Hey! What could I do better? Be honest! Recorded live with 4 mics in my modest bedroom studio using Live 8. No plugins until mastering! All EQ and compression done by routing through hardware. Not much done in the way of mastering, not my element. Thanks! Edit. Ugh, sorry. Here it is...

Hey! Looking to expand my range of preamp sounds on a relatively limited budget. I currently own a Toft ATC-2, and Focusrite Platinum Trak Master and Voice Master. Between these two, the TL us about $130 more expensive. Would I be getting my money's worth? The apparent advantage of the TL to...

Hello! I've been running the M-Audio Delta 66 card for a while, and recently learned it was possible to expand the setup with another Delta card, so I purchased the Delta 1010 card and breakout box. I am aware they are connected by spdif. When I opened my computer to install the 1010...

Hello! I've been trying to get away from all the plugins and use the eq's and compressors on my channel strips for mixing. I know I'm doing some things wrong. I'm wondering how to go about doing them right! Firstly, does this process even make sense? I've got an M Audio Omni I/O, Toft ATC2, a...

Hello! I have an M Audio Omni I/O soundcard interface, and it's a good little dude, but it's got some serious limitations. It has two mic preamps and two line level auxiliary ins. I use four mics to record drums. I have better outboard preamps than the built in ones, but I know better than to...

Hello! Just looking for some feedback on the sound of my band's first full-length album. This was recorded entirely live using 4 microphones to ADAT tape in our practice space. Mixed from there on a cheap old Peavey board. To account for the bleed, room and equipment constraints, we took many...

Looking for feedback and criticism on the production of our first full-length album. Engineered it myself live in our practice space with minimal resources -- 4 mics to ADAT. Cursory, minimal mixing through an old Peavey mixer. Get the **** out of My Pool -- New Wave Hookers New Wave Hookers...

Hello! I recently picked up a Mackie Micro 1202 for recording to ADAT. Decent little mixer for super cheap, but since I've had good results modding instruments, it seems like it'd be pretty easy and cheap to improve it. First, I'd like to give at least four channels pre-eq and fade direct outs...

Hello! Having worked in music shops the past few years, I've come to realize that much of the time, there are instruments made by lesser-known smaller builders that have more to offer than big name brands both in terms of quality and value. Having just started recording, I'm only familiar with...

Hello! I just recorded my band's first EP, which also happens to be my first time recording. I'm just looking for some feedback on the recording and mixing, if you'd be so kind! I'm new to the forum so it won't let me post URL's. The address is 'newwavehookers.bandcamp.com.' It's obviously...

Hello! This is my first time recording using an analog mixer and ADAT, and there are a few questions I would greatly appreciate some help with. I've only ever recorded through an interface into a DAW before, which I know is probably quite a bit more practical, but this time my band thought it...

Hello! This is my first post here, and I apologize if it's overly generic or lengthy. I'm sure many similar threads exist, but it'd be really cool to get more specific information. I've recently moved, and my home recording studio, band rehearsal space, and bedroom have all been combined into...
