    Hip Hop Drum Recording

    Hey guys, I'm working on a hip hop project with a few friends right now and I'd like to start moving away from programmed drums and move to real drum recordings, since everything else record is done with real instruments. However I've tried it a few times with our drummer and it just doesn't...

    advise on latest mix (reggae/rock)

    I've been working on this mix of a band I've been recording lately (not my band), and its not the final but I'd like to get your opinion to see if i'm taking it in the right direction. It's gonna end up getting professionally mastered so keep that in mind. Thanks!

    Ideas for making my space "nicer" looking?

    I'm definitely lucky to even have a space this size. My mom let me take over the entire basement over the past few years. And yes unfortunately that is foam, I wasn't as educated on proper acoustic treatment when I bought it. However I do have the drum room with good acoustic insulation and it...

    Ideas for making my space "nicer" looking?

    Hey guys, So lately I've been thinking about how my studio doesn't really even look like a studio to me at least. Even when its neat and organized it looks more like a hang out basement. In the pics I have a pool table there but i'm getting rid of that. So that's step one. The carpet is new and...

    really need help on this one :/

    http://soundcloud.com/tbuck/should-i-be-dead-mix The toughest part of this mix is I never listen to this type of music, so it's kind of hard for me to get a sound that they like. At first I didn't want to trigger any drums but i ended up triggering the kick and snare. This sounds pretty decent...

    kick mic question

    If it sounds good man by all means do it. Experiment and see what sounds best. Typically the closer the mic is to the beater the more click. I put it close when recording rock or metal type bands but for my reggae band i put it halfway in the hole.

    FW-1082 and HS10w??

    Yeah, you just run your monitors thru the sub. You run the full range mix to the sub and it has L & R out with a crossover that you can set to the main speakers.

    My first serious paying band I've recorded

    Hey, thanks for the quick response! I've been trying to work with the snare, and it seems even if i turn it up it still is kind of in the background... and the hi hat bleed from the mic brings the high hat up! any tips?

    Profire 2626 Users?

    Yeah, all the inputs on the back are quarter inch and xlr combo inputs so i'm assuming they act the same as the first 2 on the back which I use.

    Profire 2626 Users?

    Yep, I use a Presonus Studio Channel with mine. I just go balanced quarter inch into input 1, and it totally bypasses the internal mic pre.

    Tracks go off time slightly

    I am trying to mix a track in Sonar 8.5 that I made in Reason 5.0 and Fl Studio. The problem is that when I export the tracks from Reason they all match up. The Fl ones do too. But, in sonar, when I try to play all the tracks together they sound fine at first but fall off time slightly and alot...

    Thank for the responses, I really appreciate it. I took your advice and this is what I have now... hopefully it's a little better. oh and by the way, the band thinks its decent but the bass player thinks it sucks, and wants to mix it with me :/. http://www.mediafire.com/?h2qz1pd5apnc1b2

    too much in the ~4k range?

    Ever since I "upgraded" from my m-audio bx5a's to the bx8a deluxe's I have thought they were wayy to harsh. as a result, I've made alot of my mixes lately very dull sounding. I didn't have this problem with the bx5a's. Could it be my room (which I admit is poorly treated, only with a pack of...

    having trouble with this mix

    I recorded this high school band about a month ago and I've been trying to get a decent sounding mix for a while now. Unfortunately the drummer didn't know/doesn't know how to tune his drums so that was a problem already. However, I'm trying my best to work with this. If you have any tips that'd...
