Behringer makes a good product, Yamaha is kid tested and yo mama approved!

Is your highhat on a seperate track? Not familiar with the mackie unit, but I would crank the high hat track and compress, you should get to a comfortable volume. It is very important to make sure you have good levels before you do the take to avoid problems of this nature, but just like many...

What are you recording onto? How many mics are you using and where are they placed? You will always have a little seepage when micing a drum kit. The fact is, the mics are just to close to a loud ass inst. Try to get away from the high - hat and closer to the snare with that mic. Are you using...

I was listening to the Black Crowes and I like the what they do with the guitars. Two guitars, one panned full left the other full right. What do you do if you have three guitar tracks? Would you put the guitar solo in the middle or the rythm? This question also applies to vocals. I like to...

I am running pro tools so hopefully I can line everything up properly. I originally had the overhead over the snare but combined with the snare mic it was overpowering the cymbals, which is what I need in the overheads. I'll try moving it around a bit. Thanks for the help!

Mics- Snare Kick 1 Tom Flr Tom 1 overhead (condenser) It seems that the phasing lies in the overhead mic but could it have something to do with another track creating this sound. Would phasing be caused by one track alone or several tracks played together? Low budget mics / except overhead cndsr

Do you have phantom capability? If so, I bought a great AT condenser off ebay for around $150. The big brother of the AT3030 whch is a great budget mic

Hello all, I have been experiencing a bit of phasing with my drum overhead track. I am running one condenser for the overhead. My drummer does great cymbal work and I would like to really bring it out in the mix but when I bring the volume it creates a small phasing sound. Doesn't sound as bad...

Gator makes a case that holds two electrics. You may find a double case for acoustic and electric. They are pretty cheap too.

Makes since, less work in post. Now if I could only afford it

My vote for Best Thread EVER!!!!!

Ok, So with the advent of multi-track recorders came the ability to mix independently bla bla bla. O.K another question. Why can't I plug a analog mixer into my digi 001 and assign tracks. Why does it have to be motormix or some other digital hoopla.

Why do you need a compressor to record guitar and bass? Why not mic the amp you are playing through and compress after? Not being an ass, just curious

Having learned recording on an all digital rig I have never had answers to some of my analog recording questions. What I would like to know is, in a big studio when running into a large mixing board how can you mix in post. I'll use drums to clarify... You have your high hat on fader 1, kick...

Just take a sample and loop it. Meow city. I used to have a BIG RED LIGHT above my door along with a sign that said.. IF THE RED LIGHT IS ON DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR! MAKE NO SOUND! and of course. Knocks on the door, people coming to the window and waving, man I am gald I moved.

I took my cdr to a radio station and yes they play it

I know the feeling. Computers suck! I had to get help from a friend when I setup my digi, maybe look for a cubase forum. You have got a good start if you're starting on a G4. Wish I could help. Let me know when you get your song posted.

Well first of all, someone who gets bored eastily has no place in the drum world. Essential to drumming is the "Groove" it might take him a while to understand that but a drummer keeps the beat, thats what drums do. ya know? Playing with a click always helps, my drummer had/has some timing...

Try recording your click to a track and then making it loud as hell over the drums in the mix. That's what I do in Pro Tools. Another advantage is you can edit the click. Sorry if this doesn't help

Just tell them, that wasn't the one or blame it on computer error :)
