What Is Music Production

Music in these modern times is more producing and "make up" then a real talent. Because there is a lot of hi-tech equipment (hardware and software) out there that makes average voice quality into "rock star".

Almost every person in the world listen to music. But many of them did not ask them self how music is made?

In this short post I will try to explain you how music is made, what is music production etc.

First I am going to write about what you need to made music, to produce it. There is quick list :

Personal Computer/PC
Music Making Software (Cool Edit, Adobe Audition, Cubase, ...)
Microphone
Headphones/Speakers
Audio Mixer

That`s all you need to made your own music. All need to do next is record you vocals over beat and let producer to make you voice magic. But how he does that? What is music production??

Music production is a process of finalizing song. What music producer really do is, he place your vocals at the right spot on "timeline" of the instrumental/beat and then just apply some nice effects that will help you so sound like "opera diva" (just kidding).

After all this is done your song is ready to for publicity.

How to become a music producer

When most of the producers above started their careers, being a producer meant getting to work in a professional studio somehow – by hook or by crook.
Often this meant starting out working as a tea-boy or toilet cleaner (!), gradually working your way up to tape-op or assistant engineer, and waiting until one day the the engineer was sick, or stormed out in a huff and you got your “big break” – your one chance to get behind the desk and show the clients why you should be the producer of their next hit…
All that has changed.
These days, anyone can be a music producer, with little more than a laptop, some free software and an internet connection.
Or can they ?
The truth is, these days it may actually be even harder to become a music producer than ever before.
Precisely because all the technical requirements are within almost anyone’s grasp, everyone who wants to record and mix music is doing it – and that means there’s a lot of competition.
Which means it’s hard to get noticed, let alone the chance to work with great artists or gain any recognition for what you do.
So, does that mean you should give up and go home ? No way ! Just be aware you’ll have a tough hill to climb, and you’ll need dedication, commitment, skill and not a little luck.
So maybe it’s not so different from the old days, after all

HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN MUSIC STUDIO

Human Factor

You are always sing under a shower, you sing at job or school, you sing when you exercise, run, walk, you sing everyday! If you do, then I want to share with you some info what are you need to build your own home music studio.

First and most important thing is your passion for music. If you have that passion building own studio would not be problem for you. Because if you want it so much you would not be care how much it will cost. But if you are insure about it you will never build your studio. Because its easy to buy some equipment and get somebody else to do for you.

Second human factor is talent. If you are not talent, do not give up, please do not. If you do not have a talent for singing or rapping so what? You can be a music maker, producer or something else. All you have to do is try and try and try and you will success! If you do have a talent for singing or raping, or beat making or production YOU SHOULD MAKE YOUR STUDIO AS MUCH SOON POSSIBLE! Why? Because you do not want to waste your time, that you could use to increase yours skills as rapper, singer, beat maker, or producer.

Next thing is very important that is persistence and patience. Nothing grows over night, not even today best musicians, producers, beat makers not get success over night. You should put 100% of you if you want to get a result you want! Do never give up please do not. If you spot that it is not going so great, do not worry everyone has their falls and ups! EVERYONE!

Hardware equipment

Well when are you psychologically ready to make your own home music studio first thing you need is some basic equipment. Professional music studios have a lot of equipment, several microphones, several computers, several mixers, high quality Amplifier, anti-noise chamber, high quality sound cards, professional cables, quality headphones etc.

But here I am not talking about professional studio, I am talking about home music studio. Right?

So what equipment do I need to get started?

Well first thing you must have is computer (PC). Most of you have one but you can not take just any PC to do music with. You must have a very powerful processor and a lot of ram memory, because If you want to connect some other music equipment with it you must have a strong PC! Also you must have stable operative system and some strong anti virus software.

When you get a powerful PC next thing you must buy is actually just PC upgrade. That upgrade is professional sound card. Without sound card you can not do a thing, because all other equipment you must plug in into sound card on PC. I recommend to you Audiotrak Maya44 Professional Sound Card. This card is amazing! Maya44 Sound Card have eight output and eight input channels, It is very powerful. This card is made in Korea, but do not worry it is absolutely one of the best sound card on market. It cost just about 160$. Very cheap.

Next hardware you need is mixer. Mixer is device witch you can use as Amplifier, all you have to do is install it correctly and configure it correctly. I recommend to youMixer YAMAHA, EMX 5016CF (A). Yamaha emx 5016CF specs : MAX POWER 4Ω -8Ω : 500W+500W AND 320W+320W! AWSOME!

Next hardware you need is some quality microphone.I recommend to you 797 Audio CR616 Condenser Microphone. It is great quality and very powerful mic. It cost only 203$. Very low price for quality it gives.

If you are music maker or beat maker you should get some midi keyboard. Average price of one midi keyboard is about 200-300$.

