whats wrong with your recordings seems like a obvious question.... that being said an akg414 is a well respected vocal/oh/anything microphone. what about a "tooob' microphone appeals to you?

additionally the kick drum sounds a bit like a tom thats been tuned to high, it may work for jazzy stuff but for the beats your playing it need to be much lower dont worry, you should hear the first drums i recorded:eek:

its actually a harmoniser in her vocal fx box, she played in 4-5 note chords and it could only harmonise 3 i think so it chose randomly. cant remember where i read that, but thats it. edit: i do, it was on a tv show about that album on bbc3

tbh i think its another forum to join and another password to remember. as it is the mp3 clinics realtively quiet with comments but its good enough, and lightning mp3 is handy and i think the mp3 drop is a good test of a mix

whoops, silly mistake! i think we will use the akg 451's, they seem pretty decent. Andy - I agree whole heartedly, ill prob get there with another person who is helping me earlier and have everything cabled and put on stands ready to be positioned before anyone else gets there (i might get the...

thank you robert, im seeing this as more of a learning opportunity and if i get even one decent track out of it i will be happy. any more?

noone has anything to say? it must be a good plan!

oh, we can only use it for one night (probably setup at 5pm, tear down at 1pm) detatched house so it shouldnt be a problem :p and were hoping to do 4-5 songs. Mixing at a later date

Ive got use of my parents house so i can do a recording :cool: The band: 2 Guitarist that sing Bass Drums www.myspace.com/electricfurs - For sound reference The rooms: Theres 3 carpeted bedrooms and one with wooden floors and high vaulted ceiling upstairs. Theres a living room with wooden...

bob katz's mastering audio is a good read, but possibly get it from a library for a while rather than buy it (ive only read my copy fully two times) you could look at "mix it like a record", its got a great reputation and if youve got a form of protools its especially useful

good music :) i would guess buying an entry level recording soundcard (maudio, behringer, presonous) and some monitors would sort you out a LOT. i have to point out that taking a mono output and putting it on a stereo track is doing nothing.

get a real drummer, or turn down the drums at least. is this waiting for vocals or something else? it doesnt strike me as a song.

VU meters are not great, give me a PPM over a VU anyday

18. Getting better, pretty hard being able to record when your in halls:(

and you could di that line 6 amp, the speakers are really nothing special in those amps so you could get away with it.

Im a first year on the Tonmeister course at the University of Surrey,UK. Modules that i have done this term include electronics (and not simple electronics i assure you), acoustics, audio signal processing (maths with practical uses) and audio engineering (modulation, analog recording, digital...

haha, that made me laugh "we have the top of the range binaural microphones for low low prices, just call 555-034 to make professional recordings on amateur budgets. I dont advertise on this board ;) "

not neccesarily Ive found that when drummers have headphones on they hit cymbals harder and drums softer due to hf loss, recently ive sent high passed overheads back into the headphones, it seems to work pretty well ukpete, if you have a pair of earbuds with the rubber bits that go into the ear...

Well, honestly it sounds like te drums are 10m behind the band who are 10m away already. How did you mic this and how good is the isolation? To be honest the sounds sound okay, just far away. Brightening them up and some good compression will bring them forward a little
