Records one studio recording of this composition: which record it was cut for, and who played what on it. Belongs on a page in the Song: namespace — see PickiPedia:Compositions.

Usage

{{Studio version
|record=4masks
|number=1
|recorded=3 April, 2024
|studio=Tunesmith Studios, Nashville TN
|engineer=Jake Stargel
|Justin Holmes=guitar, vocals
|Kyle Tuttle=5-string banjo
|Harry Clark=mandolin
}}

A composition cut twice carries two of these. That is the point of putting them here: the same tune on two records is one page with two recordings, not two pages that happen to share a name.

Parameters

  • record - the record this recording was made for. Required, and a page title.
  • number - its position on that record, if known.
  • recorded, studio, engineer - about the session.
  • Any other parameter is read as a musician: the parameter is their name, the value is what they played, comma-separated.

What it records

One subobject per musician, carrying Has record, Has performer, Has track number and Has instrument. One per musician rather than one per recording, because a subobject holds a set of values and not a set of pairs — the name and the instrument have to share a subobject to stay attached to each other.

Everything else reads those. Template:Record tracks builds a record's track listing from them; Template:In the studio builds a musician's sessions. Neither keeps a copy, so a lineup corrected here is corrected everywhere.
