Ok so I am completely new to EQing. I don't really know much about it, and I need some help. I have a live recording that is very bassy and kind of muddy. It was recorded with AKG 414 ULS microphones in a college theatre. So with Adobe Audition, I used the Parametric Equalizer to boost the...

If there is something directly behind a large diaphragm microphone (AKG 414) when recording using a cardioid pattern, will the sound quality be affected? Does the back need to be uncovered?? Thanks

So I'm about ready to buy an M-Audio ProFire 610 (http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=products.main&ID=57e1a41fa1cf5474fc9e3b31383ca0ca ) which I will mainly use for recording vocals into my computer, and occasionally my synthesizer. I'm wondering if there are any comparable quality products...

Can someone tell me a good, easy way to separate tracks from a large audio file? I make mainly live recordings, and I've been using a cut/paste "technique" in Adobe Audition to separate the tracks without silence or a pop. However this takes a while. Is there anything available that can make...

Does anyone know if there is such a thing as a cloth that could be completely wrapped over a microphone without affecting the sound? It doesn't need to provide any type of wind/breath filtering. It just needs to let as much sound through as possible. Kinda like the cloth in front of speakers I...

Ok so a friend of mine has been asking me a lot of questions, and I don't know exactly how to put the answers into words....and it's hard to describe the various sounds. His questions: Why dont you want a microphone to replicate as nearly as possible in the recording what is heard...

So one of my AKG 414's is a bit busted. The metal band that goes around the top and sides of the grilles broke where it attaches to the body of the mic, and one of the grilles got warped too. Mic still sounds fine so I don't think there's any other damage. I bought the mic used, so no warranty...

Does anyone have experience with the DPA compact microphones? http://www.dpamicrophones.com/module.php?MID=101&itemid=4022&PID=&function=pdescription Would they be suited for stealthy live bootlegging, or are they not good for live situations? Thanks

I'm basically wondering what devices the professionals use to record audio into their computers. I currently use a Fast Track Pro, but I know this is not at all a high quality device. What type of setup provides the best sound for this? Do you need a mic pre-amp that is separate from the...

So I'm looking to expand my microphone collection. Right now I have two AKG 414 ULS microphones, but I mainly use them for live taping. I would love some recommendations on good studio microphones for a young sounding, high tenor, male voice. Price is NOT an issue...so whatever any of you think...

Ok...what I'm looking for is a plugin that will work with Adobe Audition, that will easily decode a STEREO recording made using the Mid-Side technique, into the proper audio file? To be more specific, I record the Mid mic to the left channel of the file and the Side mic to the right. I just...

So I recently bought two AKG 414's, and I was wondering what the best way to set them up using the XY technique is? I only have experience with the small cylinder shaped condensers, so I'm unsure of how these mics are supposed to look in this technique. Does anyone have pics of them, or similar...

Can anyone recommend a good shockmount for the 414 ULS mics? The one made by AKG is too expensive for me right now...are there any other options at a lower price? Thanks
