    Close micing cabinet?

    I am recording in a largish untreated room around 20x30 feet. I am close micing my guitar and bass amps. Does anyone know if there should be a difference in the quality of recording if I used a sound proofed room? (I am angling the cab to avoid standing waves) I am asking this becuase I have...

    Change Latency?

    Anyone know how to make SX3 run smoother for mixing? I couldnt see anything but a bit where you can change the buffer size, but I aint sure what to do as its not presets, just a number you can change. Sometimes im getting delay of like almost a second for starting and stopping! Cheers. Eck

Anyone else get this problem, and have any ideas on how to combat it? My set up is Ibanez 5 string active bass...

    Distorted guitar meat

    Does anyone know how to go about trying to get a real deep lo end on distorted guitars without getting a muddy or boomy tone while still keeping the bite/presence? An example of this deep lo end in the guitars would be Deftones. http://www.deftones.com/5_2/site.html Click link and go to...

    FUnky Mix

    Check out this funky mix. Any comments on mixing quality are very welcome. I like the drum sound. Didnt add any reverb on the drums atall, I used the natural reverb picked up from the 2 sets of OHs and the room mic. Just used the close mics for a little more in yuour face punch. Cheers, Eck

    96kHz versus 41.1kHz

    I recorded at 96kHz (24bit) today for the first time. I wasnt sure if I could notice a difference as I was recording drums and was using a better drum kit than usual. I used a Yamaha 02R 96 with a Digi 192 unit. I used 57s, 58s, NT2s, C414s, D112s to mic the kit. Should I get a better...

    Radio compression

    I was listening to the radio today and came up with an idea. I was thinking why doesnt someone bring out a plug-in that emulates radio compression. This way you can slap the plug-in on your master out when mixing and try and get the mix sounding as good as it can with the radio compression on...

    Pro Tools?

    Didnt know where to post this one really, so posted it here. I have been sent a session file of a song to be mixed. I got the usual fade files, session file that you get using Pro Tools. But when I tried to open the wave files they had no extension! I tried renaming them as .wav or.aiff but...

    Fade In/Out ?

    I have been playing about with fade ins/outs on Nuendo and ive noticed when I create a small fade at the end of a track (when editing) I get a click when I play the edit back. I know that if I hear a click it means that the wave has not reached 0 at the end of the wave. Is theere any settings I...
