About this ebook
This book contains 6 tips that will help anyone immediately improve the quality of the audio they record at home, no matter what kind of microphone or other equipment currently being used. The first 4 tips are completely free, meaning the reader would not have to buy or build anything in order to implement the advice in that tip right away. The 5th tip discusses the pros and cons of buying a better microphone, starting with mics under $100 and going up from there. the final tip discusses acoustic room treatment - putting acoustic foam on the walls of the room where recording is taking place - and the prices associated with that.

Ken Theriot
Ken Theriot is a musician, voice-over actor, recording engineer and author. He has been recording and producing music for over 20 years. He started the web site Home Brew Audio (http://www.homebrewaudio.com) to help people set up and use their home studios to produce high quality audio without having to spend a fortune (the starting budget is “zero-to-five dollars”), and without having to have a masters degree in audio engineering. Home Brew Audio is all about getting the point across so “regular non-techie" people can understand the concepts, which trulyaren’t hard. They just seem that way because too often the explanations come from “tech guys” whose second language is “engineer-ese.”
