Hi all, I use a Focusrite Sapphire USB6 for my vocal recording needs. However, I've just got a great new PC with a powerful motherboard, touting excellent onboard graphics for games etc. Is it possible for Windows to use both at the same time? So I don't have to switch my 3.5mm jack from the...

Hi there, Pizz here, a vocalist and writer from Manchester UK. I'm currently in a band producing indie rock music, doing well around the north of England. I'm looking for side projects, to write and perform vocals for. I'm interested in anything from Rock to Hip-Hop, Electronic - Experimental...

Hey all, I'm a singer/songwriter, looking for something fresh to work on. I'm really looking for a track which needs a vocal, or if you have ideas for the vocal, we can work together on. I'm currently in an indie band picking up speed in the UK. I squeeze a lot of writing and recording into my...

Hey all, I'm looking to get some opinions on this song. I wrote/recorded it between midnight - 4am last night. The words speak for themselves I hope, this isn't the easiest time in my life. I'm always looking to write vocals for tracks, so if you have anything let me know! But yeah, what do...

Hi, I currently run Win7 64bit, with Cubase 5 32bit installed. I have 6gb of RAM, but i'm upping that to 12gb in the next couple of weeks. Will cubase feel the benefit or will I have to go to Cubase 5 64bit to get any benefit? What are the differences exactly? thanks!

Hey all, I've posted a thread in the MP3 clinic regarding any advice to generally get this mix sounding better. However, what are your thoughts on the vocal specifically in this track i've started? Thanks :) http://soundcloud.com/pizzimperfect/i-want-my-life-back-pizz-13-09

Hey all, Below is a track I started writing/recording a few days ago. It just doesn't have that shine I feel it needs. And i'm tinkering on the edge of the knowledge I have to polish it. I just want it clearer.. better mixed.. but i'm unsure of what specifically to attack. Any advice? To...

Hey, I'm a male vocalist looking to work with an electronic genre producer. So far my work has been with bands, and some acoustic work.. But I really want to try my hand at a different dynamic. I write vocals entirely, but will take any ideas the writer of the music has if they have something...

Hi all, I was looking to pick your brains regarding records soft, gentle vocals. My disability here is I don't own a condenser mic, which I've heard would be best due to there sensitivity. I use an AKG D5 which is quite responsive on the high end though. I'm thinking of recording a particular...

Hey all, So i'm investing quite heavily at the moment in gear, and something I really like the look of are these vocal effects boxes you can get hold of, for live use. Now, autotune isn't something i'm interested in, before someone slaps the word 'FAKE' on my head.. However effects i can...

Afternoon all, Now I know there is a similar thread on here already, but he was looking for which one can record his instruments too. From a purely vocal standpoint.. would you vote Shure SM57 or SM58? Instrument wise.. at most I may record an acoustic guitar with it.. Thanks!

Hi all, Right i'm biting the bullet and investing in monitor speakers. I'm absolutely skint at the moment and I won't have more than £100 to spend on these for some time.. So i'm just looking at the lower end market. First pair I found were USB... don't like the sound of that at all...

Evening.. Morning now actually. I was listening to Eminem earlier (guilty.) and the interesting doubling/dubbing used on his vocals. So i thought I'd have a crack.. And I'm generally pretty crap at this to be honest. But going for that thing.. Am I even close? I'm extremely tired by the way and...

Hi all. Total newb question, but just to ensure im not 'tracking too hot'.. Other than the little meter in the bottom right corner which shows your input and the red clipping light.. Is there a way to view the actual figure, what i've just played peaked at? I'm not even sure if I worded that...

Afternoon, My problem at the minute is, well I don't have any cash to spend on monitor speakers (though i've been looking all day... droooool).. I own a pair of Roland RH-200S Monitor Headphones, and a pretty standard 2.1 computer speaker system. I always use my headphones when doing a mix, but...

Hi all, So i play a bit of guitar, and sing/rap/whatever.. Have a listen to a few recordings on my soundcloud below. I'd really like to lend my voice to something electronic.. (dubstep, drum&bass, dance, ambient..) I don't mind giving samples from exsisting tracks if you think you could use...

Hi All, If you're aware of a guide somewhere which explains this alittle, please just link it up and don't worry about explaining it all. I record pretty basic tracks, usually just my vocal and my guitar.. sometimes a drum machine. I've just been reading about 'fine-tuning' a vocal sound and it...
