A Look At Some Recording Studios Features

By Dan Smith


Musicians, professional voice-over performers, vocalists and others need space where their audio efforts can be captured digitally. Setting up the right recording studio space requires an investment in knowledge and equipment that can be significant. Many performers choose to rent or lease the space from a fully equipped studio, rather than to design and build the space for the purpose of high quality recordings.

When there is a facility which is set aside for the purpose of sound mixing and recording is completed, it is known as a music studio. The recording facility is intended to provide musicians and audio performers with a physical space which permits high quality acoustic results. Acousticians are the professionals who have the knowledge and experience to provide space for acoustic isolation, sound diffusion and acoustic isolation. The surface within the studios must be absorbed or diffused rather than to be reflected back into the room. The quality of the sound is affected by the physical characteristics of the room.

Recording studios London customers need are designed for the sounds such as those of musicians and advertisers who need voice-over recording jobs. Animated features also need to be able to provide dialogue to the characters. Music backgrounds for various projects in television and movies are also necessary. The equipment and technology advances over the past few years help to make the quality of audio results more dependable.

Studios commonly have distinct spaces which are designed for different purposes. The performance takes place in a room called the "live room". There may be rooms where instrumentalists or vocalists perform. In addition to the live room, there is a control room. The control room houses the engineers or producers where the computers or mixing consoles are placed.

The computer equipment has dedicated software suites which can manipulate and route sounds for either digital or analog recordings. Some studios also feature isolation booths in order to accommodate louder instruments such as electric guitars or drums. These booths prevent sounds from the more intense instruments from interfering with sounds coming from other instruments. Alternatively, the isolation booths provide rooms in which recording of vocals or some acoustic instruments.

Factors of the live room itself are critical to the quality of the final results. Microphones capture the sound, but it is also important that the reverberations from the sounds do not "bounce back" from the walls, ceiling or floor of the music studio London room. Acoustics designers ensure that surfaces in the room absorb and diffuse sounds fully. The dimensions of the room are also a factor in the way the captured sounds are recorded. When there are outside sounds at a studio, these must be eliminated as far as possible.

In addition to the surfaces of the live room, attention must be paid to the type and quality of the equipment used for recording. Equipment which is nearly always found in studios includes the mixing console and microphones and the recording equipment itself. Often, there will be a keyboard, reference monitors and an acoustic drum set.

Other equipment which may be found in a studio London locale includes an "On Air" light, a music work station and a digital workstation. Equalizers, compressors and reverbs are also part of the available equipment.
