Lesson 3

              When I got into the studio today my mentor was doing some cleaning he showed me old tapes that he needs to get rid of they are all obsolete, after this interesting event we started the day lesson with phasing he showed me by opening protools how sound can be out of phase after recording and what to do to rectify it. We went through the features of the compressor they use in the studio " Distressor EL8" we experiment the difference between a compressed and uncompressed sounds I understood that compressor operates by compressing sound that are too loud to be quieter and those one that are too quiet to be louder very interesting .

      Furthermore he explained how a rap artiste sent his music  to him to be mixed through internent and when done he should send it back through the same medium, he warned me against too much sending back and forth a project since anytime u send a project through the internent you compress the original recording this may have affect the final production.
