I'll take a stab in the dark here and say that your ultimate dream is to be recorded. Even just a home recorded demo would be necessary to show your friends and family that you're on your way to fulfilling those dreams.
Self-Recording
The technology is attainable and easy to use. Most computers have enough power to record and edit audio, and the media we use can transfer it easily. If this is your path, either due to a lack of funds or because you're a do-it-yourself, you'll need a few things.
1. A Microphone - A simple microphone isn't enough when recording high quality audio. You need a devoted input device that dampens background noise. Some microphones come with built in sound dampeners.
2. Software for Recording - The input unit only captures the audio. You also need software that will record, analyze, and allow you to edit the audio.
3. Recording Space - In conclusion, you need somewhere quiet and isolated to record. While most recording artists have a sound room in their homes, you do not, and despite popular belief, a bathroom is not perfect. So, find the smallest room you can and minimize any enveloping noise.
Professional Recording Sessions
The other option, which is becoming less common but still carries a high level of weight, is being professionally recorded. This route calls for that you first find a good producer. A producer will be the medium between you and the recorded audio. He or she will bring of the equipment and mix your demo.
Be Prepared
Keep one thing in mind when prepping your demo - recording executives are more fascinated in quality than length. They want to listen to a handful of good songs that show you are a talented writer and artist, not an epic album. The quality of your recording only needs to be sufficient to get your foot in the door.
And luckily, home recording devices do just that. So, if you're short on money or simply don't want to handle the hassle of a studio recording, look into a home recording. You'll have a quicker, more personal demo and you'll have far more time and more money to spend writing powerful, evocative songs. - 40724
