Pff. I don't know what part you guys don't understand. As far as I know, for recording great vocals and guitar, you need a good mic, a good audio interface, a good guitar, and acoustic treatment. I know for a fact I have all but the last. Rode NT1-A, Scarlett 2i2, a 400$ Ibanez guitar. But...

Alright, the last thread was quite messy with me having too many questions most of which ended up forgotten in the thread and/or people not directly answering the questions. So I think it's best for me to encapsulate everything I have to ask in one single sentence. That's all you have to look...

Thanks for helping me, Old Fart, you rule Yeah, should I move further away from the mic then? But if I do that the room echo kicks in and it's garbage. Don't you think that creating a small recording space like in the RODE -video could sound better than an untreated room with tons of...

Hey, i'm looking at your signature "Cheap Computer - Cheap Mic - Cheap Preamp - Cheap Instruments - Getting the job done!" How do you handle room acoustics?

I know, not even a whole roll of gaffer tape could contain my awesomeness

I already said there isn't a notable difference if I remove the pillows. I admit I could've posted a demonstration, I'll do that right now https://soundcloud.com/atibingler/comparison First one is with pillows around, and around the middle forward is without pillows, in a completely...

No, not at all, Mr. Honorary Fart, I read your advice but like I said room treatment with panels isn't a possibility for me. There are windows on the places where they're supposed to hang so it's impossible to hang the panels there, it would just be too much hassle. But surely the cheap & easy...

So guys, do these sheets (80% polyester, 20% acryl) absorb sound the same way the 100% polyester batting does? Is 20% acryl bad?

Because I've got to do something and room acoustics like panels on the walls is not an option for me, so I'm trying to do the same thing the founder of Rode (mind you) advises me to do, making a good-sounding room fast and easily. That's got to be better than my current setup with pillows and...

Hey guys, I couldn't find any store that sells polyester batting that I could stuff inside quilt covers like in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np-dyi0wWRQ @3:20 But instead I found a sheet made of polyester, that looks something like this: It's 80% polyester and 20% acryl...

I would like more high-end naturally, right now it sounds very murky. I want it to have more brilliance and clarity. This recording is with the mic placed at my 12th fret and 5-6 inches away from the guitar. It still sounds pretty much the same the further I move from the mic. Also, removing...

Sure here is something: https://soundcloud.com/atibingler/without-eq-or-anythying Apparently there's a lower tempo in the start by mistake, dont get scared, it will speed up lol

Honestly I have no idea what I'm doing I wanted to record music so I just bought a mic and an audio interface (Rode NT1-A and Scarlett 2i2). I know my gear is good, but I'm not happy with the sound I'm getting so I google "Room acoustics 101" because I'm no rocket scientist...

Thanks, cool and simple advice. I'm reposting my pic from the 1st page so it doesn't "drown" in the thread. So, can you guys help me in making my recording space as good as possible? But please use this picture as a base, quilt coats hanging from the roof on the sides, it makes a...

I do have a big fluffy rug on the floor. :) That should help kill reflections.. The other suggestion I've kind of been suggested here, is that i'd have a cloud in the roof, but to compensate, i'd have a thin wooden panel on the floor. How far off are these two options sound-wise? (fluffy rug...
