Okay, through the university I am going to I have signed up for an audio production class starting january 14th, when I am in this class I am able to sign up for free studio time whenever I want as long as another student doesn't have it reserved, and the students at my particular university...

Folkie-- China white was a synthetic heroin on the market in the 80s, it was mostly fentanyl and fentanyl analogue based, The devils dandruff is an old timer term for cocaine, heard it many times. This is very clearly a drug song so if that was suppose to be subtle or veiled, it is not. I don't...

Rhymes so sick they call all of my shit the bird flu didnt think a verse could make me puke untill I heard you your rhymes sicken me, wearin suits made in italy, silk lining hand stitched by a taylor made for fittin me---sincerely--- accept responsibility, your lyrically unacceptable...

Thank you for all of your input, I actually ended up picking up an ART VLA ii compressor and am about to get a BLA auteur or UA610 preamp. But not before I practiced my act for a good few more months...2:1 only eliminates 50% of the dbs above the chosen threshold not eliminates 50% of the total...

Great article

Check out the KRK line. . . they get pretty good reviews and are cheap as they get just about. The VXT line especially is getting great reviews, if you have a small room you can get a pair of 4's used for like 300 a pair.....the 6's are where its at though, especially for hip hop you want some...

Okay I can help a little bit, most if not all mainstream hiphop is compressed MORE THAN ONCE. Make sure the beat your spitting over is tracked out, not just an mp3 with a beat on it, surefire way to get crap....Another surefire way to get crap is to record/mix in an untreated room. Read up on...

You guys don't even listen to your vocals dry before you start mixing, compressing, eq'ing etc?? Isn't the dry vocal what you listen to for a yardstick on what changes you need to make in the mix?!? I actually keep all my vocals dry on anything "important" because I will want a mix engineer to...

^ Coulnd't have said it better, I strongly believe the artist should not be the one to mix the song (but should have lots of input on what happens)...its just too hard to judge you own voice etc etc...... And I think the Mixer probably should not be the masterer, you want two different sets of...

http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=629204 I have no affiliation with this dude whatsoever, Id actually prefer if you didn't buy from him since I do but I gotta help a buddy out..... he's just a random cat I came across on soundclick, I find his beats super dope for a measly 35...

The NTK is a little harsh and sibilant, the K2 definitely has a nicer high end presence.

Wow there's great ME's literally shaking E-Sticks at you as they give outstanding free advice, but still some of you are trashing them for it, thats some haterism, and i hate the word hater..lmao. anyways I just happen to have been researching the best prices on.....oh how do I say...

yea, you definitely got the basic idea right. I can personally vouch for the EMU 404 usb 2.0, thats the interface I use, have ran it damn near daily for about 8 months and it works great, although the headphone jack stopped working for awhile once (pretty bad problem)......It comes with pretty...

Truth is you really NEED to get the beat tracked out. However, I have seen many many tips to mixing over MP3 / stereo beats. Google vocals over stereo beat, and mixing vocals over MP3 beat etc etc....It's all personal oppinions buried in various forum archives though. still some good stuff to...

Great Replies!! Massive Mastering, Thank you that article/rant of yours was exactly what I was wondering. southside -- Haha basically like any internet service, dodgy market at best, that whole hiding behind a computer thing really works (bastards). Thats really good advice about the...

stackings not really an insider secret as much as something everybody does / has done / prefers or does not prefer / works with a certain song/artist but not at all for another. Thing about stacking is the artist has to be able to nail each take in perfect time and almost perfect pitch or else...

Hey, I have seen alot of websites that offer professional mixing engineers to mix your track for whatever $$ and websites offering to master your track for whatever $$......My question is are these websites a joke in general or are they legit...or is it case by case? Some of them appear to...

But any artist with they're salt should be able to exactly match the vocal, and any producer worth their weight should be able to punch in with no audible volume difference. What I do is record 4 takes of the verse right in a row, choose the best 2 and comp em, than use the other two as...

Ok, I attend a University, this university has a beautiful studio in the A/V department. If I can get into this class, the final project is assigned in a way as such that I could go and use this beautiful studio whenever I want as long as I sign in. (and pretend Im working on my project, which...
