    Small studio rebuild

    So we moved out of our previous studio in december, and we're working with the local YMCA at the moment, who have a recording studio they're looking to rebuild. Currently it's just one small room with an abundance of 2" rockwool acoustic treatment and two poorly constructedbroadband absorbers in...

    Playing sound through a piezo pickup

    That's what I was thinking. The pickups are on the inside on the guitar, under the saddle, my thinking was exciting the guitar where the strings meet the body would give a...an impulse response more true to how the guitar responds to being played. I've been messing around with knocking the...

    Playing sound through a piezo pickup

    Right, I have absolutely no idea where to post this but this seems like the place I'm most likely to get useful results. I want to make an impulse response of my acoustic guitar's body. I have K&K pure mini's in it. No electronics, just piezo pickups connected straight to an output jack. I've...

    Isolation on a pair of Fig-8's, AC guitars and vocal

    Can't download/listen on my phone, but fig 8s are my favourite way of recording people who insist on playing singing at the same time. Especially if I don't trust that they can balance their vocals with the guitar themselves. Positioning can be...fiddly, but the separation is awesome.

    Alternate speaker enclosure

    I was thinking something like the drivers from a set of Behringer B3031s or something put into a floor standing unit. Completely different enclosure, although I guess the bottom of it could be sealed midway up or higher? I know it'd sound different, but would it be likely completely unusable or...

    Alternate speaker enclosure

    How much does a set of monitors enclosure impact their sound? If I were to take the drivers out and put them in something else, would it completely ruin them?

    How to hook up 2 separate types of Mics to one program (pro tools, audacity, etc.) ?

    ASIO4all merges all of a systems WDM inputs into a single ASIO device. Basically, it reads every input device and presents itself to the software as a single ASIO driver with multiple inputs. (To my understanding)

    ASIO4all should be able to do it, I think.

    Condenser Mic Newb, what is this sound?

    Ooh! Ooh! Is it a record player? :D j/k Does wiggling the cables affect it at all? Edit: I had a similar problem with one of the first C414s I got. Turned out one of the tabs connecting the capsule to the rest of the mic was loose. Just squeezed it a bit tighter and all was fine.

    Strange screeching noises, why?? DA conversion in vs out the box??

    It works from the ADAT out because the adat out is optical. The units are completely isolated from eachother electronicly

    Soundproof door

    Didn't think of that. Most of the frames in the house couldn't do that, but this one does have room for a door to be mounted on either/both sides. A door sized sheet of lead ~25kg/m2 looks to be ~£100-£150, which I would imagine would be bloody wonderful. If I could get one door to do what I...

    Soundproof door

    So I've just moved into a new house, and I'm looking to soundproof a room. The room is in an extension, so the original thick outside wall is between me and the rest of the house, but naturally the door is the weak point. I've been looking into soundproof doors, but nowhere seems to be quoting...
