INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Search first by typing the name of the product you are looking for. Include a model number if you are looking for something specific.

Type your area code into the search as well in order to cut down on shipping expenses. Research companies before you buy from them. Search for the company name online to check customer reviews. Use a business database such as the Better Business Bureau. Call companies not only to discuss purchases, but to gauge their legitimacy. Most legitimate companies will have business protocols such as a departmental phone system or receptionist. Many manufacturers are tough to buy from since they tend to fulfill high volume orders only. However, you get the cheapest prices when you buy from them. Call up their sales department or send them an email. Ask them, "Can I order your product from you directly? Do you have a minimum order amount?" To contact a brand manufacturer, search for their information online. Look for emails and phone numbers on the manufacturer's website or in business listings. If the manufacturer can't sell to you directly, ask them, "Can I have a list of your distributors?"

Purchasing products here can be a little more expensive and less efficient than over the Internet, but you also get a chance to network with various company representatives.

Make connections at trade shows and in professional organizations. Other wholesalers may be using these sources too. These groups occasionally run ads in trade magazines. Stumbling upon ads can be hit or miss, but by reading a magazine or website relevant to what you want to buy, you may come across good deals. These organizations often provide purchase discounts to members. For example, read about the food or restaurant industry if you are interested in buying food or kitchen supplies wholesale. Paying to access deals may seem rough at first, but it quickly becomes worth it if you find what you need. There are a few of these wholesale sites available that can help you make purchases, the biggest of them being Alibaba or AliExpress. You can connect to manufacturers across the world so you can buy goods directly from places like China. You can then place larger orders if you plan on reselling items. Business to business websites facilitate purchases. By using them, you can get price quotes and place orders without calling up a manufacturer. This means less worries about issues like language barriers or shipping.

SUMMARY: Do an Internet search to locate specific products. Speak to brand manufacturers to order from them directly. Visit trade shows if you want to order from manufacturers in person. Network with other wholesalers if you want to find deals. Join professional groups offering wholesale prices in trade magazines. Buy from business to business sites if you want to shop internationally.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Soundproofing really does two things. It makes the room quieter by blocking out outside noise. It also makes the sound quality better on recording by absorbing excess acoustic ambience. Professional soundproofing can be expensive. Acoustic foam or panels work if you have money to spend, but may run you significant costs for a large studio. One inexpensive way to reduce sound is in the selection of the studio space. Try to select a live room without windows and with heavy, thick walls or thick insulation. If you are on a budget, get some blankets and cover up any windows and doors to reduce background noise. Added mass to the walls, like foam, also helps to increase the room's sound absorption. This should reduce echoes. repare a vocal booth. Most studios set aside space specifically for vocals. Vocals can be hard to record. They should be recorded standing up, which makes it easier for the singer to sustain a good sound. The mic should also be at a comfortable height. The vocal booth is an isolation booth, so it should be acoustically isolated. Make sure to soundproof it as best you can. The mic itself should have a pop filter to protect it from saliva and to filter out sharp sounds, like t's and s's. If you don't have a pop filter, you can buy one for $10 or $20. If your mic is directional, so that only one side picks up sound, turn it so the side of the mic is facing the vocalist. His mouth should be about 10-15 cm away from the mic when singing. This distance shouldn't be altered too much, as it will cause the recording to sound off. You'll want mics to be just far enough from the sound source (i.e. acoustic instruments or amplifiers) so that they don't hinder the musicians. This typically doesn't involve a pop filter of any kind. If you have a small instrumental mic, use that. Instructions are usually included with the user manual. Use component mics or a single mic above the drums. Recording drums will vary according to the type of sound you want and what kind of gear the musicians come with. The best drum sound comes from single mics that clip onto individual components. You can then put these on the same channel in the DAW. If you don't feel like outfitting each component with a separate mic, take one mic and position it a few feet above the center of the kit. No pop filter is needed but make sure to face the mic's recording side down. Doing so will add more "room sound" to the mix.

SUMMARY:
Soundproof the live room. . Set up the instrumentalists in the live room.
