Recording Studio Definition
Definition
A Recording Studio is an environment to allow for the capture, manipulation and mastering of an auditory product (i.e. like a song).
The term Recording Studio should not be confused with the term Production Studio. After the recording studio has produced an auditory product, it is then often moved to other (production) studios to be further edited and synchronized with other media. Examples of this "other" media would include video and graphics.
The specific “needs” of various media, dictate discrete facilities to produce the desired results. Even in large conglomerates, the studios are kept separate, although they may have a local physical placement. Even sound studios have their own specialization … for example a sound studio for sound effect recordings is called a “Foley Stage”, named after Jack Foley from some big studio (used around the 1950s period).
Ubuntu Studio has the capability of a production studio (both on an amateur or a professional level).
Ubuntu Studio has the following features:
- Audio (multitrack recorder/editor applications + Real-Time Kernel)
- Graphics (Graphic design and modeling applications)
- Video (non-linear video editor, and transcoding applications)
Other media including slide shows are possible if the OpenOffice suite is installed after base install of Ubuntu Studio. To learn how to install a program in Ubuntu, refer to the link: Install Applications in Ubuntu
