Digital audio recorders

In the beginning, the objections might have held some validity, but nowadays any sound that you can get from an eight track recorder, you can get from a digital audio recorder.

It is amazing how long 8 track recorders have been around, if you think about it.

Digital recording has been on the scene for decades now, and still people are using old analog audio recorders.

I guess it is a testimony to how well they are made.

Although they do not get the same quality sound as the high end digital audio recorders, they are the best bet if you want to get a good recording for very cheap.

You can find them for almost nothing.

Often, people will just give them away.

I have a friend who just made the switch to a digital audio recorder.

He had sworn off digital audio recorders for decades.

You see, he likes low fidelity sound.

He plays garage rock, and after all, why would you need perfectly clean sound for garage rock?

He found the sound from digital audio recorders to be dead, flat, and without soul.

I didn't really buy his argument.

I think there is a certain kind of snobbery that is common in the low fidelity community.

People use any excuse to distance themselves from digital audio recorders.

In the beginning, the objections might have held some validity, but nowadays any sound that you can get from an eight track recorder, you can get from a digital audio recorder.

The thing is, the analog recorders have a certain mechanical quality that is lost in the digital voice recorders.

You can actually watch the tape wind and unwind.

Things don't occur in some invisible realm inside the computer, but right before your eyes.

I understand why some people are reluctant to adopt digital audio recorders.

In the end, however, I think it is worth it.

Digital audio recording is the greatest thing that has ever happened to independent musicians.

With digital audio recorders, you can cheaply import sound into your computer, where you can master it just like a real studio does.

Instead of having to pay hundreds, or even thousands of dollars for studio sessions, you can do one for free at home with a couple thousand dollars worth of equipment.

Trust me, it quickly pays off.

All you need is basic digital audio recorders, a microphone or two, and a computer.

You can get by without even having a mixing board! It really is amazing when you think of where things were 20 years ago.

I love old 8 track sound recorders, but I welcome the new technology.
