Recording ? Or Good Recording
Recording it’s an art” for quality sound recording, we need good quality microphones and the right environment. quality audio can be recorded only in a controlled recording environment
- Adjust the settings of the microphones or recorder according to the ambiance.
- Use a microphone screen to prevent the plosive sounds “p” or “t” or “d” can ruin your recording
- Use a microphone stand Some podcasters like to record with the microphone in their hands. Unless holding the mic is necessary, avoid that technique. Another common microphone-stand mistake is connecting it to a surface your hands or feet easily touch. If it’s a desk-mount stand, try connecting it to a nearby piece of furniture that’s not contacting the desk. Or, if it’s a floor-mount stand, make sure the feet rest on carpet or padding.
- Otherwise, the small movements you make during recording can transfer up the stand and into the microphone, which produces distracting sounds.
- Select an audio interface Although many recommend using a mixing board, I’ve found that the never-ending knobs create more headaches than freedom. The simplest solution is to plug your microphone into an audio interface, which converts your analog microphone sound into digital, so your computer can understand it.
- Back up your recordingsSome people prefer to avoid a computer and record it into a small recording device. I often do this myself, after having one too many recording sessions ruined by computer glitches. I know of an author whose power went out while he was recording an audiobook. He lost four hours of recorded audio! You can avoid that exact situation by recording into an external recorder. Or better yet, log into a computer for convenience and add an external recorder as a backup, just in case. One of the fastest ways is to use an XLR splitter, which will split the signal into both the audio interface and the external recorder. If you have multiple sources, running output from the interface into the recorder is a great way to use it as a secondary backup.
