    Recording classical music

    As I am just a home hobbist I have very few mics. Used a TLM 102 and it had an AT2035 that I was moving around to find different spots. Tonight I used the 102 and an audix mic that he had (SDC) and did the M/S setup. I have an AKG C214 (which is much more suited to this type of music) but I...

    Recording classical music

    This is a sample of what I got last night. Nothing has been done to the file except for exporting to mp3. No eq, reverb, comp, etc. I will happily take any criticism, help, or other info. Edit: yes I do hear the clicking sound, I am going to have to troubleshoot that tonight. This is all...

    Recording classical music

    I was just reading up on the M/S technique and think I will give that a try. I will get about an hour of play time tonight before the performance so I'm going to do a few more tests. Thanks for all the tips and help

    Recording classical music

    Yeah, I have pretty open access to the space but I don't have the instruments and singers in there so that I can place the mics and listen. It's a huge learning curve here (or it feels like it anyway), I'm used to recording one or two guys in my house now I'm in a performance hall with...

    Recording classical music

    ash you could be right there, I'm definitely not arguing there. I'm doing this for friends, we don't have anyone local that records this style of music and they have to get someone from Texas. The client is willing to give me some room to learn in exchange for that so I'm excited to do it. When...

    Recording classical music

    It's a performance hall, so it's got a great sound to me. The highs are a little bright in the room at certain points but otherwise the room sounds nice.

    Recording classical music

    I tried a few different things last night. He keeps telling me he wants to hear the room. So I setup a room mic about 25ft back from the stage. I setup 2 condensers in front of the orchestra then 4 sdc behind the brass in front of the choir. I recorded all of that, then I recorded one with just...

    Recording classical music

    I have gotten a few jobs lately to record local orchestra and choirs. The people I'm working with are looking for a very different sound than I am used to. They want to hear the room in the performance hall. Right now I am trying to record about a 20 piece orchestra and 40 piece choir...

    Rate my wife's singing?? See link.

    I agree with the others, it sounds like she has a nice voice but now she needs to put in the work. No matter what anyone says you don't come out of the womb belting it like Amy Lee. Everytime she gets to the end of a note it falls off and shakes. She needs to learn how to breath properly and...

    "Paranoid Android" Radiohead cover - looking for a singer.

    I'm not giving up just yet haha. However if you ever want to work on more covers and it's anything in my wheel house singing wise, I'd love to do more with you. Your playing and mixing is fantastic. I'm usually more of a folk/pop/singer songwriter type style (I can link my stuff if you want to...

    "Paranoid Android" Radiohead cover - looking for a singer.

    I'm still working on mine. This is no easy song to sing (for me at least).. Honestly I'm not sure that I will be able to.. I haven't given up yet though. I'm just practicing it now and we'll see if I can pull it off. **Edit to add: The track is very well done though, I am enjoying it

    Need a singer (m/f) to sing on a Mr. Big cover

    I wish I could do this one justice, it's a great recording you've made but my voice just doesn't fit the song unfortunately.

    Yeah send it over, I will give it a try. You can upload to dropbox or something and just PM me with a link. I will send back a completely dry vocal.

    Singing Feedback Easy

    I do agree with the above, what I could hear you have a great voice (not that you can't work on some things). To get recording depending on budget check out the newbie section. Those guys do a pretty good job of keeping up with that's out currently, what's available for different price ranges...

    Critique Me? (Rap)

    I agree with Schwarz. All in all it's a pretty decent sound, your delivery is pretty good.

    Need a singer (m/f) to sing on a Mr. Big cover

    I listen to a lot of James Taylor, in my opinion that's as good as it gets.

    New song - Never Ever (mostly acoustic)

    I like the tune mjb, definitely more my style. The vocals sound pretty far out in parts (some of the doubling) but that could be what you're going for. The guitar sounds nice to me.

    Looking for collaborators

    Sent you a PM, I'm a singer and always looking for musicians to work with. I'm a crappy musician, but a decent singer.
