  1. The Right Studio Monitors – Essential to Creating a Good Mix

  2. Ever since technological advancements have enabled us to record and mix music in the comfort of our own homes, buying studio monitors online has assumed greater importance and popularity. Though they might appear to be similar at the first glance, studio monitors are completely different from the standard bookshelf speakers. Unlike the speakers that boost the highs and lows for punchier sounds, studio monitors offer flat frequency response sans any coloration of the sound. This flat frequency response is also referred to as being transparent. More transparency helps you to create a more realistic stereo image and gain more insight into your mix. When mixing music, your primary concern is to mix a track that sounds equally good on different kinds of speakers. A flat or non-colouring studio monitor allows you to hear the imperfections in your mix. Another great thing about studio monitors is that you don’t have to spend a lot to own a decent pair for your own studio.

  3. Do Studio Monitors need additional gear? In the majority of cases, the answer is going to be no. Studio monitors designed for use in home studios are mostly active (amps inside) these days, with passive speakers slowly disappearing. Simply put, active monitors are equipped with multiple amplifiers and all you need to do is plug them in a power socket and your computer. Moreover, most state-of-the-art active monitors come with inputs for a variety of audio gear, so you’re covered in that regard as well. 

  4. Size of your Monitors You don’t necessarily need a large space to accommodate a pair of professional quality studio monitors. Though they come in all sizes, most monitors are compact, bookshelf-sized speakers and you must choose one depending on the size of your listening room. Monitors larger than 8” to 10” commonly move more air around, which may cause acoustic interferences in a small room. If you have limited space, opt for monitors up to 5” or 6” for the best results. For a larger room, you can go for 8” monitors. If you’re serious about getting into music production, you shouldn’t have second thoughts about buying a pair of good quality-studio monitors. Even those on a budget can find some great models that are affordable such as the Fluid Audio Classic Series online. If you want a true idea of what your recordings will sound like in the real world, buy a good pair of studio monitors and get to mixing!
