So my question is basically do they sound different? I know the 604 you have the switch. Which is the better mic? At this moment in time I want to try to record vocals and acoustic at the same time. What would be the best way to go with this method? I have a sterling audio st55. I'm looking to...

Hello all. First of all i always notice sometimes a noise issue with my recordings. Especially right in the beginning before i hear the guitar come in.. When everything else is playing i cant really notice it. I guess im asking how to get rid of noise before you hear the tracks come in to get...

Hey Everyone, So here is my situation.. Everytime I record I have to really turn crank my firebox to get a good level..(yellow peak). When i play back the recording that i did it doesnt sound quiet. You can hear alot of gain from firebox maybe? When i hear others people recordings i never hear...

I can never layer guitars together on time or in synch. Its always off by a second. Is there something i can do to fix this problem? I'm using Cubase SX 2 and just using an old soundblaster card. thanks alot.

Hello, everyone. For some reason when i layer guitars one on top of another they never come out in the same timing. Keep in mind i never set the tempo i guess could that be? I'm kinda of new at recording so i want to know what would be the easiest way to make sure everything will sync up...

I love using capos, but sometimes picking the right key or fret can be frustrating. I can range pretty good with my voice so i can always pick a few different keys. Some people say pick what sounds the best....however some parts of song sounds good and the other part might sound better on a...
