Title: Tips for a Successful Recording Session at The Laughing Buddha Recording Studio Introduction: Recording sessions can be both exciting and nerve-wracking for musicians, artists, podcasters and audio narrators.

This will save time and allow you to focus on capturing the best performances. A lot of artist will spend good money to not even finish a song because of lack of preparation. Practice the 5 P's as I do. Planned Preparation Prevents Poor Performance 3. Bring Your Glass Half Full: To achieve the best an artist, musician, host or narrator can do, I strongly encourage staying positive and having a glass half full mindset towards all that can and will happen during a recording session. Not everything that unfolds will be as you thought it might. This is not always a bad thing, and more often than not will lead to a better performance and outcome. Hopefully my silly, but serious and positive nature will encourage you to think positive through the session and understand that we will make whatever work in the best possible way
