I've been playin guitar for about 6 years now, 3 of which have been in jazz band at my school. Lately, I havent been happy with my ability to solo. I have an easy time playing blue's solos, but when i listen to jazz solos, they seem to have so much more going on in them. My biggest problem i...

Well...its new to me. My unlce just gave me his larrivee L-03 half for my birthday and half for putting in hardwood floors at his house. The thing sounds beautiful. It's better than any guitar that i planned on owning in the next 10 years. It even plays better than my strat. We'll i just figured...

Hey, i just recorded my first full band in my studio the other day, and i finished mixing one of the songs. I also have a rap song i did of a friend of mine. I was just looking to see what people thought of it. Ive been recording my own music since i was 12 (4 years ago) but now that ive put a...

Had my first big dipshit moment today. I was recording vocals for this band. I turned on the wrong mic that was in the room from when we recorded drums. So i had the vocal track picked up by a mic that was 10 feet from the singer without even realizing it until after we had finished everything...

The other day i was messing around with drum mic placement. I had a one overhead, kick, snare, high tom and floor tom miced. At first, when i was listening to just the floor tom track, i thought it was just getting alot of bleed from the kick. But when i moved the mic to somewhere else in the...

Hey, i have a crappy cb drum set in my studio that needs new heads. I been having trouble finding resonant side heads. What are some good recomendations that arent too expensive? I really can't find anything in local music stores (all one of them) and i havent had too much luck on this here...

We just got carpet put in our house and now i have extra scraps laying around. I have a 10x13x8 foot tracking room with an unfinished wood ceiling. I was wondering if its at all worth it for me to hang carpet over the drums (kind of like a cloud) to help calm down cymbals? I just figured id ask...

A song i did on my own. I did the drums with 2 joe meek jm27s for O/H, superlux fk-2 on kick, and no snare mic (thats why its so back in the mix.) Guitars were done direct through digitech or something grunge pedal, bass direct into mixer. Vocals were a shure axs-3, on one take (just fucking...

I just recorded this the other day. I did all the tracks, and seeing as im not a drummer or a bassist please dont judge the song on the playing that much. I recorded the drums with 2 Joe Meek jm27 as overheads and a superlux fk-2 on kick, bass direct into mixer (mg16/4) and into delta 44...

Alright...heres my predicament. I have a Shure KSM109, and was planning on getting another, but Ill be short about $30-40 from my next paycheck. Anyways, i was thinking about just buying a pair of MXL condensors for overheads and using the KSM109 on acoustic. I wasnt extremely pleased with the...

Whos cheap mics do you think actually perform decently? Or are they all just a serious waste of money?

Im finally finishing up my studio and I just need to get a couple more mics. For now im looking for - Shure KSM-109 Superlux FK-2 maybe Superlux FT-4

PM if you want to sell one.

PM if your trying to get rid of one.

Ive been looking at getting mics for drums and stumbled upon the Superlux FK-2. I assume its a pretty shitty mic bases on the price, but ive never heard too much negativity about the brand. Does this mic sound like a monkey shitting on a bagel? or is it any good? Is it worth it to just buy a 52...
