Great Technology is just the Beginning... Acoostic Zoo - Recording Studios Brisbane, www.acoosticzoo.com

For those with a passion for creating home recording studios, great companies like URS, Waves, Universal audio, SSL, Focusrite just to name a few are creating software/dsp systems that speed up the creative process of record production. Great results can be achieved without the hefty investment of the past. The investment on a home recording studios can be rewarding on a creative level, However:-

It must be stressed that great tools without the necessary experience is a common issue amongst home recording enthusiast.

Through much experimentation and perseverence the knowledge of leading recording engineering techniques were formed over time. Many of these techniques remain a well guarded secret by those in the know. However, the strength of all this recording/mixing/production techniques pales in comparison to the importance of having a great song.

IMO everything that is considered great about music has strong foundations that start with a great song. For some people, it can take close to 10 years to become pro - nevertheless, it's a long but rewarding journey.

The point is that great songs are what made studios, artist, managers, record companies successful - not fancy recording equipment. Recording/Mixing is a significant but small piece of the pie.

Keep those great lyrics/songs coming.

Peace.
