Just one more quick one I think. When you're recording, guitar/vocals/anything really are you keeping the volume/signal fairly low during recording (seems like you can record what sounds like a perfectly clean sound with no real room noise) and then boosting it with the output on EQ?
I'm already working on building my room treatment and trying to isolate the noises in the room (fans in computer, making sure the AC isn't blowing air anywhere close to the mic, etc) and I could just need to keep working more and more on that but I noticed when recording my guitar yesterday if I put the mics pretty close and turned the gain down, looking at the wave form the signal was really low(quiet?) but it sounded super clean.
Thanks as always for the help everyone, I really can't belive the wealth of knowledge on this forum.
