    whats the best mic in a $300 dollar price range?

    The answer would probably depend upon the kind of stuff you were recording. I agree with the dynmic selection of the sennheiser, but wouldn't you think with a budget like that, he would be much better off with a sm-57 and a B1 or something like that. That would cover just about all angles of...

    Omni Studio w/ Delta 66 on eBay? Good Deal?

    I sold the same thing on ebay not long ago and the final price was somewhere around $325. It's $400 new, so I don't think, assuming it's in good condition, it would go for anywhere below $300 Brandon

    Studio Project B1 Recording...

    Robert- Did you double track the vocals during the chorus. It has the elliott smith sound to it and i know he does a lot of that. If you did, what kind of panning and processing did you use for them. Brandon

    Hardy M-1---clean?

    Steve-I already have an RNP and Sytek with the burr browns. I was just curious about the difference and what it can be compared to. for that thick sound, i plan on getting a great river in the near future. I guess i was more concerned with whether the combination of the sytek and the RNP...

    dynamic mic ?

    I'm looking to add another dynamic mic to my collection. The dynamics I currently have are 57, 58, d112, RS tom mic. I'm looking to add another mic mainly for electric guitar cabinet micing and drum uses (kick, tom, etc.) It's between MD-421II or RE-20. A lot of people like the RE-20 on...

    Hardy M-1---clean?

    The mic pres everyone seems to push lately are the RNP and Grace 101. The hardy never seems to fit into a specific category when brought up. It gets lumped in the "neve"-like pres and the clean group as well. So which it? I noticed it definitely doens't have as much body as the great river...

    Getting a warm bass drum sound?

    How common is drum triggering in rock music? I downloaded the demo of that program chess posted and the bass drum sounded great. If only i could get a similar sound while recording. I'm wondering how many records actually have triggered bass drums and i never knew it. Do people trigger is...

    Getting a warm bass drum sound?

    I listen to mostly rock stuff and one thing that always jumps out at me is the quality of the bass drum. there are some records that shine in this area and others that don't come close. My question is how do you get a really warm punchy bass drum sound? To me, the sound is much like the...

    indie/experiemental mp3s

    Thanks everyone for the comments. the vox on track 3 were buried intentionally. They are not at all the focus. Track 6 is much more the place where vox are featured more or less. I guess we sort of take a weird angle on things. I haven't heard about the cymbals too loud before, but could...

    indie/experiemental mp3s

    Chris, I'm monitoring with a pair of paradigm monitors. It didn't sound that bad to me when i was doing it. The texture of the bass drum compared to the others is alot different, as i used more room mics in the drum mix on that song. What did you hear in the car? I know it will punch the...

    chris, thanks for the comments. You're welcome to say whatever, I won't get defensive about it. We all write our own music and have our own styles. most of your comments seemed to be about the fact that you thought everything was too long. Might i add that i guess that's part of the style...

    Formatting

    Caleb- When you book from the cd to install, the process will reformat the disk if you do a new installation of windows. There's no way to format the drive and keep windows, so if you really need to format, just continue the windows installation process when the disk starts up. It'll get the...

    Any advice about:Sonic Maximizers,Aural exciters.do i need them,

    I'm sure if this stays around long enough, everyone will say the same thing. That is...if you record everything properly in the first place, you wouldn't need the exciter. If you're not getting the sound you want from your recordings, look into improving mic placement, maybe some gear, but...

    Best Audio Interface?

    swede-along with the great drivers and the low latency the converters are way better. Call any large, reputable store and get a personal opinion about rme vs. delta. I researched this decision for over 6 months and although you have to take people's opinions with a grain of salt, you can...
