    Hip Hop mix, feedback is appreciated :)

    Thanks for the feedback Andrew. Unfortunately this was a two-track I had to mix vocals over. Whereas the other tracks youre hearing on SoundCloud are things I mixed. The 2 track was way bass-heavy in my opinion and muddy, so i eqd it and I tried to accentuate the transients and set the vocals...

Looking for constructive criticism on mix, the way vocals sit in the mix... overall presence, energy etc.. Let me know...

    Great River NV1 or Mini-me? I'm torn!

    ms1b seems too good to be true.. You're comparing it to the john hardy and the rnp and basically to the great river and the mini-me.. Seems crazy.. Have I been out of the loop too long? or are you indeed a crazy person? lol... I mean that with the utmost respect of course. But seriously, I can...

I've heard the Nv1 has gets aggressivve when you push it.. which sounds great for radio imaging stuf.. Anyway, I'm currently using a groove tubes brick and a joemeek vc6q. Both i like for...

    Best Voiceover pre

    I've been using a GT brick and the thing is adding a bit too much filth... I need another option and I was aiming for something sterile. The top of the budget is $500. I've read good things a out the DMP and the Studio Projects VTB1.. But they seems so inexpensive, I'm leary. Are they as good...

    Studio Projects B3 or CAD M179?

    I'm looking to buy 2 mics for stereo location & ambient recording.. I also considered the new stereo MXL V67 but I'd prefer the ability to space them out more. Having switchable patterns is a must, & a roll off is preferred.. I originally thought the way to go would be SDC's but Jon at naiant...

    Converter Question

    Thanks Thanks bro! I've checked this forum alot and have always respected your opinions.. I do a fair amount of soundscape work.. CSI miami & some stuff for MTV/Bunim-murray... So yeah, I definitely want to be sure my sound is best it can be... Are RME/Lucid &others just as good as the apogee?

    Converter Question

    I'm not sure which forum category this belongs in... But I read somewhere that the quality of a mic pre is most evident when one upgrades to quality converters, so here I am. :) I use a digi002 and for pre's I use the brick, a joemeek vc6q and of course the onboard 002 (focusrites?).. Anyway...

    BLUE mic cables - Blueberry, Cranberry, Kiwi

    . Humbuckermusic.com has the kiwi cables for 29.50, cheaper than the cranberries! Jake over there told me they buy them by the boatload & get killer pricing. I have a few of the kiwis.. One died on me, the rest are still kickin and sound good. Good luck.

    Tampa Or GT Brick Mic Pre? I'm torn...

    . Thanks... Chessrock, yeah, I don't REALLY need a compressor or convertor... But if the mic pre is as nice, then why not get the extra stuff I figured...? But I know in my heart that theres no such thing as a free lunch, so I'm leaning toward the brick... I'd like the option of a tube path...

    Tampa Or GT Brick Mic Pre? I'm torn...

    M-Audio Tampa or GT Brick? Or feel free to hip me to something else in the same range... I've read beaming reviews of both.. Any useful opinions? I record... 95% Vocals - 5% Live instruments... 90% Male vox - 10% Female... 95% Hip Hop - 5% Rock... Other pres I have here are Joemeek vc6q...

    Wall plates in booth?

    I have a decent booth & I'm currently running the mic & headphone cables under the doors.. Which sucks because A) It looks crappy & B) people trip over them.. I'd like to put xlr & 1/4" wall plates in, (or a combo plate) but I'm wondering if this is going to effect the integrity of my signal...

    Using 3 Sets Of Monitors

    I have one amp (Alesis ra150) and 3 sets of monitors, (Event 20/20, Yamaha ns10, Auralex cubes). I also have a monster cable speaker selector. Problem is, when I switch to my events, they are much lower in volume to the ns10s.. I know nothing about "ohms" or "bridging".. Why is this...
