If you think this post is going to be about how to equip a recording studio like the one Jay-Z works in, than you either think audio equipment is way too cheap, or you have some really high beginner’s ambitions. Either way, optimism is what makes us move forward right? Opening a recording studio is a big step, and congratulations if you’re making that decision. The thing to have in mind though, is that contrary to most things in life, starting an audio recording studio is supposed to be a slow process.
Why, you’ll ask; The answer is very simple: creating music is not something you can do following a pattern; it’s an evolving process, and what you consider very trendy and pleasant to the ear today, may need to evolve into something more modern tomorrow. So, starting your recording studio slowly and upgrading it over time as your needs dictate is the only logical option.
