    Hey Joey, I hope you are around to see this but I just wanted to say thanks for that advice you gave on mixing acoustic guitar. I am finally starting to nail it. It's all thanks to you. I hope you see this, I really appreciate your advice. It was absolutely spot on. I knew I could trust what...

    Phase issue in mono

    You'll lose 3-4db on hard panned sources when summed to mono, that's quite a considerable difference. Don't pan as wide for best of both worlds, 3 and 9 o clock on rhythm guitars but go 100% for the FX, I believe this is what CLA does, and so does that guy in the videos that "HumanPlanet" just...

    Using Garageband and Scarlett 2i2 to record Guitars/Bass

    I didn't realise you was capped at 44.1, I just googled it! You can record at 24bit though. I record at 48k pretty much always. you're never going to be able to tell the difference between my 48k in logic, to your 44.1 in garage band, and if I was to record at 44.1 in Logic, the recordings will...

    Using Garageband and Scarlett 2i2 to record Guitars/Bass

    GarageBand doesn't sound any worse than ProTools/Logic etc. It just doesn't have the best workflow for more complex mixes, or as many plugin choices. You can get a very good bass recording straight into the 2i2, A ton of people I know mix great songs doing just that. But you can get better by...

    Room/Mic Problem

    I don't want to suggest you have a problem with the F6, I looked it up and those pre-amps are 75db worth of power. Which is powerful as hell. Your original problem was the room sound but you mention your F6 is struggling with that mic to record a proper level. I just find it hard to believe...

    Room/Mic Problem

    That's strange. I thought the Zoom F6 was practically the same as the F4, which I've used. With an NTG2. The Pre-amp on the F4 is no more than 40%, and fader (knob) at unity. I'll get peaks of -10dbfs, occasionaly -6 or so = perfect. I suppose that's not going to resolve your issue anyway...

    Mixing SOS

    Obviously your ears are good if you can tell your mixes are not right. I feel the same way as you. Mixing is hard, it is the hardest thing I have ever attempted in my lifetime. That 2k is a really tough area, it's almost the whole mix though, when the 2k is wrong, it is probably because your...

    Would you pay $60 to watch Grammy "nominee" Marc Daniel Nelson mix a full song in real time?

    When I see Marc Daniel Nelson, I pay attention. Would I pay for this course though? Nah. I don't care for mixing professionally recorded tracks anymore, it's no fun. The songs generally sound mixed as soon as you import em, it becomes a game of. What delay do I want to automate in this section...

    Download freely FL Studio

    Love driving down the road and seeing my work, I don't regret building, I'll keep doing it but it would probably just be for friends/family. My last job in which I ended up doing 2bathroom, a kitchen, a new staircase, a double garage and more just so happened to be for a guy that does broadcast...

    Download freely FL Studio

    A bit like a copper turning a blind eye. I get it. I'm well aware that it was me that lit the fire, so in a way, I am asking for a hard time. You're cool in my book. It's a touchy subject anyway. If you feel like you want to get out of construction then imo it is essential you do it! And I...

    Download freely FL Studio

    I tried to condense everything into the shortest possible reply. I hope you have the intelligence to take something from every sentence to paint you the picture of my stance which seems to have still gone over your head. I don't steal/pirate, I don't condone it. I just don't care if somebody...

    Download freely FL Studio

    I wasn't trying to say anything, I said to buy FLstudio and explained why, in my own style which does tend to piss people off. But i'm a drifter, I don't plan on settling in so it is my form of entertainment, whatever happens, happens. Did you know it is illegal for me to ridiculously...

    Download freely FL Studio

    Those plugin company's will use it as an excuse to hike their price up even more sure. But in reality it doesn't make sod all difference just like the XX millions of people streaming/pirating movies does not make them any more expensive, and this is done on a mass scale. Practically everyone and...

    Download freely FL Studio

    And rightly so. Especially as FLstudio are a very reasonable company. Others not so much, I don't care for certain company's, yeah they have to pay their bills, we gotta eat too. I'll use my own judgement on wether piracy is justifiable or not. That plugin in the other thread that was posted...

    What is the purpose of a 1khz reference tone and how do you use it?

    I only ever use it on my field mixer into camera. the 1khz test tone is set to output at -18 so if the field mixer is outputting -18 and the camera is only recieving -23 then we turn it up on the camera so it matches at -18. It's just for calibration, I've never used it for anything else. It...

    Everyone including the OP knows how to get FLstudio for free. But it is amusing watching everybody ignore the elephant in the room.

    Mono, Stereo, or Double?

    I really like the sound of a mono guitar, I don't really have any problem with there being no hole in the middle anymore, it's pretty easy to push the guitar back and pull the melody/vocal forward. Some songs just sound better mono to me, it's an artistic choice and not a limitation or lack of...

    Microphone tests and explanations

    Me too! I watched a bit of Ep15 (Piano) lovely. I just subbed but I struggle to find time to watch videos lately. I am looking forward to it though.
