MAKING BETTER MUSIC<br />
MIXING AND MASTERING TIPS • PART III<br />
by Harvey S. Grant<br />
I t’s <strong>2016</strong> and project studios have become as common as the<br />
Foreman Grill. Honestly, a laptop, headphones, audio interface,<br />
microphone, and a midi keyboard is all you need to get started<br />
to make and record your own tunes at a whim in these modern<br />
times. Although, it is true that creating music is as easy as<br />
playing a video game, making “good” music that people actually<br />
want to listen to can be as daunting as programming a video<br />
game. Regardless of the challenges, making music should be a fun<br />
endeavor especially when your music starts to sound good. That<br />
is why I have scoured the internet as well as drawn from personal<br />
experience with audio engineering to bring you tips to help you<br />
create better music.
