Hi guys, I record in my room/home studio, which happens to be about 10-15 feet away from power lines above my house. When it storms, I seem to get an interference noise that I rarely ever hear, I've checked all cords and controls, unplugged everything and still get the weird signal.. I was...

Hello fellow home recorders. I haven't posted here in a long while, I am currently a first semester Art Institute student. I have learned a lot since my last posts. Everything for these guys I have recorded can be found on Mainstreet Dubsacks | Saint Louis, MO | Indie / Reggae / Ska | Music...

Hey everyone, trying to finance a pro studio project so I'm hoping to rid of some gear for it. What I've got consists of a sterling audio st-59 condenser microphone, I got it new for 350$, I'm hoping to get at least 190$. Its ne'er left the case and box aside from recording. Perfect condition...

Hey guys, Withen the next few days I will be changing my way of tracking or mixing from a tascam portastudio. I was just wondering which DAW you guys thought was the easiest to work with, but still very effective. I've got some experience with audicity, and adobe 1.5 and 3. I've heard great...

Hey guys, I've been recording for some time now on my tascam digital portastudio. I've recently moved into my own apartment so recording drums or band practice always involves getting permission of a friends parents. So what I'm thinking is take the offer for 400$. Raise another hundred and get...

Hey all, I track onto a portastudio and then take the tracks into a DAW. I'm wondering if my Focusrite TrakMaster Pro compressor can help me while mastering in my DAW, Maybe with some peak levels, or squashing drums? Thanks a lot guys, I'm just trying to get my masters sounding better, with what...

Hey guys, I wasent sure where to put this. So I thought I would go ahead and try it here. What I'm trying to do is record video with a basic picture/video camra, and get a decent quality sound. I'm just trying to sing, and play the acoustic guitar, nothing major like a whole band. I've got mics...

Hey Guys, I'm trying to get the best possible sound from my acoustic, What I'm looking at is a a sterling audio st-59 ran through a focusrite platnium trakmaster pro compressor, and an audio-technica m40000S, or a sennheiser e815s. Or an acoustic pick-up, I have the option of an electric...

Hey guys, after a lot of reading and trying to understand the last advice I was given from the fourm. I've recorded a song of my own that I've been working on for a while now. The song is 3 guitar parts (all acoustic, one acting as bass), and vocals. I once again ask for some criticism. I think...

Hey guys, Im recording my acoustic demo and I'm trying to get the guitar tracks louder without getting in the DAW and amplifying them. In master mode is it a good Idea to use compression? How would I go about doing so?

Hey everyone, I got into recording roughly... 5 months ago. I started recording my band, and a few other bands/artists. I'm going to put a good amount of material for everyone to check out and critic if they will. My first one will be my band (I play bass do booking/recording all that). It's a...

Hey guys, I just moved into an appartment and can't do much drum recording till I get an electric kit. I'm wondering where to find a good, cheap drum programing software, Is fruity loops any good for such a thing?

Hi guys, I can't figure out how to import my beats from cd to the portastudio. Ive tried .WMA, .data, .mp3, and .WAV. I've went through the manual trying to figure it out. I just cant seem to figure it out. I want to dub over my beat with vocals. Can anyone help?

Hey guys, up untill now I have never really recorded guitar or bass through an amp and into my recorder (aside from just messing with it never put it on a cD). What I'm wondering is does it give the song more power psysically? If I record through amps will it make it cleaner and not such a RAW...
