    live recording primer

    As Venuesound said, a splitter with isolated transformers is the best way to go. But I have done small events using the direct outs of a Mackie also. If you can feed the house instead of the the other way around... even better. One other thing you should consider is having a back-up recording...

    Mics/Techniques For Acoustic Grand Piano

    T-man, The links bennychico11 posted are good reads. You should learn a lot. And I couldn't agree more about having a tech go over the piano. Tuning is important, but a tech will be able to take care of any mechanical noises that might be there. It will make a big difference. The mics and...

    Live Concert Multi-track

    You're not crazy at all. Remote recording producer, Chris Mickle at Professional Sound and Recording in Denver, recorded live shows using 48 tracks in SAW Studio all the time. 5 minutes is not a good indicator of how your system will hold up though. Record for a couple hours as a test. Of...

    digitor mics...

    Gobo Harvey, I always thought the word gobo was short for go-between. A gobo in the lighting world is a pattern that "goes between" the lens and the light source. Of course, I may be wrong, but it sounds good.

    MS drum miking

    I like M-S miced drums I've had good results M-S micing a set from the front and a few feet out. But as with all micing techniques it depends on the type of music, the room and the instrument itself as to what technique and/or mic to use. neirbo: Check out the thread " How does diaphragm...

    recording brass

    I think it would be real helpful if we knew what mics you have available and what type of music/sound you're going for. I'd start off with an RE-20 on the trombone pointed at the bell. A ribbon mic would work too, but don't put it too close to the bell. There can be some good bursts of air...

    Talk About The History Of Recording

    You're not the only one that finds this stuff interesting. The stories about classic recordings is why I love my subscription to TapeOp magazine so much. I've always contended that recording teaching programs should have courses in the history of recorded sound. It helps us understand how...

    Recording classical guitar

    It really sounds as if your room is not ideal. You may want to address that problem. C1000s aren't too bad on nylon strings, you could use a second at the bridge. If you need to be close, you could try using a mic with an omni pattern. An Oktava MC-012 with the omni capsule , or if you can...

    Recording classical guitar

    I agree with Ethan, move the mic farther away from the guitar and record in a nice sounding room. Adding another mic will allow stereo micing which for a solo instrument is probably what you want. Recently I've had wonderful results with M-S micing on classical guitar from about 3 feet way...

    Plug ins

    How a plugin works all depends on the host software. They work in realtime with sends and returns in SAW Studio. I don't know about anything else anymore.
