Recording pure sound outside the studio requires you to have a perfectly soundproofed room, the right hardware, dedicated software, and a quiet computer. All this is possible only if you work professionally in this area.
Necessary
- - microphone;
- - Mixer;
- - sound card;
- - software.
Instructions
Step 1
Make sure you have the right equipment for good quality sound recording. First, you need a high sensitivity microphone with sound amplification, a mixing console, or a computer with a good sound card. You can also use removable portable cards - the sound recorded on them is also quite clear.
Step 2
Also, ensure the complete absence of extraneous noise, for example, street noise, a working system unit (it is best to use the quietest laptop models), do not forget about sound insulation.
Step 3
Select your recording software. Standard or simple utilities will be completely inappropriate here, since most of them have a minimal set of settings that are not suitable for recording clean sound. Your best bet is to use Sony's software utilities. They are not free, but they provide you with a set of essential features.
Step 4
Set up your equipment by connecting the devices first. Use only quality cables supplied by the original manufacturers to connect them. If you are using a mixing console, also configure the included utility as needed.
Step 5
Record audio to a file for verification. Adjust the program and hardware to the ideal, and then create a special configuration file to use it later when recording.
Step 6
In cases where you need to make a sound recording once, use the studio rental services. They usually charge hourly rates. In order to find out where in your locality to find such studios, go to the city portal or forum; you can also contact the employees of local recreation centers to obtain the necessary information.
