I would like to say that the vortex sound is one of the most important components in a rock song’s overall sound. Depending on how the vortex is tuned and what kind of response it has, the perception of guitar sounds and other things can be affected. (In English at the bottom of the page).… Read More »
The best way to decide what to buy for studio equipment is to test and compare different options yourself. If it is expensive equipment, it can be difficult to get exactly what you want to test, but thanks to Audio Test Kitchen, you can at least now try 300 microphones at home from the sofa.… Read More »

I have been thinking about such a solution for a long time to make my video recording setup a little easier and more efficient. In the past, I have used a few different solutions.
