Analogue recordings have a distinct and superior sound quality that cannot be replicated by digital recordings. However, it is important to understand that analogue recording is not just about tape recorders, valves, or vinyl. It is a way of working and a way of thinking.

Digital recording encourages a plugin-based approach, where users can easily solve problems or seek new ideas by clicking on a specific tool. In contrast, analogue recording requires users to use their imagination and inventiveness to make decisions and find creative solutions.

Recording need not be complicated, even though it may seem so due to the various misconceptions surrounding the process. It is not necessary to use twelve mics on the drums, EQ and compress every track, or wade through sixty-four alternate takes and repairs during mixing.

The Analogue Approach to Digital Recording and Mixing is a comprehensive guide that covers the entire process of recording, from setting up your studio to mastering a final mix. It explains how traditional analogue techniques and methods can be adapted to any digital recording system, without the need for any new equipment or software.

By embracing the analogue approach, users can unlock the full potential of their digital recording system and create recordings that are rich, warm, and timeless. The book provides valuable insights and techniques that will help musicians and audio professionals achieve professional-quality results in their work.
