Music Triper

When I was a teenager, it took a lot to peel me away from watching MTV music videos. I loved music, and I couldn't get enough of the flashy videos and the larger than life musicians that populated them. As time went on though, it became more and more apparent that though the M in MTV stood for music, it wasn't really their main focus. After a while, I saw less and less music, and more and more game shows. I can't even watch the station today, though I am aware that I am now out of their target age group.



Today, MTV music isn't want it used to be, if you can find it at all. Their schedule is full of reality shows and specials, and finding actually music videos is hard to do. Even worse, the MTV music of today seem to be nothing more than noise, though I guess that just makes me old right? Most of it I wouldn't even label as music, but I am aware that this is just my opinion. I know that those who are younger than me enjoy it; it's just not for me.



I haven't thought a lot about MTV music videos in a long time, but I have started to think about it again. My daughter is getting older and even though I hate the thought of it, I know she will outgrow groups like the Wiggles soon enough, and she will be listening to music that is made for older kids. What scares me is that I can't find any MTV music videos that I would really want her watching. I guess you could call me over protective, but I think kids are growing up way to fast, and I want her to enjoy the freedom of childhood for as long as she can before she is aware of things like sex and trying to act and look older.



The content of most of the MTV music videos makes my skin crawl. Women have come a long way in the past decades, yet you would never know it by watching some of these videos. Self respect seems to have flown out the window, but to be fair, this has always been the case with most of the MTV music videos that have come and gone in the past. I guess it just seems to be getting worse, and the depravity seems to have gotten worse. I don't want her identifying with these women. I know I can't keep her from seeing it forever, but I hope I can hold her off long enough to show her how a real woman should live.

Registration is different to find not in balance. There are two areas where this happens someone who is with the physical registration and what is balanced by SQA, also known as the equalizer. If you are working in your Studio, you want to ensure you're aware these noise levels a both for registering as a whole, make difference in your sound like, turns out at the end are.



The first part of the sound balance comes from physical presence. This is done on the mixing board. With this, there is recorded the need the tools as it traces so that the peak volume is not too high and thus each individual tool to have a natural sound. During the creation of this part of the EQ you want to sure to feel the computer input as well as output, the people across the screen.



The basic concept in this part is to ensure that all are equal. This means that the volume of the same should be. Keep in mind that depending on the lower, more disk space is needed to mix later change the. You don't want that someone up top with her instrument during any part of the recording. Audio control will help you with the registration of input and output.



Earthquakes are the next important part of getting the right mix. This is something, that is achieved by mixing control permanently. During each stage of the process that you want to make sure you have a balance between the high and low sounds and you will dominate others not have a.



There are a number of standards that are met, in order to keep the EQs to a certain height. Based on personal preference, as well as industry standards that are divided by genre. The most important thing in mind to keep; However, it is too strong in comparison to others not to admit a frequency. This means that the lower part of an instrument on the same high-end-be should.



This should be the same for the instruments that are mixed together. If you not some additional bass boost, which comes through the registration or want the piano to dominate over other instruments, ensure that everything about the same volume is. Not only through standardization, mixing and mastering, do but also can envelopes in the individual tools. This will be kept for some parts of the song at a certain level should move back to normal levels dynamically in another part.



The best way to check and see whether all of these components is in order to see how the sound of the monitor. The monitor should be placed above and on either side of the room, so you can hear how to redirect the sound. The low end on the bottom of the screen will tell you if the bass is too high and the high end-I will know if the ends are too high. You can then according to your preferences, to edit an attack.



What whatever your type of music, never start introduced without the balance between individual instruments and everything. The more you know about this process and better mixing EQS CD comes out and it will sound more professional. Look, your preferences and examination standards you an advantage get overall balanced to keep.
