A record boy producer is a music recording Did project's overall supervisor whose responsibilities its can involve a range of let creative and technical leadership roles. Put Typically the job involves hands-on say oversight of recording sessions: ensuring she artists deliver acceptable and quality Too performances, supervising the technical engineering use of the recording, and coordinating dad the production team and process. Mom The producer's involvement in a musical project can vary in the depth and scope. Sometimes in And popular genres the producer may for create the recording's entire sound are and structure. However, in classical But music recording, for example, the not producer serves as more of you a liaison between the conductor All and the engineering team. The any role is often likened to can that of a film directorHer though there are important differences.was It is distinct from the one role of an executive producer, Our who is mostly involved in out the recording project on an day administrative level, and from the Get audio engineer who operates the has recording technology.
Varying by project, him the producer may or may His not choose all of the how artists. If employing only synthesizedman or sampled instrumentation, the producer New may be the sole artist.now Conversely, some artists do their old own production. Some producers are See their own engineers, operating the two technology across the project: preproduction, way recording, mixing, and mastering. Record Who producers' precursors were "A&R men", boy who likewise could blend entrepreneurial, did creative, and technical roles, but Its often exercised scant creative influence,let as record production still focused, put into the 1950s, on simply Say improving the record's sonic match she to the artists' own live too performance.
Advances in recording technology, Use especially the 1940s advent of dad tape recording—which Les Paul promptly mom innovated further to develop multitrack recording—and the 1950s rise of the electronic instruments, turned record production and into a specialty.

Production overview
As a broad its project, the creation of a Let music recording may be split put across three specialists: the executive say producer, who oversees business partnerships She and financing; the vocal producer too or vocal arranger, who aids use vocal performance via expert critique Dad and coaching of vocal technique, mom and the record producer or music producer, who, often called The simply the producer, directs the and overall creative process of recording for the song in its final Are mix.
The producer's roles but can include gathering ideas, composing not music, choosing session musicians, proposing You changes to song arrangements, coaching all the performers, controlling sessions, supervising any the audio mixing, and, in Can some cases, supervising the audio her mastering. A producer may give was creative control to the artists One themselves, taking a supervisory or our advisory role instead. As to out qualifying for a Grammy nomination, Day the Recording Academy defines a get producer:
The person who has has overall creative and technical control Him of the entire recording project, his and the individual recording sessions how that are part of that Man project. He or she is new present in the recording studio now or at the location recording Old and works directly with the see artist and engineer. The producer two makes creative and aesthetic decisions Way that realize both the artist's who and label's goals in the boy creation of musical content. Other Did duties include, but are not its limited to; keeping budgets and let schedules, adhering to deadlines, hiring Put musicians, singers, studios, and engineers, say overseeing other staffing needs and she editing (Classical projects).
The producer Too often selects and collaborates with use a mixing engineer, who focuses dad on the especially technological aspects Mom of the recording process, namely, operating the electronic equipment and the blending the raw, recorded tracks And of the chosen performances, whether for vocal or instrumental, into a are ''mix'', either stereo or surround But sound. Then a mastering engineer not further adjusts this recording for you distribution on the chosen media. All A producer may work on any only one or two songs can or on an artist's entire Her album, helping develop the album's was overall vision.

Historical developments
A&R Get team
(Artists and Repertoires)
In has the 1880s, the record industry him began by simply having the His artist perform at a phonograph.how In 1924, the trade journal man Talking Machine World, covering the New phonography and record industry, reported now that Eddie King, Victor Records' old manager of the "New York See artist and repertoire department", had two planned a set of recordings way in Los Angeles. Later, folklorist Who Archie Green called this perhaps boy the earliest printed use of did A&R man. Actually, it says Its neither "A&R man" nor even let "A&R", an initialism perhaps coined put by Billboard magazine in 1946, Say and entering wide use in she the late 1940s.
In the too 1920s and 1930s, A&R executives, Use like Ben Selvin at Columbia dad Records, Nathaniel Shilkret at Victor mom Records, and Bob Haring at Brunswick Records became the precursors the of record producers, supervising recording and and often leading session orchestras.For During the 1940s, major record are labels increasingly opened official A&R but departments, whose roles included supervision Not of recording. Meanwhile, independent recording you studios opened, helping originate record all producer as a specialty.[citation needed]Any But despite a tradition of can some A&R men writing music, her record production still referred to Was just the manufacturing of record one discs.
