Going to be moving house and will be moving the studio into this room, I don't want a very dead sound (I like the sound of big live drums), but I would like to get rid of some bass mud and nodes as I experienced in my old rooms. I also have another much smaller room that I will be making very...

Hello, I've got a keyboard that I use almost only for one organ sound that I use as a VSTi on Cubase. I'd like to use this setup at live shows but I'd like to make it more portable, I can't seem to find anything more portable than having a laptop set up there on the stage next to the...

What do you guys reckon to the Graphic EQ that is built in to each channel on Cubase? I usually use it and if I need some additional bands I'd open up another EQ plugin in an insert.. But I was recently thinking, that with Pro Tools etc. it doesn't have any inbuilt EQs and the inserts are all...

What is the difference between a Soft Clipper and a Limiter?

Hey guys, I'm meant to be applying for universities next year, and i'm looking at doing some sort of 'Electronics and Music Technology/Audio Engineering' type course - so basically I want to be what the baby of Greg and Steve would be. Does anyone know of any places in the US (New York or San...

I've been recording a number of people so far and things seem to be going well, but one issue I encounter is that when people bring electric guitars/basses+amplifiers to record - they often get an electrical buzz that they never had in their house or before. This has happened on multiple...

Hey there, I have someone coming in to record in a few weeks who has a Marshall AVT150, he says it has a fan, and it's pretty loud and has no bypass. Does anyone here have experience with micing a Marshall AVT150, does the fan get picked up alot? Any remedies? Thanks Chris

Hey guys, I figured this is the right place to put this. I came back from a show my band played yesterday with no problems, but this morning I seem to have developed something in my left ear - It sounds like it's going through a ring modulator or something - other peoples voices appear to be at...

Hey guys. The Presonus FP10/Firepod are said to have 8 Line Outputs, a L/R Main CR output, a L/R Cue Mix Line Out and a L/R Preamp Output. I have four questions: 1. The 8 Line Outputs, are they like 'thru' outputs for each of the preamps, where all that will come out of each output is the...

Hello, I have (2) Shure SM81s, (1) Shure SM57, and (2) Behringer XM8500s. They all have suitable situations, but none of them are giving me what I want for vocals. So, I have $270, which Large Diaphragm Condenser mics would you recommend. I plan to record a number of different...

Hey guys I was just wondering when you are recording a full album, or just any more than 1 songs, and you'll be tracking all the drums at once, then all the guitars etc. Do you put all the songs in one project file? Or keep each song as a seperate file? It seems like putting them all in one...

My band is recording an EP and this is one song we've finished so far. the mix isn't final but i thought i'd put it up here and see what people think. The problem is I can only upload it as .wma because it needs to be less than 10MB so I can't put up lossless .wav. Tell me what you think...

I searched up on this and found a post or two with the same problem, but no real solution within cubase. Anyway, even if i export in wma lossless, Wav or anything, it does this as well. help? EDIT: OHHh I just realized the simple solution, when the export window opens up you see a litte...

Well folks, my bassist is in the market for a nice new bass amp but not quite in the market for stacks/anything more higher end, but he's in this $350ish price range, and after a few shootouts we've come to decide between Ampeg BA115...

Hey there guys, I'm aware this is a very wide open question as it depends on your gear, their gear, the sound your going for etc. But I was wondering if there are any guides anywhere? I tried googling but didn't really get much. I don't really have any specific questions on the whole 'How To...

Hey guys, I was just wondering what would be better to do? A. Keep all your audio projects etc. on the Local Disk and run from there. B. Put all your audio projects etc. on say the D: drive and run them from there. Or is there any difference? I'm not talking about external drives, just...

Hi, I recorded my Dad doing this Irish medley, the performance isn't perfect but tell me what you think. The vocals come in at 4:30, on the last part of the medley ('Raglan Road' by The Dubliners) Anyway, feedback would be appreciated. I used Audacity, a Shure SM57 and Behringer XM8500 to...

Hey is there a guide anywhere for basicly how compression works, and how to work it. I'm aware everythings about personal taste of course, but to start with people (like me) need to know what everything on a compresser will do to the sound and how to use it to your advantage. I searched but...
