Hey people! So I know it's not the latest shiniest thing, but after a LOT of thought about a desperately needed/wanted control surface I've decided on the older Digidesign Control 24. I'm definitely a Logic guy but I've been using Pro Tools 10 a little more lately and it's not so bad :thumbs...

Hey people! I was planning on getting the MCU Pro after realizing that there aren't really any other options for control surfaces that would work for me except for the Behringer X-Touch which is set to release soon. It seems the MCU Pros are very deeply and intuitively integrated with Logic, and...

Despite no one replying, I figured this one out through lots and lots of searching. For others looking into the MCU Pro, I found out that the "mackie protocol" is higher resolution than typical midi and instead of 127 steps (of fader levels for example), the MCU pro has a little over 1,000...

Hello everyone! I may be posting this in the wrong topic, so if I am then oops! But I'm pretty sure I'm going to get a Mackie Control Universal Pro with 2 extenders to use as a control surface with Logic. I have heard that control surfaces that work through MIDI are a serious pain due to only...

Not trying to reawaken this thread, but just to give an update I ended up finding a Blue Kiwi in my school's mic locker. Apparently almost no one even knew my school had one! A few people here who had even heard of it even said it sounded like crap, I guess they were blinded by the Neumann name...

Hey man, thanks so much for all of the info and the offer! I live pretty far from Massachusetts, and about 2 to 2 1/2 hours from Framingham, so it would be quite the trip but I really appreciate having the option if I can't find another way to get my hands on a Kiwi! The clarity just blows my...

I can't get into the mic locker and studios (except during class) but I have friends on studio staff who have access to it whenever.

I live in connecticut, so I'm probably not too close to anything like that, but my school has recording studios and an extensive mic locker. I'm a music production major and I don't have access to the studios myself, but I know some people who could probably get me in to try out some mics now...

I keep going back and forth trying to find the perfect microphone for my voice online, so I really need some help. I'm finding myself making a decent amount of money for an 18 year old lately, but I don't have the opportunity to try mics out really so it's just been a search with no ending...

Entire software would probably be best! Maschine looks incredible, but it's a little expensive for my taste! What software would you suggest for pop? and if it's suited to rock that would be great as well!!

I make pop music similar to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYhLjYGpxC4 Could people give me suggestions on how I can get a hold of some incredible drum sounds?? Any help would be hugely appreciated, thanks!!

Here's the mix: New Years Song | Scott Ogilvy Is this mix "there" yet in all aspects? It gets a little muddy at the last chorus, how can I fix that? Is this mix at a professional level? How can it get "there"? I think that I should be able to get this sounding nearly perfect because there are...

I just released an EP so I'm not gonna change anything on those songs now, BUT I would really like to know what I could improve on in the future! These are pretty poppy, and you'll pick up on it right away, so I'm shooting for the most hi-fi sound possible! Sampler ;) | Scott Ogilvy By the way...

I think you may be right! At least until I can afford a few great vocal mics anyway.. So what pre-amps would you recommend for $1000 and below? Are there any worth getting in that price range?

I did that, and it still has that click when played from my ipod (to headphones). So it's not my speakers if that's what you mean by system. And I'm sure I don't have a stutter. This has happened with other singers that I've recorded as well.
