Skills of electronic musicians

Hello! Today I continue to tell about electronic musicians.

An ordinary musician plays guitar, keys or drums.

An electronic musician writes music on a computer.

As a rule, this is electronic dance music that sounds in clubs and festivals.

In traditional music, you need a decent instrument and a place to record and rehearse to work.

For electronic musicians, everything is simpler: you can write music even in the bedroom, for which they are often called bedroom producers.

At the same time, it is possible to build a prepared studio and put on equipment for big money.

This does not mean that a musician with an expensive studio is better than a musician in the bedroom.

In electronic music, it's easy to overpay if you don't know what's important and what's not.

In one movie about a fashionable DJ there was such a phrase: "All you need is a laptop, one track and a little talent."

But in life it's not like that at all: you can't do without a laptop, you'll have to release a lot of tracks, and in addition to talent, you also need to be ready to work hard.

The minimum kit for a home studio consists of computer, monitor speakers, audio interface (sound card), program midi controller.

The computer is the heart of the studio.

If earlier every synthesizer and instrument in the studio were in the form of physical boxes, today you can have one normal computer that will pull all their virtual counterparts.

Fans of "hardware" will prove to you that in fact there is a different sound in the computer and without a real instrument, music is not music.

When choosing a computer, you should pay attention to processor and storage.
