    Do you start "producing" your song before it's done?

    I'm a folk singer so mostly it's just me and tenor guitar. So my usual routine would be half a dozen takes of the same song, choose the best one and clean it up. At this stage the song should be able to stand on its own. If not, start again. If it's fine I send it off for some bass. When the...

    Do You Like (Or Hate) Your Voice?

    I loathe my voice and never play it back without adding a little warmth. I try to be as analytical as I can when editing and tune out the fact that it's me I'm hearing. Sometimes though, I just can't take it.

    M Box 2 Mini Or Fast Track Pro??

    I've had the Fast Track Pro and passed it on to a nephew. Superb unit. Loaded with features. Never let me down but does produce some pops and crackles when stretched to the limits. Just had a look at the M Box Mini and can't figure out why it costs so much. Not even in the same league from what...

    Stuck. I don't know how to record...

    Download a free trial of Mixcraft 4. http://www.acoustica.com/download.htm It's made for folks like us. I use the Korg D3200 stand alone to record, by the way but then transfer the files immediately into Mixcraft for editing. Nothing records like a recorder and computers are far more superior...

    Behringer and the hits keep coming...

    I own a lot of Behringer gear and have only had one interaction with their product services. A faulty mic which I had bought for a friend. They did everything but drive up to his home with the new one. I told this story to a Berry Rep and he laughed. "You know" he says "I have a piece of gear in...

    Which software you use to make audio recording

    Mostly Mixcraft. Then Wavelab, Magix Samplitude 10, & Cubase VST 32. Have a Cubase 4 LE disc stuck away somewhere but not using it.

    Modding a Nady RSM-4 Ribbon Mic

    Nicely done! I'll come looking for you if I ever need to fix my ribbons. You think you could start a "Show Me" thread on checking and repairing ribbon tension?

    Finding The Right Audio I/O for multitracking

    Hey! Nice to meet a fellow Mixcraft user. Take a look at this http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/MAudio-FastTrack-Ultra-USB-2.0-Audio-Interface?sku=241806 and save yourself a buck! Coincidentally, I'm waiting for my ADA 8000 to arrive but I'll be using it as a preamp or as an add...

    Well I've tried looking for these online. Can you point me in the right direction?

    Please I Want to know The BEST MIC under 100$

    I'm into Nady. Great mics but really touchy for a beginner. I found the RSM 4 a bit dark. (Passed it along to a friend) The RSM 5 astounding and the RSM 2 better still but all requiring a touch more gain than the most interfaces have to offer. The AKG Perception, like any other mic under $100...

    Suggestions?

    Look here. https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=289032 That's a nice unit being sold by some one here at a very decent price. Much better than tape or minidisc and fairly intuitive.

    Please I Want to know The BEST MIC under 100$

    Interesting read. I have allowed my set up to be dictated by the length of my cables and have strictly adhered to the 20' rule. In fact, when I'm using the audio interface, every cable is 10'. Maybe a decent snake is a worthwhile purchase after all.

    Hi Ray: I'll be sure to do that. I get my studio back in a couple of weeks and am keen to see what some of these folks can teach me.

    help im new

    If it's software your looking for, I'd probably suggest Samplitude in your case. They are always upgrading so the previous model usually goes for cheap on E-bay. It follows basically the same model as Cubase and is quite intuitive. Given that you're doing this for the church, I'm guessing that...

    Please I Want to know The BEST MIC under 100$

    Hey Anass: I joined this site just over a year ago when a newby just like yourself asked the exact same question and was given the exact same treatment as you were. I messaged the individual with some encouragement and suggestions of my own and have not returned to or posted on...
