Five 500 Series Modules For Under $500
CHAMPAGNE TASTE AT A SPARKLING WINE PRICE.
What is it about the 500 series format that makes it so popular? I guess for some, it's building modular setups that cater exactly to what they want to record. For others, it's being able to easily switch out modules for different applications. But underneath it all, being able to have "a bit of this and a bit of that" all in one rack is pretty damn...
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...
The Everything Recording Guide to “Going Pro”
So you’ve notched a few years under your belt as an audio engineer...
You’ve been recording for friends, acquaintances and friends-of-acquaintances.They’re all happy with the results, one even referred you to some friends. You’ve mixed some cuts for a local post-rock band, polished some EDM mixes, edited a local voiceover artist and even tried your hands at mastering your own demo. People told you that it sounded “pretty badass” and that it “hangs in...
A Fresh Look At The PreSonus Quantum 4848
Behold! The PreSonus Quantum 4848 in all its minimalist glory.
NO FRILLS. ALL THRILLS.
Twenty years ago, the Digidesign (now Avid) MBox was a milestone in the home studio DAW market. Prior to the year 2000, audio interfaces tended to be straight-ahead affairs with nothing more than line level inputs and outputs. But the MBox, with its quirky monolith form factor, bundled ProTools LE software and "designed by Focusrite" preamps gave aspiring producers a complete...
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...
Guerrilla Recording and Mixing with Nathan Daniel Music
There is that point all of us find ourselves when we know just enough about tracking and mixing to be dangerous. We’ve become aware that there is specific gear that pros use and various forums, articles, as well as ads for products all telling you “you need this or your mixes will never sound like (insert the “IT” mix engineer of the time)”. All the while you’re simply trying to get some semblance...
Exclusive: Interview with Abandoned Pools
I've been a huge fan of Abandoned Pools since their first album Humanistic. Today, Tommy is releasing his long awaited third full length album Sublime Currency and was generous enough to give us an exclusive interview.
What makes this particular interview perfect for this site is that Tommy writes, tracks, produces, engineers, and mixes the project from start to finish. Very rarely do you see an artist that versatile and committed to putting out...
BEAUTIFUL FREAKS: FREAKSHOW INDUSTRIES PLUG-INS
THE FREAKS ARE ALRIGHT
I know I’ve been somewhat outspoken on this at times, but I can get a little bored with the miasma in the world of plug-ins. Oh, a new 1176 limiter? Much excite! Oh, but wait - NO! There's a fifth “ratio” button and a variable attack time?!?! Excuse me while I mop up all this liquid excitement that’s pooled up around my chair.
That’s why, in this redundant world of clones...
Piano 4 Producers Masterclass
Some of us have a sound in their head but just can't quite get it out. We spend hours with the DAW pencil, drawing notes for chords so why not actually learn the chords you hear in your head? Piano 4 Producers Masterclass can have you on your feet in no time.
Have you ever felt limited by your musical knowledge and abilities?
Have you ever gotten stuck trying to figure out the music in...
