Recording with Logic Pro, X AKG stereo pair Microphones 414S - Babyface Pro soundcard. Album number 13 for my label. One track on the album of a solo viola da gamba, has a sound problem. It is recorded on a beautiful old instrument, perfect acoustic but a shrill top string. Tried futzing with...

Hello, Here's a damn stickler! I've been recording for about one year with Focusrite control on Mac connected to the Clarett 4 Pre and Logic. After months of Googling and forums I have found NO answers to the following questions : 1 - If I try to mute my input devices from Focusrite Control...

Hi, I recorded two instruments (arabic qanoun and a viola da gamba!) plus a narrator. I opted to record as it was in the concerts that were done of this program. So two AKG 414S stereo pair on the instruments and two Neumann KM 184 stereo pair for the narrator. The set up was like this Now we...

After posting about clicks after having bounced a track with some really smart answers, and followed the instructions (reduce RAM use by other programs) this morning a real stickler. I bounced and rebounced the same track over and over. Each and every time even when Logic was the only open...

I have been recording the viola da gamba for quite a while now. I'm both a sound engineer and performer. I noticed as this instrument especially is very rich in harmonics it sort of saturates in excellent headphones (Sennheiser for example). Nothing to do with gain or mixing. I checked my own...

Hello, I am carefully listening to my double album (baroque music) for the millionth time. From to time to time while bouncing I'll get a click. Here is what I'm bouncing : Why? If I go back and bounce a second time usually that does the trick? I thought maybe, just maybe I should close...

Just bought it and started recording with it. Nice to have the Thunderbolt connection. I'm used to the RME Babyface Pro. I'm now recording with a stereo pair of the AKG 414 microphones. It seems to me that I have to shoot the gain way up (classical music) compared to the Babyface Pro and the...

Hi, I just bought a stereo pair (= 2) AKG C414 XLS microphones. Started some tests and noticed that it seems there were 2 channels =2 microphones??? in each. I have been using the Neumann KM 184 which are very straightforward. I'm sure there must be something in the AKG lenghty manual but if...

I just unpacked by new Focusrite Clarett to find that the Thunderbolt connection is the "old" one = Thunderbolt 2. I have a 2 meter cable I bought from Apple. But of course the Macbook Pro has the new (smaller) what is known as either Thunderbolt 3 or USB-C. Anybody can recommend an adaptor or...

I just wanted to follow up on my previous thread here https://homerecording.com/bbs/equipment-forums/microphones/transporting-brand-new-akg-414-plane-393915/ I have just made the transatlantic trip from New York to Paris with all of my equipment = 2 brand new AKG 414 stereo pair set plus a...

I don't know if this is the right place to post this. But as transporting large electronic equipment in a plane just got more complicated I want your advice. I'm American but live in Paris. Musician and sound engineer. I will be acquiring the wonderful AKG 414 thanks to all of your...

Hello, I record mostly classical music. I've been using the KM 184 for over a year now very very happy. But often I have certain conditions such as : 1 - Recording ensemble and singer/singers 2 - A narrator in an echoey church accompanied by an instrument 3 - A larger ensemble And think it...

What is your take on these? I record classical music mostly in churches and concert halls. For a classical singer would this be a good bet? Do I need a stereo pair or just one? I have two Neumann KM 184 already and this would be just to mike the singer. Thanks in advance for your answers!

I'm recording with a pair of Neumann KM 184 on a RME Babyface Pro. Very excellent results. For all the instruments I've recorded, mostly baroque but also the piano. I find though I need something that is more adapted for singers as the KM 184 details a little too much. Any recommendations...

Which MACbook pro best for on site recording? Hello, After many recording sessions my Sony Vaio VGN AW which I admit is rather old caused us quite a scare during a live classical recording session in a church a few days ago. Although using Reaper, apparently low in CPU demands compared to...

Hi I just purchased TWO Neutrik NA3 MDF https://www.thomann.de/fr/neutrik_na_3_mdf.htm I'm thinking of using them for my 6-meter cables. That is to extend by adding two more 2.5-meter cables. Using Neumann KM 184 microphones powered by the RME Babyface Pro (phantom power of course). As a...
