Technology


Technology is great and I love using it. I am a musician so I love the technology we have for music I think its fantastic how far technology has come; it has come so far that it makes music much simpler. The recording industry has improved a lot ever since the Beatles recorded there first album. on a  BTR two track machine. Which originated came from World War Two. This seems like total garbage if you but it next to a studio that we now use. Not counting that now we can record from the comfort of our home with such great programs like Logic and Pro Tools.

So whats in a studio? Well a lot of things if we was to go into detail, but we are not. A music studio is a place were you record your music. A studio has things like a mixer, midi, microphones, good monitors, keyboard, and good software such as Pro Tools.

For guitars players technology has been great for them. As a guitar player you will use guitar pedals which will change the sound of your guitar. Now days we have such technology that Line 6 has come up with a online community were you can create your own guitar sounds and post them online for other people to use, you can also use sounds from other people. This is fantastic because thanks to technology it brings musicians around the world together. It also makes it easier for us, especially if you are looking for that specificity sound for a certain song, riff, chorus.

Now Line 6  has a app where you can plug your guitar straight into your IPhone/IPod/IPad and play from there and get your customized sounds. This the great benefits technology has on us musicians, not only us but also audio engineers and sound producers/ songwriters.
