Anyone have experience with any of the retailers that sell "new" copies of the full version of AA1.5 on Ebay? Just like anyone else, I'd like to save a buck, but at the same time a copy selling at 50% of retail seems shady to me. However, a lot of these places look like legitimate companies...

I'm selling a MXL V67 mic with generic shockmount. Electronically, mic is in perfect condition, stored in case with silica packet when not in use. Slight cosmetic damage in the form of scratches from shockmount. Pictures attempt to outline these scratches. Looking for $85 shipped UPS ground...

Not "how do you use them", but really, when do you find yourself using them in your recordings? I find I tend to use them after I set my levels and effects, but a part still sticks out too much. What I do is split the track with the offending part, then use the envelope to bring the volume...

Hey everyone- If someone could take a listen to my clip, it'd be greatly appreciated. This is the first time I've mixed myself where there has been more than just acoustic guitar, bass, and voice. Now I've got 16 tracks with drums, guitar, bass, vocal, background vocals. Needless to say, it...

How do I set delay in Adobe Audition to repeat a certain number of times for specific time intervals? I want a vocal phrase to repeat 3 more times after it is sung, once per beat. Right now, I copy/paste the part I want to repeat, line them up at the proper time interval, and set envelopes...

When would I want to use each to reduce background noise in recordings? I've heard lots of talk that noise reduction can leave "artifacts" and make the recorded sound change in tone. I've also read here that if you don't set a noise gate properly, the sound will drop off unnaturally. Can...

I'm currently recording a demo/EP in a studio. Depending on the results, I think I am going to have it mastered. What is your preferred format to receive a 2 track mix? For tracking, it's going to DAT then we are mixing in the computer. After that, the format can be whatever. I've seen a...

Hey everyone- Right now, I've got a decent setup that I record with. Currently, I have a 2 channel preamp through a 2 channel compressor into my 2 channel Audiophile 24/96. The 24/96 out goes directly to my speakers. As I have my setup right now, I only use the compressor as a noise...

I was able to borrow a bass guitar for one of my songs. Up until this point, I've just focused on acoustic guitar and voice. If anyone could comment on the mix I have made, that would be great. This has definitely been my most ambitious recording to date, with guitar/vocal/bass/guitar...

Anyone here have any experience with this mic? I used the search function, ADK only came up sporadically... I picked one up tonight on sale for $300, based on a salesman's recommendation. I've only gotten to use it about 2 hours now, so I haven't been able to form a concrete opinion...

I'm looking to build my own computer, so I am beginning to price out parts. Does it matter what ATX case I use? www.endpcnoise.com has cases for like $150 that are supposed to be quieter, but I can get one from CompUSA for $25 and a $50 sound kit and do it myself. Is this reasonable logic...

I picked one up the other day to replace my Behringer MX602a mixer. Clearly an improvement, but I guess that goes without saying! One thing I like is the "MicLim" feature, which is just a built in switchable compressor that keeps you from overloading the input. A useful feature it seems...

I am pretty new to home recording, so I've been experimenting with all the equipment I own in different combos, instead of going with just the "traditional" uses of each mic. I've found that I am completely backwards on my preferences. I bought 2 MK012's for recording acoustic guitar, but I...

Hey all- On wednesday, I have my pre-production meeting to record two songs that will eventually be a part of my first EP. My question is, what additional parts do you hear (if any)? Here's the link to my demos: http://home.comcast.net/~randyzwitch For 'Indiscretion', I was thinking the...

So I got a MXL V67 to try and make my vocals a little better sounding over a Shure PG57 dynamic. I also experimented with double tracking the vocals for the chorus, something I've never done before due to voice limitations! If you could listen and answer these questions, or make other...

Could someone suggest some settings for me to try and make a track a little more "full" without a real audible reverb-y sound? Sometimes I record a vocal part which I don't want to double, or an acoustic guitar line that I'd like to be a little more full. Thanks!

So tonight I decided to just "wing it", set up my 2 OKtava MK012's and sort of do a "live" demo, and to my amazement, I sound so much better just doing the parts at the same time. I realize that this can be as viable a method as any to recording, but after I record those two parts, if I add any...

I've just started homerecording, here's my equipment: Behringer mx602a mixer 2 Oktava MK-012 condensor mics Martin D-16RGT acoustic. I've been having trouble getting a decent recording without the boominess of the actual guitar. This clip was recorded using one mic over the shoulder and one...

I just bought 2 MK-012's at the GC labor sale and have playing with them for a couple weeks now. I've been trying to record my Martin acoustic and have found a couple decent placements. My problem is that the mic placement sounds great for the entire chord progression except for when I play an...
