Several times I've successfully peeled the track away from a vocal by lining up their recording with the original backing track then phase inverting just the backing track. It's even worked if their recording was a mono mixdown leaving just a trace of the backing track portion of their...

Looking for something basic that will let my G7 Power Android phone work like a basic stereo recorder. Record, store the file to an SD card, simple retrieval/playback. I tried Bandlab but it seems cumbersome and still haven't found where it stores the files. It's like they went out of their way...

I need to have a way to monitor myself and a mixer facilitates that.

Studio. The thing is ideally I'd like to to avoid redundancy of components - I've already got phantom power on my Studio Projects VTB-1 pre's.

Nothing unusual, just want to hear myself and the mix with ability to balance the two. Thanks - I'll check them out. I see it's also missing any EQ, so it might be a bit too minimalist.

Looking for recommendations for a basic mixer for a headphone mix. Really only need a 2 channel - for a setup like this: Would you consider the Yamaha mixer in the video to be as good as anything? Is there something you like better? Thanks!

A typical smoker spends a couple of grand a year or more to poison themselves while subsidizing the private school tuition of tobacco executives' kids so while the mic is stupid it's not the most irrational thing people spend money on.

I've seen demos of Gigastudio that sounded as good as I've ever heard simulated instruments sound. But what happened to it? I gather Tascam just stopped supporting it, stopped offering it for sale. Was it not profitable?

I was reading the Wikipedia article about Paul Simon's song "You Can Call Me Al". At some point there's the quoted paragraph below. What would "tape delays" have to do with making vocals more clear for mixing purposes? "After the song's completion, it was mixed at The Hit Factory alongside the...

Sure just like Amway and various MLM companies having been touted as "the future of shopping" - lol. Just another outlet filling bandwidth with meaningless content.

I became aware of them whatever they are because a well-known commentator uses them for their broadcasts and am looking for input about them as per my query. So, strictly "based on a photo", no. The Sony 1000's look similar but I can't find a pair that looks exactly like those in the photo -...

Equalization aka EQ. Muddiness is in lower frequencies. See the thread above where he's asking about his mix. I heard some raw pre-mastering mixes a friend had recorded in a Nashville studio by some of the same people who record the stars. They sounded dull, muddy, instruments somewhat...

Strictly speaking the mix sounds decent, sounds like you used good gear. I'd say you did a good job on the overall balance of the respective elements. You specifically asked about the mix - of course mixing is different than mastering. It needs tweaking. I played with it a little in...

Can you ID these? Any experience, opinions? Thanks

Does anyone make a software graphic EQ say 10, 20 or more bands where each individual band can be independently panned? I.e. imagine a typical graphic EQ where under each band slider is a pan control.

I'm not familiar with the Blue Spark. My experience with the MXL 990 is that it's a heck of a bang/buck. I got a pair on sale for around $40 each some years back and found they work great on horns. And everything else. Here's a short sample of some things I've used a 990 on. Mine is a cabled...

Any of them. If you record in a good room and have your stuff together as far as mixing and mastering any of them should work.

1965 orchestral recording session - what's the box behind the conductor?

Partly sound, partly curiosity. I'm very sure the performance you're seeing is the performance you're hearing - I've never seen a lip-sync that precise. Articulations, breath, vibrato matching her jaw and throat, etc. - everything says "live". I'm familiar with this particular singer's work -...

I think you're right - I wonder if they blacked in the little button for video purposes.
