    The Sun Lies - alternative pop rock

    Is this it? If so, isn't it already telling me the correction value here? Again, if so, HOLY CRAP no wondering I have to do so much adjusting all the time. Is that 31ms it? I don't see where I can adjust that via settings. Looks like I'd have to adjust the files over 31ms, no?

    Autofilter Plugin

    I use Studio One 4 Pro (upgraded from 3 a few months ago). It has always come with a stock autofilter plugin. Useful to me are the presets, which I then tweak to my liking. Even if you've heard my music, you may not be able to spot when I use these things, but it's mostly on top of synths or...

    The Sun Lies - alternative pop rock

    Second time around with this song. Wanted to redo it with some new gear that I got, including my new(ish) monitors, which I feel have helped my mixing. Thanks to JohnnyAmato for getting me set up with the new guitar sound - GNX3000. I'm really liking this thing and wish I got into it earlier...

    Superior Drummer Crashing

    I have my SD files on a WD Elements external drive. When using the SD plugin within my project, it takes a few seconds for a new kit piece to load. If I wait until the progress loading bar, top right of the plugin, fills up, I'm good to go. But I occasionally forget and "hit" the newly selected...

    How is it Possible that...

    ...18 year old technology sounds more realistic than today's amp sims? I bought a GNX3000 recently, made by DIGITECH. It not only contains effects and crazy sounds (the main reason I wanted these things when I was younger), but, astonishingly, it contains amp and cab emulations. Yes - you can...

    Andrew Scheps on Recording Guitars and Bass

    Just wanted to post this here: YouTube Definitely someone reputable. Opine away, if you'd like... ---------- Update ---------- Forgot to mention - no, it's not Kermit the Frog, promise. Well, maybe.

    What's Up?

    As I prepare to listen to yet another mix of my current project (I'm reaching as many mixdowns as I have tracks on the tune), I'm wondering what everyone is working on at the moment? Home project? Studio work? Something cool, or not so cool, that's paid? Song writing/arrangement for something...

    Superior Drummer and Inverting Phase

    Well, the button says, specifically, "invert phase". And yeah, it's on or off. There's a subtle difference when changed. I'm also looking for the same deal with the OH mics...which sounds better and whatnot. Again though, with a vst program like SD, you would think everything is optimized at...

    Superior Drummer and Inverting Phase

    On my current project, I have a bit of the ambient Mid mic in the drum mix (Superior Drummer). I have it compressed pretty hard, about 6-7db GR, but it is rather low in the mix. When I mute it, it's sort of obvious that something is missing that was there before. Now, there is an"invert phase"...

    Recommend a synth for warm pads?

    Looking to add more warm pad synths to my arsenal. Not interested in leads really, just ambient, warm pads. Hopefully something that's not too CPU heavy. Currently using stock Studio One programs Presence and Mojito. What are you guys using? Any recommendations?

    Bass cabs vs DI

    Been seeing some videos on bypassing the bass cabinet and going full DI, with other effects of course. Since i'm using Amplitube, and therefore a virtual cabinet, I'm curious if this is considered the same route. I mean, the mic placement and tone concepts for recording real guitars is emulated...

    Studio One 4

    No PreSonus brand forum, so thought I'd post this here. Anyone pick this up yet? I found a link to upgrade from any Pro version (I'm running V2) for $149. I'm trying to find out if their stock plugs have been rebuilt. I'm a big user and fan of V2's Pro EQ, but I wonder if they redo those plugins...

    Midnight - alternative pop rock

    Well, here's my third mix on monitors. I think they're helping a lot and it seems easier to do many things, including balancing levels, EQ, and compression. Everything seems more rounded, to me, and balanced. I really like having these speakers to mix through and although I wish I had them...

    Black Mirrors - alternative

    Second mix with monitors, think I'm getting more used to them. I listened to the SC link and I think I hear a little cymbal wash that isn't really in the original .wav. Oh well. I'd appreciate any thoughts on the mix. https://soundcloud.com/andrushkiwt/black-mirrors-1 Everywhere you look...

    Line/Instrument

    Well, I've been having some trouble getting a good sound out of my guitar recordings on my current project. I've been at it for a few days, wondering why I can't mix these guitars so well this time around. Didn't know if it was in my head or if I've simply heard it too many times now. The...

    Time for a new mic?

    If you guys heard my music, then all the better. I have new monitors, which I'm loving, and I think the weak link now is my $99 condenser mic. I believe I've made good use of it, and I usually get comp's on my vocals, but I wonder if a better mic would make it all the better. I'm thinking...

    Crashing - alternative pop/rock

    Well, my first mix on monitors is in the books. Thanks to you guys for helping me out along the way, hopefully there's good mixes to come! I think my first result is pretty well-balanced, but I would like to know what you all think. The monitors most apparent result, in my opinion, is the...

    let me see your studio!

    Just picked up HS8's, after years of using headphones. Moved desk from window on right to center of that wall. Anything stand out as needing adjustment? Good to go? No treatment or anything yet, so, there's that.

    Alright, last chance to stop me...

    ... before I go pick up some HS8's from Guitar Center. I've been using headphones (sennHD280) since I started mixing my own music, about 4 years ago. Although I could probably make incremental steps toward a better mix with the headphones, I feel like the pace is going to be very slow and level...

    DAW Timing

    I've noticed that my DAW is writing/recording audio from the interface a touch off real-time. As I play along with the written drums, I stress the timing in particular parts, then I notice, while replaying it and analyzing the waveform, that it's slightly off. If I move the entire track to the...
