First of all... great forums... very helpful.
Here's my problem: We constructed our own studio and have a ton of equipment ready to go... but when I record the drums into the computer, the recording quality isn't the greatest and the sound level is very low and it's frustrating me. I have experience in production, but I never set up a studio myself, so I don't fully know all the technical stuff... here's what we're using:
-Sound Blaster Live Plantinum sound card
-Acid Pro 3.0
-Mackie CFX 12 Mixer
-Shure AM 10 mics (i know not the best... but the sound should still be better than it is)
Now I've checked all the inputs/outputs on the computer, mixer and mics themselves and everything is cool. I even checked all the volume control levels on the computer to make sure they were right and they are.
The sound is just very low even though the level is peaking like crazy on Acid. Any suggestions or help is appreciated. Thanks.
