    Post Production mixing to mastering question!

    Our situation.. We got two different producers, one who produces on PC, the other a sampler(myself). The PC beats volume far exceeds the beats mixed and created on the sampler. We could and have a couple of times, broke the sampler beats down track by track so they would match the volume...

    Can anyone see if Im on the right page, somewhat legal.

    First off I know this is not a legal forum, or thread for that matter. I am not trying to look for legal advice here, just some opinions on what I am interpreting from what I read in my manual. I know when you purchase a product, it usually specifies you cannot sample demo work, such as those...

    Using rubber cleaner(conditioner) on Reel to Reel.

    It's been a long time since I've used analog. My guy got some rubber cleaner for his reel to reel. He freaked out a little cuz the first couple of times he used the cleaner there was so much black gunk that came off the pinch roller he thought he was doing something wrong. But if I remember...

    De-magnetizing..........Pioneer RT-707

    One of my crew members got a hold of a Pioneer RT-707 reel to reel recorder. I was wondering if anyone could give suggestion on how to de-magnetize the unit. So far he's done a little bit of test recording with it. If you have any other hints/advice, that would really be appreciated too. He got...

    On the Tascam 788, 16 vs. 24 bit, how big is the difference?

    For a grip when I had my 788 I would record everything in 24 bit, occasionally I would record in 16 bit, I had only compared the two one time, didnt really hear a difference. Due to pc limitations, I have been recording everything in 16 bit now, from there I transfer the WAVs to pc and we mix. I...

    Tascam 424, some issues with tape speed playback.

    I know the best thing is to take my 4-track to a service center. But I am curious if somebody else may have had the same problem and whether or not it's even worth fixing. I have had this unit for about 5 years, up until two years ago it worked fine. I quit using it when the unit started acting...

    What mic to use and when to use it!!!

    I have been in question about this every since I started to understand the differences in mic quality and desired sound. Currentyl I am recording with a Rode NTK mic. The issue is I listen to older material I recored with my Shure SM58 and notice the Shure has a "fuller, more accurate low end"...

    Yeah, thats cool but...........

    "DJ / Hip-Hop / Rap / Beats (3 Viewing) Are you the bomb? Or do you wannabe?" I dont know why it is forbiden, but I respect that the BBS board wants all producers and artists to drop their links to beats and other music in the MP3 clinic section. SO, ya'll need to change the title of this...

    Tell us again how pointless it is to mix with the monitors crancked up loud.

    I remember reading this years ago. That it was a rule of thumb and kinda pointless to crank up your monitors while you are mixing. I know it throws things off. My crew understands that and we just werent paying attention. But started to notice mixing mess ups. A lot of times our mixer guy would...

    Need a Little advice on how to set up my mixer.

    My guy hooked me up with his Eurorack MX 2004A 16 channel mixer to use for a while. Here is where I am kinda confused. It has three outputs that I see. An "alternet output" L/R, "Main ouput" L/R(both these are stereo plug outputs) and one "2-track tape" output(and input as well), which are...

    Mixing with compression

    I know this question has been probably asked a grip of times. But let me ask again from my situation. Currently I use wav form sounds (internal sound waves). So they are not compressed or tweakt its just the raw sound. If I use just the raw wavs and mix the song with eqing, the bass/kicks never...

    How much should I worry about the legal aspect of music?

What I mean by legal is, how do I know when to report earnings as far as tax purposes?, does it matter if I am a legit label (so to speak)? cuz right now Im just a name, nothing in legal writting saying Im...
