Recording in Mono – vs Stereo
The more you work in this industry, the more you take for granted the little things that you gradually learn on your own. Much like what format to record in….Stereo or Mono? I’ve had several students send me files to listen to or critique and the files are Voice Only. When they recorded, they recorded in stereo. Stereo is only meant to separate sound through your speakers and you don’t need to separate VOICE; sound effects and music, yes, but not just raw voice. Always record in MONO. Each program will have the option to record in Mono or Stereo. When you record voice in stereo it can make for akward editing so as a rule of thumb…mono is the way to go….and you won’t even have to go see the doctor LOL.
Until Next time everyone,
