What interface are you using? Have you run the ASIO setup? Are you able to use audacity to record? .

+1 on Superbaby have had one for a couple years. Loves pedals too.

I have worked on old desks and new desks. The craftsmanship of older/analog stuff is wonderful but to state that modern high end is poor by comparison is rubbish.

Not to start a flame war but a well done pcb is every bit as good as a ptp. Period. PTP is easier to work on to "Mod" etc. Go open up an Amek, SSl or the like and tell me that an old console is better. Yep I said that. I bet the computers we are using is not PTP. :)

You are correct sir! You know that the smallest movement of the mic capsule in close mic situations can make a HUGE difference. Since I have a pretty average room I close mic a lot; hence I have to tweak away to get distance. I do use a room mic with appropriate distance (phase stuff) and do...

Hey Greg, I was not trying to de-rail the guy by encouraging verb, just thought if is using verb he should try that. Good mic tech is really where it is at. Good sounding room with ambient mic and close mic no need for verb. Slap a 57 in front of the cab and it is in your face!.

If you are using reverb you may try using mono reverb returns panned to the same location as the dry signal. Reverb and delay will push the source back so be careful. Washing out gtr's with verb is a sure fire way to make things distant. Multiple takes of the same passage will thicken things up...

Post up some stuff! Welcome back. Glad to see another Southerner on the board. Been to S-port so many times over the years. Good place here. I find that my non-music/engineer fellows are my best sounding boards for critique.

Do not plug a ribbon mic into a phantom powered jack. (there are exceptions but)

Ooh so interested in this topic. I do a bit of DIY (pedals, amps general junk). I have an old MXL 990 that is a good platform for some modding. Even if I screw it up it will not impact pocket too hard. Let me search for a couple of the links (that you prob. have found). I am so on board with...

Dedicated Reaper fan here. I know people get tired of hearing that but the software works well. I sometimes run 80 to 100 plugs without a problem. (big projects) I do get a hiccup on occasion. Save is my friend. So what it if it is inexpensive? I have had more problems with protools (HD) than I...

Thanks guys, sorry for the late response. Maybe fortune will shine on me and I can up my budget!. I have listened to the Dynaudio before and they were pretty good (good room helps). My friend has a pair of Adams, like those too. I want to get something useful for the $$. My wharfies are not that...

Try Sonimus EQ. Free. A very cool Pultec/api style hybrid. Lots of color there.

Sounds like you got your head wrapped around the "mechanics, my personal LOL" of the issue as to 24/32 bit depth stuff. Could it be the LAN conx? Over my head. When I had a MOTU interface I could not get the damn thing working properly. The company was kind enough to replace it twice! Bad chip...

Not to be a smart ass but can you hear the difference between 44.1 and 96k? Really? (I do not want to get into a you know what match about sample rates) Are you tracking and seeking low latency by shrinking buffer size? If you insist on high sample rates (which is fine by me) and increased bit...

Grew up next to a municipal airport. Holy crap, was that a pain when my cranked 200 watt Sunn coliseum Lead amp blasted, " Roger ok for approach" at 140 db. (teenager guitar idiocy).

See the Harvey Gerst cheap mic sticky. Good luck and happy music making.

The duplicate/harmony vox is killing it. Mute it out except when needed for impact. Overall the mix sounds kinda thin. My.02 as this style is not where my head is at. Are you using lots of compression? Sounds that way to me. De-esser might d-spit the high end.

Hey polarity! you are in Jackson? Me too! Send me a P.M with your info. We prob know some of same folks. I am always looking to meet musicians/engineers/producers in this area. Back to OP, Reapitch will do the trick.

I am a Reaper Fan. Good Software and very reasonably priced. Wavelab is very nice but $$ Record in stereo and mono for location sound. Perhaps a very directional (shotgun) microphone and wind sock too. If you get the H2n or H4n post about your results as that is on my to buy list. More later.
