Nowadays, anyone can make a recording of music. The question is: does it sound the way you (the recordist) wanted to sound? Reliably producing original recordings that have the sound qualities desired can be a challenge due to the complexity of the process.. The audio signal path for an original recording of music includes numerous types of audio devices, formats, techniques, and calibers of such components. This results in an infinite number of interacting variables that can influence the sound qualities of a mastered mix. Subsequently, it can be difficult for recordists to know the cause of undesirable results let alone what to do about them. Internet misinformation and marketing hype can compound the problem.
