But this year, facemasks and bear spray in hand, we traveled to sunny Anaheim, CA, ready to again report back with the world's biggest gizmo orgasm. Manufacturers big and small from around the globe, hocking their latest wares over the world's loudest trade...
Demystifying Acoustics with Jeff Hedback – Part 1
Before you press the BUY button on whatever newfangled piece of signal chain you think is going to "up your mix game," give Part 1 of this series a read. You may find the source of your woes has nothing to do with the voltage and "1's" and "0's" coming out of your speakers.
Does This Next Part Sound Familiar?
Let me lay out a scenario for you. You've reached the "consciously incompetent" phase of...
