I'm practicing some new techniques and with some new gear & plugins. Looking for rap / hip-hop tracks to mix. First come first serve up to 3. I'll do instrumentals as well if you don't have vocals yet for your track. Preferably with stems/trackout for more creative control. If you just have...

Thought this might be helpful for some of the newer members: ADSR Envelope Explained In Simple Terms ADSR is pretty important if you're working with samplers / synths, and as much as it might seem like such a simple thing to a lot of us, we didn't always know what it was. This covers the basics...

How Microphones Work - Different Types of Microphones I recently wrote this article on how microphones work, and the differences between the 3 main common types (dynamic, condenser, ribbon). I'd love to get some feedback on it. Also I'm going to include a section from it in the post below...

What are some effective ways to record electric bass guitar? I haven't had luck plugging it directly to my audio interface, even with EQ and compression I just can't achieve a good tone. Maybe it's because it's a lower end bass guitar? Should I hook it to an amp and mic the cabinet or something...

How do you guys feel about cheap condenser mics? I have this weird notion that only dynamic mics should be relatively cheap, and tend to steer away from cheaper condensers, but I recently tried out a CAD GXL3000BP (its like ~$120) and was actually quite impressed with it. It has more features...

I've come to realize most professional audio mastering engineers use hardware, so my question is this: Is software adequate for mastering? It seems like it'd be much easier to get all your tracks to similar perceived volumes on a computer...And also if the project started in software (which many...

I don't want to start a pc vs mac argument, its played out and we all know PC is better (Just kidding chill out mac guy). My question is why did Mac's become so popular in music production, and if you use a Mac why did you decide to go with it instead of building a more powerful PC for half the...
