Simgerebis Gadmowera -

| Mistake | Consequence | Solution | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Digital clipping, distortion | Keep peaks at -12 dBFS. | | Using auto-tune before recording | Robotic, warped artifacts | Tune after recording, not during. | | Ignoring the room | Hollow, "boxy" sound | Treat reflections with blankets/foam. | | Skipping the pop filter | Explosive plosives ruin the take | Buy a $10 nylon pop filter. | | One take wonder | Mediocre final product | Record 5 takes; comp the best one. | | No headphone mix | Singer sings out of tune (can't hear themselves) | Create a separate headphone blend (more reverb/vocal). |
