Buying Compressor Pedals for Your Guitar

Guide, Tips

Compression is crucial to sound recording and live sound mixing, but many musicians don’t understand exactly what it does. Compression is simple in theory but can be complex and subtle in practice.

A compressor reduces the dynamic range of sounds that pass through it. That sounds complicated, but it isn’t. “Dynamic range” is just the distance between the loudest and the quietest sounds in a recording or performance. Compression reduces this range by reducing the gain on sounds louder than some threshold, and/or increasing the gain on sounds quieter than some threshold.

In compressors designed for studio use, the user has detailed control over the low and high thresholds. In stompbox compressor sustainers, there is usually a single knob that controls both low and high thresholds.

Karaoke: How To Prepare For And Enjoy This Activity

Musics, Tips

A large number of individuals will sing or at least watch someone else sing karaoke at some point. While the popularity of karaoke ebbs and flows depending on other factors, it remains a popular pastime for many. Even if you don’t want to or cannot make it to the bar regularly for karaoke, a karaoke contest may be an ideal way to maximize your enjoyment of listening to people sing karaoke.

In past years I sang karaoke at least once a month. Not surprisingly, after spending numerous evenings singing and listening to karaoke, I learned a thing or two about how to best approach this activity. Knowing a few hints–such as looking at a song’s lyrics at home before singing the song at karaoke–helped increase my enjoyment of this pastime greatly.

The first is to realize that you are not expected to sound like a famous singer when you perform. Most audiences listening to karaoke are forgiving and encouraging, and this atmosphere makes it easier to attempt new and challenging song choices.

Advice For Your First Time At A Music Festival

Tips

Your Phone Will Not Work

Think of it as more of a really expensive camera and a flashlight for the weekend, because you will not have service. Even if you do..whoever you’re trying to get in touch will probably won’t.
This is is why you will see people carrying around “totems” (long sticks that hold a balloon or stuffed animal or another strange object in the air for their friends to recognize and find their group should they be separated.)

Tip: You should plan a system with your group for finding each other. Make an emergency meeting spot for anyone who gets lost, brings walkie talkies, makes your own totem, uses the buddy system. Just make sure there is a plan in place.. Nothing is worse than missing out on one of your favorite artists because you’re off looking for a wandering pack member.
