microphone etc) |

custom beats for your recording. |

step 7:
Master your music to smooth out
the volume levels
Home Recording Tip-
Make sure
you rest your ears before you begin to Finalize
your home recording. If you don't, it may be far
more difficult for your ears to hear smooth
volume levels, and you don't want your recording
levels to be uneven. |
|
step 8:
Save Music, Burn to CD, and Finalize so
you can play your music through other devices
e.g. Computer, CD player
Home Recording Tip-
Always Save Your Music!!! You don't want an
unexpected power outtage to erase the great
music you put your heart into recording. |
|
step 9:Convert
CD to MP3 or Wav file format so you can
distribute your music to a lot of people, and
save money on CD duplication fees. If you still
aren't confident in your home recording skills,
and want to keep a low profile when you record
your music, that's ok. Practice good recording
techniques for fun until you learn to achieve
the professional sounding recording quality that
you want. Believe it....You can record your own
music from the comfort of your home! |