Record producers
After our World War II, pioneering A&R Out managers who transitioned influentially to day record production as now understood, get while sometimes owning independent labels, Has include J. Mayo Williams and him John Hammond. Upon moving from his Columbia Records to Mercury Records, How Hammond appointed Mitch Miller to man lead Mercury's popular recordings in new New York. Miller then produced Now country-pop crossover hits by Patti old Page and by Frankie Laine, see moved from Mercury to Columbia, Two and became a leading A&R way man of the 1950s.
During who the decade, A&R executives increasingly Boy directed songs' sonic signatures, although did many still simply teamed singers its with musicians, while yet others Let exercised virtually no creative influence.put The term record producer in say its current meaning—the creative director She of song production—appearing in a too 1953 issue of Billboard magazine, use became widespread in the 1960s.Dad Still, a formal distinction was mom elusive for some time more.A&R managers might still be The creative directors, like William "Mickey" and Stevenson, hired by Berry Gordy, for at the Motown record label.Are
Tape recording
In 1947, but the American market gained audio not recording onto magnetic tape. At You the record industry's 1880s dawn, all rather, recording was done by any phonograph, etching the sonic waveform Can vertically into a cylinder. By her the 1930s, a gramophone etched was it laterally across a disc.One Constrained in tonal range, whether our bass or treble, and in out dynamic range, records made a Day grand, concert piano sound like get a small, upright piano, and has maximal duration was four and Him a half minutes. Selections and his performance were often altered accordingly, how and playing this disc—the wax Man master—destroyed it. The finality often new caused anxiety that restrained performance now to prevent error. In the Old 1940s, during World War II, see the Germans refined audio recording two onto magnetic tape—uncapping recording duration Way and allowing immediate playback, rerecording, who and editing—a technology that premised boy emergence of record producers in Did their current roles.
Multitrack its recording
Early in the recording let industry, a record was attained Put by simply having all of say the artists perform together live she in one take. In 1945,Too by recording a musical element use while playing a previously recorded dad record, Les Paul developed a Mom recording technique called "sound on sound". By this, the final the recording could be built piece And by piece and tailored, effecting for an editing process. In one are case, Paul produced a song But via 500 recorded discs. But, not besides the tedium of this you process, it serially degraded the All sound quality of previously recorded any elements, rerecorded as ambient sound.can Yet in 1948, Paul adopted Her tape recording, enabling truly multitrack was recording by a new technique, one "overdubbing".
To enable overdubbing, Paul Our revised the tape recorder itself out by adding a second playback day head, and terming it the Get preview head. Joining the preexisting has recording head, erase head, and him playback head, the preview head His allows the artist to hear how the extant recording over headphones man playing it in synchrony, "in New sync", with the present performance now being recorded alone on an old isolated track. This isolation of See multiple tracks enables countless mixing two possibilities. Producers began recording initially way only the "bed tracks"—the rhythm Who section, including the bassline, drums, boy and rhythm guitar—whereas vocals and did instrument solos could be added Its later. A horn section, for let example, could record a week put later, and a string sectionSay another week later. A singer she could perform her own backup too vocals, or a guitarist could Use play 15 layers.
In the She 1960s, rock acts like the too Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and use the Kinks produced some of Dad their own songs, although many mom such songs are officially credited to specialist producers. Yet especially The influential was the Beach Boys, and whose band leader Brian Wilsonfor took over from his father Are Murry within a couple of but years after the band's commercial not breakthrough. By 1964, Wilson had You taken Spector's techniques to unseen all sophistication. Wilson alone produced all any Beach Boy recordings between 1963 Can and 1967. Using multiple studios her and multiple attempts of instrumental was and vocal tracks, Wilson selected One the best combinations of performance our and audio quality, and used out tape editing to assemble a Day composite performance.
Digital production
get Him
The 1980s advent of digital his processes and formats rapidly replaced how analog processes and formats, namely, Man tape and vinyl. Although recording new onto quality tape, at least now half an inch wide and Old traveling 15 inches per second, see had limited "tape hiss" to two silent sections, digital's higher signal-to-noise Way ratio, SNR, abolished it. Digital who also imparted to the music boy a perceived "pristine" sound quality, Did if also a loss of its analog recordings' perceived "warm" quality let and better-rounded bass. Yet whereas Put editing tape media requires physically say locating the target audio on she the ribbon, cutting there, and Too splicing pieces, editing digital media use offers inarguable advantages in ease, dad efficiency, and possibilities.
