i did a quick search and it seems pretty split on whether or not these things are worth it. some reviews i've seen say they aren't made as well as they used to be. so who's used em and what'd you think? and if you weigh in greg, i know you've said you use the 2Bs and broke the 5Bs - is it...

i'm currently running a xenyx 1204 mixer into a delta 44, which allows me to record 4 simultaneous tracks. the xenyx has two buses i can send signal through: the main outs and a subgroup called alt 3-4. i have my 4 mic inputs panned hard left and right, divided between the two outputs in order...

i picked up a pair of behringer C2s about a month ago and i've been having a lot of trouble setting up the gain staging for them. no matter what i've done so far, i can't get em to stop clipping - most likely at the point of conversion from analog to digital (i think). this is my chain: C2s >...

meant to post this is another section, sorry

i was wondering if anyone could explain how to go about putting a VST sampler/replacer to use. i've got a few songs worth of drum tracks that were good takes that have less than stellar tones, so i downloaded some VSTs. i have no midi experience whatsoever and after screwing around with a couple...

i'm looking to make some modest upgrades to my current drum mic setup. i've been using cheapo nady mics and while i'm really not dissatisfied with the results, there's clearly room for improvement. so my pursuit of super budget mics has led me to the k-micros. i've read just about every thread...

my kick batter head broke the other day, so i just ordered a powerstroke III. my beater is 2-sided, plastic and felt. i've been using the felt side (which is a bit stronger than the standard felt ball beaters) and that ate through an unprotected head within 2 months or so. the head was pretty...

as of a couple days ago, some weird noise keeps popping up in my drum tracks. kick: http://plunder.com/3745aa649d snare: http://plunder.com/3c226aa984 sounds like something scratching. or farting into the mic. i ended up recording 3 songs before realizing this was happening. i'm using the...

nevermind, i realized i probably should've posted this in a different section. if any mods / admins can delete this post, go for it

i've been doing some research into gain staging but still feel unclear about it. from what i understand, it's the process of keeping a consistent signal throughout the entire chain - from mic to mixer to daw, through effects and everything, right? so if i'm recording acoustic drums, i'd set the...

i recently got a delta 44, per jeff_d's recommendation, and got it all set up, but one of the connections between the mixer and delta breakout box sounds pretty weak. the other 3 seem to be working fine right now. the weak one looks like this: mixer (xenyx 1204) > generic lo-z mic cable >...

i'm looking for an interface (usb/firewire/whatever) that will separate each input to its own track in the software ie: snare mic gets its own wav file, kick mic gets its own, hanging tom, floor tom, etc, so each one can get its own level, eq, panning and all that i've been using a powered...
