Hi there My interface is a Presonus Firestudio Project. I am looking to buy a seperate Mic Pre for improving my recordings. Is it worth buying something like the ART TPS II? or are the mic pre's in the presonus just as good? If I do upgrade I will need a device with 2 channels as I will be...

i currently own a presonus firestudio project and was looking to buy a new microphone preamp (goldenage 73) to improve my vocal recordings. I have only read good things about both of the preamps mentioned. will the goldenage pre 73 make an improvement to my sound or are the Xmax preamps ample...

planning to record my classical with a mic 12" from the 12th fret and also with another mic 12" from the bridge. I read recently that the distance between the two mics has to be 3X the distance from the sound source and mic. in this case that would be 36" , if i did this though the mics would be...

just read this! Recording Levels And Gain Staging - Audiofanzine i kind of get the impression that i should lower my gain input on my interface so i get -15 -20db of in put in my DAW. If i do this my actual peak reading on my interface (firestudio project) will be considerably low, as in the...

i was listening back to a guitar part i recorded today in my head phones (AKG 77s) volume about half way, any louder is just ridiculous. It seems to have a very high output for some reason. i noticed on this guitar part that there was some unwanted distortion or clipping. nothing was clipping...

i have separated my EZ drummer kit onto separate channels withing cubase. it is only possible to do this when setting ez drummer up on a midi track rather than a vsti track. the only problem now is that i cant insert any plugins! only midi plugs should i setup say my limiter on an fx channel...

I am carrying out simple mastering within my DAW. My question is, on mixdown should i export to 16bit or 24? i realize mastering houses request 24bit Wavs, do they then mixdown to 16? my project setup is 44.100kHz sample rate and 16 bit Format :)

I am currently running three different tracks with amplitube as a plugin on each of them. my cpu is not a great fan of this to say the least!! haha when i bounce the individual tracks down should i set the fader for the track to 0db, and then once imported mix the track to what it was before...

I am attempting to e.q the stereo out on track i am working on. I am using cubase 5 studio eq and want to use a high pass filter to remove bottom end below 35Hz. I seem to have a problem as when i set the high pass there (35hz) it slowly starts rolling off from around 100Hz down to 20db at...

I have a few questions on using a limiter that need clearing up. I apologize now for my lack of understanding on the subject etc... When one uses a limiter in mastering to increase the overall perceived volume how many Dbs is an ideal maximum to increase by, and likewise with gain reduction...

I have numerous amplitube vsts running in one song. My aim is to bounce them down to separate audio tracks. If i can do this I will save a lot of processing power as Amplitube eats up quite a bit of it. I am using Cubase 5 many thanks
