Good point on the microphone recording database idea. You're totally right on that one. :) Since you offered, I would love to get some advice on how best to slim down my recording setup. Here's all the gear I own: Gator 8-unit rack case with: Furman Power Conditioner, RME Fireface 800, Furman...

Maybe this belongs in the microphone forum.. I recently reformatted my macbook and hauled out my rack case to make sure all the gear connected to Logic properly and then realized "wow. I haven't even recorded on this thing in 2 years." With that realization, I'm on a mission to cull the...

This is an awesome tutorial! THANKS! :)

For those of you with tube mics and others that require their own power supply.. What exactly do you do with them? Do you tend to keep them in a box and pull them out when needed? I'm wondering if anyone has a solution for having them immediately ready to plug into. Maybe a rack just of the...

Thanks for the help everyone. That BlueBear Mixing 101 site helped educate me a lot in the direction i should be going, so i think I'll hold off posting this in the mastering forum unless i run into any problems. Thanks again for everyone's help!

Yes, the clip was recorded live in one take. I just set the mics up and they did a little acoustic set. I got it while the band was on tour, as they crashed at my apartment for the night. So unfortunately I have no i way of re-tracking it. The song I posted I had already done some tweaking...

Alright, here's the setup. I've got 2 acoustic guitars and a singer with 2 gt44s set up as overheads to capture it. The recording itself turned out decent, but how exactly do I mix (well, there's nothing to "mix" really), or "polish" the track (2 tracks, Left and Right)? Does anyone have any...

I've had the same experience. A few months ago I tried to get some technical support for my Event Ezbus. I could not get in contact with them at all. I e-mailed both tech support and sales several times and tried all the different phone numbers over a 2-week period. NOTHING. So I have no...

It was actually called the "Electro Lounge" acoustic. You can find exact specs for it here: http://www.fender.com/products/search.php?partno=0958800 I'm sure a quick google search will bring up more information and/or pictures if you so desire.

So a thought occured to me the other day, and I thought someone could confirm it for me. I'm working on a mix right now and monitoring through computer speakers, which is the best I can do for now until I get monitors and I prefer them over headphones. I'm monitoring through the soundcard...

hmm.. good question. I just assumed they did. Even if they did I have a friend that goes up there on the weekends. I'm thinking I can order it online for store pick-up and he can bring it back for me.

Wish I could help you. I bought a Co9 and a Co4 years ago at GC when they were dirt cheap during a sale. I've used the Co9 primarily as a live mic for gigs and stuff. Never tried using it the studio. If I manage to free up some recording time this weekend I'll give it a shot and let you know...

I actually just got back from a Home Depot run and they're not exactly the same case. They're made by a different company (Husky) and about 1" less in width. They also don't come with foam, just the organizers in the base and the tool organizer thing. Oh well, too bad the only Lowes near me...

If you don't have a Lowes in your general vicinity, it looks like Home Depot carries them as well at $19.97. Home Depot

I'm certainly no expert on acoustic guitars and may experience is limited. I only own one other acoustic guitar, and it's an Ashland. (My very first guitar, made by the same company that made baseball gloves in the early 90s). I do however have experience playing other instruments. The lines...
