    RIP Neal Peart

    If there's a 7-11 in Heaven then life was just a one night stand.

    Mastering Thought for the Day

    Perhaps I was mistaken. I was under the impression that it was you who had done the original mix and not a mixing engineer to whom you had hired who then passed it on to a mastering engineer.

    Mastering Thought for the Day

    And then what? Tweak your original mix and have it mastered again necessitating more tweaking of the tweaked mix? That process could go on forever.

    Ideas On How to Get The Mix Sound of Conor Albert ?

    I hope someone else, a drummer, can better advise you how to capture that muffled/distorted kick sound.

    Ideas On How to Get The Mix Sound of Conor Albert ?

    Oh no! Never, was I comparing you to anyone else. Over driven sound? That sound was always at the very edge of distortion whenever I listened to AM radio. It was...what it was. Difficult to hear lyrics.

    Ideas On How to Get The Mix Sound of Conor Albert ?

    AM radio is no different today than it was nearly 60 years ago when I would listen to Mad Daddy and Wolfman Jack. That's the lo fi sound I remember way back then whenever I laid in bed holding onto a small radio close to my ear. It was all there. The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and others...

    What is a producer ?

    Totally wrong! Producers, IMO, play an important role whenever a band is in the process of recording an album by suggesting what or who to add or subtract to each song recorded in the studio. Have you ever listened to Christopher Cross singing "I really don't know anymore" and then hearing...

    What is a producer ?

    No one is saying that you are evil. You have openly admitted that you pretty much get drunk every night in the midst of posting here at HR. Once upon a time here at HR, there was the SAS forum. Perhaps it's time that HR Administrators should resurrect the SAS forum or create a similar sub...

    Cassette Pinch Roller Carnage…

    I have to admit that this thread caught my interest because of the photos that Sweetbeats posted and the measurements of that rubber covered pinch roller, which is only what? 3/8" or 1 /2" wide. The left and right side diameters measured .015 mm (.006" ) less than the center of the pinch roller...

    Still allergic to digital ?

    I've always enjoyed reading your posts until today. I'll just leave it at that.

    Still allergic to digital ?

    Can you rephrase that in a complete question?

    Mixing trade offs

    And there you have it! That is the key thing! Get it right before you press the bright red Record button. There has been many times, in the past, I recorded a crap track.

    Still allergic to digital ?

    I concur, with one caveat. It was more than obvious from the get go that Mr. Recycle was the most recent alias indentity created by a priorly banned HR member. I agree with Grim that the the thread, itself, wasn't all that harmful. I'm guessing that when Mr. Recycle was removed, the removal...

    Mixing trade offs

    ^^^^^ I concur.

    How would you pan a drummer in the mix that has both high hats and the ride on the same side?

    I have to agree with Rob. In most live band settings, the drummer is centrally located, which amounts to (in my mind) that a very narrow range of right to left panning is necessary when recording drums.

    Its crap

    I must have just missed whatever it was posted before it was edited (once again) by Mr. Smithers. Posting "It's Crap" and "Goodbye" in the recording techniques forum is flat out weird. Nearly everyone here (long time members) have had disagreement with others in the past. And every year...

    How Many People Are Using Cassettes Here?

    I still have a reel to reel recorder that I used years ago to record and I still have the tapes of what I had recorded years ago. I digitized a few recordings from those tape recordings only to discover that there was (for lack of better words) a loss of the fluidity and fullness that tape...

    Lets start a "Dan" thread

    I hate quoting myself but the question remains. Why did Fagen and Becker never perform as a duo?
  19. 60's guy

    Lets start a "Dan" thread

    There's an even longer list of names who Fagan and Becker employed and hired. Don't get me wrong. I'm a Steely Dan fan, with one exception. Fagan and Becker never performed as a duo in front of a live audience, which was the norm for Seals and Croft, and other duos back in the day.

    Where have all the acoustic drums gone ?

    This thread piqued my interest because I have a friend who is a drummer whose first experience in a recording studio changed his approach to tuning his acoustic drum. My friend was the drummer for a progressive rock band. They recorded. In the control room listening to what had been recorded...
