No effects at all, just dry tracks also my distortions are fat too but im not concern about that. The drums and snare are my main issue and they are samples. everytime i listen to a demo of a drum sample/kit maker like drum kit from hell, steven slate etc... the drums sound squeezed dead center...

Hi, i notice in a commercial music, especially kick, snare and lead vocal. they are actually dead center and squeezed so that you can hear them right in the very middle. I have tracks for those three , the settings are dead center but they sound to wide. The problem is when you add more tracks...

OK give me a couple of days....im a pretty busy man.... ill give you hard L hard R both on ..and a clip from a commercial music that i want to achieve :D

yup i guess you guys are right! the other track must have a lower distortion. The amp/distortion settings are actually twins except my performance, so im getting the phase effect. Just a little quick down setting of distortion from one track, splitted both tracks a lot. Thanks guys, thats a lot...

hi, i have two track for gutiar distortion. they've been recorded separately but similar performance. Now i panned both, hard left and hard right, but you cant hear them hard enough from both side. if you play both tracks, it seems that you hear them at the center, but you solo them, you can...

How come you guys know all these stuff? Arent you supposed to be a recording engineer? not an electrician?

What is a tube in a compressor, preamp, guitar amp, etc....? How does that differ from with or without?

So how they usually hook up and use hardware eq comp this digital age? I never use hardware processor but mostly software so I'm kind of a noob by this. Planning to switch to mostly hardware coz they said hardware processing has better quality.

Hi guys, is it ok to record vocal without processing to daw then play it back, run the output to my hardware eq comp then back to daw? Or is it usually hardware eq comp on the first place before it goes in my daw.?

Hi guys if u have a decent mic with decent preamp/interface without any eq comp fx in this chain, does it supposed to sound fat big and wide coz it sound like it on mine assuming I was 6 inch from the mic. Or maybe somethings wrong with mic technique or placement

Hi guys, I have sonar 8. I am pretty sure that all vol setting from windows media player, sound device control, sonar track vol, sonar main output vol are in default 0 db. But it seems everything sounds louder inside the sonar than playing it in my media player. Even a regular commercial mp3...

hi, as you can see on my upload, there are several spikes from snare and kick within the entire mix. The problem comes after the mastering. Most commercial mixes i notice is that those spikes are flattened out when in chorus with the instruments, so there's actually no big spikes coming out and...

There ridiculously expensive but do they really matters? Not to mention, you need a core PCI card or an expansion card, that connects to an audio interface. Both are separately expensive, whats the deal with this Protool Guys? cmon How would a quality from 24/96 in a $500 Motu or Presonus...

Hi guys, im having hard time choosing these audio interfaces that ive found. One of my criteria is it should be just a pretty straight forward audio interface 24/96. No added features like onboard fx,eq or comp, no built in control surface, or any added stuff, just audio interface with at least...

Hi guys, does anybody have an idea how they record guitar tracks especially distortion in a commercial rock music like Green day, Blink 182, or Good Charlotte? Did they use traditional miced cab/amp, or guitar through Di through a guitar softwares? How do they do it nowadays in a computer era?

Hi guys, Im looking at this expensive Motu 24 I/O audio interface. All input are 1/4 TRS analog. I know it's expensive, but does that mean I still need mic preamp for my condenser mic and DI box for my guitars? It only says 1/4 TRS analog, nothing that says instrument input or mic input...

Let say no limit on the budget. If I can buy anything up to the high end alternatively besides the Digi system. What would be a great chain of core hardwares, audio interface and AD/DA converters?

Hi I'm not a MAC fan, so I just need an idea if there's someone using a recording system besides the MAC/Protools/Digidesign squad. I mean it should be matched using PC, not MAC, not Protools, nor Digidesign HD Accel, nor Digidesign Control Surfaces. Anything that will beat that most used system...

Hi guys, Ive notice that instruments in a commercial music sounds thinner than what we heard from our project in the recording software. Is that something from exporting process or I can just do it from EQ? or maybe it can be the hardware like the audio interface. I notice that when I switched...

you need a better sound card with zero latency. on board are pain in the ass.....If your going to use your laptop, there are lots of affordable one like M-Audio fast track, mobilepre USB or transit where you connect it thru USB.
