If You Don't Record Cause Your Audio's Ass...
 
... shut the hell up.

I can't believe how many people don't record cause of their quality or whatever. I just want to say - regardless how terrible your equipment is, you CAN make decent music. Peep "You gon love me" on www.soundclick.com/phenominall and listen to that quality. I didn't have a dope mic, and I didn't have a booth, and I didn't have an engineer.

Here's how it was done.


Mic: $4.99 Walmart computer mic


Booth: Driver seat in my whip, laptop on my lap, $15 headphones, holdin microphone.

Beat: Jacked off a p2p.

Program: Cool Edit Pro 2.0 (Which any cat can get free)

Editing tips: Only the ones I pulled off THIS site.

It ain't perfect, but it sounds pretty damn good considering what I used. If your audio is wack, work on some tips or something, cause damn - I didn't have much when I did that, but I worked on jus a few tips, and voila - half decent audio. word.

well...I started out with a cheap ass computer mic with a toilet roll on top of it covered in nylons as a pop filter...Then, I switched to the standard Radio shack dynamic mic....Now, I'm using a condenser mic and my editing/mixing technique has elevated as well = good quality.

So, jus keep recording...I agree, NO EXCUSES.

I did too...but before i started rapping with it i needed a shit...and that was the only bit of loo paper i had left...so i bought the socom mic coz it meant less hassle when needing to supply the mic of bog roll...now i have a reminder on my toilet that says "fill up" when i'm down to my last roll :thumbup:

I don't record on my computer because the quality's shit. But that's only my personal preference, as I like my music to sound good. However, I do have access to places where recording quality is a lot better, so I choose to record there instead.

lol word everyone be raggin on me cause my quality every time im on a track...
shit dont stop me from spittin though :cool:

Past Tense 11-07-05 05:03 PM

yeah that sounds pretty good for what it is but you cant stop my mixing skills when i record with that kinda mic

G Deuce 11-07-05 05:33 PM

Shit, that was similar to my set up, and niggas couldnt get pass "your quality is not that great" when they drop a response on my songs. You would think that they would know that a person would notice that after so many tracks.
