Demystifying Acoustics with Jeff Hedback – Part 2
In Part 1, we discussed the misleading paths that every engineer initially faces when the mix doesn’t translate. We also brought in an important ally – Jeff Hedback, owner of HD Acoustics. Part 2 brings in Everything Recording’s new studio space and all of the groundwork you need to lay before even considering what’s going on the walls. With the introductions out of the way, let’s get to the good stuff.

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...
PREAMPS: A NEOPHYTE’S GUIDE
Today, I'd like to introduce our newest contributor to Everything Recording. I was browsing the Reddit r/AudioEngineering sub and saw an incredible post by B. Church. He posted a very concise writeup on something we all get a little too caught up in - Preamps. While this website deals in announcing the latest and greatest new piece of gear, sometimes we all need to recenter our perspective. I reached out to B. Church and...
A Fireside Chat With Howard Benson and Chris Lord-Alge
Sure, we can go on all day about STLTones Tonality. In fact, we just did. But we figured, wouldn’t it be better to talk to the engineering ears and mixing minds behind the sounds? Chris Lord-Alge and Howard Benson took some time to sit down with us and give their take.
Just give us a little background on how Tonality started?
HOWARD: Chris has been in the plug-in business a very long time, and I...
2020 NAMM Wrapup
After a whirlwind weekend in Anaheim, CA the ER.com crew are back to report on not only what we saw at this year’s four-day bacchanal, but what we didn’t. (Bryan promised us Magic Mountain if we were good - sadly, we were not. Blame the $2.99 Mango Bahama Blast Margaritas at the Applebee’s across the street from the Comfort Inn)
Of course there was the usual smorgasbord of the newest, hottest, latest, bigger-faster-louderest gizmos...

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...
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
LLANE-A (pronounced Lane-A)...

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...
