Good info, recording, gear reviews, articles, and ads March 5, 2005

By Potter Bosky

Subscription Term Name:1 year

I'll keep this short. hehe. The mag corners a market where no other mag goes. This is a nuts and bolts making a living at electronic music (all forms), kind of mag. You won't find artist reviews or anything like that here (just references to who uses what sometimes). If you are a beginner looking for info, or a pro who is keeping up with latest gear, software, etc., then get this mag. I've had it now for a couple of years and it's jampacked with articles, gear reviews, buying guides, etc. etc. etc. There are ads but they are kept to about 10%-15% usually. Some of the ads are very insightful into new products. Topics range from drum machines, synths, PCs, software (both commercial and freeware!), anything that relates to the Electronic Musician. And if that weren't enough EM goes the extra mile teaching us how to properly record mics, make a mix, anything related to the studio process. I also recommend Keyboard Magazine if you are a synth or electric piano player. I highly recommend Electronic Musician to anyone with an interest in Electronica (EBM, Industrial, Techno, Soundscapes) and/or High-Tech Professional or Home Studio recording.

I will not be renewing my subscription... March 2, 2007

By Eon Fontes May

Subscription Term Name:1 year|Amazon Verified Purchase

I've had a subscription to EM for about three years now and I'm finished. It's not necessarily a bad magazine, it's just a little misleading, in that it should drop "Electronic" from its name entirely. If I have to read one more freaking article on basic mic technique, I'm going to cry. If I have to sit through another boring puff piece where the interviewee talks about analog gear and the interviewer strokes his ego, I'm going to wail like a baby.

Fortunately, I don't have to. I'm letting my subscription run out, in favor of Remix, which feels much fresher and more in line with what I care about. Electronic Musician is best summed up by their cover article from a few months back, about how to mic an acoustic guitar.

WHAT IS "ELECTRONIC" ABOUT MIKING AN ACOUSTIC GUITAR? Simply using Protools while you drool over analog gear and old-school technique DOES NOT make you cutting-edge.

I feel like I should qualify this review, because it may sound overly harsh. This IS NOT a bad magazine. This is just not what I am interested in- I hoped for the latest technology, plugins, soft synths, and most importantly, new techniques to use with them. This magazine is much more conservative than it first lets on, and a great majority of their pages is devoted to analog mindset. Is there anything else quite like a good old-fashioned analog compressor? If there is, you won't find out about it here.

A1 Publication - One of the Best out There June 7, 2005

By James Shannon Bussey

Subscription Term Name:1 year

As a music professional I have subscriptions to numerous magazines, Everything from Guitar One to Recording Magazine. Therfore I was reluctant to spend more money on another magazine until I received one those cards for a "free issue" in the mail. Man was I glad to get that. EM is one of the best magazines in the industry and it covers just about every aspect. Interviews with the industries top producers, 10 or more reviews per issue. May's article on "Affordable Solutions for Studio Acoustics" was worth the yearly subscription by itself. So don't wait like I did, its no telling what you might miss.
