Howdy there, Just a quick question. I have an album thats about to go to press and have the masters back but didnt realise the vinyl pressing plant would want the album delivered as two continuous tracks (side A and side B). If I use pro-tools to link them back up and export them as such am I...

Anyone have any thoughts on the techniques used to get this great drum sound(from simians first album chemistry is what we are).....im guessing its got a lot of compresssion and side chaining......anyone ? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4809906/01%20Drop%20%26%20Roll.mp3

thanks for the advice i'll try it and post the results......time to start looking for the right room!

yeh...its just a thought....its a pretty bare recording. maybe its a very stupid thought!just something ive wanted to try and it felt like the right time to try it.

nope its a real drumkit recording...i know it sounds a bit of an odd idea, just thought it might be a way of getting some background bite. Probably gonna try it anyway, just wandering if anyone had done this with good results

Just wandering if anyone has had any experience rerecording drums through speakers. Didnt get much luck with the room mics and want to give the drums a bit more depth. Its for something quite dirty and punky and would probably be used very sparingly behind the main drum mix.......... Looking...

Hey, Ive got a Fostex FR2-LE to use for film work, just wandering if anyone has any suggestions for a sturdy good priced bag. The fostex one is a bit flimsy and doesn't really have much room for anything else in it, i don't really want to stretch my budget out to the Porta Brace bag just...

I couldnt do it personally but i may have a friend who could. Im considering taking it to a local luthier and seeing if he can suggest any commercially available necks that will definatley fit it......or have him make one i suppose. I also want to check that it definatley is the mexican 90's...

Hi there. I've got a Mexican reissue duo sonic body (circa around 1993). And im struggling to work out what size neck i can put on it. Apparently originally this would have had a 22.7" , 20 fret neck....but others are saying it would be 22.5" or 22"...... does anybody know what shortscale...

hey thanks alot for all the advice. I think i'll probably close mic and then stereo the room ambience. Ive got 2 se2200a and 2 c100s at my disposal.....im guessing use the the se2200a's for the close micing and the c100s for the stereo. Would you XY them ? Cheers Olly

Hi, I'm recording some violin for full a band song and want some advice/suggestions for how to go about it. I want to record 2 parts at same time, somewhere spacious, but i want to have control over panning so probably dont wanted to record one traditional stereo track. Is it going to be...

Ah ok. Thanks alot for that anyway...i might put it too bed then.

Hey, Saw on another thread you mentioned a broken down tascam 414, where the take up reel wasnt taking.....my 414 is displaying the same problems that the guy on that threads was. Just wandering whether you had any joy with yours...what needed replacing etc....? Thanks. Olly

Also i dont suppose anyone knows where i can get a service manual for the 414 without paying £20 ?

Just bought a tascam 414 MKII but unfortunatley its chewing tape. FF and RW work fine, but in play back and record the capstan is really loud, making a kind of motor/vibrating sound and the tape ends up getting stuck to the right of the pinch roller (in between the pinch roller and the little...

Hey thanks for your help. I ended up picking up a tascam 414 MKII for around £30. Managed to find some tape for a reasonable price, just....... danke schon

I recorded pretty much all of it with a an SE2200a. The very 6 seconds is actually just a level check that i liked and used as a little intro, so its probably off mic and pretty tinny sounding because of that....but i did have some trouble (probably because of slightly off mic placement?) with...

I'm having big problems with one particular song. I want a kind of rough,ready and pretty natural sound (within reason) but the chorus section is sounding a bit too messy and full.....i was wandering if their was anything in particular that jumps out as sounding 'bad'. Im using ableton 5 which...
