In this week’s Audio Plus content, Bobby Owsinski brings us the first of two tutorials on do-it-yourself mixing — the common pitfalls and techniques you can use to make your own mastering efforts sound that much better than the average mixing engineer’s attempts. Bobby is the author of many best-selling audio books including The Mixing Engineer’s Handbook.

If it’s worth recording, it’s worth recording well. To do that, you need a quality microphone. Purchasing your first microphone is a lot more complicated than you may have imagined. And discovering your favorite mic can take years of experience and experimentation.
The job of buying a new microphone is an important one—and an expensive one. It can be a very complicated one. Fortunately, the Internet is filled with pages of useful advice and recommendations about microphones.
In this week’s Audio Plus content, Ryan Leach teaches you how to make those artificial sounding MIDI pieces come to life with a kit of effective techniques. While the screenshots for this tutorial are taken in Logic Pro, the content is not Logic-centric and is equally useful and valuable in any software that deals with sequenced music.

I admit it. I’m at a low point when it comes to practicing music. It’s not that I never practice - I just don’t practice enough to be consciously improving.
It hasn’t always been that way. I can point to a number of very effective periods in my musical life where the right practice has led to quantum leaps in my playing. During those times I spent at least an hour practicing every day (sometimes more), had a focus each week on what I wanted to get good at, but didn’t spend all of my time just focusing on that one thing. I divided my time between theory, warm-ups, scales and licks, and practicing other things I’d learned over the previous months.
This week in Audio Plus we have 50 funk guitar loops from Audiotuts+ author Toby Pitman, available in both WAV and REX formats. Everything you need to add a bit of funk to your productions.

As a young musician, I strongly identified with electronic music. I was into synthesizers and drum machines, digital effects and multi-track recording. I always thought that if I got into guitars that it would be the electric variety with a highly processed sound and pedals everywhere. I wasn’t prepared for the raw beauty of an acoustic guitar.
In this week’s Audio Plus content, Toby Pitman teaches you how to use Logic’s quantize and groove templates features, so you can pull the music in time without sucking the life out of it. For non-Logic users, the tutorial covers the subject in a way that’s relevant for users of most audio software.

Today we’re pleased to introduce the newest member of the Tuts+ family: Cgtuts+. There we’ll be publishing tutorials and video training on software like Autodesk Maya and 3Ds Max, Maxon Cinema 4D, Blender, Zbrush and Mudbox. If you’ve ever wanted to freely learn how to create 3D animations, art or elements for games, now is the time to start!
We’ve launched with a massive 194 minute video training series on how to create art for current gen games. The tutorial was created by the site’s editor, Kaleb Aylsworth, who is currently working as an Environmental 3D Artist on BioShock 2 multiplayer - so he’s got plenty of knowledge and smarts to share!

Where do you find inspiration? It is as intangible and elusive as a ghost. You know when you have it, and can’t manufacture it when you don’t. Without it, creative work is a chore, and often a fuitless one. With it, magic happens.
The question of where inspiration comes from interests me, and over the years I’ve kept notes about where the inspiration for successful songs has come from. It has been found in many and varied places. Most of all, it comes from real life - especially from sincere insights into life truths, and emotional responses to events and relationships. Some artists seem to have discovered ways to help the creative process, and inspire inspiration.
In this week’s Audio Plus content, Bobby Owsinski teaches us how to set about creating a mix that works beyond the basic techniques of getting levels right. This tutorial is about planning the mix and creating the balance that makes everything come together. Bobby is the author of many best-selling audio books including The Mixing Engineer’s Handbook — this is a tutorial of expert advice that’s not to be missed!
