any info would be appreciated... and I know it depends on the rest of the mix. but I want to make it more defined and stand out a bit more in some parts than others? anyone have experience with this? just some EQ/compression guidelines?

here's my problem. I have panned several thing left and right (hard) and what not, and left the vocal smack dab in the center. it sounds great and at the right levels on my monitors, even in my car, but then listening in headphones the vocal isn't very loud at all and is sometimes lost. what...

got a press kit ready, know who to contact, but what do I say? that we're releasing a CD soon or that we'd like to do an interview? what do you say?

I know it depends on the voice, blah blah, but which do you prefer... particularly for male voices.

it's called "don't push me away" was wondering if the "forever" sounds off (the first time you hear the word in the song)... also any other critiques... thanks for the speedy response! http://www.michaelchagnon.com/dpma.mp3 thanks!

anyone know how it's so clear? it makes me cry.

I'm having trouble getting the bass to be both deep in tone and clear in the mix. I can get it clear in the monitors, but then when I try it with headphones or different systems, the bass isn't always very clear with distorted guitars. Any EQ suggestions for getting the bass to sit better in the...

I listened to some clips on their site, sounded pretty decent. anyone have experience with it? I was thinking about it for live recordings of my band.

I have an acoustic track (one guitar)... the vocal isn't layed down. I'd like to add strings to it, but I don't know how. If someone here would like to give it a shot, it would be much appreciated - but all I could offer in return is a pat on the back, credit on the CD, and my undying love. I...

thank you. I'm trying to describe it to someone and I am a terrible teacher.

I got the tracks recorded nicely... but I can't seem to get them to sound good together... even with EQ. Any tips for stemming the frustration that has occured? What do you do when you feel like you can't get anything done? Any good websites to read on mixing? =(

just a theoretical question... if you wanted to record an entire orchestra in a good sounding auditorium, say at least 50 feet wide... and you had two oktava mk012s, a studio projects b1, and a shure sm57... how would you set it up...

by the time i'm 83 they say there won't be social security and people won't care about the degree i earned when i was 23 or the college i applied to when i was 17 i'd rather live now then prepare for the end because it will happen with or without me won't be nothing left for me deep sense of...

no one lives forever yeah everyone must die and I don't care, I am prepared I am not scared of the unknown and I don't believe in fate but we don't have any control nothing lasts forever yeah everything will fade away and we won't be remembered for anything we do or say we are not important and...

I recently acquired it... and have played with it, and it can be fun to get a certain effect on some vocals, but I wouldn't want to use it past that... like to fix a pretty bad vocal. I don't know, I just feel like it's cheating. If you can't sing it like that live, you shouldn't be singing it...

I have written at least 300 songs... so I figured I knew the basics... so I wanted to break the rules and write a song that just kept moving forward. No chorus, no hook, not repetitive, not much organization. I get bored writing the same old stuff, so I try to make everything completely...

ok... what I am going for is a weezer, everclear, queen, white stripes distorted guitar sound. I want distortion, but I don't want it overwhelming and harsh... I want it smooth... and I want it to blend nicely like the bands I listed. here's what I did: 1.put a shure sm57 right up on the...

does anyone know how people go about recording these pop songs these days for people like britney spears or justin timberlake, etc... it seems like just a bunch of random loops... but they must know what they are doing.

it's called fall in love again... so ... listen and oh yeah there are no vocals yet. mix tips paalleeeeeeeease! my main questions are: should the drums be louder? should I redo the bass line? anything I should EQ/Compress? http://www.templatecentral.net/fallinloveagain.mp3

http://www.orange-fields.com/widepages/wideasleeprec.html has info on mic placement, eq'ing and shit... seems reasonable. some things are more effective than others like the EQ info, rather than some of the placement info.
