DESCRIPTION:
Home Recording Techniques and Gearis programming from Musicplus: Skill Building for Musicians. Recorded 5/16/10 at East Bay Community Foundation in Oakland, CA.

It has been almost twenty years since ProTools made its debut, ushering in the era of digital recording. More recently, we have seen explosive growth of even more affordable options from Apple's Garageband, to Logic, to Audacity, and SoundForge. Each have given creators more opportunities to record on their own. For those musicians interested in setting up a home recording studio, what are the essential pieces, from software to effects racks to mics? Studio experts will talk about how musicians should allocate limited resources to set up a workable home studio.
