There is a unique phenomenon that occurs when we listen to a recording for the first time. I believe that the way we perceive and interpret a new recording has a lot to do with what we heard immediatly beforehand. Like eating a piece of ginger in between sushi courses, it is possible, I...

Per the manual, they leave the factory with only one partition. But when I go to "HDD Info" it shows Drive 1 with about 20 G, and Drive 2 with about 17 G. Is this part of the "Version 2" upgrade? Scott

I think this DVD series is very cool. For those who haven't seen one of these, they select a famous record and have the original artists, producers & engineers walk the viewer through the recording process. So far I've seen the Floyd, U2, Nirvana, Marley, & Steely Dan. I've actually learned a...

Not sure if this is normal or not: Inputting 2 mics and tracking them simultaneously in an X/Y pattern. When recording dry, the "Mic 1" signal is much stronger than "Mic 2." But when using a "simultaneous" effect patch, they're about the same. (I know both mics and cables are good.) Has...

There is only one phantom power "switch" governing the two mic inputs. But I want to input a condenser and a dynamic mic at the same time. One requires phantom, the other does not. Am I out of luck?

What's the consensus? Is it better to EQ using headphones or monitors?

Opps, got posted twice. Will a mod please delete this copy?

I'm an amateur, but I think Matt Johnson's (The The) vocals on Dusk are immaculately recorded. Anyone know what gear and techniques were deployed?

It seems like the SM58 is rarely discussed as a recording mic, and that it's mainly used on stage for vocals. Yet it has a frequency response very close to the 57. Has anyone found a good use for the 58 in the studio?

New member, and fairly new to home digital recording. Looks like a good forum. Sorry if this is a repeat of another recent thread topic. What the consensus on the MXL 990/991 condenser mics? Intended uses would be vocals (990), accoustic guitar (991), and guitar amp (991). So far I've been...
