Music today is beyond what it has ever been in terms of the equipment available for recording and creating your own sound, entirely from the comfort of your home. In just a small reserved space could become a wonderland of opportunity for a musician. The first basic equipment most of us have access to is a computer. From there, the programs available range from Ableton live and Protools, to Apples very own Logic Pro. The amount of recording microphones available from online stores like Long and McQuade are endless and the price points start low and then go as far as your imagination can handle. For a trained musician, these tools will take your music to the next level. Artists today such as Canada’s very own DeadMau5 started on these very softwares, and now have upgraded home studios to the point where the sounds he achieves at home far exceeds any studio he could travel to! With world-wide pandemics, along with travel fees and pure ease of access, creating music from home has never been a better or safer idea. It is possible to learn all of these skills from your home and skip the hourly recording and engineering feess, even if you need to send your work out to get mastered you will still be saving money this way, and you are still able to send files out for mastering via internet instead of a physical meetup!
