Ben became interested in home recording when he wanted more control over the sound of his music. The journey to audio excellence has been a long and hard road due to the lack of solid, practical information. The purpose of this website is to shorten the learning period for anyone interested in taking control of their own sound. Ben would like to keep the information pool on this website growing. This is an endeavor which takes plenty of resources (time to write articles and money to pay for web traffic). If you are interested in supporting this goal, please make a contribution. Any amount is appreciated.

The Home recording book is a little out of date but there is still a ton of great information in it. I learned a lot reading this book and it has some really great EQ and effects guides that will be relevant for as long as studio engineers are using those effects. The Mixing Audio book is a current text with very in depth information as well as a broad overview of basics.

Tone Monster is the place to learn all about tone! I cover all aspects from live to studio, drums to vocals, bluegrass to metal, amps to modelers. Learning and teaching recording techniques, gear uses, and all things involving music production is a passion of mine. This site the manifestation of a desire to share that passion. Music production has brought many years of joy to my life and I hope this collection of articles will help to bring many to yours as well.

Ben Vesco is the primary author of articles on this site. I have been playing guitar, bass, and mandolin for almost thirty years. Audio production has always been an interest of mine. I have been recording myself and others for decades. These years of experience in tweaking tone are what I bring to this site, and you.

Thank you for your support and encouragement!
