TRACKING THE BAND
This webcast will illustrate how, with the right tools, you can make tracking, overdub and mix workflow mimic that of a large pro studio, even on a tight budget. Mix technical editor Kevin Becka will track a song, start to finish using an Onyx 1640i and Pro Tools M-Powered on a MacBook Pro. Using iMovie and audio, Becka will break down the recording process, from mic choices and setup on drums, guitar, bass, piano and vocals, all the way through to the mix. He’ll also interface an array of new mics and other gear into the workflow plus great tips on processing.
After the presentation, there will be a live Q&A, straight to your desktop where you can ask Kevin, and representatives from Mackie directly about the experience. If you’re looking to tune up your music production skills, come join us for this special webcast, Tracking the Band, and learn how to make your recordings sound like the pros.
