I recorded these songs, and I recorded the guitar part twice, and planned on hard-panning each to the left and right, and when I recorded everything into Cool Edit, everything sounded alright. But Then, I started to mix at a buddy's house w/ a Pro Tools set-up, and when I mixed down, all the...

I play guitar, and can keep a beat or two on drums, but have never owned a set. I have a little money (450$, I need about 100 for cymbals too!) saved up and now I'm looking to buy a drum set to have fun with/jam with buddies/ record basic stuff on...

I have 3 songs almost recorded for my alternative quasi hardcore band (total time around 17-18 min, and about 12 tracks a song). I don't have a "real" set of monitors, but I am still semi-comfortable with mixing my music. I was wondering what you all think is more important. Sending the songs to...

I play in a band with 2 guitars, bass, and drums. The guitar style is very slow and spacey, and to really push that fact I've panned the guitars hard left and right to their own side. We have 3 vocalists all doing their own thing, and it can be very abrasive at times (think earlier fugazi)...

I have an Alesis 12R mixer, a Delta 1010, and I'm going to buy a Behringer HA8000 headphone amp. I will take a 8 channel snake and connect inserts 1-8 from my mixer into ins 1-8 on the delta. Then I will take another 8 channel snake and take outputs 1 & 2 from the delta in the stereo channel of...

I'm about to buy a behringer headphone amp HA-8000 amp, but before I buy it I want to know what else I'm going to need with it. I'm putting together my set-up to record a 5 piece band. (2 guitars, 1 bass, 1 drummer). Each of the different musicians will have a different mix in their headphones...

I recorded my friends' band. I think this song came out pretty good. I'd love to hear comments on how it came out, what else I can do better, and what I could change in this mix. http://everytalesirony.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/track06.mp3

I have always mixed down "inside the computer" and would like to start mixing down through my mixer. I have an Alesis 12R mixer. I have a few dumb newbie questions. It has 8 mono mic/line in inputs and 2 sets of stereo inputs. It has 2 aux sends (one post and one pre fader) and 2 aux returns. I...

I just recently joined an alt country band and I really don't want to lug around my 4x12 every time we practice. I was looking at a cheap combo that still gets pretty loud. Has anyone played the G-60VR, for 320$ it seems way to good to be true. If anyone has played one, is it made durable? Can...

I'm recording a heavy-rock band. The bass and one guitarist drops to B and the the 2nd guitarist drops to D. I'm not used to recording music this low, and all my trys so far have resulted in very muddy sounding mixes. Does anyone have tips on mixing music this low? Any help would be great. ,Nick

I want to get a rackmount chasis for my computer. I'm not very computer savvy, what questions should I have answered about my computer so I can figure out what chasis will do. Will I be able to move the insides of my computer to another chasis with limited knowledge about computers? Is there a...

I'm trying to set-up a mobile rack and would like to see what other people's mobile set-up is. Can you post a picture of your mobile rack or post what you have in yours. I'm especially interested in how people with a computer are moving them around in their set-up. I'm thinking about getting...

I have finished mixing 6 songs for my band's first demo to be sold for a few bucks after shows. I am happy with the mixes but would like to better them some. The only two things I'm trying to do is create a little "air" and get a good consistant level throughout the demo. This is what I'm...

I have a pretty good mix of my band, but it is very busy. The guitar sound I got is huge and I have horns spread across the stereo spectrum. When I record vocals they just seem so weak and far off compared to everything. I know the first thing you'll say is "get a new singer" but when I'm...

I'm in a rock band with horns, think Less than Jake. I was wondering if someone could steer me in a good direction on how I should start panning these tracks. What I have recorded is. Drum overhead- 1 track Bass drum- 1 track Bass- 1 track Snare- 1 track Guitar- 2 tracks (I recorded guitar twice...

I recorded my friend's band because their singer/bassist was moving away and they wanted to get what they had written recorded. The recording was very rushed, so the performances are not error free, but I'd like to get some feedback of how well I did recording them. They were going for a kind've...

I just recorded my freinds band before their bassist/singer moved away. The recording process was really hurried, but I still think the songs turned out pretty good....well I'll let you guys be the judge of that ;) edit: I thought I could insert the Mp3 right into the message, I guess I'll have...

I have a Delta 1010 in my small home studio, but I don't want to drag my computer along everytime I go to record a band. So I would like to buy a 8 ch recorder so I can put all of my studio gear in a rack and have a mobile rig. I plan on recording mostly drums and bass with this set up, then...

What do you have your buffer settings set to in CEP? Specifically andyone using a delta1010, or probably and delta cards. I'm having trouble with choppy playback, and I'm not sure what buffers to change. There are about 4 different layback buffers in the options mode.

After I recorded a few songs when I went back to listen to them, they all got out of time. But tracks 1&2 are in time with each other, tracks 3&4 and so on. Is this a tell-tale sign of something that I can fix easily? I was looking in my delta1010 control panel on things that I could change, but...
