Testimonial
 

After spending thousands of dollars over the years on recording and producing albums, cassettes, and finally CDs, I was never quite happy with the sound quality of my classical guitar recordings.  Upon reviewing various sources on sound engineering, I found them too complex, full of inapplicable information, and they required an expensive home studio set-up for a rarely available spare room.

This guide is my inexpensive answer to that dilemma. In just minutes, you can set up your portable studio anywhere there is electricity. Your equipment will easily fit in a briefcase. You’ll learn exactly what to buy, how to set up the required equipment, and how to use the features of the recording program to create a studio-quality CD.  In short, I’ve boiled down hundreds of hours of research and practice into this simple guide.  

The required recording equipment, which can be easily purchased on recommended internet sites, (mixer, soundcard, cables, mic, mic stand, headphones)  with a carrying briefcase will run $275 to $450, depending on which microphone you choose.  A standard laptop computer can be purchased for as little as $400.

Get a CD with recording quality good enough to be played on the air waves.   The Gardens of Spain was recorded with My Laptop Studio.  The quality of this CD easily surpasses any of my prior studio recordings.

Whether you need a demo CD for a job search, want to save songs you write, study your instrument, or make a studio quality recording to sell, you'll find this guide an invaluable tool.

A word to the computer challenged
