The Basics of a Home Studio

To record high-quality audio, you need to have a good studio. In other words, you must get the basics correct from the get-go. What follows is a roundup of what you require to set up a home studio that can produce decent quality recordings.

Get the Right Equipment

This is a no-brainer, right? Yes. You have to get the necessary equipment to help you record comfortably. Invest in a computer and configure it properly. Check the RAM and USB port to ensure that it can handle your needs. On top of that, get the essential software including DAW, Logic Audio, Ableton Live, and Cubase.

You will need studio monitors, cables, home theater speakers and an audio card. What’s more? Get a good wireless microphone. That way, you will have the flexibility you require while recording.

Learn How to Use the Equipment

You will not make the most of your studio equipment if you don’t know how to use it. So, before you even start to record, make sure that you can operate everything correctly. Take lessons if necessary. See, the more conversant you are with your recording equipment, the easier it is for you to create high-quality audio.

Get Enough Space

You can’t set up a home studio in your kitchen. Sure, you can do it in your bedroom, but you need to make sure that there’s enough room. At the very least, ensure that you can move from point A to B smoothly with minimal obstruction. Besides, when you have enough space, you can work on your creativity. On top that, ensure that the place you choose is reasonably quiet. Whenever possible pick a room that isn’t entirely square to prevent interference of your acoustics.

The Bottom Line

Indeed, these aren’t the only considerations to make when setting up your home studio but are some of the most fundamental. Other the suggestions above, make sure that you position your monitors correctly. The monitors and your head will be on the same height, forming an equilateral triangle.

Also, turn the speakers toward your ears. That way, the sound will be clear to your ears. Line your walls with thick curtains to absorb the loudness of your audio. Of course, you will keep making improvements and tweaks to your home studio as need be.

5 Places to Buy Instagram Followers

There are so many Instagram sites popping up that offer everything ranging from likes, Followers, comments, and what other types of engagement that takes place at Instagram that it becomes hard to find a place that you can trust so that your signals actually get delivered. So instead of giving you a list of sites dedicated to Instagram, we are going to do things a little different here.

Different as in we’re going to take a look at platforms that offer an escrow service, or that manage the orders for you. Think of Fiverr, Guru, PPH, Upwork, and so forth.

Fiverr – most affordable

At Fiverr you can buy tons of affordable services, starting at only five dollars, I bet that’s where they got their name from. When you buy something at Fiverr they keep the funds locked till the gig is delivered so you never have any risk of getting ripped off by the seller. Easy right?

Guru – inexpensive solution

This is a platform that works a little different than Fiverr, it’s more comparable to a place like Freelancer.com really. You can hire people there that offer their services at a fixed price or you can hire them by the hour. Hourly projects often end up more expensive as the freelancer might be buying time and work less hard so I’d be careful with this one if I were you.

PeoplePerHour

Although the name indicators that you can only hire people by the hour this isn’t true. When I was browsing for Instagram followers I didn’t find that many offers and most what I found were rather expensive so this wouldn’t be my first choice to grow my Instagram account. I have to admit I didn’t spend hours on this so maybe you’ll have more luck.

Upwork

One of the largest platforms out there with the most professional database of freelancers, there are so many options to chose from. Actually to many if you ask me, that I find it rather cumbersome to work with. Because of their reputation, the freelancers feel they can ask any price they want so don’t be surprised to get offers from people that offer to get you Instagram followers for twenty dollars an hour only to end up with a few hundred followers by the end of the week and getting charged hundreds of dollars for that.

Freelancer

Probably one of the most spammy platforms out there. But for something like followers that might be exactly what you needed. I don’t want to sound racist or anything but it appears they recruit most of their workers from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and the likes and those people definitely master the art of botting so instead of messing around with a bot yourself you could just as well hire them to do it for you, often at as little as three dollars an hour!
