Hi, I hope this is the right forum for this. I'm looking to add a very specific type of effect to a raw vocal track I'm working on. I've never really done much with effects, so am unfamiliar with what is (possibly) a very typical effect scenario. Basically, what I'm wanting to do is the kind...

Hullo, I'm looking for a drum pad controller. A little bit about me first (I promise it will be relevant): I'm a drummer myself, and my primary style would most likely be classified as minimalist funk/jazz/fusion - my largest drummer inspirations, and those who I play most similarly to (in...

I know this question gets thrown around a lot, but I have some specific needs which my google-fu isn't really finding answers for. I'm currently in a situation (and will be for at least another year) where most of my mixing will need to be done with headphones. I know this isn't optimal, but...

I love watching studio build diaries. There was one I was following for awhile that I'm searching for, but cannot find. It was probably most actively being posted back in 2010-2012. The details I remember are that it was in someone's basement, the builder put in all hardwood floors, and the...

What are some of your favorite VSTs, VSTis, etc? Not "What is the best [x-instrument] plugin," but more like your favorite just for the hell of it? I'll go first: NESTri (from the NES VST pack) YM2612 VST (If I remember correctly, it was meant for Sega Genesis sounds) Magical 8bit Plug (I...

I have a pair of KM100's, matched (sequential serial #'s), with no capsules. They are in mint condition, have been recorded recently and sound golden. What would be a reasonable value to ask for them?

I don't think what I'm looking for is on this forum, but I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Years ago, I was following two studio builds at the same time - Paul Woodlocks' infamous build, and another guy's who I cannot remember his name. This other person's studio was a...

I'm looking for some advice on how I should layout my meager "studio" room. I have a spare bedroom that I use for my recording. The room is 11'4" by 13'2". I only do recording for myself, and record drums, keyboard, and bass guitar for my personal projects. There are 3 main components I need...

Hey, I'm looking to get a Raxxes UNS-1 Universal shelf (Raxxess UNS-1 Universal Shelf | Sweetwater.com) for 2 items I have: a Symetrix 302 & a Focusrite Scarlet 18i6. I know they will fit, I've already measured everything. The rack enclosure I'm looking to put them in is sloped downwards at...

I have a basic laptop, Reaper 4.2, and a Scarlett 18i6. Anyone feel like helping a brother out on recording basic midi piano tracks, and being to listen to/play back? I set Options > Preferences > Midi Device to the Scarlett, and I know how to arm the track for recording midi, so when I...

Hullo, I'm looking to get some sort of semi-portable (or fully portable) digital recorder that I can record my band's rehearsals in pretty good quality, and then just connect up to a computer and upload wav files. What do you guys think of the little 2-mic stereo recorders (like these)? Had...

Hello, I've been having this conversation over at studio-central: http://studio-central.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=73085 I just wanted to get some extra input. Maybe Fitzpatrick or some of the other bigwigs around here will help a brother out! :) I'm building a desk that will have a...

Hiya folks, I'm selling the 1010 and a couple other items to get myself a few new tools. It's in perfect working condition. It had been used semi-regularly for several years, but not as often as I would have liked, since I didn't have room for my studio from late 2007 until just recently...

I need something to bring my bass guitar directly in. I've never looked at direct boxes before, so don't know much about which brands are solid, and what the price ranges are. On Sweetwater, I see them from 29.95 to 799.00. I'm looking to maybe put $100 - $150 in one right now. Any suggestions?
