Hey, just messing around with some vocals, and they sound pretty flat by themselves just straight out. Is there anything I can put on them to make them sound kind of smoother? It's not the actual vocals I'm saying sound flat, but was just wondering if anyone knows of something I could do to...

Hi, I'm going to buy an SM57 and have a quick question: is $140 AUS new a good price? I don't want to buy it if they're ripping me off... and this community always gives good, helpful advice. Cheers to anyone who can tell me/tell me where a cheaper place to buy one in Australia is. :) -Creep

Is this possible, and if so, how difficult is it? And is it expensive? And what's the standard equipment? I'm looking into it at the moment, but thought I'd gather you guys knowledge on it too! Cheers! -Creep

Hey! Sorry for the inconvenience. If anyone has an example of solo acoustic guitar recorded with a single SM57 on hand, if they could post it here, as I'm not sure yet if I want it. Just want a quick look into how it will sound! Thanks a lot to anyone who can help! -Creep

Saw these at the local music store for 50 bucks. Worth it? I don't need really expensive ones, as I don't have all the expensive gear. But I figured if these can give me a better sound in my ears while I'm messing with the music, then might as well. Anyone used them? If they're total shit...

Hey, I know about the ReaVerb on REAPER, but there's a sound I want that's a little more, say, spacier. Like, more echo-ey. Bit hard to explain but does anyone know how to do this? I've messed with the ReaVerb FX but can't seem to get the right sound. Cheers! -Creep

Whats your opinion of them if you've got/used one? I was looking through the music store today and noticed them near the 57's. Perhaps they're a cheaper alternative? Not sure, so I'd like to know what your experiences are! Cheers! :) -Creep

What would you recommend? What do you use? I just want to get some names of programs you'd recommend so I can research into them. No price range. Thanks a lot! -Creep PS: By mixing program I mean along the lines of Audacity, Reaper etc. That kind of software. But better =D

Pretty much as the title says. I'm new to recording acoustic guitar (or recording in general really) and I've tried just sticking the mic in front of the guitar, but it didn't sound right. Is there any techniques or special way of doing this? What have you tried and what works? Or is a mic in...

Hi, Been recording a bit of vocals lately, and I've been having a bit of a problem. I can't seem to to get the levels right, by which I mean that in some part of the song I'm singing I have to sing quieter to get the sound I want out of my voice, and others louder. However when I go to add...

Is there a trick to doing this? Or perhaps no way to do it at all? I just don't want to distort the bass when I raise the levels is all. Thanks in advance for your help. :) Cheers, -Creep

Hi, Just wanted to know where everyone learnt the tricks of Reaper... is there a website or a manual out there I could use to learn? I havn't found much through google searches and other places so I was wondering if there was a place you could direct me that you recommend? Cheers, -Creep

Hi, Just wondering what kind of adapter I have to buy so that my microphone can go straight into my computer's line in. The computer's microphone input is very small but the microphone input is large enough to go into an amp. Anyone know what kind of adapter I'm looking at? Cheers, -Creep

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I couldn't figure which one it should go in. I was wondering if anyone had a recording of just drums being recorded with one mic in the best position they could find? I've only got one mic right now and quality isn't a big deal (it's not for gigs etc) so...

Hi, Was wondering, if I was to use one mic to record some drums (yeah, I know one mic isn't a good idea for drums but I'm just testing it out) and I was wondering if I was to place the mic perhaps near the bass or snare (I would use it as an overhead but don't want the cymbals splashing...

Hi, I just found a LANE LM-580 in my house that I didn't know I had. I can't find much info on the net about it, so I thought I'd ask the community here :) Is it possible to record with this microphone? What's it good for? (if anything) Once again, apologies for my nub-ness/incompetence. All...

Hello everyone, hope you can help me here. What do I want to know? How to set up possibly the shittest recording studio ever. Here's my situation: I'm in a grunge band. We don't have much money. We're wondering if it's possible, to maybe pick up a cheap multipurpose mic (we're looking at a...
