How Would Recording Live Change the Industry
I was just wondering what would happen if we rolled back the clock to
late 50's early 1960's and all Rock, RnB, Country, and Pop recordings had to be done either A Live all at once or B all the instruments then 1 overdub with vocals. What if this was the only cool way people could record. What would happen? GT. |

GT. 1) It would put a lot of bedroom "studios" out of business. *If they recorded the whole group and the room sound, they'd need a decent room. 2) It would put a lot of "artists" out of business. *They would have to learn to sing/play the entire song all the way through. 3) It would absolutely maim Rap. *Imagine sitting there and playing the same 8 beat figure for 3 minutes! *They'd all be dead from shooting each other in frustration. #3 That's funny!! |

Engineers would figure out a way to work the way the musicians wanted to work (or go out of business). Are you suggesting legislation making overdubbed recordings illegal? -- "Today's production equipment is IT based and cannot be operated without a passing knowledge of computing, although it seems that it can be operated without a passing knowledge of audio" - John Watkinson Drop by http://mikeriversaudio.wordpress.com now and then |

" Uproariously funny, at least STan's piece, wouldn't know about the youtube referenced. But, all these rappers would have to think about a job shift, maybe to something like janitor.

When asked about how best to approach one-track-at-a-time mix-down-later recording, he said: that's not music ...it's a BLOODY science project! Later... Ron Capik -- |
