I think the Point simply is compression... I never happened to get bass tracks recorded that wouldn't be bouncing out and hiding in the mix at certain times unless I used heavy compression on the bass... I often use a medium Ratio with a very high (i.e. low - how ever you wanna call it)...

...back to the original question: IMHO, it can make quite a difference, but it may be not as obvious as you think, as you will probably hear more of the room/mic/someothershit Problems that are in the recording. I am in the lucky Situation of having had the possibility of buying a mid-expensive...

An idea: you might try to use a 'deessing' Approach. Find a narrow EQ band that holds the noise (or some if you have a strange fan). Drop These bands completely. Subtract the result from the original voice (by doing a Phase Inversion). You now should have two tracks: one containing only the...

Some of the worst mixes I ever heard did a bus compression on Background voices panned. It gave a completely undefined Stereo Image (as the singer sang quite exactly) cause every time one voice was a Little louder, the other one was being ducked. When listening to the mix over headphones, I had...

Sorry, I don't wanna be impolite or so, but how do you know? Most of my mixing Problems were in fact recording Problems... (well... almost :D )

If you wanna understand how it works: copy Stereo track to double mono. Copy the Left track with Phase Inversion on (opposite sign to track). (R+L)*-6dB -> Center Information Track; (R-L)*-6dB -> side Information Track. Now do your EQing, and blablabla... Then copy Center Information track...

roflmfao!

Congrats! BTW: I like your Sound on SoundCloud! The song Gay Boy somehow reminds me of some NOFX stuff (though the gits are not that Palm muted)... While 'A punk Looks at 40' has something of the 'Neue Deutsche Welle' that was great over here in the 80ies... (when I grew up) ...and Hallelujah...

then you have a BIG house :D

don't marry, then, and don't have kids that have to go to school ;)

...yep THAT'S TRUE ...

...until you have to record at 3am in an Apartment :D

OK that makes a different Story then... (in my understanding, something like Tech21 and similar stuff are analog sims...) Which leaves as the most important point for ME the quiet recordings... And IMHO the most important Point for a lot of People is the 'bad feeling' when recording with a...

You can't even hear what your voice sounds like. A cheap chinese big diaphragm condenser. With a Pop filter and some el cheapo ART MP tube pre will get you much further. The voice somehow sounded as if you were doing a Hand Job ;) with a dynamic -> buy a mic stand (otherwise: send me a Foto of...

Well, personally, I use some different things that I'm sure, won't be so easy to have with real amps (well it may be with pedals, but that is sim, too). The class A distortion of my Tech21 double drive 3X blended with a tad of A/B is a very unique glassy Sound, that I like a lot on some...

Sorry, but I don't give too much on whether it is like real, worse or even better... When using sims, you have LOADS of possibilities of chossing a sound that is approximatly the sound you want/need. I don't have that many different amps to have these sounds. I don't have the time to constanly...

I cannot tell you sth on the other Recorders, but I often use a H4n and ist qualtity is really good. Even if the Sound is quite loud (rehearsal room), you still can OK recordings. You can Setup the Thing for different mic angles (though that didn't Change much in the rehearsal). It has got some...

Thank you SOOO much for this one; but the idea of getting 32-Bit in a TL074 is stellar! Now I finally understand why there never was a TL078 series! It was not the housing needing too many pins --- 64 Bits weren't available at that time!

IMHO, the best tip is to get aquainted to your new gear. Most often the added high end of the signals recorded (and maybe the distortions that add further hihg end) together with the missing cheap tape hiss causes the impression of less warmth. It would be ridiculous to add 2000$ of gear to your...

I'd first clean everything up in your tracks. This means: unwanted noises a.s.o. then cut away what is definitely not needed in terms of frequencies (voices don't go down to 50 Hz!). I prefer filters to EQ there for most cases, but if you cut with EQ, then it is likely to cut stronger. Then try...
