Native DAW apps avoid ALL the major problems associated with online recording… While they’re slightly harder to learn, at first… Here’s an example: Acer Chromebook – ( Amazon). If you aren’t familiar with them yet, Chromebooks are the laptops designed by Google that work solely as an internet browser.īecause the stripped-down design uses no native applications, their price point is significantly cheaper than standard laptops.Īnd since you only need a browser for online recording, these two options compliment each other nicely. NOTE: If you want to try online recording, but you don’t have a laptop yet, check out a Chromebook. Of the truly free sites though, here are two that look pretty promising: And I would especially avoid any sites that charge you anything. So personally, I would avoid these sites in general. So while it does have its advantages, online recording clearly isn’t good enough to pay for.Īnd while I’m sure there are some musicians who have had success with online recording…I’ve honestly never met any of them personally. And over time, those fees add up to more than the cost of a professional DAW. Freemium Business Models – Many top sites bait you with a free signup…but ultimately charge monthly fees for full use of the product.Questionable Content Rights – Even if current “Terms and Conditions” give ownership to the creator, as Facebook and other big sites have shown, those rules are always subject to change.Unreliable Internet – All internet connections drop out occasionally, which could easily rob you of good recording takes.
To see if home recording is something they’ll actually enjoy.Īnd if that sound like you right now… perfect.īecause in today’s post, I’m going to show several great ways to help get you started…
Without first “ getting their feet wet” with some free stuff… It’s fair to say that not many guys will commit to the expense of a pro DAW….
