We recently hooked up with the amazing singer/songwriter/guitarist extraordinaire Alisa Amador, hot on the heels of her new album Multitudes, to overhaul her home studio with some killer new gear from the good folks and brands at American Music & Sound (AM&S). In this 4-part series, we’ll unbox all the elements of her new home studio rig, walk through the installation/connection process and how to integrate each piece into a fully-functional recording setup, and finally get to hear it all in action as she performs (and records) and exclusive version of one of her songs using all the new equipment. Up first, we start with the fun stuff: the unboxing!
Watch as Alisa introduces the series, opens up each product she’ll be incorporating into her new home studio build, and gets set to put it all to use in upcoming installments.
Up next, we start to make all the connections to get this new home studio build up and running: including the mic setups, the studio monitors, our MIDI controller and the interface going into our DAW I/O configuration.
In Episode 3 we get to know our star artist a little better and get set up for our recording session…
In Episode 4 we have a special treat — an exclusive LIVE performance recorded with Alisa’s new gear featuring the track “Still Life” off of “Multitudes.” We hope you’ve enjoyed this series, and it’s inspired you to upgrade YOUR home recording rig. Thanks for watching!
