There has never been a better time to get into music recording and production. Audio equipment capable of professional-sounding results is now available to more people than ever before, and is much simpler to use than it used to be — but it may not seem like that if you are a beginner facing what feels like a steep learning curve! Sound On Sound are here to help you with that. 

The aim of Basics & Beyond is to help you choose the right gear for you, and acquire the essential skills to make the most of it. There are plenty of ‘everything you need to know’ books that will try to make you ‘an expert in no time’, but what you really need at the start is jus t a clear understanding of the basics: how the essential components of your system work, and which aspects of technique are really important.

So, if you are just getting started, or have been at it for a while and yet still can’t seem to get the results you want, rest assured you’ve come to the right place!

This FREE, highly illustrated, eBook will prove valuable to anyone struggling with the complexities of today’s sophisticated recording technology. The purpose of this 170-page guide is to introduce readers to the essential components of a modern recording system and to explain the recording process in an easy-to-follow way, demystifying the inevitable jargon, both as it crops up, and with a comprehensive glossary.
