Difference Between Music Production and Sound Engineering

Music production entails creating the music from scratch and sound engineering involves mixing the different instruments collectively so it sounds nice.

I will reveal each aspects as they relate to D.J.'ing however more so on the production side.

For most established D.J.'s, that means those that have been D.J.'ing for a while whether it is of their bedroom or within the club, music production is the subsequent logical step. Because D.J.'s play so many alternative types of music they arrive throughout a number of beats and sounds. This conjures up some D.J.'s to pattern those beats and sounds and make up their own songs.

This is the beginning of the music production stage. There are 3 stages to music production: pre-production, music production and put upproduction.

Stage 1 Pre-production

The music production stage is the crafting of the new song. I call this the pre- production stage because you might be just experimenting with music. This is the place music from the file or mp3 is sampled utilizing a sampler or drum machine like an Akai MPC. But before you can sample and produce music you must make sure your gear is properly linked:

So that I can sample sounds into my Akai drum machine I have my Technics turntable going into the phono enter of my stereo unit. Then I take the phono out of my stereo unit to the enter of my MPC 3000. My MPC gets connected to my Akai DPS 24.Then the DSP 24 is connected to the CD input of the stereo unit so I can hear what I produce.

With the intention to pattern I've to make positive I select the phono option on my stereo unit. After I pattern the sounds I've to switch to the CD option on my stereo unit so I can hear the playback from the drum machine. As soon as you have completed your musical arrangement and saved your entire work and you're glad with it you possibly can move into the part of the pre-production phase.

Throughout this phase is when you herald artists to perform on you track. This is the place you start to rearrange the track or music you created with the artists. This collaboration period enables you and the artists to make minor adjustments to the music and the lyrics. You may additionally add to or take away elements of the track resembling adding additional drums or strings. The artists will follow their song using your track. As soon as this is very tight you move to the studio to lay the music and the vocals on separate recording tracks. The reason why you wish to apply before you get to the studio is because studio time could be very costly and you don't wish to waste time training in. That's the place you must focus your entire time making certain the music and vocals are recorded cleanly without pops and clicks.

Stage 2 Music Production

Whenever you get to the studio this is the place the sound engineer comes into play. This individual is answerable for making sure all of you music sounds excellent. These individuals have years of experience. Some D.J./Producers additionally like to engineer their own music because they know how they need their music to sound. If this is the case then the sound engineer simply assists the D.J. with mixing the music and using the studio equipment.

The mixing part of the music production phase is done within the studio the place all the music tracks and vocal tracks are blended collectively to give you what you hear in your CD.

Each musical instrument and vocal track is combined and adjusted using what is called a mixing board like my Akai DPS24 only bigger or software based mostly mixing console like Pro Tools.

Stage three Postproduction

After the blending is completed the publishproduction process begins. The final mix is taken to what's called a Mastering Studio where specialized equipment is used to carry out the absolute best sound. When this process is completed the ultimate outcomes of the music are then pressed on CD or vinyl and sold to the customer.
