Real studio shit?
 

Any of yous ever been to a real studio to record ur shit? like ever walked into a place with ur lyrics an beats an then work with a pro to make that stuff like 100% studio quality? what cha got to share bout dis? :grass:

No but I know of a studio down in Albany that I can go to.

Never even seen a real studio. Only studio I've ever used was my apartment like 8 years ago. 'Twas an old, crusty twin mattress stuffed in a beautiful carpeted closet. It was decked out with a state of the art "Rock Band" microphone (from an Xbox 360) to record with. Everything was professionally mixed by an amateur engineer (with absolutely no musical knowledge) on a free Audacity download. All on a shitty, outdated laptop. The production quality was insane. And by that I mean fucking awful.

thanks 4 ur inputs guys.. theres a studio i know of too.. an yes iv only ever recorded in my own home.

Pretty sure Bleu might of at some point, not sure though.

If you’re not renting one out, the reason it being so expensive is because you’re not only paying for to use the quality equipment, but you’re also renting out an engineer as well. Someone to focus on your sound and give it every touch it needs. Some complain about the pricing of it but I’m 100% with it. I’ve been to tons of studios to both record and just to hang out while one of my boys record. But honestly if you’re gonna just walk into a studio with lyrics and a beat, you’re 9/10 unprepared. Especially if it’s an mp3/wav file beat.

If you don’t have a full breakdown project of your instrumental then you might as well record at home because you’re gonna get the same exact quality. You’re not about to just walk into a studio with a beat that came from a YouTube producer from 2004, trash quality and pretend the guys gonna mix your vocals into an already compressed instrumental. Not gonna happen. That there alone is the biggest reasons most artists don’t return to big studios. Not because the studio didn’t give em that sound, it’s because the studio couldn’t give them that sound due to what you have them to work with.

As long as you have trackouts to a beat you wanna use, your vocals can never sound too loud or too low unless the engineer is a complete bonehead. It’s like your vocals will become just as important as a snare or the drum. They’ll fit right in.

Ok punk thanks for the reply, I don't get it tho what do u mean I can't walk in there with ur own beats from YouTube an just record? I thought that's what u could do then leave it to them to mix it an make it sound dope at an real good? But u say no? What else do u need to bring? Or tell them cause I was planning on going in there to record a whole mixtape but get the dude to mix it an stuff I was just gonna .... do what you said is a waste of time pretty much? What else needs to be done?

Also I know it can be expensive but yo if u want to have a proper CD or album dun that u can then go hand out to record lables it's whatcha godda doo. Nah mean.
