    Mac users: Logic Pro or Reaper?

    My first serious DAW was Logic, which I used until it was no longer supported on PC. I then switched to Reaper. Although I became quite fluent in Logic, I was never that comfortable with it. Switching to Reaper was like coming home. It did things the way my brain expected them to be done. Logic...

    Sonic quality for vocal recording of home setup vs studio

    I think there is a difference between dead and dry. Recording in a confined closet alongside materials that would suck the highs out creates dead.

    Setup to record classical violin

    The violin in this track was recorded using an Audio Technica 853, which is more usually used to capture choirs and the like. It was positioned about half a metre above the violin in a fairly dry room. Reverb was added after the event. (Violin starts about 20 seconds in)

    Introduction: My struggle with home recording

    No it's not. You started the thread, but it is now in the public arena of HR, and it will follow the meandering and hazardous path that other threads follow. Sometimes responses will be relevant. Other times they won't. You have no control over that. However I do understand that someone may...

    Song - Kicking out the days

    I think the mix might be ok. However, I'm hearing a very peaky C booming, and it takes over the mix

    Introduction: My struggle with home recording

    I don't know what you hear in your head therefore I don't know how the recorde material differs from what your expectations are, and furthermore, I can't suggest anything constructive to deal with that expectation gap. And, to make matters worse, nor can anyone else, as, indeed, you have...

    Audacity multi-tracking question

    That's been the dominant way I've been operating for the last two years. I've been multitracking with material sent to me by others, and it has been working well. However, what helps is that we all use Reaper.

    Pro Tools and .wav files ?

    I can see no reason why PT won't load WAV files, nor why a PT user would refuse to accept them. However, it is possible that he may be using a version of PT that can't accept anything better than,say, 16 bit. Maybe it's a problem like that?

    Tired of tangled cables?

    As I said above somewhere, velcro for me. And not cable ties. They are single-use, and take too much time to put on and take off.

    Radio Microphones

    The neat thing about the Rode Wireless Go is that you can plug a different mike (e.g. a lavalier) into the transmitter if you need it to be unobtrusive.

    Radio Microphones

    I've got a Rode wireless Go. It is great. Good mike, low noise, effective operation. It is good for situations where you need a mike close to the action but need it to be unobtrusive, e.g. in theatre where you need to capture a bit of audio from a particular location on stage.

    How to vocoder easy way?

    Reaper has a vocoder; ReaVocode. It is a bit fiddly to use, and I have to seem to re-learn it each time I use it.

    Soft rock, female vocal

    I agree with others in that the mix has improved. My original concerns still remain: I think the song could finish at 2.37 on 'gone' without losing impact. The distorted lead is a bit random and could easily go.
