My Transition To A Digital USB Mixer
After I finally switched over to a digital USB mixer, plenty of my buddies have been very disappointed in me. Of course, they are all garage rock music snobs. They believe in making use of a low fidelity, analog audio mixer and cassette recording gear wherever possible. If you ask me, it just would seem absurd. Acquiring a decent audio mixer, a digital audio recorder, and the newest studio equipment is one thing that many music performer desires.
You can have a hard and organic sound on digital equipment just as effortlessly like with analog gear if you wish to. It's not like you need to make everything sound ready-made if you don't want to. Having good audio mixers and receivers enables you to do exactly that if you want to, nevertheless. It is all about getting the most creative choices possible.
Having said that, I was rather comfortable with using my analog audio mixer apparatus. It consumed a fair chunk of time0 and cash to build a new audio recording facility. I have already been utilizing the same 8-track recorder for a great number of years after all, that I have learned to get used to all of its quirks. It's the same for the audio mixer.
A digital USB mixer is totally something different. It is tough to get familiar with something so clear and accurate. Then again, when I did get familiar with it, I was definitely grateful for it. I have more control all over the music than previously. Everything would be at just the sound level I required. It was a big transition for me, but one that I have coped with well enough.
The audio USB mixer is just one component of getting a decent professional audio setup. The true linchpin of it is getting the PC audio recording software established and working correctly. Effects that formerly required a specific recording round to set up, thousands of cash worth of equipment, and specialized microphones can now be simulated with a great level of precision in most audio recording software. Overall, it is well worth the effort to be in the loop with the new technology.
