Nelson (known for his work with Colbie Caillat and Jason Mraz) discusses 5 crucial concepts found inside Warren Huart and Jerry Hammack\u2019s #1 Best-Selling book &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/homestudiorecording.com\/\">Home Studio Recording: The Complete Guide<\/a>.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>These are tips you probably won&#8217;t find in conventional audio textbooks.<\/p>\n<p>They are the <strong>lessons learned from years of hands-on experience<\/strong> in the music industry: producing, recording, mixing, and working with artists every single day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some of these tips might surprise you! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So, let&#8217;s dive right in&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. The psychology of working with artists is just as important as your engineering skills.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Especially when first starting out, our main focus is on honing our craft. We want to learn how to achieve the absolute best sound imaginable.<\/p>\n<p>While building skills is crucial, and we encourage every engineer to do so, there\u2019s a second layer to music production, wich is equally important\u2014the art of working with artists!<\/p>\n<p>Music production is a creative process, so the way you conduct yourself in a session, how you communicate with artists, as well as your ability to inspire amazing performances and ideas are crucial skills to be honed.<\/p>\n<p>Artists tend to prefer to work with engineers who are a easy to be around,\u00a0 great communicators, and who manage to create an inspirational studio environment.<\/p>\n<p>So next time you run a session, pay extra attention to this topic!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Gear is not everything.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>On our quest to create top-notch recordings and mixes, it&#8217;s easy fall into the trap of relying on gear to make it happen.<\/p>\n<p>A new plugin is released, which sounds promising? &#8211; We gotta have it.<br \/>\nWant to add a 6th guitar to your existing collection of 5? &#8211; Why not?<\/p>\n<p>The fact is, compared to performance, skill, and creativity, gear plays a minor role in the quality of your music.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of chasing the latest and greatest gear, master the equipment you own and build a studio that perfectly aligns with your production style and the artists you work with.<\/p>\n<p>Or, as Eric Valentine (Good Charlotte, Queens Of The Stone Age) put it in \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/homestudiorecording.com\/\">Home Studio Recording: The Complete Guide<\/a>\u2019:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u2018I only want things at my studio that I absolutely have to have. There is no excess here. It\u2019s really good. There\u2019s something about it that makes the process go forward.<\/em>\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Always be recording.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Is the band rehearsing in the studio?<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Hit record!<\/p>\n<p>Is the singer warming up for their \u2018real performance\u2019?<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Hit record!<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, the most magical moments happen when you least expect them. And if you&#8217;ve missed your chance to capture them, it\u2019s dang near impossible to get them back.<\/p>\n<p>In today\u2019s day and age, it costs you absolutely nothing to record as many takes as you like. So be sure you\u2019re always tracking.<\/p>\n<p>Sowhen the drummer plays a super cool fill by accident &#8211; you\u2019ll have it ready!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Less Microphones is More.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In today\u2019s day and age, the track count in our DAWs is unlimited and high-quality microphones are a lot cheaper than they used to be.<\/p>\n<p>So why not put up 30 mics in a session?<\/p>\n<p>The fact is, the more mics you put up, the more likely you are to run into phase issues (sound waves canceling each other out).<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why, counterintuitively, a setup with a few well-placed microphones will often sound bigger and more \u2018alive\u2019 than one using a lot of microphones.<br \/>\n&#8211; Try it out!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Commit to your ideas.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When you have a sound you like, commit to it and move on.<\/p>\n<p>Leaving yourself with too many options can get you into a huge mess, and you are likely to lose your musical vision in the process.<\/p>\n<p>Marc calls this \u2018the Devil&#8217;s triangle.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Not committing to sounds and a \u2018we can et to that later\u2019 mentality heavily limits the way we express ourselves.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Remember: There is beauty in imperfection.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A lot of super successful records were the result of happy accidents or even mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>Perfection isn\u2019t what we strive for with music. It\u2019s expressing an energy, a feeling in the moment, that our listeners can relate to.<\/p>\n<p>So: Commit to your ideas.<\/p>\n<p>With time, you will gain more confidence, learn what works for you and what doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Committing is the fastest way to grow as a producer&#8230; and by committing you&#8217;ll make room for magic to happen.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p
