I am having a little trouble with my levels/balance. I have two guitars panned far left and right in the chorus, I have both these guitars sounding right with the rest of my song and they both sit around -18-. These guitar parts only play in the chorus and I have two other guitar parts that...

Hi everyone, Giving grouping a go for the first time to see if it helps with my balancing/levelling as I just can't seem to get it right going track by track. I'm hoping to get the guitars sitting right together... then the drum section sitting right together separately then bring either...

Hi everyone, Normally I just record any drum parts on my electric drumkit but due to the lack of variation decided to give AD a go. I decided today to just add some percussion to a song I've almost completed, was just going to tap the required cymbal using the AD popup when selected while the...

Strangest thing I've only began to notice. I only managed to figure it out tonight as I thought it was related to the pickups and only an issue when strumming the strings. However without strumming or touching a string I noticed i can make the same crackling noise just by touching a certain...

I bought myself this https://www.thomann.de/gb/valeton_dapper_indie.htm as I thought its going to be the simplest way to achieve what I'm looking to do but getting nowhere and hoping someone cant point me in the right direction. Right now I'm not plugging into an amp but just using it with...

I have a cracking set of wireless headphones and would love to use them instead of having my wired ones hooked up to the audio interface for playback. So far I'm set up like this. Guitar > Fx pedal > Scarlett Solo AI (usb connection ) > PC > Bluetooth wireless headset. Problem i'm having is...

I may just be my own worst critic but im never happy with how anythings sounding and i could fool around for hours and never get it any closer to what i want it to sound like. There are 3 or 4 stages if ive read correctly and im always stuck at level 2/3 depending on how many stages there is...

So bit of a random request but thought best to ask on here. Looking for the best budget headphones with mic for recording/mixing. Reason i asked about the mic... i also play computer games online and also need a new headset... so may aswell kill two birds one stone. thanks

Happy new year all! Looking to sort this bass issue out im having... All my recorded bass lines seem to have a louder output when I strike the D or G string than the A and E... infact I would probably say the loudest being the G and the quietest being the E. No idea why this is happening as...

Really struggling with 3 guitars all with a bit of overdrive varying from slightly to more distorted, playing counter riffs similar to the strokes/Xtc/Television/Blur. No single notes a lot of Rhythm/Lead riffs two strings etc.. and again countering each other to create an off kilter angular...

I got one and amongst the bundle pack with it..it mentions having a guitar amp simulator plugin.. however I've downloaded the whole thing and when I go through my plugins on reaper I cant find one at all and I've been through all the new plugins installed unless I'm missing something ? I'm...

Hey, so reaper has the mono switch I tend to find I have a better ear for doing levels when in mono as its all grouped together... however if I take mono off when im done it sounds off due to some tracks being panned in the stereo mix. I came to ask this really. If I pan where I want the...

For weeks I've been struggling to get my mix sounding right everything sounded really muddy but if I dropped the bass guitar track volume it would help but the bass would be too low in the mix... However I decided to render my song down to MP3 and played it in my car... Wow the bass sounds...

just did my first mix if you can call it that... I recorded balanced,panned and a tiny bit of eq but might be doing the eq bit wrong. Im looking for input on if my levels sound way off... I think I have a problem where I hear things are out that aren't and boost too much certain tracks etc...

Hey everyone, long time songwriter long time procrastinating recorder.... I'll start with what I use and set up. I record in my living room, I have two studio monitors about 8 feet away from me on stands and have them slightly turned inwards to hit me centrally, I use a boss 8 track digital...

hey hoping to see if I can get to the bottom of my poor sounding mastered track. I have the boss br800 and it has 8 tracks in total. 1,2,3,4 are single tracks and 5/6 and 7/8 stereo tracks. When I run out of tracks to use I like to master them down to 7/8 to make more room for other tracks but...

hey so i'm just at the point of recording my vocals and noticed that my mic has two noise issues....... one is a ground noise as I have overcome it by running wire from where the mic plugs into my Audio interface to my hand which I hold while recording and it cuts out the ground noise but the...

just wondering.... I've recorded all my tracks using sonar and when I try to get all the levels right using volume faders it just never sounds right.... it is most probably my ears and not being able to tell when something is too loud or quiet... or thinking something should be louder when it...

heres what I've got. pc: windows 10 64bit 8 gb ram, 3.9 ghz multi core cpu and disabled integrated graphics. audio interfaces : can use either my scarlett solo ( prefer not to because no effects ) or my boss br800 digital recording studio. I've tried using a few different daw's but all get...
