I have been looking around on this topic for a bit but have nothing that addresses my set up specifically. I have been thinking about buying a MOTU 2408 mkII for a while but have recently started eyeing the Layla 24 bit thingy. It is lots cheaper. I am using Samplitude 6.0 producer w/ a 550...

I think its that greased Singer and his Christ posing and SUPER OVER INFLATED SELF IMAGE that channels into each drum hit and makes it all sound really good. Or that the drummer is really short like a small troll and is constantly pissed about it so he hits his drums nice and hard. Or maybe...

Mr. Rickles! Please your jokes are so funny- they make me weep...Literally!

There really is no place for puns that stinky on this tread you oughta be ashmed of yourself. Say Bdgr you sure have had a lot of Dogs...

Dogs are in mono aren't they?

Hey the numbers dont lie! mathmatically speaking, there are more mono tracks in prison than other kinds of tracks. But is that just because mono tracks are convicted more often or that they are committing propotionally more crimes. My point is: which came first the chicken or the egg. You dig?

Thats what I thought. I could be making things more difficult than they need to be. But, it seems that people make a definite distinction between dual mono and stereo tracks. Twonk

But what separates a dual mono from a stereo recording?

Ooops this was supposed be part of the Stereo Micing thread But thanks for clearing that up for me!

But what separates a dual mono from a stereo recording?

Ok I am not a newbie persay this thread will further illustrate my ignorance. What exactly is Stereo Recording? How do I get one? If I record a source, lets say a pair of congas w/ two of the same kind of mic, to two individual mono tracks and then pan them L-R...is that stereo? Or just to...

Little Dog yer a real peach! Now, would I mic the front of an upright (side facing player) in approximatly the same fashion? Thanks for the info.

I would love some advice on good micing technique for piano. I am about to finish a demo for my band and we have access to one of two pianos: An upright, not one of the great big ones but pretty big (console?) or A Yamaha baby grand. both of them are in pretty big rooms so taking advantage...

So we went back and forth for a long time trying different heads and different beaters ( all the while, I new that if we just used the really crappy Whithall it would sound right, but I wanted to let him exhaust every option before insisting that we simply use the shitty kick) A lot of the...

OkeyDokey, I will try your suggestions. And report back on Thanks again Shailat

Oh yes, sorry, uuummmmmm, yes there is a blanket in both kicks, not totally mushed up against the heads but just enough to control the excess ring. Gotcha, no compression to tape (I should be more clear) er, PC. Ahhhite Shailat-lay it on me brutha! (and thank you in advance) Twonk

Yeah, his foot is really the issue, like I said he is a great drummer but he is really in that finessed jazz mode all the time. Its almost like he literally does not understand what I'm saying when I say "can you try laying into a bit more?" I thought about compressing the signal but I still...

Yeah I had the sme thing going on this is what I did(some of it may be obvious to you). 1)Made sure that the recording software and the ADAT are are at the same sample rate (they werent when I first tried this set up and, DUH!!, nothing worked, go figure) 2) Set the ADAT Clock to DIG, I...

So, uuuuuhhhh..... I have been at this for about 4 years now, I have recorded my fair share of kick drums. Some were really amazing drummers playing bad kits some were bad drummers playing amazing kits. Either way I have literally never had a problem recording a kick drum. Even if it was a...
