    Headphones for mixing

    I always mix on my hifi speakers. Far from ideal, I know. But I'm doing it for so long and keep comparing the mixes on all kinds of systems that I know how to use them. E few weeks ago I bought the Beyerdynamics DT 770 (closed) for my vocalists, drummers. Now I noticed they reveal a lot of...

    micing a drum set with 4 mics.

    I always use a three mice setup for my drums. The sm57 for snare, akg d112 for kick and the NT1 a feet in from of the kit. Does a good job for that budget setup!

    Soundproofing Question

    I agree with the above. The more weight, the better the insulation. If you go for double layer off drywall, glue it on crossed to avoid leaks between the plates. The trick is that the soundenergie is transferred into a heavy material that is not stiff. That's why the mounting on Resilient...

    Give your opinion - whats my weakest link?

    Blue Bear Sound => I understand that the converters define the whole sound in the digital recording. But do you think that a home recorder would find a huge difference between his current converters (Echo Mia) or something within reason (like a Motu) ? I don't think that within his moneyrange...

    Great article! Not bringing me much closer to the answer of my question, but still really interesting stuff! Funny that he uses the dynamic beyer88 mic. Maybe I'll experiment with dynamic/condensor combinations.

    nero can't read mixed down wave files

    found the solution For who had this problem to, upgrade to nero 6. I don't think it will solve the problem to the 24bit 48kh issue. Why would let nero dither it down and burn it as an audio cd? If it's a final mix and it's ready to put it on audio cd, just make it 16bit/44.100Herz in cubase...

    nero can't read mixed down wave files

    Anyone experienced the same problem? As I mix mij stuff down to a wave file it won't be recogniced by my Nero5 in audio-cd mode. The files works fine in all my audio apps. I found out that if I import in soundforge, adjust something (so it asks to rewrite the file), then it works fine in Nero...

    The definite Cubase/Audiointerface for mobile use thread

    Did some research of my own. Planning on buying a laptop with the specs you mentioned. The interface would be a firewire one. Heard to much bad stuff about the USB stuff. firewire is more versatile for the future I think. It left me with the same two devices. The Qauta fire 610 and the...

    Hi there Thomas, Thanks for the solution of my problem. This was the thing I was looking for. I never found it because I always keep my trackheight to low, so I couldn't see the icon. I just but them to time, reset the tempo and fixed them back to bars instead of time. Great! Many thanks...

    Adjusting tempo in a session moves the audiofiles out of relationship with eachother.

    Maybe someone can help me out. I'm in a cubase(sx2) session with the wrong tempo. Now I tried to set it right in fixed and track mode, but it keeps moving mij audiofiles. Seems like the start of each file is locked to the bar/timeline. So all audiofiles alter if I change the tempo. Everything...

    Goldwave/Mastering

    First of all, make sure your mix is as good as can be. Don't try to fix things in a mastering that you can fix in your mix. A mastering for me means just making the mix sound ok on soundsystems. Real mastering is different business I don't touch. I use in this order: A big EQ. Listen to anoying...
