Singer-Songwriter Recording
Singer-songwriter sessions are about capturing the essence of the material: your voice and your instrument without layers of production obscuring the song. GoatHead Audio records singer-songwriters with the same attention to detail as full band sessions, scaled to the intimacy of solo performance.
How It Works
We set up at your location. For voice and acoustic guitar, we typically use two mics: one on the vocal and one on the instrument. Each goes to its own channel so we can mix them independently.
You play through your songs. Take as many passes as you need. We can also overdub. Lay down the guitar first, then sing over it, or vice versa. Whatever workflow suits the material.
Building Up
Many singer-songwriters start with voice and guitar, then add layers: harmonies, a second guitar part, maybe some percussion. We can track these as overdubs in the same session. The multitrack setup handles additional instruments without any workflow change.
The song starts simple and you build as much or as little as you want.
