There’s a big difference between making a recording, and making a RECORD. Of course, a microphone and a computer (cell phone, tablet, etc.) can make recordings. But it takes an experienced, skilled person to make a record that sounds great.
With today’s affordable, digital audio recording gear, it’s no longer necessary to use a traditional recording studio for CD quality results. However, just because good audio recording gear and software is available, this doesn’t mean anyone can make a broadcast quality product. That takes a set of skills developed with years of experience. Because those skills don’t come with the software, nor are they available as a plug-in!
