In the past, whenever I’ve been asked to explain the origins of the flanging effect, I’d respond that it came from the fact that you’d slow down one of the three tape machines needed for the original effect by putting your finger on the tape flange. . .but it was John Lennon who actually named […]

Every studio needs a monitor controller, and while most computer audio interfaces have a very simple one included, many times it’s either clunky to use or doesn’t have the necessary features that a pro studio needs. An easy upgrade to almost any playback system is a dedicated monitor controller, and the new Heritage Audio R.A.M. […]

If you’re ever doing post production on a program other than music, you’ve probably been handed a dialog track that was recorded on the phone or in just the worst noisy conditions.

It’s inevitable. No matter how many times you’ve built a studio, you have that “Oops, I forgot,” moment at the end. If you’re lucky, it’s something that isn’t major, but a lot of people have been known to do things they’re sorry for later, like close up the walls before installing the electrical or the […]
