that "distorted but clean" sound you get is the sound of mid 90's Mesa rectifier amps. Its a sound very hard to duplicate with any other amp. Those amps sound amazing on tape... even heavily distorted they still have so much tonal definition.
ehh... I'd rather be balanced.. it says that the direct outs are a half-jacked TRS.... The biggest reason I bought the 1010 instead of the 1010LT is because the all the 1010's channels are fully balanced.
anybody have any opinions about the Nady PRA-8? As of now, I'm forced to be a cheap bastard, and if its halfway decent, I'll probably pick it up... just intrested to know what the rest of ya'll think of it. I'd probably ony use it to track drums... I'd track guitars, vocals, bass with a nicer pre.
I would REALLY like to go mixerless, and just use the mixer in cubase. If I can get away with not using a mixer for a monitor mix, that would be nice (less to color the sound). Anybody have a cheap s/pdif D/A converter they prefer most?
so basically I could get away with just a 2 channel board then... as long as it has two aux sends on each channel. correct? I could just get one of those little berringer or midiman one's for cheap.
I've got a Delta 1010 in the mail right now. I'm contemplating on how my monitoring set-up will work. I'm gonna need 2 sets of main L/R outs. One going to my powered monitors, the other going to the headphone amp. Does anyone know if there is a way to route 2 main stereo mixes out of the outputs...
with the bass drum, they usually dip out 400-800 Hz to eliminate that crappy cardboard sound (VERY important). Depending on the drum they would search for the frequency between 2.5-10K that provides attack, and boost it. That click is usually found somewhere above 5K (boost it). Like someone...
yeah, I guess he coulda done it with room mics placed fairly far away from the kit... It sounds like there's only 1 or 2 reflections though. btw I meant 100-200ms. 10-20 would give you a chorus effect. I also hear the effect on the distorted guitars though. Room mics on the guitars? sure, why not?
Yeah man, totally. The drum sound on In Utero is fuckin' crazy! HUGE sounding. Credit that to Steve Albini. I love the sound and feel of that whole album in general. It sounds so raw for such a major release and it fit Nirvana's style so well.... Much more than Nevermind did. If you notice...
hey guys... I'm a novice drummer and I'm gonna be replacing my top and bottom head on my snare as well as my chains (they've stretched badly over the years) on my 14 inch steel tama rockstar snare. I was wondering what kind of heads to get. I'm looking for a snare sound that projects loudly...
sorry it took so long to reply.. I've been pretty busy.. If its plugged directly into your sound card, I would guess you would go into control pannel - multimedia - MIDI tab and select your controller... I've never done this before so I'm not sure how you would get the system to recognise that...
