Hey All! So my band recorded our first single at the weekend in my home studio (it's not the best setup, but we got a useable sound out of everything so I'll take that as a win!) and this is really the first time I've mixed symphonic metal before, so I would love some a) general tips for mixing...

Hi All, I'm looking at a first set of drum mics here and I'm having a bit of a struggle between 2 sets. Firstly, I know they're not going to be the greatest quality, seeing as they're a first set and I'd rather not spend too much on what essentially is a project studio (plus I don't have the...

Hi All, I'm mixing a few more bands recently and one thing I would absolutely love to nail is the Power Pop / Pop Punk drum sound, in particular like these 3 bands; Actions! - Devil Words (Official Video) - YouTube (Actions! - Devil's Words) We Are The In Crowd - Lights Out - YouTube (We Are...

Hi All! (lots of questions recently) As the title says, will I need a wordclock with this setup; Focusrite 18i20 into PC via USB 2.0 Behringer ADA8000 into 18i20 via ADAT If I remember correctly, I should be able set the ADA as the master sync and all will be well, but I just want to check...

Hi All, Not exactly your typical SDC vs LDC thread here. I have 2 condenser mics, a Samson C01 Pencil SDC and a PreSonus LDC. Say I have the rest of a drum kit miked up properly, but also wanted to record the Hats and the Ride as well. Which type of condenser would you use for which cymbal...

Hey All, Seeing as I'm about to take the plunge and totally revamp all my equipment, the only thing I'm truly lacking now is a space to actually record (minus the church we use for band practise, but it's hardly ideal seeing as its 3 towns away and I don't have keys...). What are your guys...

Hi all! I recently have been given an older Mac as well as a Digi002 control surface. The interface has 4 inputs as well as ADAT and SPDIF I/O. Now, if I bought a mic preamp, I could connect this to the 002 using the ADAT connections and that will give me 12 inputs. Is it possible to daisy...

Hi All! Well it's that time of year - I need to upgrade my interface to expand my studio until I win the lottery and buy a perfect PC and massive mixing desk. I've narrowed it down to 2 choices; - Tascam US16x09 - M-Audio M-Track Eight Essentially what I'm after is the ability to portably...

Hi All! There's this very strange thing happening at the start of this song after the first snare hit.. Basically, it's almost like the mastering chain stops the bass from coming in straight away, I can't figure it out. Here is a dropbox link to the song I'm working on - it only happens in...

Hi all, I've only just joined, and I would like to get some feedback on a new mix/master I've finished. I started mixing this about 2 days ago, I've only been able to listen to it on headphones and monitors, I've not had much chance to go around other places and listen to it there. This is only...
