Basic Electronics for Recording Engineers - Part 1

Send us Fan Mail

Music relies on technology, and music recording is entirely dependent on electronics technology. You don’t need to be electronics engineer to record, but some basic knowledge of electricity and electronics can be useful to any recording engineer.

When something doesn’t work as expected, or a piece of studio gear fails, some insight into what might be the cause can save time and money – even if you pay someone else to make the repair. Giving them useful information ahead of time means that the tech will probably spend less time troubleshooting, and that will save on repair costs.

And in any profession, extended knowledge beyond the minimum to do the job gives you an advantage.

And who doesn’t want to have an advantage? And who doesn’t want to have a deeper understanding of the technology that we depend on?

This is the part one of a series on basic electronics. I am keeping the content as simple as possible, which means it is often incomplete. So don’t take this as an electronics course. It’s just information that might be helpful when doing your job.

I will intersperse these basic electronics episodes with the typical content you are used to hearing in this podcast. Tell me if you find this useful.
