    I’ve got three questions based on a single problem, here we go :) I would like to record drums, but in my recording soundcard there’s only 4 inputs (delta 44) and I don’t want to upgrade for one session. The music doesn’t really suit the "stick two microphones up and hear exactly how the drum...

    Need advice with arrangement/composition.

    http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?fid=6919 This a bit of an odd song.. im trying to make it work more as a whole piece rather than two things mushed together. I plan on extending the electronic part at the end by a little part, i would hope it would stay under 4 minutes :) So...

    Too much dynamic range??? John Frusciante/Beck Style

    This is a song that a friend recorded at my studyo (not quite a study not quite a studio): http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?fid=6418 There seems to be a large difference between the intro and the end in loudness(mainly due to the arrangement). Should i leave it, compress/limit the mix...

    Transformer Box

    Throught this whole board everytime a piece of high end gear comes up theres a motto "the sounds in the iron". SO if this is true running audio through a nice 1:1 transformer would impart this character on the track.(see where im going here?) Why not build a box of nice transformers and run a...

    Rock/Pop Song Natural Reverb

    Alot of articles in recording magazines say that you should have an idea of depth, panning and volume before you even start to records. To me this seems reasonable, my question is how visable is it to record a pop/rock song without using any artifical reverb. This would be done with placement...

    Build two JLM Baby Animals or Buy a DMP3

    okay so i can buy two kits and a psu for £100 or the dmp3 for £150. With a case and little bits (knobs, solder etc) they probably work out the same price. So i am wondering what you recommend, also i have little experience with diy electronics (i did put a light on my xbox controller :p ) so i...
