    ART TPS Tube Preamp System

    I'm in the market for a tube mic preamp and living in Costa Rica, the possibilities are not that broad at all, so I'm thinking about importing one, and doing a little research around the net I narrowed it down to the ART TPS. Now, I know that I should HEAR how this sounds before I buy it but...

    Pop ballad what do you guys think?!...

    I just finished mixing a pop ballad that I wrote with a friend who's a singer and wants to get a hit to sound in Costa Rican radios. We decided to start out, sort of testing the water, with a short simple ballad that I composed, arranged and recorded in a week. I'm quite happy with the...

    Using the iZotope Ozone

    Ok, for those of you who own this plugin, how do you go about using it for "mastering" a song?!! Do you select all then apply the audio fx to the whole song?! I've tried doing it this way but it seems to take forever to apply to all the tracks so I was thinking that once I'm done with a mix, I...

    HRC what about these drums?!

    Here's a track I did with no effects and not too much mixing done just yet. What do you guys think of the drums?! The piano is a very nice sounding soundfont, and the drums are a very nice sounding Pearl Export with a bunch of great cymbals. Any comments on the drums specifically for this is...

    Drum Overhead EQ Settings?!

    Ok, here's a question, I finished tracking a set of nice sounding Pearl Export Series in a small dead room with a pair of ECM 8000's as overheads; I placed them L & R of the set at about shoulder height, then placed a PG 52 inside the kick drum and a 57 for the snare. I got the kick sounding...

    Here's a Q for a few of you that I believe are using the SBLive with another sound card together. The question, as most of my questions, might be a silly one with a quick and easy answer but here it is nonetheless: I just plugged in my 1010LT, installed the software etc... however, I still...

    Plug-in arrangement??!!

    Hello all, here's what's been troubling me lately. The other day, I tried to add some bass chorus to a bass line using a freeware plugin that I had downloaded form directxfiles dot com. However, for some reason (I suppose this started when I upgraded to win XP from 2k) some of the plugs were...