Sound Card

Sound card (audio card, Sound card) converts sound into digital signals and converts digital signals into sound through speakers or headphones. Two main parts of the sound card to perform these tasks are digital-analog converter (D / A converter) and analog-digital converter (A / D converter). Simplified main function of the sound card to give better quality sound for listening to music, watching movies, playing games etc

Types of sound cards

As with graphics and network cards can be divided into those that are built into the motherboard (onboard audio) and in the form of cards that plug into the slot (ISA, PCI ...) on the motherboard. All modern motherboards have on board audio, but if you want better sound you can put a special sound card, in which case the on board sound card is disabled (or in the BIOS or via a jumper on the motherboard. In addition to playing audio sound card allows you to record sound for what we still need a microphone and software for recording audio (in Windows there is no such program (sound recorder) but is quite limited capabilities).

Sound Card Connectors

Sound Card connectors are order by color ;

PINK - Microphone input
BLUE- Line in
GREEN- The main speaker connector (output)
BLACK- Rear speaker connector (output)
ORANGE- S/PDIF port, or subwoofer (digital output)

The alternative sound card are USB speakers. The advantages are that the digital signal is transmitted to the speakers so that no sound card and less sensitivity to noise and interference and disadvantages of low quality sound.

Music Applications

here is the list of music applications for music production

This list is an additional extra to go along with our post called "Choosing DAW Software That is Right for You" which is good to read if you are going to be choosing one of these pieces of software. All of these DAWs are a good choice which can be used to create an entire song. This list should help people who are choosing their first piece of DAW software and give a good idea on the vast array of DAW products that are on offer.
As I stated in that previous post, I use the DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) term loosely to mean any piece of software which could be used to edit and record a track from start to finish so there might be software on here which whether it is a DAW or not is up for discussion, but all software listed below has and can be been used to produce professional sounding tracks.
Remember to try each one out before you buy by finding the demo, I have linked to many of the demos below. If no demo is available also try watching video tutorials on YouTube and you will be able to see the interface and techniques being used. Most of these also have a forum where you could go and ask to make sure that they can achieve what you require and also any necessary features. I have included icons to show which operating system the DAW software supports (Windows, Linux, Mac OS).
Good luck in finding the perfect DAW to create your music.
Fruity loops

FL Studio

I hear a lot of people talk about FL Studio being good for beginners and it is good for some beginners and not so much for others. As the name suggests FL Studio is a little loop orientated but as newer versions have come out the software has become more and more like a virtual studio. It still isn't for everybody and is not the way to go if you are going to be doing a lot of recording of audio, but if you are looking for software to program in beats and tracks then it is going to be a great piece of software for you.

Propellerheads Reason

Reason is software which tries to emulate the hardware environment within software. You have samplers, synthesizers, effect and more in a rack which can wired to each other and then add in a sequencer and you have a full electronic music workstation on your computer. Lack of VST support and audio recording abilities have been one of the common aggravations I have heard from Reason users but you can 'Rewire' (connect) the software to another DAWs which has rewire support. Great piece of software for those who want that hardware feel but has a steeper learning curve than others.

Cockos Reaper

Reaper is made by a small number of people and is very inexpensive compared to others DAWs on the market, yet it still manages to include all the necessary requirements for most people. The evaluation version is 'complete and uncrippled' so is worth trying out at only a 4 megabyte download. Most people will fall into the bracket of getting the discounted license too which costs just '$60'. Reaper supports many plug-in types including VSTi's and to beef Reaper up you will probably want to either invest in some plug-ins or find some great free plug-ins to get the most out of the software.

Apple Garageband

Garageband comes with the Apple Mac software pack called iLife. It is an entry-level DAW and simply allows you to record, edit and mix. It is like the stepping stone application to going on to use Logic (see below) as Logic can open Garageband files. Can be extended with various 'Jam Packs' to add new instruments. Not for PC and no support for VST plug-ins.

Apple Logic

Windows is no longer supported by Logic, so you're going to need a Mac to run. Logic is the DAW of choice for many Mac users.
Logic comes complete with many plug-ins and effects. AU plug-ins are only supported and no VST support meaning many use a VST to AU wrapper.

Ableton Live

Ableton attempts to give the ability to be able to play live electronic music and achieves this quite well by using a system of creating clips of music and giving control to change and edit them live. The suite version comes with additional synthesizers, drum machines. The vast array of effect plug-ins mean you will rarely will you feel the need to go for external effects.

Steinberg Cubase

One of the oldest DAWs available and has gone through many changes and redesigns over the years. This was the DAW that first introduced VST/VSTis a long time ago which are still used today. Obviously it is one of the best DAWs out the due to its heritage and that means there are a lot which swear by it.

Steinberg Nuendo

This product is similar to Cubase but has more features that make it more about media production such as video sequencing, 5.1 surround sound etc. For music it is good but unless you need these extras you will probably want to stick with Steinberg's Cubase instead.
