    Reason's Drum Machine

    Thats what I did and figured it out... Copy and paste is a beautiful thing! By right clicking on the redrum and having the L and E sections positioned right allows you to take that beat you have in redrum and place it in the sequencer. Dont even have to use the yellow automation screen although...

    Vocal Ideas/Tricks in the Mix

    I have always eq'd vocals slightly. You are correct about mic placement and quality. I myself have some pretty nice mics along with a great setup. However we arent in a studio and sound out of a bathroom or walkin closet or living room wont be the same as a vocal booth or great room in a...

    In support of Guitar Center

    That would be a shame... Its all evolving. Grocery stores used to be corner stores now they are dime a dozen but just like they used to be but now they all have the same name. Kroger, Giant Eagle, so on... Plus the smaller stores are the people who actually care and arent just there to look...

    Doubling Tracks. Any Other Way?

    This will give you a chorus sound only because we are human and cannot do the exact( I mean the exact) same thing twice. So each take will be slightly different. Also you can copy and paste. Also you can try... for a thick choruseeeee sound, doubling/copy & paste whatever... the two seperate...

    Right. Now being unfamiliar with cubase as I use pro tools mostly and reason and so on... I would think that there would be a bus and or sends probly both right??? Im not sure if that would have anything to do with them. For all of your mono audio tracks did you set up one master stereo fader...

    Monitoring headphone?

    Headphones, Monitors, Near-field monitors... When mixing it is best to use multiple sources of sound. Here you will find mixing alot easier because you will hear things in one that you hadnt found in one of the others. This is what I've found!

    Best sounding album you have ever heard?

    Great great and great... Also the new Tool album 10,000 Days. Love it! Helium was used in the making of this album... How you might ask?> They put helium in the studio to get higher transient highs. Interesting huh.. Read that in Recording Magazine!! Its a good one!

    Any great alternative to the SM57 for the snare?

    Sm57 An alternative to using one SM57 are two SM57s! One above and one below... In phase with each other this produces a very nice sound capturing pop and attack on the above and the snare thick sound from below. Out of phase both will be weak! ;)
