    Indie Rock, AT 4047 on OH & Vocal

    Hey thanks dude! What you hear in the vocals is the scratch track in the background. We tracked without headphones or anything and i sang into a PA, so that bled into the OHs (a bit too much). In the third verse it gets really bad because i am singing something different... Mike

    Indie Rock, AT 4047 on OH & Vocal

    Here's a track I just finished. My band recorded the intrumental tracks live off the floor in a local art space where we were rehearsing, and I overdubbed the vocals. http://www.gearslutz.com/board/showthread.php?t=114670#post1182613 I used AT 4047s on OHs, a 4047 on the vocal, 57s on snare...

    Need help building soundproof studio for husband

    Yes, you are gonna need a lot of mass in order to stop the bass frequencies from escaping. "Soundproofing" is very hard and expensive. Check out John Sayers' forum for more advice in this regard.

    Bare insulation as room treatment?

    Thank you kindly for your reply. At this point I am not too concerned with isolation, because that is a pretty big boondoggle. The neighbours are always going to be able to hear the drums.... Likewise, it isn't too loud outside, so I am not overly worried about sound coming in. I record...

    Bare insulation as room treatment?

    Would it be too dry, do you think? I've been thinking about this, and I thought that maybe I would need to put some spaced wood panels or something over the insulation in certain spots to liven up the sound. The gable ceiling wouldn't be insulated, either, so that would make the room a bit more...

    Bare insulation as room treatment?

    I am turning an old garage into a little studio space. The space is probably about 25 x 15 with a gable ceiling. Right now the room is far too wet, so I am considering different options for broadband room treatment. I know, of course, of the use of rigid fiberglass insulation for this purpose...

    Zuma-era Neil Young-ish song

    This one is a driving song that I've been working on for the past few days. It's called "Black Ribbon". I played all the instruments and engineered it myself. I used all sub-$100 mics. http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=4959&a lid=-1 Cheers, Mike

    Epic Synth-Folk

    I used all sub $130 (Can) mics for this recording -- the SP B1, MXL 990, and 57. I finished it yesterday. I wrote it in the morning and then recorded it in the afternoon in my basement. I play all the instruments. It's called "Don't Miss Your Ship"...
