I have noticed that a lot of people when record drums record the room and this gives a lot of punch and fullness to the snare drum. I would like to get this sound but I am new to recording. There are a lot of mixed ideas on the internet how to get this done. I would like to get a basic idea how...

Thank you to every contribution! I think I have a starting point from where I can experiment.

I do not have any clue how to plan and track vocals other than record a single track and place it centered. Also, all I know is to add a harmony to the original track at lower volume.

Stop fighting! Enjoy you vacation. I plan on recording demos of the band, all the instruments recorded individually. I have an 8 channel interface and a number of microphones that should be enough to record all instruments. Nothing too fancy, just budget equipment, but should get the job...

Thanks a lot I think I got the answer I was looking for when recording guitars. What method should I try for the vocals?

I wish to record my band that is made of the following elements: Vocals, guitar, bass guitar and drums. I think I have a basic idea how to start recording the band such as basic selection of microphones and microphone placement. I did try this individually. I wish to understand how to mix the...

I cannot try the orange as the only supplier in my country closed. I think that this week ill try the new DSL40c and the DSL401 JCM2000. I would be mostly recording with it but I may also use it for a couple of gigs.

Hi I have a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe with an Eminence stock speaker and its cabinet with Celestion 70/80 speaker. The HRD has a nice clean sound but I do not like the distorted sound. I was looking at the Marshall DSL40C and the Orange OR15H. What would you recommend to increase the versatility...

ido1957, can you please post a link to the songs you mentioned?

ido1957, here the C214 is a third the price of the C414 XLII from the previews I've heard, the C214 is quite bright. Is it worth the investment or I would be better off with another microphone? BTyre2013, what I fear from the SM7b is the low output. If I crank it up would I be also making some...

metalj, samples are a cool tool to use, and I use them a lot. But I use these to create a song idea and send it to my band mates such that, the others can practice to it and understand what I had in mind so that would be able to elaborate and compliment my idea. In the past I went to a studio...

Richard monroe, so out of the bunch I listed you would suggest getting the baby bottle? The MXL is so cheap that I could get it too with another microphone. Raz Klinghoffer, the ADK custom TT mic is too expensive for my budget. ido1957, my budget is around 500 euro but I would stretch it of a...

I got the basic microphone setup to record my band and now I am looking to upgrade the vocal microphone. At the moment I have the following microphones: Shure SM57 Shure SM58 AKG D112 sE X1 Oktava mk012 (x2) Sennheiser e604 (x2) I was looking at the following microphones: Shure SM7b / Blue...

Purchase the Oktavas from a thrust-worthy online store and not form any site with multiple international sellers that you do not know their background as a lot of fakes are around. Here the oktavas are quite cheaper at about 300 euro a pair. You would get a better sound with no tom mics and good...

Not trying to see you the oktavas, but they can get joly modded too. And they have a modular design, thus, you can substitute capsules such that the mice becomes omni directional, figure of 8 or even LDC.

I would recommend not to cheap out on overheads as they will pickup a lot of detail from any instrument they are used on. you could record without spot mics on toms but you would still use overheads. Oktava are really nice ones. When shopping for condensors do not go for extremly bright ones at...

I would suggest oktava MK012 for overheads. Your setup looks very similar to mine. SM57 on snare drum D112 for bassdrum and e604 on toms. What you mentioned you got and I do not have is the SM7b. I am really interested in getting one. I have an sE R1 that most people suggested that I should get...

I was looking at DBX stuff like 166xs and 160a but there were a lot of mixed feelings about those and I have to buy from the internet so I'm not confident in buying those at the moment.

So what would be a nice mic pre to pair it up with the FMR RNC?

What is the difference between the FMR RNC and RNLA? What would you use which for?
