Hi my name is Gregg Clemons with Pro Audio Home Studio, and as the site name suggests, I am dedicated to helping you find the right professional audio recording gear for your home studio.
As a singer/songwriter, I recorded two albums for CBS Records, and was fortunate to be able to work with some of the best musicians, producers and engineers in the world.
People like Jerry Scheff , who played bass for Elvis for 8 years on songs like “Burnin Love”, “Suspicious Minds”, and played with the Doors on “Roadhouse Blues” on the Morrison Hotel album. John Entwhistle, from The Who, came in and played bass on a session. Great drummers like Terry Bozzio with Missing Persons and Frank Zappa. Legends like Ian Wallace, who played drums for King Crimson and Bob Dylan, plus tons of others artists. Ed Green, who played drums for The Jackson Five’s “Shake Your Body Down”. Keyboard players like Ian Underwood from The Mothers of Invention, and Jai Winding, who played with Stevie Nicks and countless other recording sessions. The legendary Nicky Hopkins who played with The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, and The Jeff Beck Group played on two songs, plus Al Kooper from Blood Sweat and Tears played Hammond organ on a session. Great producers like Paul Gurvitz from Gun, Pete Solley, who produced The Romantics and Peter Frampton, and Mack Reinhold, who produced The Electric Light Orchestra and Queen, plus Steve Brown, who engineered for The Rolling Stones, and produced Elton John. Terrific guitar players like Rod Stewart’s guitarist, Robin LeMesurier, and the fabulous Jeff “Skunk” Baxter who played with The Doobie Brothers and Steely Dan, plus on more albums than you can count.
It was great to watch these pros work up close. The engineers did so much with the basic gear like E.Q.s, compressors, and mic placement. They really were experts at their craft.
When I was much younger, practically no one could afford to build their own professional recording studio. The equipment was so expensive and took so much maintenance to calibrate and keep in good working order that it was simply out of reach for most people.
Those who did have studios had to spend all of their time recording other musicians, and rarely had time to produce their own music, if in fact they were musicians themselves, and that was the biggest problem. Finding an engineer who knew how to make music that sounded like what you were hearing on the radio or your favorite albums seemed nearly impossible. So many engineers were so into the “technical” part of the gear, they really overlooked the music and how to make the vision of the songwriters and musicians come alive.
Today you can be your own studio master. With a relatively small amount of money, you can have all of the tools that the pros use to realize your musical dreams.
I eventually studied an audio engineering course that was being taught at a very good local studio, and put my own home studio together. I needed to be able to work on my music day or night without worrying about how much it was costing me per hour, or trying to get an engineer to understand what direction I wanted to take with my songs.
Eventually other musicians started to ask to book time and I was able to pay for all of my own gear by recording others.
Education is the most important part of your home studio. The gear will not operate by itself. You need to learn as much as you can about recording to make great sounding music.
Today is a very exciting time for musicians who want to build their own pro audio home studio. YouTube.com has so many great tutorials and tips for you. Interviews with professional engineers, artists and producers that give you such great insight on how they do what they do.
There is no reason why you can’t become an expert audio engineer, and that makes it possible to become the best producer of your music.
I’ll try to recommend certain pro audio gear that I know will work and help you get professional results in your home studio.
So take that first step towards making your musical dreams come true by making your music sound as good as it does in your head!
