Premier Guitar’s Secrets of the Masters

  Premier guitar has been running a new feature for the past few months called “Secrets of the Masters”  Now upon hearing the title you might think this was a lesson or some sort of article based on a legendary guitar player.

The “Masters” are the master tapes of great recordings.  These tapes are loaded up on a machine and run through track by track by the authors.  This is one of the coolest reads I’ve seen in a while.  Not only does it give some insight to recording technique and production but gives you a look at what was left out of the final mix.  How cool would it be to get your hands on some old tracks and actually have a chance to mix your own version of a classic song.

The authors are experienced studio professionals who know what they’re talking about.  The perspective they give to these classic tracks is great.  You find yourself learning something without even trying.
