    Large or small diaphram omni's

    I'm trying to make up my mind between a pair of SP C-4 or pair of M-Audio Solaris' I don't currently have any omni mics which either of these would give me. The Solaris would also give me the benefit of figure-8. I heard the recording Massive Master did with a pair of these and was pretty...

    New song from Ralston.

    Here's another song from the demo I'm recording for a band called Ralston. It's called Surface This is the first mix, I think the bass guitar needs to come down a little. See what you think. The first one is still up too (Adapasier) with some mix changes.

    New mic purchase, Groove Tubes GT55

    I just bought one of these for $179. Seems like a pretty good deal. I hope it's as nice a mic as people around here a saying. I only have 1 other LD condensor and it's a MXL 1500. This will no doubt be the best mic I own. Just thought I'd share that with y'all.

    Update on Chaos tune

    I finished tracking. There is now a whooop ass(IMO) guitar lead in there. A few other tweaks. Removed some eq'ing and compression that wasn't really doing anything. Things may have opened up a little. Chaos

    New tune, new monitors, new room

    Hi all. This is the first tune I've done since making major changes to my environment. New monitors and lots of rigid fiberglas. This is a very quick mix of a new song and I'm wondering how the low end is translating. I think I may have to tweak the low trim on the monitors a bit. Give it a...

    Possible problem with new HD24

    I just got the HD24 this week. I having some strange shit happen. Here's the scenario. I have a soundtracs console, standard inline format, 32 channel. Each channel has tape send and tape return. There is a button on each channel strip to monitor either line/mic in (which is record mode) or...

    The "EVENT" we've all been waiting for.......

    Well, at least I have:D My Event Studio Precision 8's just arrived. Right behind my HD24:D I just got them unpacked and all I can say is holy fuck! I didn't know they were so large (and heavy). I'm pretty sure I soiled my pants. These things need to be soffit mounted. Too bad I can't do...

    Mix/general comments on Heavy song

    This is the last song I recorded before all the new room treatments went in. New monitors are on the way as well. This is about as good as I could get with my crappy room and crappy monitors. It should only get better from here on out. Song is called RUN

    New OC 703 treatment pics

    I spent about $1,000 on rigid fiberglas last week. I've pondered what other gear I may have purchased but alas I realize that it was better spent on treating the room than new gear. Here is couple pics of what I got so far. I'm gonna make the ceiling a black hole for sound (hopefully) cause...

    Mackie or Alesis

    I will be getting a new 24 track hardisk recorder in a couple days. It will either be the Mackie SDR24 for $930 or the Alesis HD24 for $1250. Any insights as to which may be the better unit? I hear an awful lot of good stuff about the Alesis unit.

    Stero micing techniques

    I can't seem to get anything to sound "stereo" when trying any of the many micing techniques I have read about. Everything seems to come out pretty mono sounding. For instance, when I do this on a drum set, I can't get it to sound as though the snare is off to right, the kick in the middle...

    Good program comp/limiter

    Anyone have a suggestion for a good comp/limiter to put across the mains? Not too expensive now! I'm trying to get away from using plugins.

    On my way to analog goodness

    Just bought this off ebay. I've been looking for a nice console for awhile now. It was a toss up between this one and a tascam 3700. It went with the Brit.:D Sountracs PC 32

    Drum mix test

    I have really been working at recording acoustic drums. Man what a bitch. I think I made some progress though. I worked on tuning the kick differently. Finally found a pretty good place for the room mics(best place yet) Oh, and my bro gave me about $2500 in cymbals. What a difference good...

    Cover of SRV (Crossfire)

    Though I 'd have a little fun and brush up on the chops as well. Stevie kicks ass. Check it out and let me know what you think of the guitar tone. There are a couple mistakes and the tempo fluctuates a couple times. ftp://www.visual-audit.homeip.net/mp3/crossfire.mp3 Warning: It's on my...

    How does one know when.........

    your tracking skills have progressed to the point you are getting the most out of the crappy equipment you have? Ya see, I'm not sure anymore if it is me or the gear that is hindering me at this point. Has anyone else reached this point? I'm sure you have. I guess I have to drop some cash...
