Hey Guys, I'm having some problems with adding reverb to my mixes. In my "mixing" room the tracks sound nice and fat but when I listen to the tracks on another set of speakers in another room, it sounds like I've added way too much reverb. Almost to the point where it starts sounding flanged...

I was just doing some searching for vocal stuff and I found a website for singers and songwriters. Please forgive me if you already know of it. http://www.musesmuse.com/

I'm just a new singer. My question is.... How do you develop a vocal style? Do you just pick someone you want to sound like (or take elements of their style) and just try to sound like them? Or is more of you use what you were born with?? I think I'm a rather plain soloist and I find my...

Hey all, I've got a question. I'm using Acid 4.0 and I want to have all tracks but my vocals be effected by reverb. By using busses can I "route" all my tracks (minus vocal) to a bus with reverb and leave the vocal dry?? If so. How do I do this?? I've tried inserting a bus and effecting it...

Hey guys, I've got an Alpha Juno 2 and it has a bum key. When I strike this particular key, the note produced is extremely loud with no in between. If you strike the key lightly, the note is still at its loudest. Can this sort of thing be repaired cheaply or is there a home remedy for this??

Hey all. I'm extremely new to recording and mixing vocals. I've recorded a quick little something for you to listen to. I'm looking for some help on the vocals. Yes it is me singing.... badly I must say but I was the only one around tonight :) Tell me why it sucks and how to fix it please...

I only have one mic available right now and I was wondering what is the best position for recording acoustic guitar. Right on the sound hole? On the neck?

Hey all. I've got a Roldand Alpha Juno 2 that I'm using as a controller. Its plugged into a Sound Blaster PCI 512. My problem is that when I record a midi track into Acid Pro 4.0, the track is soo quiet even with the main volume and midi volume turned all the way up. I've been through the...

Hey all, I like many of you only have one room in which to track and mix. I have a questiong about tracking/mixing in a room that has accoustic guitars on wall hangers. Is this bad? Sometimes if I'm mixing and I hit mute on the mains I can hear my accoustic guitars lightly resonating after...

This is a song I'm working of of my own. I primarily use my home recording setup for composing. It consists of a PII 400 with 192mb ram, a Sound Blaster 512 PCI and Acid 4.0. All the drum tracks are one hits assembled by me. The bass guitar, electric and accoustic were all tracked by me...

Guys, My recording space right now has carpeting but underneath it is hardwood flooring. I've heard two different stories on what sounds best. What do you guys think??? Carpet or no carpet?? Pacifica604w
