Professional home recording studio

A professional home recording studio, a space where you can record instruments, vocals, whatever you need with the highest level of quality. This type of home study must have special attention to the following elements:

What do you need if you record? You are a singer, guitarist, drummer or all of the above. Well, you have to take into account the system and the number of inputs you need to record.

Do you want professional quality at home studio location? For professional quality you will need a microphone and a top-notch audio interface. For example, a Neumann TLM102 microphone and an RMEarrow interface guarantee high-level professional sound quality.

What is the space where you are going to record? Do you have ambient noises?

Recording space is the most important thing. For proper voice recording you will need to have the recording room equipped with acoustic treatment.

How to set up a cheap home recording studio

Now, if we want to make music from home and with a small budget it will be more complicated to obtain the best high sound quality. There are many brands on the market such as Neewer with its neewernw700onw800 model, which is one of the most economical microphones on the market and with quite decent quality for its cost.

Regarding interfaces, there are a lot of cheap manufacturers, most of them of very poor quality. HEHEHEHE Although there are a number of very good quality interfaces like the new SSL2 and also the Audientes interface, very good for its price. Brands like Focusrite are still not the best option even if everyone has it. We, who have 20 years of using all types of interfaces, know the different varieties in terms of sound quality and digital conversion of recorded instruments.

Don’t let the brands fool you!

How to make your recording studio cheap homemade

A cheap home recording studio without looking cheap, plus good sound quality. It’s all about budgeting well and also being creative to create the perfect space for your home recording studio.

You will need to purchase at a minimum an audio interface, a microphone, an XL cable, and a microphone stand. We assume that you already have a PC, some headphones and some speakers. NOTE: You may also need additional cables and adapters to connect the headphones and speaker you have. Any speaker with line input (Minijack) will work luxuriously.

The idea is to spend as little as possible, so to save a little on the budget, use a Sock instead of a pop filter. Make sure they are new or freshly washed socks. Different thicknesses of socks for different voice intensities. The idea would be a medium thick sock. Of course, if you have $10, we recommend including a type filter in your home studio budget.

Well, we would already have all the elements that will allow us to record with respect to equipment. Now we need an app to record. The best free recording apps we recommend are Pro Tools First and Akai MPCBeats.

Home recording studio

To record Rap you should keep in mind that the only thing you need to record are voices. Therefore, the most essential thing will be good for you to be able to record your home studio. You will need a microphone (with its xlr stand and cable) you will also need a USB interface to be able to record on the computer and if you like rap you should try the free Akai MPCBeats professional recording studio program.

The equipment of a home studio will depend on what you need to produce and record. From a microphone, a sound interface and headphones, or even if you need amplifiers, microphone preamplifiers and of course, you probably need acoustic treatment.

Necessary equipment for home recording studio

Computer: Key piece and brain of your recording studio, it is where you run the audio recording and editing program.

A DAW: From the acronym Digital Audio Workstation, it is the name given to computer programs aimed at recording and music production.

Sound Monitors (Speakers): A fundamental part of the studio, it is where you will listen to everything recorded and thus hear every detail when editing the audio. It is important to differentiate conventional loudspeakers from studio monitors. Studio monitors offer unaltered sounds in their tonal balance, which is flatter and purer in terms of how it sounds compared to other devices.

Microphones: For recording voices or instruments in your home recording studio. You will have to choose between dynamic microphones (ideal for spaces with more noise) and the other alternative condenser microphonewhich is ideal for recording voices, it is also a very sensitive type of microphone and requires use in a room free of noise that contaminates the recording. (Noise from cars, neighbors, etc.)

Headphones: To record you need to listen to the playback (track/instrumental) in the headphones so that this way the microphone picks up the sound of the voice only. Recording studio headphones should be closed back headphones.

Cables: You will need a USB cable for the interface, Jack cables to connect the speakers and you will also need the XLR cable to connect the microphone.

You will also need a microphone stand and anti-pop filter.

A homemade home studio can be built in any space in the home that does not have noise or that disturbs the neighbors.

Setting up a recording studio at home is not that difficult, nor is it that expensive. The truth is that today anyone with an interest in making music can build a recording studio at home. The financial investment will depend on the results and quality you hope to achieve in your musical productions.

Acoustic treatment for your home studio

The acoustic treatment is made up of typical foam, wood or fiberglass panels, which can absorb the natural verberation of the room, achieving a drier and more unchanged sound.

Musky and record in your home studio, as long as you keep the sound in the room as neutral as possible. In this sense we can say, acoustic treatment is fundamental for your home studio as much as the microphone and computer. It helps us reduce the sound bounce off the wall and prevents the bounce from affecting the recording.
