I don't know about the KRKs, but ifit's 250 mic vs 250 moitors and you already have some kind of minotrs, I'd say the mic. You can get a half decent mic to round out your collection but the moitor upgrade may not be as significant.
If you had a few more bucks rounded up I'd say the monitors...
ahh, I get it. You probalby just aren't going to be able to capture 16 bit if you're sending the delta a 24 bit digital signal in the first place. Even if it converts it on the fly I can't see why it would add anything.
your software should request which word length from the interface. What the delta drivers do I've no idea, but I can't really see why they would dither the signal.
To start with a 57 on the cab is a bit of a myth, or at least it's not easy, you don't just hang a 57 there and get a great sound. Have fun if you're running through a cheap shitty pre.
Then the sound at your speaker can be different than the sound in your room, it probalby has less treble...
Is he summing the waves himself or using channels of direct sound. Their mixer might be doing some back end volume adjusted if the latter. If he is just adding the two wave together himself he shouldn't hear any noticable drop in volume.
You don't get any new frequencies AFIIK when summing...
updated list, I now have
sm57
spb1
Apex 210
Pretty atypical entry level home rec set of weapons. Nothing really great for vocals though, which will probably be my first real (or at least expensive) mic.
lol
surrounded by absorbers sounds like the plan. I get a nice airy quality around 4 inches or so but the room gets the best of the track so I usually put mine pretty close and roll off the bass as required
UNless the sound of the ribbon was more what you are after I"d go sm57. It's tough to use as a vocal mic (well, for me anyhow) but the overall quality of the sound is a bit higher than the cheap ribbon mics IMO. I've got an Apex 210 which is light years ahead of my 57 on the Marshall when...
That's what I'm doing. Don't blame me if this short ciruits your gear, but I'm currently running my amp mic straight into the board, no pre. If you have a balanced input and the source in loud it could actually work pretty good. I'm living with a bit of a noise floor right now, I'll still...
I think Cyrokk is on the right track. First of all the jcm900 probably sounds like ass turned down, and I'm guessing your room sounds like ass with the amp cranked, so you're fucked either way.
Get what tone you can at a lower volume and take the room out of the equation, then go from there...
Hey Chris,
I think it sounds pretty darned good, maybe a little scooped, deep bass and lots of top end. I'd fiddle with the reverb on the vocals to try and work some of the high mids out of the mix. Remember I have no clue what I'm talking about, but that's what I heear :)
hmmmm...kind of sticks out. It's not that bad but I know what you mean. Nice playing btw.
To start with it's too loud at times.. The tone is different from the rest of the mix somehow, everything else is so mellow. My first instinct is to suggest setting it back with some reverb, but that...
I went from a cheap barringer hixer to a dmp3. The dmp3 was a step up for sure. Still, whereas the cheap mixer was too muddy, the dmp3 is too crisp and clean. I"m starting to want something better, especially to track my guitar amp.
late model 50 watt Marshall jcm800 channel switcher, 4210 has '83 etched on the chassis somewhere. One of the earlier circuits with some diodes in there.
