Hi We're halfway through recording our album if anyone has got 33 minutes and wants to give any feedback i'd be interested to hear their thoughts. Up until now we've tracked demo versions. Our task now is to polish these songs into proper album tracks. We also need to write another couple...

Hello folks One of these things would work wonders in my studo for keeping cables tidy but I wondered whether it would be bad for the sound quality. They're called stage boxes are they best left to the stage? At the moment my preamps are on my desk (which is a really wide desk) and the mic...

Somewhere Behind Your Eyes I'm looking for comments on tracking and mixing suggestions for when I get round to it. Cheers Thanks For Listening Barn Owl

Here's me in my studio (see pics in sig), playing my Norman B20 acoustic, that has just had a set of new D'Addario medium gauge strings, with a .50 mm Dunlop tortex pick, in front of two matched MSH-1 mics both approx. 10 inches from the 12th fret < 1/2 an inch apart. One mic was sent to...

I got myself a radioshack spl meter and downloaded the free Room Eq Wizard software from Home Theater Shack after reading an article in Sound On Sound magazine. I think I followed all the instructions correctly. The graph above shows the results that I got. The straight line is something...

My keyboard skills are not that great so I can play better in some keys over others. Obviously c is easy (all the white notes). I tend to use my old duff casio keyboard to drive vst instruments. I know how to transpose a piece of midi music in cubase after it has been created. But suppose I...

Hello homerecorders I'm off to New York City for a shork break at the beginning of March and was wondering where to find the good shops to pick up studio gear? Often the mics I read about on here are expensive in the UK and i thought the good exchange rate and cheap prices might help persuade...

Hello folks this is my first post here at sos so nice to meet everyone. I've got a question that's been bugging me it's probably very simple and I was hoping someone might help me out and answer it. My signal chain goes like this: Mic > M-Audio DMP3 > Behringer UB2442fx mixer (for monitoring...

I think I'm making progress. If you had heard some of my early recordings you would be sure to agree. This time it's not my band it's a friend (probably one of the big factors). We are working together to record his album. Here's the song: Still Waters Run Shallow All comments welcome. There's...

It's that time of year again... and The Nells have been in the studio recording over the holiday period... Okay so we may have spilled some mulled wine over the microphones and the vocal takes have suffered because of mouths being stuffed full of mince pies but we have managed to pull together...

Calling all diy gurus! I've always fancied one of these stands for my acoustic guitar. The Gracie stand is pictured on the left while the K&M stand is on the left. You know how it is... one recording session you are getting great results and a great tone... but when you return the next night...

Will I Be Forgotten Tomorrow The Fishmongerers Lament You Are The Music Three newish My Handsome Nell songs... the first two are by Dougal and the third is mine... with a little help from T.S. Elliot... Vote for your favorite and tell us what you think...

Ignore this thread... see the other one...

I've recently got some new mics so this song was really just recorded to test them out... The acoustic guitar, mandola and harmonica were recorded with my new pair of Studio Projects C4's using the x-y stereo technique... and the vocal was recorded with my Red5 Audio RV15 which I got last...
