    Mixing advice, and guitar trouble

    This is for the distorted track that comes in around 1:20, right? What kind of mic did you use, and how did you place it? Did you add reverb to it from the signal chain/amp, or is it an insert in whatever DAW your using? The guitar definitely sounds thin, and abbrasive. I think you want a...

    pro tools / reason

    I agree, sounds like setting your loop markers in reason is the problem.

    New recording gear...

    So you have 2K to spend on top of what you already have? If your guitarists only do backup vocals, I would get the Beta 58's, there nice. You could look at the Beta 87A's, too. I wouldn't take a studio condenser on stage with me . . . personal preference. If you want to invest about 150+...

    recording 12 tracks to cebase?

    And just to clarify, those 2 tracks that the multimix sends is a stereo bus of all 16 channels.

    mixing/mastering problem......

    I always have lite compression and an L2 in my stereo bus. Its what I learned from a lot of people who know what their doing. I do export to wav and then do some finishing, but it has always worked great for me.

    recording separate tracks

    If your ever in Austin (which I recommend), hit up The Salt Lick. Its a BBQ pit about 30 minutes out and when you are finished . . the angels will sing. Glory Halleluja

    Bass drum problem

    Don't use too much of a broad Q in the upper frequencies though, it can tend to lead to muddiness in the upper mids, and that can sound brashy. Find a nice sweet spot and do a notch or little bigger. I also read an idea in Recording Mag about lowering some of the absolute lows and boosting...

    Sony Sound Forge Audio Studio??

    I looked up Sony Sound Forge Audio Studio, and for the price range (69.99) I would look into N-track. http://ntrack.com/ There's a section on this site dedicated to it. I've never used it, but I have seen it grow in popularity. It definitely looks like something to start with, and you can...

    Compression

    Audio energizer? If Logic supports VST, this is a great place to find free plugs: www.kvr-vst.com

    Making an album cover, whats the size?

    Thanks guys, both of those help. Freudian, I did read about "bleed" and how important it is with variations in cutting so I'm glad you pointed that out. Thanks for the link Erich.

    Making an album cover, whats the size?

    Hey! I am creating an album cover in Photoshop and I was just wondering what the dimensions (pixels, inches, huh?) are for a slim pack CD (those small compact ones). Any ideas? Thanks!

    VST Plugins not showing up in Cubase 4...is it because of Intel?

    Find out where all your plugins are. I know with PC, some programs will dump them in C>Program Files>Steinberg>VST Plugins, AND some will dump them in C>Program Files>VST Plugins. If Cubase doesn't know to look in both places, it won't find them. In Cubase, go Devices>Plugin Information (or...

    Firepod inputs 1 and 2

    Check to see if it's still under warranty. If not, Presonus offers an $85 flat rate to fix anything with your firepod. Thats a pretty good deal if you've had your firepod for awhile and the pre's went out.

    Firepod inputs 1 and 2

    If you plugged your guitar straight into channel 1 and 2; you should only have to turn the gain to about 8 or 9 o'clock, and it will sound fine. I always do this, and never have any problems. And no, don't use the external pre combined with the firepod. Thats the point of having a firepod, it...

    Alesis HD24XR

    I have the HD24 for recording our church worship services and I like it, I record at 24/44 to save space, but sometimes 24/48 if I want to do something of better quality. The transferring is a pain because of the ethernet connection, so I would look into getting a card for optical transfer if...

    Firepod inputs 1 and 2

    Uh, no, I'm pretty sure they don't. Imputs 1 and 2 are designed for instruments, or HiZ inputs, and microphones of LoZ. Basically, you can plug your guitar or bass directly into these inputs. For this problem specifically, are you using a microphone? If so, it is probably a condenser and...

    Was he the drummer for Faith No More? I saw Ozzy about 4 years ago, and he was his drummer.
