There are some nostalgists who still defend the vinyl record, which is making a comeback, but it is far from being the most widespread medium. The worldwide invasion of smartphones and the constant evolution of the speed and quality of networks has quickly changed habits, making obsolete many technologies that were considered innovative only a few years ago.

In this second volume, more oriented towards recording, voice mixing and studio work, I will start by describing the hardware and software tools that are effective in recording and include them in the audio chain that will support them.
To continue, I will present several examples of recording studio configurations, from the most modest to the most advanced.
In this context, I will approach sound recording, without neglecting the comfort of the performer and the management of their immediate environment, within which will be placed the various essential materials, respecting the rules necessary for a correct recording.

To go further, I will study the constraints related to the recording of a group, a choir or a voice-over.
Once the recording has been made, it will be time to process it by implementing different processes during the mixing process that will ensure a correct sound rendering while respecting the style and coloring that you wish to impose.
To conclude, I will examine the sound effects or possible corrections that can be made to finalize your project.
I hope that the four chapters that make up this second volume will enrich your knowledge of vocal recording and enable you to make quality recordings that respect your personal feelings and style.
