Hey, I was at my friends house and we had a condenser mic kicking around so we set it up and recorded this little diddy on an upright piano. I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on how it sounds/any suggestions for improving the sound...

Hey folks, Finally (almost) finished this metal mix I've been working on-and-off on since October. I've still got to time correct some parts, add in some more layers and spot effects and then finishing editing the music video for it... by the end of February :D Anyway, here's the link to the...

Hi, I have a boss GT6 guitar pedal with a MIDI out and I have the pedal hooked up to Cubase 6 and am getting a MIDI signal whenever I press one of the pedals. What I want to do is convert the MIDI data to, lets say a note... like C1 or something. From there I would have a sample loaded up in...

Hey, I'm just finishing up mastering my bands EP and am wondering how do some engineers make one song seemingly flow into another? It's weird, because when the end of a song reaches 0 seconds, it will go to -2 seconds before switching songs. I assume this means that it has gone 2 seconds into...

I'm running Cubase 6 on a Mac, can anyone shed some light on where I might find my track presets? I want to move a bunch of track presets I made on my Mac onto my PC but I can't find the folder that they're located in, I checked the packaged contents folder but they weren't there! :confused...

Hey, here's a progressive metal song/mix that's been brewing for about half a year now, it's so close to being done, there's just a couple things I have to do, one of those things is get some feedback from the amazing engineers on this forum! :) There's just one thing though... I'm having...

I want to know how bad these would be for mixing... I can get a pair for super cheap but would I be better off spending the money on a pair of less expensive headphones that give a flat response? My budget is around $200. Toss me your thoughts on what would be the best option for a good pair...

Gah! I'm so torn between the two headphones, I've been researching reviews all night and they both seem to fit my bill... but I will explain my situation further and would highly appreciate anyone with any insight/experience on these two cans give me some help in making a decision! :) Ok so...

Hey guys, one of my most recent and biggest sounding mixes yet. Figured I'd post it to here to get some criticism before I get my buddy to lay some vox over it. Also... what kind of vocals could you see fitting it and at what parts? Screaming, clean, raspy, growls etc... And of course tell me...

Bought a Duet half a year ago, I had it crap out on me a couple weeks after getting it. I sent it for repair and after waiting for 3 months I finally decide to phone in to see what was taking so long. Turns out they never received my interface so I complained and got an Apogee Duet 2 for free...

Ok so, here's the deal. I joined a band and were all chipping in to get a mixer/recording unit for handling instrument and vocal levels, recording guitars, bass, piano, vox, drums blah blah blah etc... Added effects such as built in compression, EQ and maybe some reverb/delay would be a nice...

Hi, I'm wondering if you can remove the eLicenser dongle after Cubase is loaded, or will it lock up until the dongle is put back in? I've been using Cubase LE4 forever now, I've been very happy with the layout of the software and am looking into getting Cubase 6. Just the method Steinberg...

Alright I'm back with my Blood and Thunder cover. I have 2 mixes that sound nearly identical but am finding myself going crazy over which one to pick. Both have their downsides, the first one has too boomy of a bass tone IMO and in the second one the levels are good except the hi-hat and...

Hey guys, Second post here, this time I'm back with a cover of the metal song Blood and Thunder by Mastodon. I'll be making a video to this of me playing the parts and uploading it to youtube but before I do that I want to make sure that my mix will appeal to an audience. I'm content with...

Hey everyone, I just cleaned out my studio and after some furious research on the gear placement, I have come to a happy configuration on that... However I need some advice as to where you guys would put your acoustic foam/bass traps in a room like this. And or could advise some products to...

Hey guys! First post on this forum, decided I'd sign up and ask some of my own questions after reading all the useful tips I've found here. I need some tips with mixing a metal song I recorded for a buddies band, mostly vocals though, I can't seem to get them to fit without super-compressing...
