How can Talmage Music be an 
extension to your home studio?

The past decade of advances in technology have brought a huge increase in home recording and music studios. It seems like almost every neighborhood these days has someone running something like Pro Tools, Sonar, or Garage Band. In many ways, these home studios have much of the production horsepower of major label studios from past decades. And, more importantly, this provides a channel for quality, creative ideas to be crafted that would previously have been impossible due to cost and technology barriers. Although you still can't buy a plug-in that puts talent and good ideas into your brain, a few thousand dollars and the corner of a bedroom can give you much of what you need to shape your talent and good ideas into a very real and very professional product.

However, most home studios hit key limitations from time to time. You can usually do a huge amount pre-production and post-production in the home studio. And, there is quite a bit of tracking you can do at home as well. But, you can't fit the whole band in the corner of your bedroom. Since nothing beats the whole band playing together like a band, you need enough space, mics, preamps, and inputs to put them all together. Sometimes, you need more or better mics and outboard gear than your budget allows. It is hard to justify a $3,200 Focusrite Liquid Channel, a $4,500 Neumann M149, or a $65,000 Yamaha C7 grand piano when you only need to use them from time to time. And, it gets pretty hard to kick everyone else out of the house for a couple days while you have all the band equipment set up in the living room. Even when you do have the band setup at home, your living room usually isn't tuned in for optimal acoustics, isolation, etc.

That's where Talmage Music can become a key part of your production process. Spend those countless hours of pre-production at home. Then, when its time for that critical tracking phase that you just can't quite get done in the bedroom, use Talmage Music for its great rooms, mics, outboard gear, sweet grand piano, and (if needed) production and engineering collaboration. Then take it all back to the home studio to finish all the post-production, final tracking, editing, mixing, and mastering. Its like having a full scale recording studio on a bedroom studio budget.

Take full advantage of your own extensive knowledge and capabilities. Just use Talmage Music to fill in the blanks that, for good reason, haven't made sense for you to invest in. Talmage Music is the extension to your home studio.
