    Problem recording TD-3 (MIDI)

    i've had this same problem with my TD3 as well. cept i had it with my deta 1010 midi in. my firepod tended to work well with the td3 - i wonder what the hell it is then???? mine would just record the first maybe ... 20 seconds of the midi track - then just STOP out of nowhere.

    First time recording, a few drum questions

    what i used to do when i was this limited was get a good mix with two overheads and a 57 on snare ... then pan that hard right, and pan the kick mic hard left. then i would seperate the stereo track (in good ol cool edit 2k hehe) and have one track that was "drums" and one track that was "kick"...

    How many drum mics do you record with

    RODE nt 5's for overheads Beta 52 for kick SM57 for snare SM57s for however many toms there are, then i send the toms to a mixer and just record a stereo L R of the toms along with everything else also ... if i can convince the drummer its just a "fancy...

    Feel Good Story - M-Audio & DMP3

    yeah ... now if they'd only develop vista drivers for the delta interfaces that thousands of us own ... THEN i'd be impressed. sorry - this thought crosses my mine once ever ten seconds.

    Controlling the low lows ..?

    Ok - i'm a novice, so bear with me (and my terminology probably) here. I've noticed something lately with my mixes. When I'm monitoring on my monitoring set-up, the low end is nice and wide and everything, but not overpowering. When i pull up a track from a commercial CD on that set up, its...

    i agree ... i recorded it in the hallway that opens up into a studio-style apartment. Its where he first played me the song - so i originally wanted to capture that moment. it would have been nice to have seperate tracks for each mic instead of a mix .. but hey ... stuff breaks .. i guess.. i...

    Any constructive critisism wanted thanks!

    uhm .. i love this. i think its wonderfully done, actually. Its very "Against Me!" in every way - the song itself, the recording style, and the energy created by both. haha ... i have no suggestions for any changes though ... so i guess i fail the "constructive critiscism" you asked for ...

    Help need please PLEASE

    love it. percussion is huge and beautiful. i like the finger-noise personally. meticulously executed things don't "move" me the way something like this can. i dig.

    Acoustic Blue Cars

    nice quality on the acoustic in my opinion. what mic is that? same for vox? the sampled drum beat makes it hard to listen to all the way through though

    Punk rock project

    which version of protect and serve are you talking about? this is just an opinion - but i enjoy the recordings except for one thing on the first two - the kick sound. is that mic'd, or sampled? For me, anyway, it seems overly "metal" aggressive tonality for the style of music. It takes away...

    i know i know ... but sometimes the moment strikes you... the thing is, actually, that i've jammed with this guy for a little while now, and he's SUPER quiet and softspoken ... then he just wailed this song for me and he had NEVER sang in front of people before - i thought he was good enough...

    Remixed and ready to go (I think).

    for the most part, the ONLY lineup i always enjoyed in MM was Manson, John 5, and Twiggy. they have a few good tracks before that linup, and ZERO since, but that was the only era where i really dug it. i deffinatly hear some Holywood influence in this song though (its what it reminded me of...

    impromtu acousticrecording ok - so i'll tear it apart before anyone else does the vocals have a bit too much reverb at most times - but i recorded the guitar and vocals at the same time onto one track because my firepod's firewire stopped working and i had to use it as a single preamp for both...

    Remixed and ready to go (I think).

    I agree. The weight is there already (for guitars, anyway) i like the atmosphere - it kinda reminded me of marilyn manson recordings from ... 5 or so years ago

    How about an original.

    i think if the periphials were spruced up to where there was more of a thought-out song aspect to the background instruments, then the lead part would, by default, tend to take on more of a melodic and pleasing-to-listen-to structure, you know? As it is, you're just jamming on a backing track -...