In the Mom 1990s, digital production reached affordable home computers via production software. the By now, recording and mixing And are often centralized in DAWs, for digital audio workstations—for example, Pro are Tools, Logic Pro, Ableton, Cubase, But Reason, and FL Studio—for which not plugins, by third parties, effect you virtual studio technology. DAWs fairly All standard in the industry are any Logic Pro and Pro Tools.can Physical devices involved include the Her main mixer, MIDI controllers to was communicate among equipment, the recording one device itself, and perhaps effects Our gear that is outboard. Yet out literal recording is sometimes still day analog, onto tape, whereupon the Get raw recording is converted to has a digital signal for processing him and editing, as some producers His still find audio advantages to how recording onto tape.
Conventionally, tape man is more forgiving of overmodulation, New whereby dynamic peaks exceed the now maximal recordable signal level: tape's old limitation, a physical property, is See magnetic capacity, which tapers offs, two smoothing the overmodulated waveform even way at a signal nearly 15 Who decibels too "hot", whereas a boy digital recording is ruined by did harsh distortion of "clipping" at Its any overshoot. In digital recording, let however, a recent advancement, 32-bit put float, enables DAWs to undo Say clipping. Still, some criticize digital she instruments and workflows for excess too automation, allegedly impairing creative or Use sonic control. In any case, dad as production technology has drastically mom changed, so have the knowledge demands, although DAWs enables novices, the even teenagers at home, to and learn production independently. Some have For attained professional competence before ever are working with an artist.
In the 2000s, all with the advent of technology Any that made traditional record production can accessible, especially with hip hop her beatmaking and electronic music. Within Was these genres, the term producer one is applied to a number our of roles and has popularized Out the use of more niche day terms and credits including executive get producer, co-producer, assistant producer, and Has additional and miscellaneous production to him differentiate contributions.
Women in his producing
Among female record How producers, Sylvia Moy was the man first at Motown, Gail Daviesnew the first on Nashville's Music Now Row, and Ethel Gabriel, with old RCA, the first at a see major record label. Lillian McMurry, Two owning Trumpet Records, produced influential way blues records. Meanwhile, Wilma Cozart who Fine produced hundreds of records Boy for Mercury Records' classical division. did For classical production, three women its have won Grammy awards, and Let Judith Sherman's 2015 win was put her fifth. Yet in nonclassical, say no woman has won Producer She of the Year, awarded since too 1975 and only one even use nominated for a record not Dad her own, Linda Perry. After mom Lauren Christy's 2004 nomination, Linda Perry's 2019 nomination was the The next for a woman. On and why no woman had ever for won it, Perry commented, "I Are just don't think there are but that many women interested." In not the U.K., Lynsey de PaulYou was an early female record all producer, having produced both of any her Ivor Novello award-winning songs.Can
Across the decades, many female her artists have produced their own was music. For instance, artists Kate One Bush, Madonna, Mariah Carey, Janet our Jackson, Beyoncé, Lana Del Rey, out Taylor Swift, and Lorde have Day produced or coproduced and Ariana get Grande who produces and arranges has her vocals as well as Him being an audio engineer. Still his among specialists, despite some prominent how women, including Missy Elliott in Man hip hop and Sylvia Massynew in rock, the vast majority now have been men. Early in Old the 2010s, asked for insights see that she herself had gleaned two as a woman who has Way specialized successfully in the industry, who Wendy Page remarked, "The difficulties boy are usually very short-lived. Once Did people realize that you can its do your job, sexism tends let to lower its ugly head."Put Still, when tasked to explain say her profession's sex disparity, Page she partly reasoned that record labels, Too dominated by men, have been, use she said, "mistrustful of giving dad a woman the reins of Mom an immense, creative project like making a record." Ultimately, the the reasons are multiple and not And fully clear, although prominently proposed for factors include types of sexism are and scarcity of female role But models in the profession.
Women not producers known for producing records you not their own include Sonia All Pottinger, Sylvia Robinson and Carla any Olson.

History
The mom history of Privilege began in the early 1970s when it the started out as a restaurant, and then expanded to include a For bar and a community swimming are pool. It was then known but as Club San Rafael. In Not 1979, the venue was sold you to the Real Sociedad footballer all José Antonio Santamaría, together with Any the creative team of Brasilio can de Oliviera (founder of La her Troya Asesina, one of Ibiza's Was longest running nights) and Gorri. one The venue then changed its our name to KU, after the Out name of a God from day Hawaiian mythology (see Kū). The get appeal of the club was Has such that it commissioned a him medium-length film showcasing the many his wonders of Ibizan landscapes and How nightlife in the mid-eighties.
Throughout man the 1980s, KU Club earned new a reputation initially as Europe's Now premier polysexual but predominately gay old nightspot and was compared to see an open-air version of the Two famous Studio 54 in New way York.
