Is there any way to put the computer mic through a software effects filter? So I could, say, make myself sound like a woman or a robot to other in voice chat? That would be cool.

I'm trying to record a song that has guitar being played clean in parts and distorted in parts. Is it best to just record using a pedal and get all the levels worked out beforehand, or should I use one track for clean, and one track for distorted? It seems like it would be easier to apply the...

Alrighty! Having the first post here is a difficult responsibility. I can't think of what to say, and I've been toying with it for a few minutes now. First of all, thankyou Dragon for this haven for Minidisc users. It's sorely needed. I myself am using an MD8, which is a beutiful piece of...

I don't think the MD4s uses higher compression than the MD4, or the MD8. I THINK it's 4.0? I personally don't think the compression takes waya from the sound much, if at all. I don't think you can tell the difference between a song mixed down from minidisc and any other digital media. -Nil

OKay, I just got a drumset and am trying to learn the ropes. My bass drum does nto have a hole in it like a lot of other bass drums. Whats the good side of having ahole in the bass drum? Is it just for micing? How would I go about cutting such a hole? -Nilbog

Here's some general info, because I can't think of anything else to post. SONG: Cars (Gary Numan) LINEUP: Emeric - Guitar JonX - Drums Teddi - Vocals Nilbog - Bass Mix - DrStawl -nil

Okay, this lady called me because she heard I did recording through a friend. She asked me if I would be interested in doing live mixing for her band. I told her I would try, but I didnt have ANY experience doing live mixing. Anyway, tonight I'm going to their gig and am going to be working...

refer: https://homerecording.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/000598.html Is is true that a dymaic microphone is not effected by phantom power? I don't mean to doubt Cakey2, but I do have money put into these mics and I want to make absolutly sure before i put them on phantom power. The mics in question...

Okay, this is one for all you MD8 users out there. What if I want to use a mic which requires phatom power, and a Mic whcih does NOT require phantom power on channels 1 and 2? I see two possible solutions: 1. buy a seperate mic amp an dont use the MD8's. 2. PLug the non-phatom mics into the...

Whats an effect that makes your voice really high or makes it sound like kids voice? I've heard artists use them, and I was wondering what they were.

Hey, I've got a problem. My recordings are always a bit quieter than they should be, or as my other CD's are. When I record onto my computer, I get the input level right where it's not clipping on the loudest parts. Do I need to boost it after I get it on my hard drive? I'm using soundforge...

Vestax is releasing a vinyl cutting machine available to anyone (The VRX2000). I wonder how much this thing will cost? It's like a CDR except with records. Go here: http://www.vestax.co.uk/flash/vrx2000.htme -nilbog

I have decided that I shall bestow upon you the knowledge of the greatest keyboard ever. I happen to own one of these gems, it is my baby. IT IS THE CASIO SK1 A full featured sampling keyboard! sample rate: 1Khz Bitrate: 2 bit Smaple time: 2-3 seconds Keys: 30 something...but I'm missing a few...

Okay, I just bought a TEAC CDRW drive (4x4x32). I'm very happy with it so far for burning MP3's and such. However, I tried copying a CD directly (i.e. from my cd drive (16x) to my CDR drive - bypassing my hard drive). And I keep getting errors a few minutes into the burning proccess. It's...

Here's another Nilbog Original. Again, it's one that I had recorded a long time ago, but now re-recorded digitally. Please tell me what you think! It's on my idrive: Username: nilbog3k filename: words.mp3 -Nilbog

OKay, I don't know what your plans are, and I'm far to lazy to look (I know, youve heard that before). But it would cost EVERYONE nothing if perhaps you uploaded all the songs onto MP3.com and released a D.A.M. CD. You could have an artist section devoted to the compilation, and you could...

Here's a little ditty about Gary Coleman that was written and recorded in less time it took to mix down. Not really..but maybe. Check it out at my Idrive. Username: Nilbog3k the song is titled Gary.mp3 (in the shared folder). ---Idrive is being broken right now, so if the entire file isnt on...

Is there such thing as a computer based CDR with RCA inputs? If there was, then I could have the soundard bypassed sound quality of a standalone CDR, plus the CD authoring capabilities and versatility of a computer based CDR. I think my friend's work had an external 2x CDR with RCA inputs...

Okay, I have a few questions here: 1. What exactly happens when you use an XLR to 1/4" converter for a mic? Do you lose quality by plugging into a balanced input vs. an unbalaned input? Any help appreciated. 2. Why the heck are those converters (XLR to 1/4") so dern expensive. Seriouslly...

I was just given 6 Astatic 827's. They are public speaking microphones, but I was wondering if there was any possible application in music. I found a specs page at: http://www.astatic.com/commercial/827_specs.htm if you have a few, check it out, and tell me what you think. I was thinking...
