EP: What is it and why you should release one yourself

The older years every artist was working on songs that would be included in his upcoming LP. There were vinyl discs and cassettes. Every album had in average 10-15 songs and it was called LP. I remember when I was younger, every artist released an album every two years and maybe more,because they had to produce their songs and this took much more time that today. As the years were passing by, the competition was bigger and the listener wanted to hear more often from his favo

I have said so many times that mixing is a whole science. There are so many things that contribute so we can have a good mix in our home studio. Nothing is impossible!

Automation: What is it and how it works

As I have said so many times from here and in my videos ,all DAWs are the same with a few changes in their interface. They include functions that are really very helpful tools for our recordings and for our mixes also. Today we are going to talk about automation and how it works. If we want a definition of this term it is exactly what it says. We automate some moves and we get better results. I will try to explain this to you with more details.

?EQ first and then compression or the opposite

In many discussions for mixing ,always comes up this question.Should I first EQ and then compress or the opposite? I want to tell you that there are no exact rules on this subject,but you have to decide what is the best for your song and your mix. If you use EQ first ,then you will get a nicer,warmer sound.With EQ you can fix ,you can improve the sound of your track and then you can compress the EQed signal.If you use compressor first, then you get a very good balance for the

I have talked you about effects in previous posts and videos and how we can use them . Today I want to talk you about a parameter of send effects ,for that reason I want to tell you again about these two categories.

Τι πρέπει να προσέξω πριν την audio ηχογράφηση-Βίντεο

Πολλές φορές μου είχε συμβεί όταν πρωτοξεκίνησα στο home studio μου ( και ακόμα και τώρα μου συμβαίνει αλλά πιο σπάνια) ,να έχω ηχογραφήσει audio κανάλια και να μην τα αποθηκέυω σωστά και μετά να ψάχνω που είναι η συγκεκριμένη ηχογράφηση. Ενα σημαντικό βήμα για να μορούμε να οργανώσουμε τα τραγούδια μας σωστά, είναι να ονομάζουμε τα κανάλια μας. Στο σημερινό βίντεο ,μιλάμε για αυτό ακριβώς και με απλό τρόπο πως μπορούμε να έχουμε ταξινομημένες τις ηχογραφήσεις μέσα σε φακέλου

How to know when your mix is good

We have mentioned so many times how beautiful and creative is to work in your home studio. There are so many advantages but surely are disadvantages also. You may have heard me saying in my videos or in my blog posts that gear doesn’t matter at all. You just have to start recording. You have read in many websites about mixing or you have watched video tutorials for mixing and even you do exactly what you have learned, you don’t have the same results. You have to understand th

Virtual amps (ενισχυτές) για την κιθάρα σου.

Το ξέρω ότι το έχω πει πάρα πολλές φορές και ίσως να γίνομαι γραφικός αλλά το είναι πάρα πολύ σημαντικό και το HomeStudioProject αυτό υποστηρίζει. Ζούμε σε μια προνομιακή εποχή και η τεχνολογία μας δίνει την δυνατότητα να κάνουμε πολλά με πολύ λίγα. Το ίδιο συμβαίνει και στο home studio Μας. Σου έχω πει πολλές φορές πως δεν χρειάζεται να έχεις τον πανάκριβο εξοπλισμό και ορισμένα πράγματα δεν χρειάζεται να τα έχεις καθόλου αν έχεις πρόβλημα χώρου ή κόστους. Για παράδειγμα σήμ

Key commands.You work better

One of the things that we want to achieve in our home studios is to do more and faster. Working in the digital domain, using our DAW ,we often do too many moves for one procedure. For example if we are recording midi or audio we have to move our mouse to press the rec button on our transport and after that we will do the same move to stop recording. There are key shortcuts that we create on our keyboard so we can work more efficient and more productive. Key shortcuts are the

Take notes for better and faster mixes

Taking notes is a very important step to get better mixes. Some of you may say “Are you serious? Why is that so important?” Let me tell you why. First of all you have to know that after a specific time your ears are getting “tired” ,and this is where you have to take a break,or just stop and leave it for the next time you are going to work in your home studio. So I suggest to do this: Take a blank piece of paper or a notepad ,whatever is convenient for you, and before you sta
