(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, August 16, 2013 ) Beaverton, OR -- With the price of technology and software dropping all the time, as well as the ability to reach huge markets through venues such as YouTube and iTunes, self-recording and self-publicizing music is now easier than it has ever been before. Podcasts are also a very popular form of expression for individuals, enthusiasts and companies.
However, even though technology and software has become widely available, it's the simple things that can destroy the quality of a recording. Taking care with the audio recording is absolutely vital for self-published artists.
There are some simple steps that can be taken to ensure great audio. 1. Check for background noise - is there any noise from a washing machine or dishwasher; is the neighbor's dog barking?, 2. Sound-proof the room - using acoustic paneling or even hanging heavy blankets on the walls can make a big difference 3. Check equipment for ground loops. Ground loops are electrical interference caused by improper grounding. There are many technical reasons this can happen, and isolating the cause can be tricky. 4. Using a pop filter, such as that made by Auphonix, will reduce the impact of plosive sounds on the microphone.
Auphonix, a new company in the music accessories market recently launched their double mesh pop filter on the Amazon.com market place.
Since its release, the Auphonix pop filter has quickly risen up the best-seller rankings in its category. People who have purchased the filter recently have been leaving reviews which comment on the quality of the construction of the filter.
One reviewer, Lee Aldefer - a recording industry veteran - left a glowing video review on Amazon in which he said:
"The filter is very well built, the goose-neck is long enough, it mounts very securely to my mic stand and does a great job of busting the pops of my "p's" and ‘t's. I also like that the screen is big so if my talent gets a little off mic it still works well. The double screen filter is the only way to go. I expect I'm now going to have to replace my two older filters."
