Hey all! Not sure anyone remembers me, I used to have a Lorax avatar (that went away at some point). I was pretty active from 2007 to 2014, then I posted like once per year for the next couple of years, then was completely absent since 2017. I guess I just got bored and wasn't learning anything...

Hey guys, I just bought an Re20 on ebay and it came in yesterday, pretty excited for it. I immediately put it on my bass drum to test it out. Then I decided.....you know, I haven't changed my recording setup for drums in, well, since I first built up my studio 10 years ago. I always have...

Hey HR, for some reason I don't visit you guys anymore. I've just shifted my focus back to the musician aspect of my many hats, which I guess is the important thing here, right? Anyway, I'm looking for a means of mobile recording. My Firestudio 26x26 still works great after 10 years, but its...

Hey, I haven't really posted here in over a year. Kind of got bored and I haven't really gotten new gear in years (think I bought my last mic in 2012, and my last plug-in around that time). Last big project I did was in 2013 when I tracked drums and electric guitar in my home studio, but doing...

Been a month or two since I've hung out here, so hello guys! Its been a long time since I've gotten any recording gear, but I don't think its GAS affecting me. Since I first had my studio in 2007 I've used a pair of Rode NT2a's for my drum overheads and general utility mics, and they are...

I have made a basic splitter before, taking a single 1/4" input into two simultaneous 1/4" outputs that works well. Now I want to make one where I can switch between single outputs. At band rehearsal yesterday, my keyboardist decided to start using more organ, and we ran it through one of my...

I know this is mostly a dead sub-forum, but figured this was an appropriate place for this! I've been meaning to make some sort of video for my musical, but didn't know quite what to do. Even though the music is all recorded, as far as vocals go I really only have one finished song (two if you...

Being a drummer, for the past several years I've occasionally recorded videos of myself doing different drumming things. I mix the drums exactly as I typically do in a typical song setting, but things tend to sound a bit thin. Like, it pops out at you like I want it to in a song, but it...

I'm not talking about those modern high-tension drum corps snares that are super high pitched. I'm talking about those old style drums that were on slings that were really, really deep in pitch. I bought one today, and recorded some tracks for my album. I didn't really put much thought into...

So one of my bands has just release an album, released on CDBaby, Amazon, itunes, yada yada (link in sig), and we were approached by a UK magazine to do a review. Cool, that's awesome. Then the rep approached us with offering things like an interview and a track or two to appear in their CD...

Little backstory before I get to my main issue: I've been needing to upgrade my recording computer. Especially for the past year, but I've been wanting to upgrade it since 2008. I built it in early 2007 on the cheap with the intention of upgrading it later, but aside from doubling the Ram, by...

So obviously I know how to use automation in Reaper, but there is an aspect of automation that I wonder if its possible. So I have a song that uses a single synth. The song is very sectional, so the synth has a completely different sound in each section. I've managed to find the sound I want...

Hey, so I made a post a few weeks back, I'll elaborate here again. I've been working on a 21-song album, I started the process at my home studio but I've been recording strings and pianos at a commercial studio. I use Reaper, they use PT 11. I want to be able to do edits and proto-mixes at...

So in my current project I am recording both at my home studio and a professional studio as well. The problem is that I use Reaper, and the pro studio uses Pro Tools. This isn't a problem on my end. Its easy for me to export the tracks, put them on an external drive, go over there, and import...

Hey guys, so these were not recorded in my studio, nor mixed in my studio. I've joined a brand new band, and we're still adding members. So we decided to record single takes of some of our WIP songs to show prospective members our sound. These aren't meant to be "pro" recordings or official...

So I'm in the process of recording my musical, and I had booked a pro studio to record the stuff that I don't have the ability to record (things like strings, for example, you need a big ass room for that and my garage wouldn't really cut it). One of those things is an organ, since this studio...

So I'm a lazy SOB and I was thinking on ways I can do ADT. Traditionally I just do a quick single delay with a slight pitch shift on the delayed signal. I had a cool thought the other day and I'm not sure if anybody has actually made this, and if someone has, is it freeware? Basically a...

With my home studio at my parents' house, and the fact I moved out two years ago, I have to make the 20 minute drive if I want to record stuff. Which is fine, but sometimes I just want to lay down some basic demo stuff and the drive ain't really worth it for that. I have a Zoom H4n, but I never...

With my home studio at my parents' house, and the fact I moved out two years ago, I have to make the 20 minute drive if I want to record stuff. Which is fine, but sometimes I just want to lay down some basic demo stuff and the drive ain't really worth it for that. So I'm setting up a home away...

Not sure this is the right forum, but seemed the biggest fit. I am in the middle of working on a production that isn't the traditional 'band' production, where the agreement is we just divide the earnings equally among us. This is a production where all the musicians are paid up front. Now I...
