Simple tips in recording and transmitting can change the impact of the music you have so painstakingly put together. The worst part of this whole exercise is that you will not realize the damage that has been caused, till you have sent the whole thing and the person who has received it tells you what has happened. So, instead of waiting for something bad to happen to your song submit plans, make sure you keep these tips in mind always. Anyone who is good at music is sure to have a fairly good hearing; there are quite a few things that depend on your auditory ability and these are good to practise on a regular basis.
Listen Carefully
Are you able to hear a hum, buzz, or hiss when you have completed your recording? If so, then you have to think again about whether this is the right format that you have used in the recording room. The other common problem that can occur while you are trying to get your music into the right form, is a bumping sound or even other external sounds. These could be sounds that you have no control over; nevertheless, it is important for you to find a way in which you can circumvent the inclusion of such sounds into your recording. For instance, if your recording studio or room is in a busy locality and if the acoustics and soundproofing of the room is not good, you are likely to hear some sounds of vehicles or a stray dog bark or even something as innocuous as a keyboard click.
Sound Proofing
Have you checked out the studio in which you are going to record? Are you planning to do it on your own or are you planning to go to someone professional to get it done? Both these choices are dependent on a variety of factors. There could be simple measures that have a limited impact on the sound and how it can hamper your recording. In a proper studio, there are specific ways of soundproofing a room that might include a certain kind of material that is used for the walls and roof. In case you are not too sure how effective it is, please do a trial before you attempt the final recording. Please do not take anybody’s word for it; instead, check it out by playing it back to know how good the result is.
The equipment that you use can influence the quality of the recording too – so make sure you have the best to support you.
