Music Technology is the most important puzzle piece to the music industry. Without the evolution of equipment, recording software, electronic instruments and controllers, music will be very similar and boring. The first recording device was invented in 1857, which could capture and examine sound waves. 158 years later, sound is recorded digitally into software which allows you to alter the sound you captured in anyway you want to. With the expense of the technology increasing and the software getting more and more simple, music is evolving alongside it. Instruments have gotten more and more electronic as years progress; now a days, a track with no synth or MIDI input is rare to find.
Because of the production of music getting easier and easier, there is an increase of people who have started making music. Before digital recording, you had to be trained in Analogue recording to be able to capture or produce anything. Now that everything is digital and runs through computer software, everything has become easier. Recording studios have become so straightforward, that people have them set up in their houses and their bedrooms. Recording, producing and putting your own music online is very quick and very easy.
