    Ok, I have a confession

    Who said you cant be a mastering engineer?

    Increasingly, I am seeing pro albums that say "recorded, mixed, and mastered by" x. and x is one and the same person. Of course, the albums sounds just as good as those that were done in three-five different studios. I also suspect that the recording,mixing and mastering engineers used the...

    A shot of Nitro for your preamp

    I think this would be interesting to hear for those who have relatively flat mics. I tried this cable on my AT 4033 mic and it sounded like I was using some high eq or something. It really brought out more sizzle. Now I understand why buck62s mp3s have so much cleanliness and detail-because he...

    Are we still equalizing vocals?

    About a year ago, I read a post from an engineer that it was rare to find a situation where the vocal needed no eq. Nowadays I hear people saying all the time that they dont need eq on their mics. What changed? Are we settling for less, or is it that what plugin eqs do to vocals is worse than...

    Oops! I think I inverted the matrix

    Sorry sjoko2, I was warned , now I have to pay for it. I did this track with the Blueberry, and I can tell you first hand that it does not play nice with my sytek.It sounds like someone running fingernails across a board(I read that about a TLM103) I got an M-audio dmp2, but I have not tried it...

    I need a hardware Sampler soon

    I need to expand my sonic palette, and I was wondering, what would be a good one for about $500 used. I would prefer it to have spdif i/o but it is not a determining factor.

    so whats the deal with the 4033

    I hear a lot of people thrashing on this mic, but I dont get it, to me it sounds smooth, detailed and generally nice. What is it that you dont like about this mic on vox?

    Do solidstate pres and mics need warming up

    I know that one should warm up a tube mic for about an hour for best results. Does this hold true for solidstate preamps and mics, or can I just plug in cold and get equal results?

    tip on using bright mikes

    For a “big” vocal sound with maximum presence, Mount the mic on a boom stand, and tilt the capsule up (toward the forehead) for more projection and head tone, straight on at the mouth for maximum brightness and intelligibility, or down toward the chest for more robust lows and smoother highs...

I am continually amazed at the improvement Iv got with sweet converters and a sweet preamp. THat and with 85dbs...

    a GREAT tip for logic users

    I found this today and I felt the urge to pass it on. If it only helps one person.... Anyhow, I never used auto input monitoring cos the latency was like a whole second and it was impossible to monitor vocals and music at the same time in the headphones, since the headphone amp is going out of...

    these guys found that its easier to insert the compressor on the stereo mix once the basic balance is got than to wait till the end. http://www.recording.org/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic&f=21&t=000299
