(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 25, 2013 ) Beaverton, OR -- Freelancing is a mainstay of the professional world. Writers, developers, and designers have tapped into the freelance market for years, to great effect. Now, the scalable nature of the home studio is enabling freelancing for music professionals.

Before recording technology shrank, musicians had to book time at an expensive recording studio, paying high fees to get professional recordings. Over the years, home recording technology has increased in power, while becoming smaller and easier to use. It's
 

 

 


Pop Filters For Home Recording


no understatement to state that anybody can record music in their own home.

With cheap microphones, pop filters, computers and software, anyone can make recordings. But it is not true that anybody can make quality recordings? And there is a big distinction.

Producing music still requires extensive technical knowledge, and the best recordings have certain physical requirements, particularly the room. A well designed and acoustically treated room is necessary to get the best sounds from recordings, for instance.

So, there is still room for the services that studios offer, even as the traditional model of big studios is out of date. Many artists recognize that trained pros are better suited to producing music. To meet these needs, they turn to freelancers, who utilize their professional studio experience and apply it to the emerging music industry business model. The result is more personal service at a lower rate. Freelancers don't support the overhead of a large studio, and are able to pass the savings on to artists.

Professional grade albums are being produced cheaper and faster than ever before. While some people fear the "demise" of the music industry, it's clear that the market is just undergoing a massive restructuring. The possibilities for artists to get their work out into the world are increasing.

While the market shift is bad news for entrenched music industry personnel, it opens up the playing field to accommodate small businesses and entrepreneurs. The closure of large studios like Olympic and the Hit Factory are not harbingers of the apocalypse, but waves in the changing tide. Many in the music industry would have artists and audiences believe that the sea change is going to degrade the quality of sound because only professional studios with the best gear can make good recordings.

They're missing the point. The point is that there is more room for creativity and individual expression in all parts of the music industry. There has never been a better time to get involved in home recording, especially since the tools to make great sounds are easily attainable for anyone with the means and the desire.
