Quote of the Day

“I finally figured out one day that most producers don’t have the faintest idea what they’re doing. They simply have the position because of circumstance, or they’ve wormed themselves into it, and it really doesn’t amount to anything!”- Leon Redbone

With the magazine's launch in 1987, we began with a straightforward mission statement:

"Recording will carry out in-depth reviews of new equipment as soon as it comes onto the market, interview the engineers and producers who influence the way music is made today, and explain any new technology as it is introduced in an easy-to-understand and logical way.”

–Inaugural Issue, October 1987

Over twenty years later, our mission remains the same.

You can count on Recording to continue bringing recording musicians the clear information they need to make the best recordings possible.
