For those who are just starting their creative career, the question often arises - how to independently record music in modern processing, but at the same time use only those opportunities that can be called portable in relation to the modern music business. This can be done using a few tricks.
It is necessary
- - composition;
- - drums;
- - performer;
- - computer programs.
Instructions
Step 1
Select the composition for which you are going to make processing. After that, it's worth contacting the drummer. But if you wish, you can record bass and drum rolls yourself, using the capabilities of modern computer programs.
Step 2
You can record drums live by overdubbing them to a song. After recording, be sure to clean up and review the recording several times for possible errors.
Step 3
Once you've done the drums and bass recordings, you can move on to the most creative moments - recording the bass freestyle section. This recording should also be carried out in several stages. The first one is to record a bass guitar. At the time of this recording, you need to focus on the bass.
Step 4
If you decide to process the composition in a more melodic form, you should think about using a guitar solo, etc. Here you should focus only on yourself and your tastes.
Step 5
After listening to all this and mixing it into one song, you need to record your voice. It is applied last. This step must be approached with a high degree of responsibility.
Step 6
Perform the mixing stage efficiently and deliberately. You shouldn't rush here and it's better to double-check everything, than then try to fix or record the composition again.
Step 7
Installation takes a very long time. For it, you can use standard free programs, of which there are a lot today on the global network (Adobe Audition 2.0, Sony Sound Forge 8.0 or Audacity 1.2.4b). If you want to download something more professional and worthwhile, you will have to pay.
Step 8
Align all tracks. The bass can be tightened up a bit and made the way you like it. Then freedom for creativity opens up - equalizers. After creating all those effects that you like the most, you will get a new composition.
