So my bandmate wrote this song a few weeks back and we finally got around to recording it. I'm almost ready to do the final mix but I wanted to get some feedback first to see what could be improved. http://soundcloud.com/best-nauticals/snake-song-first-render

Edit: So here's how the new mix sounds after taking in all the suggestions. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to redo vocals yet, so that will have to wait for another day. Btw, sorry cross i laid down the bass track 2 days ago and just saw your post today...

This is one of the songs off of my bands first EP, some comments and feedback would be nice. http://soundcloud.com/best-nauticals/newspice

Hey guys so I was able to get a Clarion XD-5 4 track casette recorder off of craigslist, and considering i'm only 17 and have lived in the digital age my whole life I have no idea how to use this recorder. If anyone knows something about it that would be great, Thanks

I'm looking for an XLR patchbay but i've read that my FW-1884 interface doesn't have any protection against accidental hot plugging, is there a patchbay that has some built in features for this.

So i'm using Cubase 5 and i'm trying to get a good piano sound for a song i'm recording, i've tried using some of the HalionOne presets and they work but none of them quite have the sound i'm looking for so i tried using the DSK plugins because i've had great experiences with them in the past...

So i get my shiny new Fw-1884 working pretty well with ableton 8 but some of the extra features of the control surface aren't working, such as the eq. I tried using midi mapping to fix some of the problems but ableton isn't recognizing the buttons on the control surface when i press them. So...

I'm trying to get my fw-1884 to work on my sony vaio vpcf115fm laptop. So far i've installed the 1.80 driver and so far the 1884 will connect with the computer and i can select the inputs but nothing happens and i experience occasional dropouts. If anyone knows anything useful I would be...

I was looking at buying a behringer ddx3216 off of ebay and all the features of it looked pretty good, but before I put down any serious money on a behringer product i was wondering if anyone had any experience with this mixer.

I don't know if this is the right forum to ask this in but I have a Conn Minuet 541 that has a terrible humming sound when I try to play. I've already disconnected the amp and the humming goes away, and I've tested the amp and it works just fine. So I was wondering if anyone has some ideas on...

So I've kinda been stuck in a rut right now with finding bands to record. I've already exhausted recording all my friends who are in bands and my own music and I was wondering how other people find bands to record. I'm not even looking to make any money or start a business, I just want to...

So when I was setting up my studio I purposely put the drums on the opposite side of the room from my computer so that the mics wouldn't pick up any fan noise. But now that I'm trying to do some recording with it I can't hit record get over to the drums and get ready in time to do the...

Just a quick poll but for recording guitar and bass how many people take the line out from the amp and how many people actually mic the amp. There's no question that miking sounds a lot better but line out offers much more convenience especially when recording multiple instruments at once.

The drum head I currently have doesn't have a hole in it so right now my kick drum only has one head on it. I stuffed the drum with a couple blankets and tried retuning it a bit but it still doesn't sound right, so does anyone know any ways to make this sound good for recording with only one head?

So i've been searching the forums trying to find sound proofing for a budget of next to nothing. I was wondering what common household things I could use to build bass traps and things of that nature. One of the main things I was thinking of would be to hang a big rug up on the wall would that...

So I think I've reached the point where I can say my studio is getting better than just the typical home setup. I have an 8 track firewire interface (io26) a good selection of mics both condenser and dynamic and a good computer to record on. Now i've reached the point though where I don't know...

I'm working on expanding my home studio and right now what's really lacking are my drum mics. Right now what I'm using is an Audix i5 for Snare, HH, and Crash, a CAD KBM412 for Kick, and a cheap Sennheiser for Toms and Ride. What I'm trying to do is limit my mics to 4, so I was wondering...
