M-S in in theory a very elegant technique. Is it ever used for drums? Everyone seems to use X-Y or two separate mics for stereo OHs, but wouldn't M-S be good also?
Beginning with his second album, Everybody Knows This is Nowhere, Neil Young recorded all his vocals live along with his band. My question is: How?
I'm fairly certain that with most of the albums, with the exception of Tonight's the Night, a condenser was used. I think that Eliot Mazer is on...
My copy of Cool Edit Pro v 2.0 craps out when I add FX to the tracks. Basically, when I add reverb to more than three tracks, the program crashes. Is the program buggy like this?
I am fairly sure that this not my CPU, since my usage runs around 25% when the program is stalled. Also, I have a...
I want to ask about the merits of the S/P DIF I/O on my soundcard. I don't have any preamps that utilize S/P DIF right now, but I would like to know if it would be worthwhile to get some. How is the S/P DIF I/O different or better than simply using the "preamp->1/4" cable->external D/A...
This question doesn't really regard recording, although since i record live it does for me.
I don't have any proper monitors for my PA, so i've been using the speakers sitting on the ground and propped up to face me (no one else can hear me now.... which is maybe good... hehe). the problem is...
How can I monitor live with my Delta 1010? I want the drummer to be able to listen to the guitar and bass tracks that are being recorded simultaneously on headphones.
I'm using Cool Edit Pro.
Cheers!
Will phantom power hurt a mic that doesn't require it? I'm sure it doesn't, but just wanted to make sure.
I'll be running a condenser mic through a mixer along with several dynamics. I'll need to have the phantom power on to use the condenser.
Cheers!
I would like to officially announce that I just purchased a digital recording set up (I just had to tell someone!).
I got a Delta 1010 to run with my new PC. The PC has an Athalon 64-bit 2800+ processor with 1 gig RAM and a Gigabyte GA-k8vm800m motherboard.
I'm stoked!
Anyways-- enough of my...
Hey, when I do get a Delta 1010 will I be able to install it myself? I have little experience monkeying with PCs beyond setting up a router, etc. Would someone kindly point me in the direction of some step-by-step intructions if I would be able?
Cheers,
Michael
I've heard about problems with the Delta 1010 LT when combined w/ AMD processors. Is this the same w/ Delta 1010's? I'm buying a new pc and the delta 1010. Should I go with the Pentium or is AMD ok?
Hey, i wanna use my PA as a preamp for my vocals when recording live off the floor. Can i just send the "monitor" output into my soundcard (delta 1010)? will it overload it or anything?
thanks,

Hey, since searching is diabled, i've gotta ask.
Where are the best online deals on mics? i wanna pick up a couple rodes and studio projects, kind of thing.
Thanks!
hey guys,
i'm searching for audio clips of head-to-head comparisons of various low end consensor mics. i'm looking for instrumental tracks, vocals, whatever.
thanks
Ok folks,
My band and I, based out of Victoria, BC, want to try recording ourselves using close-micing techniques, but also with mics far off in a large room in order to capture the natural reverb of the environment. You see, we are big fans of My Morning Jacket, who use rooms and silos as...
Hey guys, i've heard a lot of things about this tune. what do you think.

check out the first one posted-- "i'll get along."
i played drums, sang, played guitar and played bass--- that's right: everything.
I'd like to buy a new computer in order that i can record multiple tracks at a time to cubase. how fast are everyones' PCs? what sound cards do you used?
What does the True Tape effect do? the Help thing says it is a new "paradigm of recording" or some shit, but i figure it is just some kind of effect. What does it do? it just seems like it makes it louder.
