HOME PAGE: A starting, or reference point. Hi, my name is, Stephen B. Ruppe, and I’m Just a guy on a mission to share what little bit he’s learned in the areas of: Writing & Recording Music
ABOUT ME: The story behind this website and its creator. Like many of you out there, I enjoy writing and recording music and dealing with all forms of audio. It can be in the form of a song, audio-for-video, podcasts, whatever… I just think it’s incredible what one can do with audio before and after it has been captured on tape or some other medium…
MY MUSIC: Here’s where I’ll provide links to my original music (NO AI). Some of the music will be from years ago containing 4-track cassette recordings, and such. I’ll try my best to keep it up-to-date.
THE BLOG: The categories are as follows:
- STUDIO SESSIONS – Centered around writing and recording music in the home studio; Hands-on video walkthroughs, Logic Pro tutorials, NI Komplete, and practical recording workflows…
- DEMOS / REVIEWS – Honest audio equipment shootouts, instrument showcases, and hands-on gear evaluations. Discover how different guitars, amps, plugins, and recording hardware actually perform in a real studio
- LINER NOTES – Thoughtful commentary on the craft of songwriting, gear philosophy, and music-making. A text-first space for exploring creative workflows, arrangement notes, and production ideas for independent musicians.
- OFF THE RECORD – Reflections and personal updates. A casual corner for real-time observations and life outside the studio.
