Ping Ponging
is a standard term used in the process of
recording
an
album
.
The standard analog
home recording system
takes a blanks
cassette
tape, and breaks it into 4
tracks
. This typically means that only four
musical instruments
can be recorded on a single song, so one has to choose the
music
carefully.
When one
Ping pongs
more tracks can be recorded. on a standard 4-Track up to
Ten
individual
instruments
can be playing
at the same
time
.
The process that allows this to happen is rather interesting. Using a
4-Track recorder
one may pre-record the first three tracks. Then, after proper
mixing
of sound levels, the first three pre-recorded tracks can be
recorded
down to the fourth track while the fourth instrument is played live. To
maximize
the space of the
4-track
and get all
ten
instruments
, you can do as follows:
Track one
= 1 instrument
Track two
= 2 instruments
Track three
= 3 instruments
Track four
= 4 instruments
The
quality
of the pre-recorded tracks may be slightly diminished during the process. Unless you want to pan all the tracks to
center
, decide beforehand which tracks should be to the
left
or to the
right
The
Beatles
used this process
extensively
during the recording of their song
