    first off, i will like to thank the initiator of this forum. its nice to have a place to share ideas and issues in this field. for me am kind of dynamic in my use of plugins but i have really stuck with waves and fabfilter for mixing and right now am having a little romance with the new neutron 2 from izotope. well reasons why i like the neutron is take it has this automatic mixing feature that gives u a kind of start suggestion to direct you...for mastering i work with ozone 8 and T-racks 5. both have similar track and reference auto match but the ozone 8 can auto master ur track spot on with different track style presets. keeps my hands away from the knob when am lazy.

Control Room - Setting Up In Cubase 5

Image
Our last post covered the relevance of a control room mixer in a small studio and how it can impede the wearing out of physical knobs and faders. This post takes a look on how to set up a simple monitor and headphone control room mixer on Steinberg's Cubase 5. We'll also explore a more manual way of achieving this on just about any DAW even though most already have a set up for it. Setting Up a Monitor and Headphone Control Room Mixer in Cubase 5  1.

Producer or Beat Maker

As advancement in technology over the decades has resulted in the simplification and affordability of the music production process, the word "Producer" has also evolved in meaning and usage over time. Gears like the Alesis Digital Audio Tape (ADAT) recorder,   Akai MPC's and Rolands range of portable synthesizers and drum programmers like the TR-808 are just a few in a host of other revolutionary audio equipment that brought music production to the everyday musician. In the digital realm, personal computers have become much more powerful and Steinberg's VST technology along with other Digital Audio Workspaces (DAW's) have made mixing "in the box" (ITB for short) a reality. The 21st century producer can literally make great sounding instrumentals with only a laptop! This change is however more evident in hip-hop and other electronic genres of music. So who's a music producer and what's his job?   Traditionally, music producers can be...

AWOOF!

So I did a little research on the Nigerian slang "awoof" and guess what? I still wasn't able to find its origin (hehee), but I luckily stumbled upon this phrase "awoof dey run belle", cool. But there's one awoof I know of that has no purging side-effects, shall we? Solace House Media is an audio production outfit that has consistently made concerted efforts over the years to diversify the Nigerian audio industry. You will see their footprints in popular music, movies, video games and even audio e-commerce in the likes of  SHM Pro Audio . Apparently, they still want more diversity and have taken the bold step of creating their own  Audio Sample Pack , something hardly seen in the Nigerian audio realm. They went as far as sampling a vintage drum machine of the early 90's to capture it's rich and retro sounds so that today's producers can add that feel to their recent works. The  Yamaha RY10  is a highly praised rhythm programmer, deliver...
