?? Yes, I don't know the technical and extreme differences between a condensor mic and a dynamic mic - but what I do know is that condensor mics run on +48v phantom power and generally pick up greater detail than a dynamic mic... Plus, it wasn't until recently that I've actually had the chance...

I don't mind if you have to purchase them, just something... Please... heh....

With the availability of effects in multi tracking software (Adobe Audition, Pro Tools, etc.), is there much of a reason to still purchase other equipment? For example, Cool Edit Pro can easily add reverb, but I've still yet to figure out if these digital software effects stand up against the...

Something I'm confused about - you know those speakers that are included with stereo systems? The wiring and hookup from the speakers to the stereo is different than a standard computer speaker to a computer. With your computer speaker, you have your 1/8'' jack... but with stereo speakers, you...

Has anyone used the Behringer mic100 preamp? I bought mine used, and something I noticed after about 20 minutes of usage is that it heats up... quickly. The whole box becomes extra warm, and I'm wondering if this is normal? At one point I was afraid it was going to catch on fire... :confused...

I can't find the right forum to post this in, but this is the closest I could come to... My question, are there tutorials (whether it be free online, something you have to purchase, etc.) that have audio examples of different effects being applied? Like a dry recording of some guy singing, and...

I'm looking for a good mixer with built in effects, and I stumbled upon this one... Behringer UB1222FX... It's about $180, whereas you can get a cheaper version without the effects for about $100. My question - if anyone's ever played around with this mixer, are the effects any good, or is there...

I've heard nothing but good about the SM57 dynamic mic... Well, for the most part. With all the good about it, I'm wondering, how does it fare against a condensor microphone? I hear about all these studio having SM57's, but it's a dynamic microphone, which by no means do I mean that it should...

I'm planning on buying a Behringer Eurorack UB802 Mixer... But, I have a feeling I'm going to encounter some problems. I'm getting a condensor mic, and I want to plug the condensor mic into phantom power, and then plug that into a compressor/limiter, and then all that into a mixer... But, the...

I have an M-Audio Fast Track USB audio interface (Say that five times fast)! Right now I'm using a dynamic microphone (Audio-technica cardioid dynamic mic), and the noise is... quite present at times. :confused: . I can't figure out if it's the fast track that's causing the noise, or if it's the...

I just posted, but I have another question... which is not exactly on the same topic. Anyway, say we found a nice bass drum sample, and we want it to sound really heavy (eg. Lie to Me by Daniel Powter). Just simply raising the LOW on the EQ values causes horrible distortion, and adjusting all...

Hey all, I know this questioned has been posted many times, but just curious to see if anyone found anything good by now... Anyone have any suggestions for *realistic* drum samples (or sample sets), preferrably recorded from actual drumsets? I've found a few online, but none of them were...

Hey all, How do you guys approach writing lyrics? I usually just pick a topic, try to extract all emotions from it, write down some words and lines that pop into my mind, and then tween everything together. Works quite well. Then others just write down sporadic, random verses that make no...

:eek: It's that simple of a fix!?!? I took your advice and it works... wow... I've been struggling with this problem forever, so I always just copied the left channel and pasted it into the right, but this way is much simpler... Thanks so much!!!!!!!! :) :) :)

Just a personal preference I suppose, but wouldn't it be so much easier and of much higher quality to record directly to your pc rather than to the TASCAM? And if you want to record to the TASCAM because it has four tracks and you can record a different drum on each track, you could also...

There's so many different packages you can use to record your guitar playing... but it all depends on your budget. I would recommend Cool Edit Pro (Which is now named Adobe Audition if I can remember correctly), or you can even use simpler packages like Cakewalk. Off the top of my head, I can't...

Awesome, thanks so much! :) :) This was my biggest concern with the fast track! Now I know I won't need to return it... heh

Hey... I have a problem... Probably a newb question, but one that's quite frustrating :confused: ... When I play my elec guitar, it sounds awesome on my pc, but when I record, the quality is altered and it only records on one channel (left). Why is this? I know to truly record in stereo, you...

Hey all... So I just went out and purchased an M-AUDIO fast track USB interface, and although I've gotten some alright results with recording, I have a question.. I have a dynamic mic, and soon am going to purchase a condensor mic (along with phantom power :) ), but in the manual and on the...

Hey all, I have HORRIBlE noise with my Soundblaster Live 24-bit card when anything is plugged into the mic slot. I can't record because the noise is too loud, and I can't seem to do anything to ease it down... Does anyone have this same problem with this same card? And also, I want to...
