This DVD explains the common techniques you will need in a recording studio. The video covers techniques that are the same with both analog and digital recording: you need to pick the right microphone, put it in the right place, and record it correctly. Examples in the movie include guitar (both electric and acoustic), drums, bass, vocal talent, piano, and violin. By the time you're finished watching the DVD, you'll have seen - and heard - examples explaining direct re cording, gain stages, and level matching. Whether you're recording Classical music, Rock, or any other genre, you'll gain a lot from this video.

Learning the fundamentals of audio recording is absolutely necessary in order to achieve acceptable results. For those who are just starting out with "hobby" recording, this video certainly covers the basics that everyone should know when entering this field. Excellent for the beginner as well as a reinforcing tool for the intermediate! -Jim Treat Parlor Music
The production quality of this video was slick and entertaining. This video is more about learning buzzwords such as "the Pre" while immersing yourself in a deluge of product placements. While there is some instruction, such as for tuning a drum, there is very little information presented here. You are blasted with camera angles and zooms that change with every sentence of the guy wearing the track suit.
Come on, guys. If you're pro audio engineers, please make an instructional video on how to choose and use equipment.
If you want to learn something, check out the audio instructional DVDs from VASST with Douglas Spotted Eagle. They are excellent.
