is the sound of one eq plug compared to another eq plug different in sound wise? (eg. the waves q-10 and waves Req). if so what makes eq plugs dif from one another and in your opinion what is the best eq plug?

i'm not saying i don't want to cut at all i mean i don't want to cut it to the point where it's all gone and even after that the high end could still not be enough.

yea but boosting adds more though. thats what i heard

yea i checked you're songs. they sounds good. i always ask people how to achieve that "wide" vocal effect and they always answer "the artist probably doubled it" lol i'm like no i saw with my own eyes that it was just one take without it being doubled. do you know any other plugs that can give...

how would i get more high end by cutting without messing up the low end or midrange cause i know that boosting adds phase shift

i didnt actually see all the equip they were using lol. i just saw the rapper in the booth recording his vocals and he only did one take and that was it for the song no overdubs or nothing. it was a kind of a different type of song so he didn't want to do any overdubs or double it. the final...

i don't have any booth or anything to record in and i have a 100$ mixer. I don't think the mixer is too good. it's a yamaha mg10/2 and i have a shure ksm27 mic. i set up 3 matresses in my closet and put the mic in there to record. well i guess that's my booth but not a very good one.

thanks tarnation. have you used the Hyperprism Quasi-stereo. can you give me a link to it?

do you know of any stereo plugin that can make my vocals sound like it's in you're face and wide without having to stack my vocals? some of the hip hop songs i listen to, they only recorded 1 take and the vocals still sound wide and like it's in you're face. how do they do that with only the...

how come most hip hop vocals sound dry like no reverb was used on them what so ever and they still sound real good but when i try to use real tiny reverb, it doesnt sound right?

when dealing with reverbs, do you guys normally set the pre-delay to the tempo of the track? is that the best way to do it? i was reading another thread about this. I usually set my pre-delay to just 0. does anyone one else just set it to 0?

thanks ms. when people master songs, is it common to set the threshold to -20 or that doesnt seem common?

i have 2 questions. Before mastering, is it best to get the mix around the 0dbvu level, is that how loud it's suppose to be before the mastering stage? also when setting the threshold of a compressor, do i just set it to whatever the highest peak is?

i' m not sure what it's using. it's just says traditional vu meter

when i record in soundforge, i watch the vu scale and the peak scale and my peaks are getting to like -8 but the vu scale is not even reaching 0 it's only reaching like -7.

when recording, is it good too keep the levels at 0dbvu or should it be higher than that?

does anyone know of any good sound cards that don't produce self-noise? i have a soundblaster audigy. There's noise in the signal even when the mic isnt plugged in yet.

have anyone ever mixed or mastered something without boosting any EQ what so ever? if so how would you get it to sound crisp without having to boost eq and get phase shift?

does Steinberg free file come with wavelab 5? or where do you get it from?
