    Need Help With MIDI

    I have a synth rack, Planet Phatt, as well as a M-audio keystation usb (w/ no midi out/in/thru) and the midi sport device. I want to be able to make music using the synth rack inside of Pro Tools. Any help? I've spoke with other forums as well and just can't seem to get a grasp on what I want...

    Same EQ Freqeuncy problem each time...what does that mean?

    So I've been recording the last few weeks inside of this booth (idk the measurements, but its not that large, its padded, etc) and when I start mixing I notice that EACH session (with the same artist) the 250khz-500khz range makes the vocals sound boxy so I usually do a severe cut with a very...

    Recording Superior Vocals Tips (Consonants, Vowels, P's, S's)

    As I listen to a lot of records (this pertains to hip-hop/rap) I notice that there are ZERO breaths. But this is not my question. My question is how do the artists and engineers get the words out so clearly. There is literally no spit, slurs of words and each consonant is so clean. Do they...

    How Do YOU Get A Sweet Vocal Sound?

    No it depends on how you mix them. One take could have little to zero compression while the other has much more (think parallel compression). The lead is set how you want it to sound then the doubled track you can eq out some highs & mids possibly so that it sits right with the 1st take. So its...

    When EQing only 3- 4 db??

    From my reading it was said no more than +6db or -6db. I forgot where I read this; but it was a reliable source nonetheless. Of course it depends because the deeper cut the less subtle it begins to sound. Of course you could use a few EQ's with small cuts or boosts and it can help get the...

    Need A Decent Interface to use Rack Mounts

    At the moment I've got only a mbox 2 mini. I wish to use my Aphex Aural Exciter 104 w/ big bottom in my mixes (outboard). I've looked at the saffire unit, motu and presonus. I basically need more I/O's so I can send a signal out of Pro Tools into the Exciter and then back into pro Tools with...

    Mic Pre, Compressors, EQ Question

    I havent read all the other posts but a good starting Pre is the Avalon 737 if you just want a solid piece of gear. Personally I havent gotten a particular tone from it tracking vocals. It has only acted as a preamp for the mic. But it is a solid piece of gear nonetheless. Several engineers have...
