First reaction, wow your not afraid of reverb are you ? :) The vocals are a little back in the mix, I think your reverb is set a little too long, and the reverb trail sorta clouds things a bit too much. Laser thingy would be cooler if you automated it to pan around from side to side. Kick and...

I forgot to add... Don't EQ with tracks solo'd. Every track effects the others. I think it's best to start off with kick, snare, and bass in a typical rock situation, and get that sounding great then add in overheads and the rest of the drums.. Once you get a solid rythmn section the rest will...

EQing uses selective phase cancellation to cut frequencies.... The more you EQ the more you risk screwing up your phase. You should try your best to get your sounds to tape, but if you have to EQ then cutting is your best option because you're taking away the bad, not adding something that...

Getting a good sounding analogue set up is going to cost alot more then then a comparable digital setup. Tape itself is quite expensive these days. As far as what is better? Well they are completely different. Mixing with a reel to reel and a big console is alot of fun, but as far as editing...

Or maybe he just wants to keep it spam free.

Probably to mixdown to a dat machine among other things.

AKG C141 B/ULS. If you wan't versitility this is the way to go. I find it doesn't add too much colour, which is something you want in a workhorse mic. Also the switchable polar patterns, adjustable pads, and bass roll offs are a great feature.

Turning up the fader shouldnt effect how hot your signal is being recorded.

I agree with both of you. Learning any instrument will help you write music. Learning musical theroy will help you write music. I've seen people with great ears and no musical training who can make good beats, but I've also seen professional musicians with great ears who can make great beats.

Plug the mic in then let the phantom charge up. Then turn the phantom off and wait atleast a minute before you unplug.

Yeah the U87 i have experience is from the 80s and I do find it to be shrill at times, but I haven't gotten the chance to use it with a great pre yet.

The U87 is a great mic. But it's not good on everything. It seems to be quite shrill on some voices while full on others. I really like it as a room mic, and for micing bass cabinets. As far as being an all purpose LDC, probably not, but you definately wouldn't regret having one.

Bump... Interested in trades.

I have a line 6 pod XT for sale here, in next to new condition with all the orignal packaging. It's sitting here being unused in my studio and it needs a new home. Ships from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.... Asking $250 CAD Dollars. Thanks.

The SM 57 is a great mic if used on the proper source. I find it strange that you owned a U-87 before you even knew what an SM 57 sounded like.

The 441 is probably one of my all time favourites on guitar cabs.

Short answer: No Slightly less short anwser: Check out amplitude, its a amplifier modeling pluging and they have a demo version and a free version online...

I recorded and mixed this tune over a month ago, but just got it onto my computer. Tell me what you guys think. It's called Talking aint Free by The Upsides (The first song on that page). http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=380545

Did the install program detect your inspire?

Definately a U 87... Wait, what?
