Headphones for Digital Music Recording

Okay, next we'll discuss your audio sound for what you'll be using as far as listening to your recordings and your music. In my setup I'm using headphones. But you will be able to listen to them because we have the audio coming from the audio out of my audio interface into the camera. So that's how you'll be picking up the audio signal. These headphones I have are studio quality headphones. They're made by Sennheiser. They have a real nice sound. They pick up all the instruments pretty clearly. They have a nice base tone for the low end zone base or kick drums. Very very good headphones. A lot of other headphones when you're shopping for headphones, you can get DJ headphones. They're usually pretty good for studio recording. If you don't want to spend a, pay a high price for studio headphones, cuz they can get pricey, DJ, good DJ headphones can get pretty pricey too, but they're a good investment if you're looking to be in it for the long term. There's other headphones you can get, like you can go to Radio Jack, Radio Jack, Radio Shack and get like some inexpensive headphones you know for like ten, fifteen, twenty dollars, just for, you know, just for something where you can hear and just get started. Okay, like I said, headphones are real good. Especially when you're recording at home and by yourself, headphones are the way to go.
