What are the different noise problems you might get when
recording audio, and what might you do to reduce them?Sound bleed in the room , etc people walking around and always
having headphones on when recording because the vocals will loose
their effect because the main tracks main level will be to high .
What effects have you used and why? (Both corrective e.g.EQ,
compression etc, and creative e.g. reverb, distortion etc).I have used effects such Delay and Reverb to create effects on the
vocals and the drums to create an atmospheric electronic sound ,
using panning automation also to make it balance and blend more.

pan, volume etc). - Inserts are a series of boxes where you can
select different effects and plug-ins to change the sound and mix the
