Hi, i'm putting out a 12" single which contains the main single, two remixes of it and another track. One of the remixes is using music which is not my original composition which I have reproduced, i.e. re-performed and not sampled, but I have my song over it. I have kept my vocal tracks but...

Hi, I’m trying to make a .wav file from a song which is on DAT and wondering if I’m going about it the right way? I have ProTools LE and was thinking about running the audio (Land R) out from my DAT player into two separate track in ProTools (through Digi 001) an then recording the .wav file...

Can anyone please recommend what software I need to get to be able to do mastering myself in my studio please? Thanks

I am about to agree a selling price for a 12" vinyl single, R&B genre. Does anyone know what the going rate is please? I am based in London, England.

I'm really praying someone out there understands how to use it. The guys in the shop don't even get it, the manual is just so unhelpful and cryptic. There seems nowhere else to turn to. What I want to do is use one midi channel for a drum kit and use another midi channel for a polyphonic lead...

I've just done this song where the hook borrows from the melody of the verse on someone's song. The words are entirely different, so is the melody of my song's verses. The similarity is that I have used the melody from that artiste's verse as my hook. Do I need copyright clearance for this, if...

For anyone who is familiar with the R&B singing groups SWV, Destiny's Child and the new singer called Jojo, do you know what effects they use on their vocals? I know it sounds mechanical and unhuman, but would like to know what those effects are that give them that sound.

I am trying to merge two bass sounds and I am getting phase canecellation at times. Can I fix this in anyway?

Can anyone help me please. I am applying AT as an insert on a track and then bussing the processed vocals on to a fresh track, thereby still having the original one intact. I am using the graphical method of correction. The problem I am having is that when I correct the pitch it's going well but...

Can someone please remind me how to do this? I have a Y cable and want to patch an outboard effects into my vocals path. I know one end goes into the insert on the mixer but can't remember what happens with the other two.

Help! I am in the process of mixing now and intended to use Autotune 4 in audiosuite. I have selected the portion of the wave file I want to correct and have opened autotune via Audiosuite menu and not as an insert. However, the wave is unaffected and I can not see the 'preview' or 'process'...

Hi, I have just purchased Autotune 4 and intend to do my pitch corrections using Audiosuite rather than real time so as to avoid system limitation problems. My problem is that the Autotune manual contains no information about using Audiosuite. Can anyone please explain to me how to go about...

Hi, I was just in the process of miking and recording from my 12 x 12 guitar amp when I noticed for the first time that there was humming anytime I turned up the treble, pre and post knobs, when they are low the hum isn't there but then the amp is not loud enough. Anyone know if there is...

Hi, I use a Neumann TLM 103 for vocals and want to record some bass and rhythm/guitar by miking the amp. I hear a Shure SM57 is good for this purpose, but what I was wondering was whether my Neumann could give me equally good results or is it not suitable for that type of work?

Hi, I have a Heil Talkbox which I want to use on a few tracks (for keyboards, not guitar). Anyone know if there is a way I can connect and record without using an amphead? Can I use a domestic amp for example, or a mixer? I am tempted to try but I have been warned that I could blow the Talbox or...
