Hey! I recently did a recording session, where it was rather hasty and we realized later we probably should have done a close-mic on the hihat for the song. Would it be crazy to simply overdub a close miked hihat? There's some parts where the hihat is really closed but some washier parts also...

Hey guys! I was hoping someone might be able to help me with an exs24 issues or bug. I have a lot of samples set up as Round Robin groups so that they cycle through three different snare hits. (as per this thread Logic Pro Help ? View topic - EXS24 Alternate Sample-Round Robin Discussion)...

Hi guys. Could somebody please help what key this vocal melody is in? I think it is being sung in the key of F#m. When it goes up in the chorus, it lands on the B. The problem is I think the key of the song with the guitar changes is actually Bm. I think I am singing a disguised harmony. But...

Hey This is probably a real boneheaded question but Can I shorten a song in Logic after its been mastered, to get the intro silence and end just right? As long as the output is set to .wav, 16 bit and normalize is set to off, will the resulting audio file be completely unaffected sonically...

Hey guys. I have another New Order style song with a first mix on it. I'd appreciate feedback before I totally finish it with automation and everything. I think the vocals may be a tad too loud? Anyway, I'd appreciate any thoughts: https://soundcloud.com/thestammer/firstembrace-001/s-UmOLb...

Hey guys. I just did a first pass mix on a song my band recorded ourselves, and I was wondering if anyone would like to give me some feedback. I would really appreciate any advice. Some things that are probably pertinent: Recorded at our practice space. Drums used OTRF and close mic on kick...

Hey guys! Is there a way to give a more "condensor" EQ or feel to the shure 58? Any tips for EQing a 58 for recording usage? Most of the tips ive found online are about EQing for live usage. Anything to stop the "boxiness" of the sound. Or compression settings?

Hey guys. I have a couple of seriously noob, slightly ocd questions about properly setting up monitors and connecting them to an audio interface. I am going from a firepod into two yamaha hs50s using a TRS to XLR Male cable. I am going from the Main CR Output jacks, which gives me a control...

Hey Guys. Im in a lo-fi ish rock band and we are starting to plan some recordings for an album. I am looking into maybe getting a couple pieces of gear before we start. If you guys want to make a couple of suggestions I'd appreciate it. The other option is spending the money on going into a...

Hey. I recently moved into a two bedroom and I'd like to treat my studio room/mixing room a little bit. Is this a decent placement for 10 24x36x2 mineral wool panels? Thanks!

Hi! I let my friend borrow my oktava mk 319 and I just got it back. I noticed after I got it back that the capsule is bent about 45 degrees from the front. Is this normal? I thought that it was supposed to be exactly perpendicular. I don't even know how they could have bent the inside...

Hey! I record demos in my small apartment with garageband and my presonus Firepod. I want to move up to Logic and step up my game a little bit with more microphones. The instruments I most commonly record are: male vocals (In the Paul banks/Interpol range) electric guitar acoustic guitar drum...
