After you watch the videos please help us add some point form notes below. I started with Tom's outline for the headings. You can add content or other points.


Microphone Technique

Working the Mic

  • Moving back from the microphone robs you of tone.
  • The ToneMatch® Filters were created for close microphone technique.

Stay Glued to the Windscreen

  • If you move your head around the microphone, swivel so that you mouth is always pointed at the windscreen.

Plosives

  • Having trouble with popping consonants? Move closer to the microphone. Eliminate plosives by keeping your lips on the windscreen


Guitar Technique

Playing Solo

  • Be aware of the relative roles and volumes of your Vocals and your Guitar. Don't compete with yourself by overplaying Guitar while singing.
