You want to make a recording? Great! You just sit down and push the red button and expect the best, right? Yeah. If only it were that simple.

You've heard CDs that sounded awesome. You've also heard music that sounded like trash. What makes the difference?

You don't want to represent your music in a bad way - if people don't like listening to your CD because of quality, your music won't get listened to. It will even give you (or your studio) a bad reputation. Bummer.

What makes the difference between a bad sounding CD and a great one? Here are several reasons:

• Preparation
• Good equipment
• Some knowledge about digital audio
• Interest in how your music sounds

Your sound quality will skyrocket if you do some research, take necessary preparatory steps, use good quality audio gear, and care about your music.

You might think that a website with the name Bedroom-Recording.com would teach you how to set up a bare bones studio in your bedroom, but there's so much more than that here! You need to start somewhere (a bedroom or living room is a great place to get your feet wet), but you are on your way to better results no matter where you record!

At Bedroom-Recording.com I try to let everyone benefit from my experience. I started in a bedroom, used other rooms too, and finally have a modest sized project studio. I also do location recording, something you'll read about around the site as well.

I want this website to be a guide, a booster. Together we can cover the important steps in making a recording you'll be proud of. You have to be willing to learn, spend a few dollars (stuff ain't free!), and take the time to work with it, and I know good things will happen!

Ready? Let's go...
